because really, something deep inside of her absolutely loved taking care of jackie. )

[* the 𝒃utche͟r͟. @illuniscanis]

( guilt washes over her, and she immediately feels awful for being so harsh. after all, this was jeff’s fault — not jackie’s. )

yeah. yeah— here, hold on to me.

( she wraps her arm around the other’s waist, leaning her weight on herself. a soft smile is offered —

(a shaking hand reaches out to grasp the fabric of shauna's top before she can get too far, hazel eyes shining in the sunlight.)

shaun, (she breathes, embarrassed to look this haggard and embarrassed to need so much help.) can ——— can you help me? I'm sorry, I just ——— i can't —

[* the 𝒃utche͟r͟. @illuniscanis]

[𓌈 @violntchld]

[ 👀 ]

[* the 𝒃utche͟r͟. @illuniscanis]

don’t say that.

( rushing to jackie’s side, a hand placed on the small of her back. worry flashed over her eyes, but she masked it with annoyance, taking the bucket from her. )

just … go sit down or something. i’ll handle it.

[𝓙𝙰𝙲𝙺𝙸𝙴 .ᐟ ‍‍ ‍ @congeIatio]

(out of breath, hunched over in front of @illuniscanis, the water bucket at her side. really, she ought to not be doing any heavy lifting right now, what with the state of her baby bump and all, but chores are chores.)

shaun. . . i think i'm fucking dying.

[* the 𝒃utche͟r͟. @illuniscanis]

sure. guess i’m just hearing things then.
