It was morning, and although Taibbi was usually a morning person, this morning she was reluctant to greet the day, just as she had been for the past three sevendays. It was the sling's fault. Since she'd dislocated her shoulder three sevendays ago, she'd had to keep her left arm immobilized in a sling, which was all kinds of inconvenient for just about everything about being a candidate, but especially when it came to dressing and undressing. Because it took more time for her to maneuver her way into her clothes, she had to wake up earlier, and even so it was a real challenge to pull her leggings up and lace them, and she knew she looked absurd doing it.
This morning getting dressed had been just as much of an inconvenience as usual, and she'd managed to stain both her tunic and her leggings with the numbweed she was supposed to apply twice a day. She paid no heed to the new stains, as they had no impact on her ability to get through the day, but as she lined up in the dining hall for breakfast her mood began to sour. Evidently they were a little shorthanded in the kitchens this morning, so everyone had to ladle their own porridge from tureens, instead of a kitchen worker attending to the task. With one arm confined in a sling, Taibbi was stymied.
She looked around hopefully, doing her best to make eye contact with any person in possession of two working hands that she might ask to either hold her bowl or ladle in some porridge.
