★ WHEN MY HEART IS MADE FROM GOLD AND FORGIVENESS SEEMS TOO BOLD
ooc bam, knocked out my ooc task and weekly task (ish?) in one. Two birds with one stone yeeT
“Arion, non habent tempus huius,” Hazel grumbled around her paintbrush.
The task she had taken on was a lot more difficult than she had anticipated, especially since she didn’t have Pele’s help this time around. Now she had to do double the work. Which, to be perfectly honest, she didn’t mind, because it was distracting from the tiring track that was playing on a loop in her brain. Weak, The track mocked. useless, replaceable, waste of space. Better off staying out of everyone’s way.
“Shut up,” Hazel mumbled to nobody. Nobody tangible, anyway.
Bastille had asked her to paint the floor of the bunker similar to the basement floor in the observatory, and she had willingly complied. Willingly complied for special reasons, hm? And oh, she recognized that voice.
Stubbornly, Hazel elected to ignore the girl in her brain. Instead she focused on her task, on drawing a line from dot to dot with as few mistakes as she could manage and telling herself to quit being so sad. Margaery was back! And alive! And it was great! And -
“Arion!” Hazel yelped, startled and growing increasingly frustrated with her colt. Ever since her fall and panic attack, Arion really hadn’t let her out of his sight. At first, it had been sweet, but then he had started following her into places too delicate for colts with knobby knees and clumsy hooves.
Like a bunker with paint jars.
This was the fourth time the Thoroughbred had knocked into one of the paint jars. Luckily, the ones he had bumped were already empty. But this one...this one was full, and it was massive. Arion probably hadn’t meant to; he was splayed out on his side, fast asleep; it was just bad spacial planning, because a couple inches away from his hooves stood the paint jars. And Hazel had forgotten that Arion kicked in his sleep - violently.
Therefore, now there was shattered glass and glowing paint everywhere, including Hazel and Arion. The colt’s entire left side was covered in it, whereas Hazel was just paw-deep and splattered with it. She couldn’t decide if she wanted to cry or yell, because now she had to completely re-do the floor. And that was only if she could get the paint up before it dried. Goddammit, she was too tired for this.
She watched with a flat, unamused expression as Arion proceeded to scramble to his feet and vigorously shake his entire body, flinging paint at the walls.
