Minnie came home from the gym to find a different color pattern than she was expecting leaking through the door. It was still a familiar color pattern, but fortunately without he sickening gray ruined patches that had recently become familiar as well.
Minnie was still blinking as she closed the door. "Tina?" What was Tina Frost doing on Julian's couch?

"Walking is good. Sounds like some worthwhile math there," Minnie says. "Now, I desperately need some ginger ale. Do you awnt anything while I'm up?"

"If you have Coke, that'd be amazing. Soft drinks are forbidden at home because Shaw's a snobbish jerk." Tina smiled, her mood brightening a bit.

"Gotta admit, Coke's like malted battery acid to me," Minnie says as she roots in the fridge. "But a good host anticipates varying tastes, and Julian's certainly that." She comes back, handing Tina classic glass bottle of the stuff and sipping her ginger ale.

"Cola settles the stomach," she offered helpfully before taking a sip. "So how long have you and Julian known what was going on?"

"So does ginger, so I'm good. Not very long at all. A few weeks ago was the second time I saw your colors going wrong, I told him, and he figured it out from there."

"Nonsense. You're in a rotten situation, no sense letting shame pile up on top of it. And you're looking out for Grace, so that's gotta be where your pride goes."

"Mom's sending her away to boarding school next year. I just have to hang out a little longer and then she'll be out, she'll be safe. It's totally worth it."

Minnie gave her a 'good soldier'-style clasp on the shoulder.

She knew she'd have to get her own pride in order, letting someone act towards her in ways where only Julian had the right. But the standard sort of pride was a luxury if she wanted to do her best for Julian, and it wasn't as if the bastard could change her heart.

"You should get some rest."

"Probably a good idea. I'm really tired. Julian got me ibuprofen earlier to help with the soreness so I think I'm ready for a nap."
