What do you call it when girls keep dying, what do you call it          when your body is a zeppelin? How do you become something other than          wounds?

she can feel it in corrupted bones : the desire to lunge forth with no prior warning &. rip unsuspecting she’s jugular clean open for the world to see , yet something in her .. something shrouded in patience , decides otherwise &. instead autumn takes slow ( predatory ) steps near. one may ask if she even has the right person , but with hair like THAT , how could she ever forget ? flowing strands of sunset design &. the woman who fled will forever create an indent in cinder’s psyche. soon shall voice call ; timbre feigning as honeyed sweet despite the sheer malice lurking beneath.  ❛    it’s funny how we spend so much of our lives running from death , no ? yet .. we cannot find the power to FLEE when it approaches before our very eyes.    ❜  expressionism soft , calm even ‘fore peach tiers uplift into a taunting sneer , acting as a shadow for sharpened ivory fangs.   ❛    death should’ve gutted you when she had the chance , little girl.    ❜   @sheruption + sc.

the wendigo. a vile , rotten creature that may appear as a monster with some characteristics of a human or as a spirit who has possessed a human being &. made them become monstrous. it is associated with murder, insatiable greed , &. the cultural taboos against such behaviours. playing into this theme , while cinder is not a wendigo herself , she is in fact a victim of the infamous wendigo psychosis , which is often described as ‘ a human being possessed by the spirit of a wendigo during times of abuse or extreme starvation ‘ , both of which cinder experienced in her childhood.

in this case , salem acts as the spirit of said wendigo. alluding to the cinderella tale , cinder lost both parents at a young age &. was soon taken in as a petty maid for her stepmother &. her two step sisters. she’s kept in a cold , dark basement early on when not cleaning ; often leaning against the damp / dirty walls by stairs leading up &. being tossed naught more than pieces of old bread , various food scraps ( potato peels / the ends of carrots / ect ) &. water , but ONLY when she’s cleaning &. only AFTER being forced to clean herself up before entering the dining quarters. being treated like an animal more - or - less , there’s time &. room for anger ( &. the ever growing sensation of starvation ) boiling &. festering within the young girl’s entirety , which in turn brings salem in the form of a small blackened rat - esque grimm to crawl forth &. after promising power &. fear , possess cinder &. ultimately the slaughtering &. devouring of not only her stepmother &. sisters.

cinders always shown grimm - esque tendancies ( ie : being gluttonous with food / the impulsive desire to attack / ect ) since salem entered her life but after obtaining her grimm arm ?? and driving herself Insane to gouge her own eye out ?? it definitely became much more amplified and v4 n on cinder has quirks / ticks regarding it. her fingers on both limbs twitching like claws / small snarls or growls when shes frustrated or mad and above all else, the fact that shell WILLINGLY devour people after defeating them.

Autumn enters my blood early

and I let it. Soon it will be wine.

Who would like to drink me

underneath the harvest moon?

mouthful of white hot fire , tongue coated in poison , ragged nails painted in my own blood. there’s a hunger in me. something vicious . a thirst to be celestial , godly , divine – &. yet.  ( PERSONALS DO NOT TOUCH ! )
