♖ ;;;))))))
My muse has recently been in an accident that has left them blind. Send me ♖ for what they would say to yours when our muses meet next.
Mairead hated not being able to see, because it meant she couldn’t work, and without work to keep her busy, she thought too much about what was happening around her- she could hear the scuffling of the other nurses, the cries of wounded men, men she was supposed to be helping- but there was nothing she could do about it.
She still wondered what exactly had happened, that she, a nurse who was supposed to be kept out of harm’s way, should end up unable to see. Where was the fairness in that?
She heard footsteps approaching the cot where she’d spent the last few days, trying to put names to voices before someone took her hand in theirs. “Who’s there?” she asked, her fingers searching for the other’s sleeve, as if that might help her tell who had come to sit by her. “Well?”
