[Jezebel watches with a fatalistic fascination when the needle slips in, determined to keep still and calm until he knew what was going to happen.
And then the plunger descends and it is immediately very, very clear what is going to happen. The potion sets his veins alight with pain as its pumped in, and he lets out a small, sharp noise as it slips into him and burn through his arm.
It's not even a second before he can trace his own blood with the way it flows up to his shoulder, pulsing with agony as it floods into his chest and his head. When it reaches his heart and his head, he lets out a stricken noise and catches himself on the table, knocking over some of the vials of potion as he struggles to stay upright.
But it burns, oh God, it burns and it hurts and it's everywhere and it's inside his body and it takes all his strength not to try to scratch it out. He shakes and goes pale and wild-eyed while he tries to keep himself steady, but the potion doesn't weaken as it courses through him, and it's all he can do not to scream.]
