Cuts

Any cut made by a sharpe object counts.

The cut itself may be long or short, and a lot of times, without consequences, but sill, a good source for many other tropes.

 * Ep 11: Facing this new enemy, hurt and confused, Allen Walker is attacked with a bunch of pointy candles, one of them cutting his eye and falling to the ground stained with blood after. It's not shown the injured clearly because his hair is covering it, but it sure is bleeding a lot.
