A few hours ago The Juno Incident occurred. Heart was locked in her room sobbing, Mind was healing and Soul was PISSED. Even though the winged one couldn't truly cry, she damn tried her best to. her hands clawing the insides of her eyes, the remains sticking to her fingers and pooling down slowly to the floor drop by drop. She choked and screamed into her hands. Feeling the cold air fly into her empty eye sockets, Soon trying to stand only to fall with a scream as her door suddenly slams open.

[ Juno. ]

She trembled in a reoccurring fear, god Mind's voice was deep as shit now. Mind's eyes widened in absolute disgust over Heart's situation, Blood and broken nerves surrounding her body and dripping down her white hoodie.

[ You are fucking disgusting. ]

Apollo walked closer, grabbing Artemis's arm and yanking. almost popping it right out of its socket. Heart bit her cheek to mask a yelp while being dragged out of her room, banging her head against the frame in the process.

( W-where the fuck are you taking me—? Leave me the hell alone!..)

She tried to move away, but to no avail. The blind one began to recognize where they were, the feeling of humid air and the smell of shampoo.. they were in the bathroom, Hearts wing twitched and fluttered.

[ Souls making me wash you up, she's too busy whining. Hurry up. ]

Mind turned around, looking at the door behind her, Juno tensed and cautiously took her hoodie off.

( Can you turn around or something?. I don't want you staring at my as-)

[ IM FACING THE DOOR. ]

Heart would've eyerolled at that, but due to the recent loss of sight she kinda.. couldn't.

After tossing her T-shirt away she called to Mind, feeling around for the bathtub and cautiously sitting inside. The Sun turned the water on, watching as Heart began to squeal and flop around in fear and agony as the overwhelmingly cold water touched her skin.

Apollo found it fuckin' hilarious but kept her mouth shut, grabbing Heart and lifting her out of the tub. Bending down and waiting for the water to warm up.

Heart held her legs and waited.

( Y'know you're an asshole for that, yeah? )

[ Keep whining. ]

( I think I will. )

A few minutes later, it was finally warm enough for The Moon to not be a professional yapper about. Heart stepped into the tub and sat down, Mind grabbing a cloth and beginning to pour body wash onto it.

Hearts body was a gross sight for The Mind, pimples all over her back and a whole field of dead skin after a few wipes on the arms, Apollo had taken a notice to the self-harm cuts and claws but stayed quiet about it. only letting out a quiet hum. The sun began to wash Hearts chest, and stomach making the blind ones body twitch a bit.

The Moon was on edge, even though the cloth felt hypnotizing against her skin she could barely focus and relax. What if Mind just ripped her wings out? Stabbed her in the back?

[ Quit being so tense, your shoulders are stiff. ]

Before Heart could respond, The Sun put the cloth on the edge of the bathtub, grabbing Hearts head and dunking it under the water. The Moon gasping and rubbing her face afterwards. Some of the water pouring out of her eyeholes.

[ Calm down, im washing your hair. ]

Apollo squirted shampoo onto her hand, rubbing and gently yanking Artemis's hair as her fingers ran through the greasy oily curls of the other.

[ How long has it been since you washed your damn hair? ]

( .. A few week— )

[ EW. ]

Mind immediately squirted a shit ton of shampoo into Juno's hair, roughtly 'cleaning' the others head as she hissed and yelled from the random, unexpected agression from the logical one.

~~~ ♡ ~~~

Heart sat on the stool with a large towel wrapped around her body and hair, a small smile on her face while she listened to Mind plug the hair dryer in, Apollo taking the towel off her head and beginning to blow dry Hearts hair. Occasionally moving the blowdryer away and aiming it at hearts face, causing Juno to jerk and make noises, which was hilarious to see.

After Sun finished, she put everything back. leading Heart back to her room. Helping her change her clothes and lay in bed.

It would take a while for Heart to adapt to her blindness, and it would take a while for Mind to deal with her new voice aswell.

but they would get through it

together <3
