โyou and i are nursing a poison that never stungโ sedated, hozier
she didnโt want to be here today. it was easy to play the part of dutiful daughter and accomplished skater but she when faced with pain running away seemed far more favorable. her last doctorโs appointment hadnโt boded well, a minorย setback, he had said, minor enough to keep her in therapy longer she thought bitterly. violet sighed leaning bonelessly against the exercise machine.ย โthis sucks.โ //ย @rvjas
โi had a thought dear however scaryโ like real people do, hozier
violet was enamored, fingers drumming rhythmically against her mug as tommy spoke. it was her own fault really, so easily distracted by tales of woe she wasnโt sure what made them so attractive.ย โreally?โ her gasp attracted the attention of several other customers and she sat back in her chair thoroughly embarrassed. โi canโt believe she did that, she kind of sounds like my mom.โ a terse pause echoed in her words, โnot that my mom is bad as those other people i mean iโve got it pretty good.โ //ย @cvnnectednessย
โyou belong among the wildflowers, you belong in a boat out at sea.โ wildflowers, tom petty
โdid you just pick those?โ violet said rubbing miserably at her nose, though the flowers were beautiful they were keen to ignite her allergies. tears welled like a fount. โi mean theyโre gorgeous-really pretty yโknow i just,โ she sneezed comically loud. her face was red and pitiful with doe eyed desperation. //ย @cherrypoiscnย
โdonโt stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die.โ 17, youth lagoon
violet sniffled loudly, her dainty hands pressing a tissue to her cheek as the movie credits rolled. if there was one thing she could count on, it was a good cry at effieโs. she looked back at the woman, eyes still welling with tears. โdonโt you ever imagine meeting your soulmate? i used to play it all the time, iโd make one of my stuffed animals my soulmate and act it out.โ // @ofseffie
being back on the ice was like visiting an old friend and being unsure what to say. violet ground her toe pick down hoping to squash her nerves with it. she felt clunky and awkward, grace lost, it was a miracle they were even letting her skate this early into her physical therapy, she thought. she closed her eyes and adapted, gliding by the edge of a rink until she heard the tell-tale shift of the door. she turned, nervousness displaced by practiced politeness.ย โpeter hey!โ violet skated towards the entrance,ย โi thought you werenโt coming for another hour?โ //ย @precaricusย
i listened to my sad boi hours playlist while writing this so i hope yโall are are ready lmao
* โก ห ห / song yuqi + cis female + she/her. โ did you know vioโs real name is violet zhou? oh yeah, they are a twenty year old figure skater known as the olympian that has been in town for six months. this bisexual capricorn can be poised + introspective, as well as haughty + childish. i hear their soulmark is a daffodil on the ribcage, and their soulmate looks like nick robinson. an iced coffee clinking against a class, manicured nails tapping a railing, family pictures that seem a little too perfect.ย

violet walters is famousย
well, not in the traditional sense; sheโs not a child star or a burgeoning pop princess, sheโs a professional figure skaterย
since violet was four sheโs lived on ice and snow, on the thrill of perfecting a new trick, and the reward of standing on the top of the podiumย
she initially picked up skating as a hobby to fill her time, after all her parents couldnโt be expected to entertain a rambunctious toddler twenty four hours a dayย
what once was a hobby soon became her life as she began competing in smaller local competitions and picking up the attention of bigger names in the figure skating world
three months after her thirteenth birthday, she won her first international title at the world junior figure skating championships
violet was pulled out of school to focus on skating and instead homeschooled by her motherย
and while this decision propelled her career violet found herself devoid of any friends or social skillsย
for the most part she spent her time alone reading books when she wasnโt practicing
her mother who helped to manage her career became overbearing, pushing violet to practice to the brink of what her body could handleย
violet would never be good enough for her mother, even winning gold medals couldnโt abate her as she always found a flaw in violetโs program
though she did have one reprise, she adored her older sister rose, the two were incredibly close and violet could find solace in roseโs strong personalityย
violet, always the passive one could never stand up to her motherโs outlandish requests but rose always had her best interests in mind when she fought on violetโs behalf
when rose was killed in a drunk driving accident a year ago, violetโs entire world was yanked out from underneath herย
violetโs rankings slipped and so did her hold on happiness. she was overcome by grief and sorrow even more so when injured her leg badly enough to be benched for the 2019 competitive seasonย
now sheโs in jericho doing physical therapy and recoveringย
personality - sheโs kind of all over the place, she has this sense of naivetรฉ and innocence because she doesnโt have the same experiences as a normal young person. her awkwardness due to lack of experience often times comes across as snobbiness. she has a hard time disassociating her identity from figure skating, sheโs unsure who violet the person is without violet the figure skater
