[ She as still feeling fairly weakened from the Glitch. More than she remembers, which she finds really odd. Troubling, if she was going to be honest. When Hawk curls himself around her, she presses herself against him with a soft, mildly panicked groan. ]
I Glitched.
[ She'd already explained about that. About how bad something like that was. So he can probably understand why that's worrying her. There is a decent cut above her left eye that's bleeding. It should have stopped by now, what with her healing abilities. But it hasn't. ]
I got out of bed because Nacho needed to go out and suddenly I was Glitching.
[ She's with her boyfriend. She'll be fine. She doesn't sound fine, though. She sounds worried. Mildly terrified, even. ]
[There were a million things that Hawk wanted to ask her, first of
which was how it was possible for her to suddenly start glitching. She'd
been here for over a year and been perfectly fine but he knew pointing that
out and asking questions she didn't have the answer to weren't going to
help.]
It's going to be okay. I've got you. You dealt with this before, we'll
figure it out.
[Hawk was really fucking scared right now but he wasn't going to
show it. One of them had to try and keep it together.]
We should get that cut on your head bandaged though, it's bleeding pretty
bad.
[ That's why she loves him. Because he knows her well enough to know that asking why something like this was happening, when she had no answer was a bad idea.
At the mention of a cut on her head, she looks at him in confusion. Reaching up to touch a spot that's just registering as sore, she hisses in pain and pulls her hand away. ]
I don't get it. I don't remember doing that, and I don't understand why it's still bleeding.
[Hawk knew Gwen healed fast but he had never timed it before or
anything. He'd seen her come home with some pretty serious injuries that
were partially healed but it wasn't like he'd had a stopwatch going from
when it happened to when he saw them.
[ Gwen shakes her head a moment, regretting the action and closing her eyes tightly. That was a dizzy spell and she wasn't fond. Nacho whines some and heads over to the pair, sitting beside Hawk and whining again. ]
Babe...they're usually healed by now.
[ She takes a moment to close her eyes, tilting her head just a bit to listen. A small frown appears on her face and her shoulders slump some with realization. ]
I don't...I don't think I have my powers right now, Hawk. I can't hear your heartbeat.
[ That was her favorite sound, but now it was missing. ]
Hey, we’re gonna get through this. You’ve been human before. We’ll figure this out.
[He wasn’t sure how they were going to do it but they’d figure out something. They had each other and for Hawk that meant they could get through anything.]
Let’s get that cut cleaned up and bandaged, okay? Then we’ll see if this is happening to anyone else.
[ He was so sure and so steady right now, while Gwen felt like she was falling apart. It definitely was a change and it definitely helped her feel better.
She nods, agreeing that it was a good idea, but then she moves, crawling into his lap and curling her arms around his shoulders and pressing her face against his neck.
She felt incredibly broken right now, and just wanted to be held for a moment or two. That was it. ]
[Hawk was happy to hold her. Gwen was the strongest person he knew and she probably didn’t feel that way right now but he wasn’t worried for her. He wished that it would be easy for her to deal with this but he knew that she would. It just sucked. A lot. A lot a lot a lot. Fortunately Hawk was pretty good at dealing with stuff that sucked, having sucked pretty hard for a portion of his life just before coming here.]
At least it answers one big question… the fact that you’re cute doesn’t come from your spider powers.

Head wounds bleed a lot.
