Thank you, my darling! There is so much foreshadowing going on here, this whole fic is practically all foreshadowing-- and setting up themes. And yes, I love what you've pointed out with the injuries, him causing them and then trying to heal them. Also the fact that his injuries are so carefully placed and so well thought out, even this early on, I dunno, I gives me strange and shivery (and slightly wrong) feels...
