fresh  out  of  the  shower  after  an  eight-hour  gig  downtown,  her  hair  is  dripping  wet  onto  her  t-shirt     (   which  honestly  might  be  her  ex’s  that  she  forgot  to  give  back ,  but  that’s  NOT  her  concern  right  now   )     as  she  rummages  through  the  community  kitchen’s  fridge  for  a  late  night  snack.  a  noise  behind  her  makes  her  flip  on  the  kitchen  lights  ,  hand  still  gripped  around  a  container  of  milk.     “     jesus,  you  scared  me.     ”     thankfully  ,  it’s  not  an  intruder  ,  though  the  other  person  might  as  well  be.  lucky  turns  back  to  the  fridge  ,  replacing  the  milk  and  pulling  out  berries  and  whipped  cream  before  closing  the  fridge  and  sliding  the  container  to  the  middle  of  the  island.   “    hungry   ?   ”   the  femme  questions.   “   there’s  probably  enough  left  to  share.  ”

location: drawing room, the opal manor . timeline: oct 5th, a few hours after gin’s task was announced .

LALEH KNEW SHE should be looking for ginevra’s books --- she was just... a little distracted right now. it had been a couple hours since the amber opal told them what they had to look for, less than that since chloe had suggested they split to cover more ground in less time. almost immediately, she found herself lost in the ancient hallways of the manor, the familiarity she felt every time she entered a room was almost striking. it was almost like she had lived there her whole life, like the manor was hers.

this time, however, she had an excuse to explore --- ginevra’s task had turned the whole place into their playgrounds. she meant to look for the books, she really did, but inside one of the dozens of rooms, there was a piano and she couldn’t really stop herself. so it was only a matter of minutes before she sat in front of the probably untouched instrument. delicately opening it, she gently stoked the keys to see if it was tuned . not that she’d know how to fix it if it wasn’t ), before she adjusted her posture to start playing. the first notes of twinkle twinkle little star had barely started to echo on the mostly empty room when she heard steps behind her. the brunette quickly stopped playing, turning to look at whoever had just appeared with a guilty expression on her face. ❝ i probably shouldn’t be playing the piano right now, huh ? ❞
