I post on here semi-often, and normally said posts are rather trivial and/or relatively...eh... Conservative? lol However, this time I need some information on something a tad more brutal.
Okay, so, here's a little background so you can better understand my reason for seeking your insight:
My female protagonist has to go chasing after her dog in the rain and stumbles upon an injured fey in the forest. Well, to be honest, injured is a slight understatement. He's missing his heart. And still functioning, as crazy as that sounds. Although, to be fair, he is almost completely immobile. I just need to know realistically--overlooking the fact that he's still alive while, for lack of a better term, being heartless--how would the wound be acting while he speaks, moves, etc.? Would it be spurting, dripping, what? All the gory details, please.
I know this is a rather strange and...grisly, but I want the scene to be as realistic as possible, although granted it's completely implausible. But hey, he's fey, so I'm taking some artistic liberties. Any other ideas and/or additions would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank-you for your time!
