SEEN AND FILMED EARLIER IN THE DAY (3/18): Simon in the midst of the protestors, getting hit with a stray tomato or two before he is able to cast a few shield charms and contain the vegetables. Rather than his typical calm and controlled facade, his annoyance is showing. Simon enters the room. He looked tired and more worn around the edges than normal. He is not immediately aware he's walked into a confessional, he just needs to sit somewhere quiet for a minute. His clothes are speckled with food stains - there might even be a bit of food caught in corner of his frames. He sits down in the chair, hunching. Hearing the light whirling of the camera in front of him, he glances up and then looks away. Simon wasn't expecting this. After staring at his left hand for a minute, barely moving he looks back up. Today the conclusion of the ongoing trials was marked with something not unlike a food fight. It would be accurate to describe the day as long - not in actual length as all days consist of the same amount of hours, but in general feeling of time passing. Simon pauses again - not sure what to say. He sighs, shifting in the chair. Not only is a little uncomfortable, but also tired and burdened. It would be prudent for me to return to my desk so that I might make a dent in some of the paperwork that will need to be filed, so that I might finally head home. The word 'home' holds a heavier meaning to it that can't quite be placed. Simon raises his eyebrows at the camera, in a half attempt at a smile before getting up to leave. SEEN AND FILMED LATER (3/18): Well after the day shift has ended, Simon is still at his desk. Setting down the quill, he looks up believing to heard something or someone passing by. If anything was there, it's not anymore. He closes his eyes, breathing in and out steadily. He could easily fall asleep just then. Instead he opens his eyes, glancing down at his left hand spread flat on his desk. Simon mutters something that sounds like an apology. Then after a moment, he returns back to his paperwork. |
