Fairy Tail Angst Week
Day One (Silence)
AN: Since my last piece for angst week got all of twelve notes, I decided to go with a character slightly more popular than Zera. Hopefully, this one will be even angstier. I had hoped to write more, but… this one's pretty short. A friend of mine convinced me to try a three-sentence drabble to get myself back in the game and… this happened. (Thanks, pal. I owe you one)
Title: Silence
Pairings: N/A
Character(s): Sherria Blendy (Shellia/Chelia/Cheria)
Summary: She's talking, but she's not saying anything, and it's all she can do to hope no one notices.
Sherria has always been talkative – always, always, always – but now her words don't seem to have anything behind them. Sherry is the first to notice (after Wendy and Carla, but they already knew), but Sherria just waves her off and cheerfully states that nothing's wrong, nothing at all.
It's not true at all, and when a Quatro Cerberus mage whose name she doesn't know asks her to heal his leg, it's all she can do not to break down and sob.
