open; tldr, shirley is asleep

[thenobledie]

[a point has finally come - that shirley needs the rest she has refused at others' insistence. and when she sits for only the second time in several days, the pops and cracks of her joints are too audible. but an painfully throbbing headache doesn't make that noise any more pleasant; her forehead feels as though it is about to split open. soa, she can feel every muscle in her body screaming, too.

she considers dematerializing, but then, she would just feel the pain deeper - no point to waste her magic, either. it's nothing serious, and others will need it, as survivors push through the wreckage. it's familiar, anyway, and in a way that is satisfying. she was meant for this.

if shirley had it in her, if the weight of others' suffering were not upon her, she would laugh. because this is what belzac had meant, and the realization burns a cool shame through her. how had she forgotten?

(she can't say she really minds, though. it's purpose and one so much better than the idleness of her shrine.)

but for now, she rests. really rests as

[thenobledie]

[what, it's so easy...]

I see.

[in her arms, annalee stirs a little, but shirley keeps her attention to ezio.]

[manscruff]

[ for you, maybe!

he only shrugs. ]

[thenobledie]

[KEEP NOTES, THEN.

she tilts her head slightly, considering. but still, she is going to be equally stubborn as he is.]

You should rest.

[manscruff]

[ crying ;w; ]

I will.

[ he gives her a mild look. ]

[thenobledie]

[/holds?]

Otherwise, the little shadow may wear you out when she sees you again.

[but hey, she is turning completely and starting to walk away. annalee needs a bed, goddamn.]

[manscruff]

[ /crawls under couch.... ]

[ WELL OKAY, guess she wins this. that was totally a shut down. gonna strut off now. and finally get some decent sleep... per doctor's orders. ]
