Lore under the cut!

Machinery Moth had originally been considered one of the 'lucky ones' when she lived in Battery City. Although the rules were strict and heavily enforced, her family could get away with a bit more because of her father's status as a Scarecrow. Moth always knew there was something wrong with the City, though. She managed to avoid the pills, pretending to take them but disposing of them afterwards. She loved to feel, to have her own thoughts and emotions and not some vacant-eyes BL/ind robot.
