made a request for Awkwardly Injured!David. Not binding on any verse in particular, just a bit of fun. Christopher =

Even from where he was lying, he could see that the fact that Christopher couldn’t stop laughing was starting to piss Ruby off. It pissed him off to begin with, but he was in too much pain to really do anything about it. Well, that and April was sitting on his back, trying to keep him still while Ruby was dressing the wound. It was an awkward position, but it kept him from getting up and killing Christopher.
“I’m sorry, dude,” he said, between fits of laughter. “I’m sorry, I really am. It’s just-it’s so perfect.”
“Swear to God, Christopher-when I can walk again? I’m gonna fucking kill you.”
Threats of death had never stopped him before and they certainly weren’t going to stop him now. That was a lesson that David had learned the hard way with this guy, and it didn’t stop him from muttering curses under his breath. He could feel the annoyance coming off Ruby in waves however, and he really, really hoped that she didn’t actually kill Christopher, because he had a feeling that that would make things twenty times more complicated than they already were. It was bad enough that he was going to have to be off his feet for a while.
“Hey, jackass,” she growled, turning around to face him, and placing her hands on her hips. “A person who is supposedly your friend was just shot. Think you could manage to show a little respect?”
Christopher sobered mockingly, nodding his agreement, before raising his hand to Ruby in a mock salute. “Yes, ma’am, Nurse Barbie.”
Ruby’s eyes narrowed and she started advancing on him. “What did you call me?”
“I’m sorry-would you prefer Lady General? I’m not sure exactly where demonic bitches fall on the military hierarchy.”
“Hey!” April spoke up from where she was perched on top of David’s back. “Can we deal with David, and the fact that he got shot now, and killing Christopher later?”
Ruby fixed Christopher with one last glare before she turned around and went back to the wound in front of her. She picked up a pair of tweezers-or at least what looked like tweezers, and started to move towards where the wound was. “This is gonna hurt.”
It happened fast enough that he didn’t realize it did till after, but when he did realize it, fuck was he in pain. A litany of curses flew from his lips, and Christopher was collapsing into fits of laughter again, completely ignoring the glare that Ruby and April were sending him as Ruby dressed the wound and April got off David’s back. April slowly made her way over to him, and he looked up at her with a heavy frown.
“Oh, come on-don’t tell me you don’t find this just a little bit funny.”
“He was shot, Christopher.”
“He was shot in the ass, April.”
David just sighed heavily and closed his eyes. “Swear to God-going to fucking kill him.”
“Not if I get to him first,” Ruby shot back.
