       ❛   i’m  FINE,    i swear.    i’ll take care of it.  ❜

“ i have reached an unprecedented level of boredom , and i’m getting slightly hungry so i volunteer the idea that cure both of my ailments for me , please . i don’t want to have to beg , honestly i probably won’t but you should anyways . “ 

The twins didn't necessarily have a dependency on each other. Though, barely anyone could tell that, considering the fact the two identical, red headed girls were rarely seen without the other. Today, however, Minnie found herself alone today. 

Sophie was home sick from school today, leaving the elder twin feeling a sense of mildly loneliness looming through the day. The days had their own rhythms to them, and without her sister? Things felt off. It was a change, but not a completely unwelcome one. For once, rather than  typically playing with her sister and their small group of friends that they had during recess, Minnie approached the jungle gym where the more energy driven kids played.

Clad with her long red hair up on two loose pigtails, and a jean-overall dress over a plain black and white striped long sleeved shirt, Minnie was a bit out of place. At least in terms of being compared to the children that were dressed appropriately for their rough days of playing.

Glancing about the playground, she tried to spot just about anyone she could end up playing with. She could hardly spot anyone else from the same class as her, consider the first grade recess also  coincided with second and third grade recess. Never the shy sort, though, when Minnie finally spotted a familiar face from her own class, she quickly made her way over.

               JASPER  IS  NOT  ONE  TO  ASK  FOR  GIFTS.       in  fact  ,  he’s  returned  more  gifts  from  this  family  than  he’s  accepted.      but  when  it  came  to  alice  ?   …     ❛   you  know  you  don’t  need’ta  get  me  anything  ,  love.   ❜        he  can’t  keep  the  smile  off  his  lips  if  he  TRIED.         she  was  too  kind  –  too  loving.         he  couldn’t  bear  the  idea  of  her  being  unhappy  because  of  him.        a  soft  sigh  escapes  him  before  he  takes  the  gift  ,  gaze  gentle.         when  amber  hues  raise  once  more  to  look  at  the  pixie  before  him  ,  there  is  NOTHING  BUT  TENDERNESS.         he  never  thought  he  could  be this  peaceful  again.          ❛   thank  you  ,  alice.   ❜        there’s  no  false  southern  politeness.     he’s  genuine  with  her  –  not  to  mention  hopelessly  in  love.

             ‘ there is nothing you need to do.   it is not  —  your responsibility to do anything. ’           she cuts her own protests off with a deep breath, ashamed to be crying so openly in front of her younger sister.   tatiana is supposed to be ever the example.    ( only olga sees her crying, on the rare occasions she does so…  but for the most part, tatiana prefers to grieve alone. )    there is no pride in her younger sister comforting her, but at the moment, she almost wishes to give into it  ;;  mashka is so gentle, and tatiana’s broken heart needs gentleness.     but this should not be her sister’s job…  because in the end, there is nothing anyone can do.    war is war, and it takes without remorse, without mercy.   perhaps they are all doomed to be casualties, in some way or another.
