ridden all the way through with insomnia, so tired she feels transculent, astynome walks to the pond with nothing but frayed nerves in her clenched fists.
sleep had never come easy for her. today she had no choice but to wear those bloodshot eyes, the swollen face. she wasn't sure why and when this had started; only that it had gotten worse. she's sitting on her feet, waiting for the world to come into focus. it would be a long wait.
gracious looks grey in the halflight like all things do, but she gets the feeling that she would be just as grey in the sun. a monochrome photograph, developing in the dark.
the siren's scent still lingers in the back of her skull. wherever memories like that are kept. she digs her hands in the dirt, waiting for it to feel like home. all the anankes of the world and their melkors. astynome could recognise a pattern from a thousand paces away.
