Working on one's shell (D4, EE, Open)
Posted: Tue Jul 27, 2021 7:20 pm
After a tiresome start, and despite troublesome news, the rest of the day had been... relatively slow. Which was frustrating, in a way, but also gave Blai a chance to work quietly for some time. He should probably try to open up and talk to some more people... he was here to represent his house, after all. But these crowded events were so hard on him...
So instead of that, he went to a calm place on the fields outside, dressed only in simple clothes, the usual cargo clothing he used while exploring in front of him, and set to work on it. He seemed very focused on his work, trying to add some thickness to plasteel strips in parts of the clothing while keeping them flexible...
... but it seemed hard. Way too hard. After some time, and rather frustrated, he gives up, the plasteel he'd been trying to use scattered in pieces around him. He took a deep breath. He could try again later.
For now, though, he could do with a walk. As he did, he kept thinking. He ought to open up and talk to people...
