...endured with your head up. Ophelia wastes no time climbing in after Kit. It's not an ideal shelter but it will serve them well. Her fingers have gone stiff with frost, and peeling away the three layers of gloves is especially tedious. At least with the Traveler's Light, no...

The snowfall is a sheer sheet of blinding white so dense that it's impossible to see beyond Kit. As far as Ophelia's concerned, the rest of the world has ceased to exist. On the upside, she can't see high how they've climbed or how far they'll fall. Gravity's a cage best...
kit did surprisingly well in severe weather conditions, running around the woods for most of their life probably had its benefits. from the burning sun to the freezing cold, the hunter remained by ophelia's side without complaint... even if the climb made them feel sore. +

...offered Kit a hand up. Every time she looked down she feared they might be gone, but the glint of their visor always found her, and now was no exception. They won't make it much further in this conditions. This cliffside burrow will have to pass for shelter.

Starter for @matterscourge 🫶 The day was bad enough when the sun was out, when it turned sheer ice walls into slippery footholds, when its light burned holes through her gloves. Layers upon layers of dense fabric had plenty of sweat to wick away, until the sun fell behind a...

...styles what remains with fluffing and brushing and another treatment of moisturizer. In the end it's a perfectly decent haircut. Ophelia's sure there's ways to make it better but by then the supper bell is ringing. "You look fine," she says, as she gathers her tools.

...she's seated exactly as needed. Only then does Ophelia take a section of hair between her fingers and snip. That's all it is for a while: melodic snipping. She puts as much care into this as she would her own braids. Once the first layer is done she cuts a little more, and...

"I've only ever cut my own hair. Let me think." Ophelia's not about to chicken out but she'll aim for something simple. Enough off the ends to remove the brittle hairs, which are twice as prominent without knots to distract her. She uses both hands to turn Gwenn's head until...
Gwenn takes in a single, pinecone-shampoo-scented breath before sitting up. Water runs from her hair down her back in droplets and rivers, and she knows she's going to have to change clothes before making it to supper, but that was probably a given no matter what. She sits... +

...settles in that it dawns on Ophelia: she's never cut someone else's hair before. It didn't seem like a problem until now, as she stares at Gwenn in tense silence, contorting the image in her mind to fit this new perspective. It doesn't come easily and before long this...

"We're nearly done. Sit up." Luckily the cleaning was the hard part. Now that Gwenn's hair is brushed and weighed down with water, it'll be less temperamental. The bench isn't exactly comfortable but there's no point in moving rooms. Supper approaches. It's only as Gwenn...
It's a long process, but the longer it takes, the more proof that this was something absolutely necessary. Gwenn's hair was a mess, tangled and dying of neglect, and Ophelia's struggles manages to bring it back to a state that feels more manageable, and Gwenn only has to grit...+

The knots make the first part of this haircut grueling. Ophelia does her best to work them without too much tugging but at times it cannot be helped. A few particularly terrible ones have to be cut out. She's careful to remove only as much as necessary and the rest is lathered...
Deadlines like suppertime aside, time is of no consequence; it's nice to even be able to have time to spend doing something like this. Gwenn helps with what she can, but this is a scene Ophelia's setting, and so she simply follows her instructions, moving what she indicates... +

Let's see if I even eat one. (she's going to nibble on bits of cheese)
( she has nothing to worry about, kit can make her one with cheese and chicken. a bountiful meal ) i've got plenty of chicken, so i can make more if you want seconds! ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )
