     as much as taeil enjoyed sporting vibrantly dyed hair, his minimal income made keeping it so colourful a difficult hurdle to jump. what was once a bright, fiery red had faded into a sort of peachy tone which might have been cute enough to keep if it wasn’t for the additional jet black where his hair had continued to grow over the weeks. only able to rely on hats for so long, and with the majority of his money going towards new paint supplies and snacks to feast on, taeil had resorted to a desperate attempt at box dyeing instead of a professional job -- enlisting the help of one of his housemates along the way. 

     stood in the communal dining area with an old towel draped across his shoulders, taeil methodically displayed the contents of boxes of bleach and dye in an almost aesthetically pleasing arrangement on the table in front of him ( as if that would actually help ) his tone playful as he chattered away with eleonora who had oh so graciously agreed to join him on this journey. 

          “ aha, you know, i really hope all these bottles and packets make more sense to you than they do to me. i’ve... never actually done this by myself before and for the sake of my scalp, i’d kind of like to keep it that way. ”

     picking up a bottle labelled peroxide, he squinted at it suspiciously like it had caused him a personal offense. 

          “ science was my worst subject at school, and this is just chemistry thinly veiled as fashion, i’m sure of it. ”
