> what was the bad spot you left her in? Ditching her in a heist gone south?
Something like that. Not really your finest moment.
> phone a friend to tell them about the cool free knife you found
You shift a little, painfully, to wiggle your phone out of your pocket. As far as people to call go, you've got some options.
MERRITT is your best friend, your only ex you're on good terms with, and a skilled hitman. He could probably just give you stitches himself - he's good at shit like that. Only problem is, he's been living in bumfuck nowhere, an hour outside of Sentiment City (where you are). Something about the job he's been assigned. If you can find a stopgap solution to keep yourself from bleeding out in the meantime, he's probably your best bet for getting patched up discreetly.
YELENA is your other best friend as well as your adoptive sister. She's a hitwoman who used to work with you and Merritt, who is now a manager at a nearby joint called the Silver Moon and Casino. She could probably set you up with a good mob doctor, but she might not be happy about you bringing your mess to her doorstep. Your boss doesn't know what happened to Yelena after she went AWOL, and word of her helping you out might get around.
ÁNGEL is your twin sibling, who also happens to be an employee of Yelena's at the Silver Moon - a lounge singer. The two of you are fairly estranged, considering the different career paths you've taken, but you've never quite fallen out of touch, and you've been texting semi-frequently since your move to the city. She could probably find you a reputable doctor, but wouldn't be happy about being dragged into criminal business.
ROSIE is an information broker who you're on vaguely friendly terms with, and have used as a source before. He could probably find you a doctor (reputable or not) in the city, but you'd have to pay him for his time, and find a way to get there on your own. He's also a freelancer for the most part, and might spill to his other clients that you're in town and injured.
ADAM is your boss's secretary and right hand man. He doesn't like you. You think he's kind of a dick. He's can use the syndicate's resources and connections to help you out when you're in trouble, but you weren't hurt on official crime business or whatever, so he might drag his feet about it. Also, you're kind of excommunicated right now, so he might not help you at all.
SIOBHAN is your boss, the head of the crime syndicate you work for, and the reason you're in the city to begin with. You're not in her good graces, and you haven't been for a little over a year, thanks to a small conflict of interest she found out about. She gave you, Merritt, and Yelena each a job that would get you back into her good graces. You've been putting off that job for about three months. You really do not want to call and be asked for updates.
Relationship squares marked in black indicate relationships that are devoted, friends who will generally drop other obligations to help you, help regardless of compensation, and/or help to the best of their ability. Squares in grey indicate transactional relationships, people who you may need to pay or promise something to before receiving help. Squares in red indicate hostile relationships.
