so   like   …   elle   as   a   human.   they’re   just   basically   the   kid   of   a   rich   family   that   dabbles   in   various   magics   and   rituals.   elle’s   grandfather   started   the   practice   of   good   magics   to   help   the   world   but   elle’s   dad   said   fuck   that   and   dabbled   in   black   magics   and   satanic   witchcraft.

v.   main.   ―   elinor   headcanons   /   plot   summaries.  

lucifer   isn’t   afraid   to   send   demons   to   earth   to   give   elinor   a   hard   time.      elinor   has   had   their   fair   share   of   demonic   brawls   all   because   lucifer   wasn’t   getting   his   way.      sometimes   there   are   demons   elle   cannot   necessarily   fight   for   one   reason   or   another,   but   seldom   is   there   ever   a   case   like   this,   and   it’s   only   inevitable   that   elle   will   find   a   way   to   fight   said   demon/s. 

it   wouldn’t   be   far―fetched   to   say   that   elinor   has   run   into   a   hunter   of   monsters   and   could   have   possibly   had   run   ins   with   quite   a   few   during   their   time   on   earth.      elle   does   their   best   to   prove   that   they   aren’t   on   earth   to   cause   a   ruckus,   even   if   it   means   pacifying   a   tense   fight   between   them   and   the   hunter.      if   anything,   elle   wants   to   get   rid   of   the   demonics   on   earth,   but   knows   even   that   would   be   near   impossible.      elle   would   gladly   offer   help   to   hunters   who   are   trying   to   defeat   a   greater   evil.  

elinor   is   equally   human   as   they   are   monster,   but   most   importantly,   they   are   who   they   choose   to   be.      they   are   a   complex   amalgamation   of   not   wholly   human,   and   not   wholly   monster.      they   understand   that,   to   most,   they   will   either   be   one   or   the   other,   never   both.  

elinor   doesn’t   really   have   everything   figured   out.      they’re   figuring   it   out   as   they   go.     elle   isn’t   even   wholly   sold   on   their   end   goal,   and   sometimes   even   that   tends   to   change.      what   they   know   for   certain   is    that   what   has   and   is   still   being   done   to   them   isn’t   right;   they   think   maybe   they   don’t   even   deserve   any   better   a   life   than   the   one   they’re   living,   but   they’ll   continue   to   fight   for   one   any   way   ―   because   it’s   a   hope   for   something   better   that   keeps   them   going.

She looked like a wounded bird. Her smile mingled an ineffable melancholy with its sweetness.
