.
wasted all my time in therapy talking about how bad i am at therapy then did my stupid yoga class and cried at the end bc like an idiot i was like trying to Connect To My Body, awful idea, remembered to take my stupid New meds because i fucked myself up by being so noncompliant, then managed to get a little work done, and just as i was thinking maybe i'll actually go to sleep early or something i saw another FUCKING BUG one of those house centipedes that i KNOW are pretty isolated i KNOW only feed on other bugs i KNOW won't hurt me and it doesn't matter at all bc i kill everything and so now it's dead but it was on the door to my laundry machine and then crawled to thE OTHER SIDE OF THE DOOR so i opened it and killed it but like idk why it never occurred to me that things could cross that door!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have to do laundry tomorrow, how am i going to go in there????
i have always said that when i'm not otherwise depressed the phobia is the worst thing for my SI and here we go again. i don't see a way out of this. if one (1) incident with ants can send me into such a spiral that i'm literally acting like i did back in boston at my worst and forcing myself to stay awake and being too afraid to go in my room because i think there must be bugs there because i haven't been there in a few days like what was the point of any of this and what IS the point of any of this. NOT ONLY do i feel like there's no escape here but i also wasted a year and a half and tons of money and time and everything just to sink back into one of the more humiliating times of my life. i don't want to say i want to die but like i do i can't keep doing This and i don't want to do yet more exposure therapy i did SOmu ch and i worked SO hard even if it was all, apparently, a total waste
and i just have no idea how i'm going to sleep tonight, anywhere. here or in my bed. like i just want to procrastinate sleeping, which has been part of the problem this whole time, bc i'm scared of nightmares et al and if i just force myself to stay awake then i'll pass out at 5 and be really tired and hopefully jsut not dream, which is a decent method except it probably is exacerbating the anxiety and this is what i mean it's just a cycle
and this is something that i should be putting in my jounral anyway bc i keep saying to post this super personal stuff here less so i don't add the layer of needing validation to these breakdowns but something about the idea of writing this down feels even more humiliating somehow probably bc i WON'T get any validation except like, i know if i press post and like two (wonderful, i appreciate you) people like it it won't feel satisfying either bc the ONLy thing that will just feels like having this NOT HAPPEN IN THE FIRST PLACE and i don't know how to do that because I THOUGHT I ALREADY DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw your most recent post on dhmis and tma and I've got opinions to say
I believe Computers is an Eye episode because Colin's whole deal is stealing personal info and being smart but its not my strongest
I see Jobs as a buried because while it doesn't involve much claustrophobia its more about harmful workplaces and overworking which ties in with the buried in a symbolic sense.
I will argue so strongly Death is an End episode. The End is LITERALLY the fear of death smh. While I can see the argument its a Stranger because of Stain Edwards the theme of death is so strong that it isn't that relevant.
I see Family as both Stranger and Corruption, Stranger because the whole episode feels very uncanny with the design of the family and set being a "real" place. It's also Corruption because the episode is about toxic family relations.
I still cannot believe how you thought Friendship was originally a Vast episode. While I can see why you would assign it Lonely it's clearly a Corruption, it's literally about toxic friendships. Also bugs.
Tbh i don't know what to assign to Transport my closest guess is Vast but my argument isn't very strong
Electricity is a hard one, I don't think i can assign it to one entity. I think Electracey is a Extinction avatar because she's a robot and the "everything in the home will be plugged in and part of the electric family" line. I could see Charged Yellow being either Eye, Stranger or Extinction. Eye because he's want to find the truth and also green eyes, Stranger because Yellow gets replaced, and Extinction because he gets replaced using specifically technology. The power outage is probably Dark because darkness. Lesley is a Web avatar, I will fight you on this. She's controlling them, she's the literal puppet master. You said that Lesley isn't the main one pulling the string making her less Web aligned but I would argue that makes her MORE web aligned because she's knows she's not fully in control. I interpret becoming a web avatar as not only being manipulative, but accepting your lack of free will. As Annabelle said in 147, "let it never be said that I do not dance the steps I am assigned."
