Every time you catch yourself going, "Fuck, are humans just inherently evil and naturally inclined to selfishness and harm???" you HAVE to remember that that's literally a core ideal of Christianity.
So if it feels inescapable and like evidence of it is everywhere, whether at times or always, that might just because you're in a Western country where you're surrounded by Christians who believe that, fundamentally, in their worldview. And also they talk and make art about it all the time and run the vast majority of news outlets. And spent over a thousand years burning any art or texts that disagreed with them. Etc. etc.
If you're gonna come to as drastic and painful a conclusion as that, at least take the time first to make sure you're not working with biased evidence (surrounded by too many people and cultural products that believe original sin is real)
And if it turns out the feeling WAS partly the result of cultural Christianity, then hey, that's great news, because it means there's that much (and it really is SO MUCH) less evidence that humans inherently suck. Which is good, because we don't

And that every soul ends up exactly where it belongs.

And yet… here you are. A soul that should not be possible.
A variable in the system never accounted for.

Are you here for salvation—
—or damnation?

CAELIS (f/m) —
Tall. Composed. Every movement is intentional. Their features are sharp in a quiet, commanding way. . Their wings are immaculate. Pale feathers layered with dark feathers perfectly, broad enough to shield without effort. When they unfurl, the air shifts — not violently, just decisively. Being near Caelis feels like standing beside something ancient and steady. Like a cathedral that learned how to walk.
VEX (f/m) —
Tall. Taller than a lot of people. Dark hair that never quite behaves but never looks accidental either with a pale complexion to match. Eyes that rest half-lidded, watchful, always cataloguing. Their expression tends to hover somewhere between faint amusement and complete detachment. Their wings are sleek and controlled. Clean lines. Precise symmetry. Rarely fully spread. They keep them close, tucked in, disciplined.
M (f/m) —
Lighting hits them differently than it should. Like their features settle a half-second too late. Their expression is unreadable in a way that doesn’t feel cold — just distant. Observing from somewhere slightly removed. Their wings are darker, their iridescence faint, flickering when they move. Nearly silent. Nearly weightless. So out of the ordinary.
ELIO (m) —
Elio smiles, and the rooms brighten up. Light skin that seems to hold light naturally. White-blonde curls that refuse order. Eyes that give everything away — curiosity, worry, delight — all of it. Their wings are expressive in the same way they are. Gold-tipped feathers that shimmer when they move, rarely held still. They react with every emotion like punctuation marks in midair.
ZIVA (f) —
Bright eyes. Sharp grin. Dark tightly curled hair pulled back in a way that suggests she tried to make it neat and immediately gave up. She moves fast — talks faster — and somehow always seems two steps ahead socially. Tall, slender, with a dark complexion. Her wings are vibrant, feathers edged with subtle shifting tones that flash when she gestures. And she gestures constantly. Ziva is chaos — but the fun kind.
ATHOS (m) —
Athos looks as if he was built to hold the line. Broad shoulders, black skin. Solid stance. The kind of physical presence that makes space without asking for it. His gaze is steady, assessing — not unkind, just direct. His wings are dense and powerful, darker feathers layered thick like armour. When they spread, it’s not graceful — it’s imposing. The air moves because they decided it should.
LIORA (f) —
Liora looks like quiet light, the only difference between her and her brother is her hair is long and white-blond, he has curls. She has soft features. Gentle eyes. The kind of expression that makes you lower your voice without realising why. There’s patience in the way she moves — unhurried, careful. Her wings glow faintly at the edges, gold and ivory blending like sunlight through stained glass. When fully spread, they feel less like a display and more like shelter. Standing near Liora feels safe. Even when nothing else is.
