“Lilith?” Beatrice asks when the cadence of Lilith’s steps approaching is not quite right.
“It’s fine—“
“It’s not fine! Sister Agatha shot you!”
Beatrice turns to find Camila flitting around Lilith’s taller frame half panicked. Lilith has torn off her sleeve to dress the flesh wound on her upper arm.
“It’s fine. Just grab something before I bleed all over the floor.”
Beatrice frowns at the linens she’s just finished folding, concerned Camila will tear them apart for bandages.
“Perhaps if you explained what happened,” Beatrice suggests as she removes her wimple to staunch the bleeding.
“The gun misfired while she was unloading it. It’s only a graze.”
“I see.”
“Thanks for this,” Lilith says taking the wimple. “It’ll get me to the infirmary without making a mess.”
“Nobody is worried about a mess; we’re worried about you!” Camila insists, exasperated. Lilith considers her for a moment.
“I am worried about a mess, though. Blood is difficult to get out of slate if it sets—“
“Argue about it in the infirmary; they will be expecting you,” Beatrice further suggests.
“True. Thanks again, Beatrice.”
“How do you know blood is difficult to get out of slate? Why is it difficult to get out of slate? Is that what the floors are, slate?…”
Beatrice listens to Camila quiz Lilith down the hallway, smiling gently in spite of herself. Lilith will be confused for days by Camila’s concern; Beatrice will have to gently remind Mary not to tease her.
regularly scheduled anon camilith submission thank you very much, it made my mood while rotting away at the airport
lilith, of course she'd be confused at the statement of "nobody is worried about the mess, we're worried about you", with that kind of family and upbringing i would also not know or understand the feeling of genuine care and worry about me as my own person. she's extra awkward now, because a social interaction is one thing, but a social interaction with someone who seems to so openly and admittedly care for you is a whole other. thats unfamiliar and almost scary (what if i disappoint her, what if i mess up, what if what if). and then, right in front of her there's camila whos just such a kind, attentive person
unstoppable force vs. unmovable object huh?
beatrice watching them interact must be like "im glad lilith managed to make a new friend after so long :)" and then mary and shannon just share the look of "whos gonna tell her" but i just love bea, she's so!! nice!! she's just out there observing and being nice! i love her!

steve takes eddie to the beach, so they can watch the sunset
what eddie 'doesn't' know, is that steve is planning on proposing
when eddie starts walking back to steve's car, steve grabs his hand
eddie: what do you think you're doing?
steve: just... stand right there. robin? is it on?
robin, who is holding a phone: go!
eddie: HA! YOU'RE PROPOSING, AREN'T YA? I KNEW IT. YOU DON'T RANDOMLY TAKE ME TO THE BEACH TO WATCH A SUNSET.
steve: eddie, when i met-
eddie: skip the speech, put the ring on my finger.
steve:
eddie: are you just gonna stand there?
steve: JESUS, MUNSON, LET ME FINISH MY SPEECH
eddie: it's about to be harrington
steve: FINE, HAVE THE RING.
steve very aggressively slides the ring onto eddie's finger
eddie: now you can say your speech
steve: that's... THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS
robin: steve, just spit it out
steve: THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS!

steve: oh, it's 4am. time to get up!
eddie: if you get out of this bed, i will actually hurt you.
steve: you should come with me! we could do a morning jog together! robin said we need to be more "#couple goals"
eddie: what?
steve: she said-
eddie: ever.
steve: THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR
eddie: OH, REALLY? THEN, STOP GETTING UP BEFORE THE SUN!
steve: it's healthy. you told me that i should start doing things for myself more, and this is one of those things.
eddie: can't you do it at like 10?
steve: no. i like the dark. it's relaxing.
eddie: okay, well it's dark in here.
steve: i need to feel the cold air on my face.
eddie: plug the fan in.
steve: i want to run.
eddie: steve.
steve: be supportive of me!
eddie: i love you, i do, but when you wake up at 4 in the morning, i really hate you.
steve: come on. it's not that bad.
eddie: 'not that bad'? STEVE, THE SUN ISN'T EVEN AWAKE YET. THAT'S A SIGN THAT YOU SHOULDN'T BE EITHER.
steve: FINE.
eddie: FINE.
steve:
eddie: wait, are you going to that one restaurant? the one with the strawberry pancakes?
steve: i was going to after my run, yes.
eddie: can you like..?
steve: why should i?
eddie: because im your responsibility, and if you don't get me food, i might starve to death.
steve: ohmygod. yes, ill get you pancakes.
eddie: enjoy your run, psychopath.

My #1 post of 2022
eddie, staring at steve: why won't he look at me the way he does with that girl?
nancy: wait. you have a crush on steve?
eddie: was it not obvious?
nancy: ...OH MY GOD, YOU'RE A GENIUS!
eddie: were you talking to yourself or..?
nancy: if we get steve to date you, then i might actually have a chance with robin. it's a win-win. robin said that she couldn't date me a while ago, because she didn't want to hurt steve. is this selfish? if we do this?
eddie: ...i-i don't kn-
nancy: EXACTLY! so, how would we get steve interested?
eddie: um..
nancy: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING! you invite him to a movie, with all four of us, but then robin and i cancel.
eddie: wheeler, are you good-
nancy: we'll get married in fall.
eddie: WHO'S GETTING MARRIED?
nancy: do you want to be my maid of honor? it could be a man of honor, right?
eddie, tearfully: wHAT'S HAPPENING?!
