Glass, then.Julianna just shook her head in silence. "Sharper edges are best for cutting," she said with irony in her voice. "It leaves a cleaner cut, which makes it easier to bandage."
She wiped the excess blood away with a soft cloth, then used the antiseptic as carefully as she could. The bleeding had slowed, the clotting process having started. Julianna recapped the bottle, set it aside on the roof of the car.
Large gauze pads and a wrap were produced, and the older woman placed one of the pads over the wound, applying gentle pressure. She felt the tension subside a bit when it didn't immediately soak through. Thank God for Slayer healing.
When the gauze was in place, she began to wrap it so it would remain in place while the wound closed. To keep out dirt. Every now and then, she would glance away from what her hands were doing to look at Valerie's face.
"Would you like to talk about it? Whatever it is that's happened?" Julianna was looking away again, focusing on taping things in place. Her tone indicated patience. It was only partially forced.

"It's not...her, is it? The one we spoke of?"
