Why was putting up fortifications such a messy task? Nails could break or get dirty, you could get very un-pretty bruises...
But over the years, Laure had learned to deal with it. Under Larry's command -- Larry was her centurion -- the legionnaires of her barrack were digging up trenches in the Fields of Mars while other legionnaires put up fortifications for the Siege game which would take place in the evening. Laure was dressed in a violet Camp Jupiter shirt and Lindia's acid washed shorts, which she was trying not to get dirty. That would be really bogus. Her wavy, blow-dried hair was bound in a ponytail under her helmet and she was shoveling earth as quickly as she could, though watching out to not get any on her. She had lilac nail polish with lavender eyeliner and pearly nude gloss, a hint of blush on her cheekbones.