Sorry this is long and probably sounds a little rude i just have very strong opinions on tma and dhmis have a lovely day
COmputer being eye was also on my first post but i removed it bc i didnt think it was part of the big Fear factor ? but the way you phrased it does make it work
jobs being buried makes sense too !! my main reason for it being spiral is just Duck calling everything out and then Also going weird ? and then going back to "this is all wrong" very strongly (also the episode is reminiscent of Sculptor's Tool to me with only duck pointing out how this is Odd)
death SHOULD be end ur right , i just didnt think anyone in dhmis seemed very scared of the Death there ? so i thought it wasnt very important but Yeah when you mention it its definitely end ty (Or desolation bc it also feels like . theyre more focused on the grief of losing someone n not the Fear of Death ? if that makes sense=? but i dont rly get the End and Desolation anyway so)
CORRUPTION FOR FAMILY IS SO RIGHT i think i considered corruption for it at one point but i second guessed myself enough to remove it again . and stranger never reallly seemed correct to me but it was the closest and i had no one to discuss with so i ran with it:sob:
IM SORRYY LSITEN OK i hadnt listened to tma in full when i made the first list. i just read the entities wiki page and heard season 5 ..!!!!
honestly idk if i agree with corruption bc , while thats probably the deeper meaning of the episode (toxic friends) warren always seemed like just an autistic asshole to me so i never saw the whole . toxic thing ? and he never really actually seemed friends with any of them ?? yea taking advantage of their kindness but i wouldnt call it a toxic relationship bc there never Was a Relationship to me (probably factually wrong n im being ignorant here but its my list and blehh :P im biased towards warren)
and im probably just forgetting something bc i havent rewatched it in a while but are there bugs besides warren (are worms bugs)?
transport i assigned Web bc red guy being like . aware of the whole They're Trapped There thing and trying to escape and Lonely bc they're trying to get to other people/ civilization/ community but are just . stuck ? and in some episodes the lonely just takes ppl to endless places that they cant leave (cul-de-sac is the only one i remember) and it just (again) reminded me of that
ELECTRICITY /SHOULLD/ be more than 1 or 2 very true but i just Really hate assigning more than 2 to these idk why ive set that rule for myself but it just feels wrong, disorderly and i dont like it .
but yes i can see electracey being extinction (tbh i feel like teachers being avatars/ assinging them patrons/fears could be a whole other list itself)
Charged Yellow being stranger i disagree. yes hes replaced but it feels more like . if s1 jon got replaced by s5 jon ? does that make sense ?
I HAD DARK For this episode too bc the power outage but it didnt feel like a big fear factor here ? and i just didnt think it was significant enough (the dumb self-imposed rule)
Lesley IS web coded i completely forgot annabelle for a second when i made this :sob: ive had too much michael on my mind and i thought being trapped wasnt enough of a theme here ? not like it was in Transport or like Dreams but yea it definitely should be Web
IM GLAD this is long i like hearing other ppls thoughts and input on this silly stuff (it did sound a little rude at times but dw i get it)
I think at the end of the day the way we judge these is just Very different? Unless you disagree, i dont think the web series is this "up for debate" as the tv show is bc it just has . Less. There's maybe 3 lines at the start, then the teacher comes in and starts singing about what they embody, then the horrors and the end (only the last 3 episodes rly made me question which Power would be associated with them bc it kinda follows a plot so they could all a little be taken as web and lonely with red guy?)
Theres just so many more ways the TV show can be interpreted. These could be judged on the Teacher, the Lesson, the thing that scares the characters, the thing that scares the Audience, symbolism/manifestations, etc. (i think i just went with whatever seemed the most relevant to me / what scared the characters ? but i was also being pretty inconsistent there lmao) i feel like there would probably have to be multiple lists or just one BIG list of everything that could count as one of the entities ? or maybe im blowing this out of proportion and its really simple for you, and only i struggled with this :,)
either way it was fun ! and i think thats all that matters maybe the real dhmis tma entities assigning list were the friends we made along the way aww

Thanks for your bcs art since it got me to watch it! Just finished the series and need to hear your opinions of it all
( Bwaaaah sorry for the very late reply (◞‸ლ) )
omg really(in the tone of bugs bunny at the roulette table)?!!! Ah~ hope u enjoyed it 😭 I GASPED tbh(in a good way!!) cause I don’t think I’ve made taht much fanart of it to spring an interest of it for someoen to get into it, BUT It’s cool my drawings got you interested in it ∩(´;ヮ;`)∩!!! Omg i don’t know what to say like ……… I would much love to hear your thoughts and opinions of it all !!
