It’s an ordinary day—so not a very pleasant one. The weather is dreary and muggy, and the day’s lunch is a soup that’s a little too watery and bland. The griffons are being their usual level of noisy and swoopy. The work is its usual level of urgent and difficult.

But in the storage rooms, something wiggles. Then it hums. Then it pops.

Outside of the storage room, there’s no actual sound, no shift in the wind, and no visible sign of a change. But the pop might be felt—like the moment something finally clicks, or two ideas suddenly fit together, except the opposite. In the heads of everyone in the fortress, something is suddenly not connected quite right.

The first sign of what’s gone wrong is that someone immediately stands up and tells the cook how bad the soup is.

A lot of people’s days are about to get exponentially worse.

"...oh."

He takes a moment to think about it, and before he can stop herself, "...yeah, maybe it was then." He'd certainly think so, anyway, if it had been him.

Well that hurt more than she expected. She thought it herself plenty, but for someone else to say it? Ouch.

"Well, you have now."

Without much mulling over, she draws back and chucks the book at his head.

Say what one will of Benedict, he's been here far too long to not see when there's about to be a projectile aimed at him, so he sidesteps it with a look of surprise that he might not deserve.

"What was that for!" he demands, sounding more wounded than angry.

She's already on her feet and rushing towards the door when she responds: "For agreeing with me and hurting my feelings, for being prejudiced, and for having good hair!"

She's already out the door and gone when it hits him.

"...oh."
