Decided that Bryn does, in fact, bite people in canon

Day One: The Story I want to tell is one of power, of philosophy, of political intrigue and moral strife. I want my audience to think of themselves, of the world, to reflect and be reflected, to be the one to pull the veil from their eyes with my masterfully crafted narrative.

Day One: The Story I want to tell is one of ambiguity and fear, of manipulation and control. I want my audience to love my characters as they despise them, to write into existence the horrors of what one can become and still to make those horrors irresistible.

Day Five: The Story I want to tell is a tragedy of people who are irredeemable but seek redemption, who have suffered endlessly and pass the suffering onto others, and wouldn’t you, the audience, become the same under similar circumstances? If you were them, would you not pray for redemption?

Day Thirty-five: The Story I want to tell is about being lost in a crowd and inside of yourself. I beg my audience to forgive my characters, because maybe, then, they will forgive me.

Day Three Hundred: The Story I want to tell us about being human. That is all.

My characters as Portrait of Dorian Gray (Chapters 1-4) quotes:

[magicalprofessorranchdiplomat]

“Someday, Silus, I’d like to tell you a story about a little girl who really wanted to be loved…

And she went on a journey of self discovery, as little people do, and she learned a lot of things. She learned, first, how to not be a girl anymore. They liked learning this, so they kept learning. They learned, second, how to not trust anymore. They felt this was valuable, so they kept learning. They learned, third, how to not hope anymore, and the more they learned the more bitter they became, until they realized that they were no longer lovable, and it was no longer fair to ask others to love them.

They became afraid of the word, because it reminded them of hope, and of trust, and all of the things they’d unlearned to protect themself in a darker period.

But then they met a boy, and he said it over and over again—with his eyes, with his touch, with his voice—and the word “love” became a little less scary. And they started to wonder again if they could be a person who wanted to be loved.”

(Technically this is an AU but I’m putting it here because I’m FEELING THINGS)

Anya Li (she/her)

Age 21 - 5’3” - introvert - Itu

Anya’s arc is less dramatic than those of the other horsemen, and would probably be best described as “coming into girlbosshood”. She is representative of a demographic that is convinced that she could do better in a position of godlike power than the current ones in charge, but has no qualifications to wield this power and, if given it, would have no idea what to do with it.
