Hmm, well I doubt many medications are injected directly into the eye in most worlds. [The only way that it worked was because Shimmer healed injuries so quickly. A drop of it could help heal some life threatening injuries. Still, his eye was unique, which was why he played so heavily into it. Every time he injected it, he was reminded of the choice of that day.] Not taking it would be much worse in terms of pain.
[He offered Richard a closer inspection of the dispenser even as his other hand remained on his lover's hip. His thumb caressed the swell of the hip even as his eyes moved to regard the burnt hand as it was revealed.]
