For the Record, this is self-destructive
For the record, I'm aware of that.

Ares blinked gently, shock apparent in her eyes. A pain radiated in her paws but she looked at Foam quizzically. "Uh- I'm not sure what I could paint.. I don't have anyone... anyone significant to me here.. she's in Tanglewood." She admitted, hurting shoulders hunched in embarrassment. She knew what that could be taken as, but she didn't care unless the unspoken idea was spoken.

"I'm Ares, by the way." Smile, though faded and faltered, rose once again. The pain in her paws subsided and she looked at a blank space, though small, on the stone face.
