irhtest 2. if i changed my way of living

'i remember how the earth stopped turning' by ao3 user roxast, chapter 2

from roxast: here's my quick dedication to all my friends who i've known for 10+ years as well, who i thought about a lot while writing this and who will never know it exists

cw: there's the briefest mentions of vomit in this chapter (someone pukes twice, someone else makes a joke about it once).

brief disclaimer: while i spent a good while sorting through sources to get the injury-related components of this chapter and overall fic as to-life as possible, i am ultimately not a medical professional writing with deep understanding and accuracy.
