TW bloodBloody got a blood nose on the bus. Nobody around. I carry a gigantic arse backpack around with me which contains everything I could ever need while on a trip, except, crucially, tissues...

Managed to get it under control with a head tilt though, but my face and hands didn't fare too well without tissues, and I probably looked like either a murderer, or a murderee. Ended up having to rip pieces off of a letter I forgot to take out of my bag and wet them with my water and use that to try and clean myself up a bit. Absolutely looked like a crackhead in the process, half surprised I didn't get kicked off

Finally got off at a train station and started trying to properly clean up and apparently bumped my nose a bit too much so the whole thing started again. No fucking toilet paper. Sink that's permanently stuck on really hot for some reason. I heard a line forming and ended up hobbling down the stairs to the customer service desk while holding my nose and looking at the roof, and asked the PSOs for some tissues, they didn't have any but said there was a better toilet down the end of that platform which did have toilet paper. Managed to get it under control but what a wild adventure. Also stole some toilet paper should my nose break on the way back

No clue what caused it, it just decided to happen at the most inconvenient time possible๐Ÿ™ƒ

Edit: rewrote half my comment because Jesus Christ I wasn't making any sense at all
