Alicia blinked as Zeres lifted a pair of scissors he found lying on the make-up stand by the window. "What? Why would you want to –"

"Well, I think I’m the only male here with long hair now." He said innocently as his fingers worked harshly on his silver hair. "Even Alexander cut his hair short quite a long while back, didn’t he? I think it’s time for me to cut mine too. You know, to keep up with the times?" Zeres nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders and threw a lopsided smile.

"Oh," was all Alicia could say. She stared at his long, luscious hair that looked like a silvery silken waterfall. It was beautiful and shimmering like moonlight when viewed from certain angles.

Without waiting for her to agree, Zeres grabbed a stool and put it in front of Alicia. He then sat down, his back facing her while his hand that was holding the scissor and comb was stretched out towards her.

"You can do it, right? Or is it too hard for you?" he asked without glancing back, his voice seemed a little worried.

"No, no... of course I can do it. I think I am quite good at this you know. I’ve helped cut a few little boy’s hair back in the days." She told him as she took the scissors and comb from his hand. "It’s just that... are you really sure about this, Zeres?"

"As sure as I know my own name, my queen." He didn’t even hesitate.

"You’re not sacrificing your hair just because you think I’m dying of boredom and you’re providing an extra service here are you?"

His shoulders suddenly started moving up and down repetitively and she realized after a few seconds that he was laughing. "Please don’t worry, that’s definitely not the reason. It’s not out of a whim either, I’ve been thinking about having it cut for a while now. So just go ahead and cut it, Alicia. I don’t care if it’s ugly."

A long sigh escaped Alicia’s lips as she started to work on his hair. "I know you recognise how precious having silver hair is to us witches."

"I know. But... it doesn’t really mean anything to me. And it’s not like it’ll turn dark, or I’ll suddenly get bald, if it was cut. I just want it short form now on."

Alicia was silent for a moment. For some reason, she felt like Zeres truly despised his hair and she didn’t know what to feel about it.

She stared at his hair as she used her fingers to pull apart the little snarls with great care. She couldn’t help but want to coax him to not cut it off, but she could sense that this was something he really wanted. Due to that, she didn’t have the heart to order him not to cut it. Especially when she thought back on everything that he had done for the useless her since the beginning of this bloody journey.

"Alright," she eventually gave in and drew a deep breath. "I’ll cut it."
