“LUCÍAN. LUCÍAN. WAKE up.” Ugh, it’s still too early, and he tries to hide from the voice, but someone taps him on the nose so he squints upward irritably. Glory grins at him, upside down, so similar to his dream from last night that he snaps awake in a panic. She’s dressed, though, cloak and all, so his heartbeat slows a bit. “Come on, sleepyhead, get dressed. There’s already breakfast.” She bounces a little where she’s sitting on her knees, looking far more gleeful than anyone should at this pre-dawn hour. “There’s something I want to show you, hurry up.” Then she’s gone, and Lucían is left glaring blearily at the tree above him. Fine. Fine. He sits up and starts digging around in his bags for actual daytime clothes, staggering off behind a tree to change. When he comes back and helps himself to a mug of tea and some porridge, Glory is applying her eyebrows, staring intently into a small mirror held in her hand as she does so. She does this every morning, rain or shine, and it’s oddly delightful to Lucían even as it confounds him.

“Why do you do that?” he finally asks as she begins the delicate task of lining her eyes with kohl. “I’ve been wondering for a while.” Lucían takes a sip of tea and then reconsiders his question, adding, “If it’s not too rude of me to ask, my lady.”

“‘Snot rude,” she says carefully, not moving her face very much as she finishes with her right eye. “Lots of reasons, I suppose. The first and most important is that I like how it looks. I think it really brings out my eyes, don’t you?” Glory bats her lashes at him ridiculously and he hides a smile behind his mug. “People also make assumptions about you based on if you wear makeup or not, and I like to use those to my advantage.” She moves to work on the left eye, this one requiring a tricky crossed-arm maneuver.

“Advantage?” Lucían asks when he’s sure she’s not going to poke herself in the eyeball. He eats some of his porridge while he waits for her to answer. The left eye seems to be harder to apply than the right, that would make sense, he supposes.

“Mm-hmm,” she says, lining her under-eye now. “There are those who see a person in makeup and assume that because they have cosmetics on their there’s no brains in that head. It can be helpful to be underestimated like that, so—” she waves the kohl around expressively “—if it happens, I take advantage. Then there are those that like to see people wear makeup, and give preferential treatment, even if they don’t realize they’re doing it.” Glory puts the kohl away and pulls out her lip pigment. “Then there are people like the Abbot who think wearing makeup makes me a sinful harlot, so I wear extra when I go to see him just to make him mad.” She winks at Lucían.
