The story
The hedgehog had been waiting for the tea to cool for seventeen minutes. It had read the instructions on the tin twice, then once more for good measure. The biscuit was digestif-flavoured, a choice made after three hours of silent deliberation. Outside, the wind rattled the gutter, but inside, time had folded neatly into the armchair’s springs. It did not mind being strange. It only wished the milk hadn’t curdled.
The brief
A small hedgehog sits upright on a faded blue armchair in a dimly lit attic, its quills slightly ruffled, one paw resting on a half-eaten biscuit, the other holding a miniature teacup, dust motes drifting in the slanted afternoon light through a single grimy window.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
