Day draws (with her finger, or her mage hand) a series of runes over where the injury is, days finger leaves behind faintly glowing lines as she works, the runes describe health, a lack of infection, healing etc. Once day has finished drawing the runes, they stop glowing, but form a series of tattoos over where the injury was, and the injury flows back together. Day must reference her grimoire while drawing, the runes she is drawing will show in her grimoire, and will glow faintly while she is drawing them.
The runes must remain uncovered, this includes cloth, makeup, paint and armor. Hiding the runes is allowed (Holding a briefcase by your leg so that the runes cant be seen is allowed). Generally, if the person who is marked could be considered to be "wearing" the covering, it is not allowed.
Day has some control over where the runes end up, if she is healing a lot of minor injuries, she can concentrate the runes somewhat, and she can move the runes slightly from the original position (to avoid situations that would be...pornographic).

Called for and slipping out from behind Grace’s head like an ash-black Cheshire, Horatio comes padding silently from behind the girls' head, down to their arms. A quick swipe of his claws, and a wound is opened- but on Obedience’s arm, not Grace's. The girls drip the ethereal blood into the mouth of the target, sharing the substance free of all physical impurities and full of life that won't quit to cleanse them. The target glows faintly blue from their throat, to their chest, to their stomach as their body is cleansed, but the process is not complete until 15 minutes later when they spit up blackened, viscous and diseased-saturated fluid.
If Grace needs to clear an area of disease, she may have Horatio cut a bit deeper so that she can walk a spiral, dripping blood that soaks into the ground and cleanses it just as well. This is an effect partially left over from Obedience's time as a tree, learning root systems and what it means to be connected to the heartbeat of the ground.
Pesticides, maggots, lockjaw… there is no room for restrictive impurities in Grace’s body. They were sick of it, literally and metaphorically, so they found the cleanest thing they’d always have and made use of it. Blood that never darkens or catches disease, blood that embodies will and aid. Obedience will heal- she needs only herself to do so. Horatio has the short end of the stick with his guilt, but even that is temporary.