Ok so duh I love the show, the characters, the feats they put these characters through it all, it’ll surely stick with me. It’s great they decided to make a spin-off for Saul Goodman, ooh a Gus spin-off would’ve been awesome!! Anyways Charlie hustle! Jimmy McGill to Saul Goodman that was a fukcing journey to witness, his rise and demise to Cinnabon manager gene takavic. This part is where I went on tangent about jimmys and Kim’s relationship mostly Kim’s side of it and after I said about jimmy relationship with chucks and Howard’s, but a majority was of Kim’s past of her mother and how It clicked to me after the second flashback, with Kim in the jewelry store gotten caught stealing a pair of earrings and upon leaving her mom like congratulates her applauds her and hands her the earrings she just returned, her mom steals them back to gift to kim. Kims mom validated her for that. after that her and jimmy’s relationship made it so much more clearer to me (to me). Uuuugh just realizing family is a big thing here aaaaaaaaa ripping my hair out. Back to what I was saying, to quote Howard (rest up 🫶🙏) “you’re perfect for each other…. screw the money, you did this for fun. Your get off on it. You’re like leopold and lobe……” like they really did get off on it 😭 omg chuck and jimmy wowowoowowow I just raise my shoulder like of course. Like 😶🌫️🤯.
Oh oh did u also watch breaking bad and el camino as well? It really is a downward spiral for all these characters idk you’ve probably already read other post on here also giving good thoughts over both main shows and the contrast between them and whatnot. I’m really glad Jessie made out free :’) also maybe jimmy but he’s in the cellar:/ oh one thing I can’t forgive jimmy was what he did to old lady in the old folks home😭😭 omg I was literally hurting. will skip those scenes in the forceable rewatch. Phew but yeah that Vince and gould can really tell a story! sheesh!!!

hi sexies ! i’m dani ( she/her ) , 21 & i’m from the gta aka ur messy canadian wassup 🤠 thank u guys sm for applying all ur muses are so beautiful & im sm in love already ! i rly wanna plot w every single one of u so pls give this a like for permission for me 2 come bug u for plots ! 🖤 karina’s info & wanted connections r under the cut !
karina maji was spotted in the fashion district adorning gucci leather ankle boots , with some airpod pros on . they’re most likely listening to don’t stop by meg thee stallion . you may know them as @karina or as that mishti rahman lookalike . their twenty - fourth birthday just passed . while living in tribeca , they’ve gained a bit of a reputation . they’re known to be tenacious but on the other hand quixotic . wonder if they’ll be the next person to hit the headlines . ( cisfemale / she/her + dani / 21 / she/her )
* 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 :
full name : karina aarvi maji .
nicknames : kar , rina , maji
age : twenty - four .
gender : cisfemale , she/her .
sexual orientation : pansexual .
hometown : chicago , illinois .
occupation : professional mma fighter / instagram model .
zodiac chart : aquarius sun , gemini moon , scorpio rising .
character inspo : alicia mendez ( kingdom ) , cristina yang ( grey’s anatomy ) , princess jasmine ( aladdin ) , megara ( hercules ) , alyssa ( the end of the f*cking world ) , kat stratford ( 10 things i hate about you )
* 𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲 :
tw : death , accident , drugs .
karina’s life began in chicago , illinois . born where her parents spent their life , grew up together & eventually ended up married . it was the perfect love story , best friends - then lovers - then soulmates . tied for life , married young , in their mid 20′s . but the love between the two of them never faltering once even after another 10 years pass .
