You know how there's all sorts of movies with pirates plugging scurvy dogs through the heart or the head or whatever despite only having one eye? Or sword-fighting like Errol Flynn at his finest without so much as disturbing their eyepatch?
Ever notice how those movies never show you all the time said pirates spent getting used to doing that stuff with half the vision they had before?
Wells is out back, slowly growing more and more frustrated. Intellectually he knew that setting up the target range and having a go at it with his pistol would be a more difficult experience than usual, since half his head is currently bandaged and patched to a degree that the last Spartan home in 300 would recognise. On a gut level that hadn't quite sunk in. It's sinking in now, and it's sinking in fast, because his marksmanship stinks- not to mention that he's getting a wicked headache, and everything between his nose and his right ear is beginning to itch in an all-too-familiar, mustn't-scratch-even-a-little-bit fashion. He'd go do football instead, but he has a feeling that would turn out even worse than his currently pathetic shooting.
Stupid bloody dominant eye. Stupid Cybermen.
