I decided to put both of these characters on the same post because their history is…complicated.
At first glance, these two were a pair of peculiar, gothic twins with a penchant for purple and green. They lived a fabulous life of luxury from being the children of one of the most prolific actresses in Hollywood. Even though their mother was a little off, she doted on the twins with all the maternal love she could give as a single parent. So, Glen and Glenda had no reason to question the home and family they grew up with.
Then, why did they keep having those nightmares?
For some time, these two have been plagued by the strangest dreams. There was one where a women was set on fire. Then, there are ones where a sinister, raspy voice is beckoning to them. And the voice referred to them as “Shitface”.
And for some reason the twins had a British accent.
But everything felt so vivid and familiar, as if it was something from their past.
Throughout their entire lives, each of them felt as if there was a piece of them missing.
The gentle and meek Glen was a pacifist by nature. They might not even crush a cockroach if they had to. Their gentle temperament makes it all the more unusual when you are familiar with who their parents are. In contrast, Glenda fully embraces the violent tendencies that they inherited from their bloodline. Glenda is unapologetically ruthless, violent and, if need to, willing to kill. This was always a blessing to their mother. After all, who else could you trust to give a suitcase bomb as a gift?
Yet, despite their vast differences in personality, this peculiar pair of twins were each other’s best friend and they wouldn’t have it any other way.
Then, on a fateful visit to their mother in her Beverly Hills mansion, Glen and Glenda were soon thrust into a mystery that would give them the answers behind their strange dreams.
It was the eve of their 18th birthday. The day they would transition into adulthood. They were just so excited to see their mom again, who planned a lavish party for them, complete with a guest list of A-list friends of the family. Then, the twins begin questioning their mother’s stranger-than-usual behavior this past year, such as her avoiding the public and installing this high-tech security system. What is Tiff-…Jennifer hiding from her children? Plus, what is behind this locked door… Oh. My. God!
Then, all the skeletons fell out…figuratively and literally.
Glen and Glenda were now at war against the woman who loved and raised them. The home they knew was gone. They were both on the run and had to rely on the trust of strangers in order to survive. But no matter what the circumstances, as always, the twins’ loyalty toward each other never dissolved. A bond that would stay true and tethered, even to a tragic end.
But don’t feel too sad. As history has shown, this family always finds a way to be reborn.
