a honey badger my brother is not
As you may recall, last year around this time my brother was in the hospital with a broken leg. All turned out well, but it was rather more excitement than the Week of the Killer Quizzes really needed. A sentiment with which Elessar apparently doesn't agree. He's once more in the hospital, this time recovering from being bitten by a rattlesnake. (Yes. A rattlesnake.) Fortunately, the snake only appears to have snagged him with one fang and he's responding very well to the antivenin, but his leg is still extremely swollen, so we're not sure how much of an impact this will have on the rest of his summer.

I do feel that these incidents appear to be decreasing in severity, so maybe next year he'll only have gotten a mild concussion. Or, since he seems to be keeping the injuries to his lower legs, maybe he'll trip over barbed wire or get shin splints or something. I don't doubt his ability to discover something creatively painful, that's for sure....

But, to return to today's purpose---Sev, the first parchment! In honor of my brother, of course.... )
