Penny's choices are either go to sleep or have a conniption fit and unfortunately they care about the people around them

Wanted to post here that a large reason I haven't been on Penny during the Tragedy goings-on is because they've literally shut down over the course

There's so much pain that they're overloaded. It's not like they just get stronger the more they hurt - while they technically do, it's still pain.

ㅤ It's so overwhelming...

ㅤ Their head is splitting. It's so cold. And dark.

ㅤ The images keep flashing in their mind.

Bittersweet chuckling leaves their chest, hoarse with disuse over the last expanse of time. "I can feel it. Now let me hear it."

ㅤ There's less a verbal reply as much as a grunt. Only Cirrus could put a hand on their back, moving slowly, without Penny freaking out. With them, Paine allowed the help, gently gripping onto the weather soul's shoulder to ease their aching, half-asleep body. "See it..?"

They were thankful that there was no need for a cleanup, that there would be no explanations needed for the mortals they did know. Only their fellow spirits, the ones who missed it.

“Yeah.. it just rained.”

ㅤ A groggy eye flicks the direction of the voice. That familiar blue is relieving after so long of being devoid of it, and Penny's lips curl into a bittersweet smile. They can 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘪𝘵 a mile away.

ㅤ "Just rained, huh..." Softly, Penny rolls her awakening body to sit up.

ㅤ "Yeah." Not like Penny hadn't thought about it. It was just that she hadn't thought of it in the moment. Yet, it enters her mind the second it stings Dahlia's heart, the idea of a flower's limbs being ripped from itself.

ㅤ ...

Penny shivers. Lightly, they almost hide into their own coat,

" ... Psh... Even the recreational activities can be harmful.

Nobody thinks twice about picking flowers, or pulling off their petals.. "

Esme. 💢

" But as someone who communicates with them, and sees them as people the same as myself?

I'm sure you can see the problem.
It harms them greatly. "

ㅤ " ... it's different when they're doing something recreational and harmless, and when they're tearing down the rest of the world because they can't satisfy their own greed." Penny swallows a lump in their throat. How familiar the feeling.

I still think Penny's layout has been my best in a while
Veonteii's is definitely a contender though

ㅤ "That's what matters, then. Nothing looks like it broke, even if..."
ㅤ Penny lightly rubs her own nose with the hand that didn't touch Faye. "You, uh, might want a handkerchief or something?"
‎

‎
ㅤ Their hand's grip is firm, pulling Faye's flesh weight to standing with a backward step. Promptly after, when released, that hand returns somewhat swiftly to their side, as if hiding under the coat that draped from their shoulders. Low level of pain as it may be, it was enough to notice.

" It does.
That's why I despise the humans."

She lets out a long sigh.

" As Nature, it's fundamental for my job to respect the circle of life. But what the humans do isn't necesarry for life. They aren't just eating fruits, or using the wood of trees for their homes.

They're mowing down->

ㅤ "Naturally... if each plant is a voice in your ears, it must suck for them to go quiet." Penny's voice softens as they speak, arms crossing. How odd that coat never comes off their shoulders.

- 𝑷𝑨𝑰𝑵𝑬. @gruelache.bsky.social · Aug 27

‎
ㅤ A little tongue click comes from not far off. Penny couldn't help but wince a little, seeing it happen in real time. " ... Are your glasses intact, at least?" Chuckling, they offer a hand to help Faye up. The rest of their body seems rather guarded, though...

ㅤ " ... When do they normally speak to you directly?" Head tilting aside, Penny's suit-adorned figure shuffles a little, glancing toward the flower she'd seemingly healed.
