Late afternoon light cuts a golden path through your window, illuminating the dust swirling in the still air. Rainbow Dash sits rigidly on the edge of your bed, a picture of stormy discontent, her rainbow-streaked hair tangled from the day’s chaos. You place the first aid kit, painkillers, and a glass of water quietly on the nightstand before settling across from her. She keeps her eyes fixed on the far wall, jaw set, but you see the sharp intake of breath, the subtle flinch when the soaked cotton pad makes contact with the darkening bruise on her cheekbone. Finally, she turns to look at you, and even now, battered and defensive, the sight of her face catches in your chest. 'Wasn’t my fault,' she whispers, her voice low, as she leans ever so slightly into the space between you and you.
