Red Flag
Title: Red Flag
Characters/Pairings: Farfarello

Author's Notes: I come late to the party with a shot glass of cheap aftershave; if you've all gone home I can put it in the comments of the prompt post. Also: "In intravenous medical use, to register means to pull blood back into the syringe barrel to find, or show that the needle is in, a vein." (Wiki)
The nurse jabbing him with a needle never knows how close to death she comes. Farfarello checks himself and watches her hands.
“Just making sure we’ve got a vein,” she says in the royal speech of med staff and pulls the plunger back.
Farfarello has seen a lot of blood in a lot of wrong places, much of it his own, but that small red splash in the confines of the glass -
It looks lonely.
He looks away and completely misses the sympathetic pat on the hand the nurse gives him as she pumps the sedative into his blood stream.
