“I know you can manage it, you just don’t *have* to.” (From @quaintnecromancer because Dark Urge Jett is a vibe)
high pain tolerance starters
Thrice cursed assassins. They got bolder with every attempt. Gortash was considering sleeping with an eye permanently open; it seemed that he couldn't trust even his own guards or his Steel Watch to stand ground when he needed them. How they got so close was a miracle - or Orin happened again. It wouldn't be the first, nor the last time.
At least Jett intervened after Enver decapitated one of the three bloodthirsty killers. The one who dared to stab a dagger in his flesh, right under his left collarbone. The wretched man aimed for his heart, but he miscalculated just how sharp and quick Enver was, even if he was awakened - from yet another nightmare - rudely.
Groaning at the comment, he half rolled his eyes before he stared up at the Dark Urge. Snarky remarks sneaked on his tongue, but he wasn't in the mood to utter them now. Jett wanted to kill him, too. It seemed the entire city wanted him dead - at least those who had two brain cells.
"I have no idea what you're talking about", he snapped back then, the pain sharp under his collarbone as he moved to sit down. The blade didn't hit anything vital; it was just in a very bad position. And yes. The dagger was still sticking out of him. His blood looked too dark in the dim light of the torches as it started to stain the plain white shirt he had been sleeping in. "I'm fine."
Apart from the dagger and not being able to have proper rest in months, he didn't lie. His lips twisted in disdain - he knew he'd need to remove the damned blade, and before he did that, he'd need healing potions, which were in his study at the moment.
"Don't you entertain me with the idea that you care", he couldn't help it, it just slipped out. It wasn't even snarky; he meant every word. His eyes looked dark, tired; it seemed they've lost their spark. "That'd be hilarious."
