[Despite several decades of sliding needles into people's skin (and having it done to himself a few times, he likes to know what he's dishing out), what happened with the Legislator has given him some kind of a... horror of it. He remembers the noise of it, the feeling of it, and the sick, deep pain every time he thinks about putting a needle into another person now.
Maybe it'll be easier when he knows he can just shut the book and leave it behind for a while.]
[It's also just kind of harder to hurt himself than to be hurt, but he's trying, because he wants to help. Daniel will get another photo, and this time the needle is in, wove under the skin and out, like a pin on a shirt. There's a bit of blood.]
[The trickle of blood makes him feel a little dizzy, which is odd. He's never minded the sight of blood before. He breathes through it, refusing to look away. It's just blood. It's the tiniest hole, just skin deep. Jamie's not going to die of it, he's not going to give his position away to the Hunters - it's fine. They're both fine. But maybe it would feel better if he could be there, patching him up and taking care of him.]
Do you want me to come over and see if I can manage it?
[He frankly didn't expect Daniel to want to get involved, he expected this to just be a show. But if he wants to come, Jamie will trust that he's ready for it.]

Any thoughts on location? Or should I handle it for now?

[He knows it's probably the easiest to do, but he really doesn't think he can take it and fuck he feels so weak thinking that.
But he's gonna let the request stand. He gets to be weak sometimes.]
chest would look good

On the one hand, that's the shit he likes. On the other hand... he can feel it digging into his stomach, sharp and deep. Ugh.
No, he's going to get over this. Maybe he can fake it until he makes it.]
Lovely, angel. Have you ever tried making what they call an endorphin button?

[In this photo, the first needle's been taken out and a new one inserted elsewhere. He's bleeding from the first mark, but not badly.]
