Obviously, Evie was taken to the hospital asap after the whole being stabbed thing, but Gage knew he couldn't afford a hospital bill so he ended up doing his own stitches on his nose. Who needs anesthesia when you have tequila? (actually no don't do that it is a very bad idea)

ALSO interesting story about this illustration! I drew this a couple weeks ago, August 25th to be exact. It just so happens that exactly a year ago on August 25th, I had drawn Gage getting the scar on his nose, and a year later, without realizing what the date was, I drew this of him stitching himself back up. A little creepy coincidence :V
