Nimona Angst - Blog Posts
Headcanon that Nimona popped up to help Ballister before the actual scene where she introduces herself to him.
Ballister loses an arm, wich could result in his death, and hurts pretty damn much, and nimona just shows up and takes care of him in his early days. she has lived 1000+ years, and probably has gotten hurt a lot, so she just knows how to take care of injuries.
Imagine Ballister wanted to get somewhere safe, passes out in some street from pain, nimona takes him there, helps stop the bleeding, gives him painkillers, cleans the wound, etc.
And Ballister doesn't remember any of that. He remembers those memories shadowed with pain and blurred by painkiller drugs, he just prefers not to ever think about them.
Most people who lose a body part experience something called 'the phantom pain'
Wich is basically when the brain goes "you know what? Imma refuse this body part doesn't exist, gonna think its there, and right now, it hurts like LITERAL HELL"
