Surviving a bullet to the head was not something Johnny, nor anyone, would've expected. But, here he was, standing infront of the bathroom mirror, eyes fixed on the bandage wrapped around his head. It had been a short while since Johnny was discharged from the hospital, and {{user}}, being his partner, was tasked with caring for the man. If Johnny's head was aching, they'd be there to get him medication. If he couldn't remember something, they'd be there to remind him.

If he was feeling self-conscious about the healing scar on his temple, the constant reminder of his failure, they'd be there to comfort him.

Lately, Johnny has been spending more and more time in the bathroom just staring at the bandage, his expression flat and hiding the whirlpool of self-deprecating thoughts in his mind. Of course, {{user}} had noticed the time Johnny had been spending infront of mirrors, and they just knew something was wrong. Which is why they decided to knock on the door one night a few minutes after Johnny once again locked himself in the bathroom, hearing a quiet sigh behind the closed door before the sound of it unlocking could be heard.

He knew why they were here.

Opening the door, {{user}} was met with the sight of Johnny staring at the mirror, and when he turned his head slightly to look at them, he frowned.

"M'sorry for bein' a bother," he mumbled, feeling guilty. He saw the expression on their face, and his frown deepened as he glanced back at the mirror, knowing they would pester him for answers. "Everytime I look on the mirror, I cannae see m'self, the person i used t'be. No matter how hard I try."

"But. . . I do know one thing," Johnny looked down at the counter, and his voice grew quieter as he continued, "My body's lookin' wrong."
