The wounds were still fresh on her legs. She had made them a couple of days or so back but they hadn't healed yet. Then again she hadn't been putting anything on them to get them to heal. She hadn't gone to a healer to allow them to be looked at. She hadn't been going too close to anyone for them to be able to see. She had been keeping to herself when she could. And when she was in the presence of others she made to hide the marks as best as possible. Should anyone chance to see them then she had the ready answer of having accidentally ran into something. It was a flimsy excuse but with many having gotten used to her walking on her hands, which made her head lower to the ground, it sounded plausible enough that she wouldn't pay attention to something that was sticking out up high and getting her leg caught on it. Or at least she hadn't exactly been called on her lie so far. Perhaps it was because of her kind nature, the way that she was nice and pleasant to everyone even if she was on the quieter side. Who would think that the girl that saw good in everyone could ever think about harming herself?
Perhaps that is why she continued to get away with it? That and because she was something of a hermit. She also went off of pack lands in order to injure herself. She didn't hang around in Anathema when she was marking herself up. She went away so that she wouldn't be caught. She made sure that enough things were done so that she wouldn't be missed. With Juju running off and playing without wanting her around she didn't really have too many responsibilities any longer. No one would ever notice if she turned up missing. Or at least that is what she thought. She wasn't an asset to the pack so she most likely wouldn't even be missed at all. Why should they miss her? What had she done to contribute anything at all to the pack? She had one lucky idea but that was about it. And for all she knew her sister could have only agreed to appease her. To make her feel as if she had contributed something. Nani could have just been the nice and kind sister that Sele knew her to be.
There seemed to be more and more moving into her side of the cave system and so she had decided to take a trip to the other side that didn't seem so crowded. It gave her some time by herself without having to leave home. Her legs were sore still and so she really didn't want to have to travel so far. "Stupid Sele, so so stupid." She grumbled to herself. Normally the marks didn't hurt for this long. Usually she could ignore it but not this time. The pain throbbed with each movement that she made. "You did a little too much. How could you have been so stupid!? Now everyone will know. You are worthless Sele. Completely and utterly useless!" She spoke the words that she always heard in her head out loud now since she figured that no one else was around to hear them.
It was as she walked upon her hands did she a small, sharp piece of stone. She paused to drop her feet in order to sit so that she could hide her find in her gris gris seeing as she had nowhere else to tuck it. She figured that she could take it back to her room and hide it. She had found something that she could carry with her if she couldn't make it to her regular spot where she could cut herself at. If she couldn't make it outside of the pack lands. After all she had found a cave near the shore to hide in. She could use that as a secondary place. That would work for her. She could have a place away from the pack lands as well as on it. She had a stone that she left at her off pack lands site and now for when to use when she remained in Anathema.
