[log] mad artist
She had managed to walk about... a half mile after her visit with the Arcana. A half mile before she got weak in the knees and had a break down. It included crying, sobbing, and retching. She was half terrified that nearly gotten herself killed in her attempt reach out and the fact she wounded a stranger in desperate hopes to figure them out. She managed to get to her room in the Hearts Caslte, shower, and crawl into her bed for a good three hours. And then she began to plan, pacing in her room, mind frantic. Ideas bouncing. She managed to get a report down. Sloppier than her usual reports but she wanted to get it done and over with and not dwell on the guilt and anger it made her feel.
But this mood? It's not Mania, she's read up on Mania. Nope. Her thoughts are fairly focused. So she thinks. She's got a plan. A new plan that she's talked about with Zoe but then it was just talk. Talk and boasting. But... but she could really pull it off. So she talked to Tegan. And that made her think she could truly pull it off. Of course she could. She was Lasandra Adare and who else pulled off Stupid Stuff so grandly as her? But this plan might take a week or two.
So now she paces on the Green in front of the portable easel and canvass despite the cloudy day. It's a funny sort of movement. Not quite clumsy, there's a liquidness to it. But it's too quick for someone who's more used to the relaxed grace and it's not the stumbling she and stiff way of walking she had right after the incident with Asarlai. And there seems to be agitation in her eyes and the set of her mouth. The art, acrylic colors for once, has sloppier brush strokes. More Cézanne in style than Gentileschi.
Of course, there's one thing that Sandy doesn't realize. Another Arcana Card has been spotted and only a few hours after she left the Embassy and while it's not wide spread news at the time of her departure to the Embassy, a few Cards knew about it. Quite a few in fact. Someone may have questions for her, someone might notice she's off, or someone might just want to egg her on.
Who knows?
