Work Text:
Isha was young and developmentally disabled, sure, but neither of those things meant that she was stupid or unobservant.
Jinx was actually regularly surprised by just how intelligent the young girl was, and she paid attention to everything, even when it seemed like she didn't.
And she saw the ways Jinx would hurt herself.
It wasn't anything super overt, like cutting or burning or anything, but she would dig her nails into her skin until she bled and would be unnecessarily rough and reckless with her day-to-day actions.
She didn't treat Isha that way, though. No, she only behaved like this towards herself.
Isha didn't quite understand why Jinx was the way she was, and she didn't know all the things Jinx had endured in her life and in her mind, but she knew that these minor forms of self-harm certainly weren't good.
So, whenever she noticed it, she would try her best to distract Jinx with something fun or interesting to minimize the damage.
And, sometimes, it worked.