her mother , was a highly sought after model . her father , one of the most legendary ufc fighters in the league . the maji’s were considered royalty to the tabloids , their love story inspiring many . their life was seemingly so perfect , a dream to many . & when they found themselves blessed with a little girl after five years of marriage , it just made them an even more “ perfect ” family .
karina was treated like a princess , her parents adored the ground she walked on & karina did the same with them . she was well - behaved growing up , knowing how lucky she was to be living so luxurious , something her parents taught her to appreciate since she was old enough to understand . they drilled gratefulness into her head by the age of five . it was a very rare occurrence where karina would fight or disrespect her parents .
they lived in chicago for many years , a way for them to keep their roots established while raising karina . & have more privacy than living in their career hubs would give them - aka , nyc or la . it was much more accessible for her father to work out of chicago , but for her mother , there were many hours spent travelling between chicago & new york . too many .
( tw death , plane crash ) it was the mere age of 17 , when karina’s loving mother never returned home from her trip to new york . tragedy struck when her plane crashed due to pilot error . the day that changed not only karina’s life permanently , but her father too . both their hearts broke into two that day .
she wondered for months how she could possibly continue life & living without her mom in it . & the older she got , the more & more the feeling invaded her . through every life experience she had afterwards she wished with everything in her that her mom was there next to her .
karina went from a happy , extroverted & polite girl to a closed off , sardonic & enigmatic woman . it was as if the light was taken out of her body & she turned into someone unrecognizable .
( tw drugs ) it tore her dad apart , after taking a year off to mend , he fell into a spiral of alcohol & drugs , and he never went back . his career completely ended . to this day , her dad hasn’t stepped foot in the ring since her mother’s death .
her senior year of high school - karina fell into that same spiral . using cocaine , xanax , weed & booze to cure her broken heart . & she felt like it did , for a little while anyway . by some miracle , she graduated with her diploma . but that didn’t mean much anyway , karina wasn’t going to college , she knew exactly what she wanted to do with the rest of her life .
karina grew up religiously watching her dad fight , she’d seen tapes of every single one of his fights before she was old enough to watch them & from before she was born . religiously trained & boxed with her father every sunday since she was eleven . she learned the ins & out at a young age , & fell in love with the sport the second she took her first swing .
she fell even more heavily into training after her mom passed , spending practically every single day honing her skills & building herself to follow in her dad’s footsteps & become one of the best fighters the ufc has ever seen .
began building her career at eighteen by moving to new york city , she was signed by the age of 20 . suddenly appearing in the tabloids , there was something about her that seemed to bring in people’s attention . mma fans or not , she gained a large following on social media .
suddenly , she was getting sponsorship offers left & right . whether it was mma related or sugarbear hair , she was getting them . karina took the ones that paid her well , & her following just seemed to keep rising every day after that , basically became considered an “ influencer ” along with her other title .
at the age of 21 , karina became one of the youngest female ever to be signed by the UFC . this was a big deal to her , as it’s a dream so many fighters wish for . something it takes years of hard work & dedication to accomplish . something she worked her entire life for .
she’s been fighting with the ufc for the last three years , loving every minute of it . the intense training , the fights , the interviews , it all gives her a rush she can’t explain . something drugs couldn’t give her , which she’s required to get tested for every once in a while , usually before a fight . she’s found her ways around using without it ruining her career and/or getting caught . let’s see how long that lasts .. ; - ) ksjndfsfd
with all the money that she’s reigned in the last few years from the ufc along with her instagram sponsorships , she’s sending a lot of it to her father , considering his “retirement” fund is basically non - existent while he stays cooped up in their chicago family home , surrounded by memories of her mother . while karina stays resided in her cozy tribeca home , only steps away from her training gym .
* 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 :
karina is a v hard nut 2 crack . she’s closed off , sardonic & doesn’t really converse much with strangers
it’s basically been her & her dad since her mom’s passing , so she’s very hard to get close to . but once u do , she’ll never let u go .
she’s loyal to a fault , because she’s always afraid of people leaving / d*ing .
she’s trying to branch out & make more friends since moving to tribeca , but she truly doesn’t open up to anyone . if she opens up to you about her life or her past , she truly trusts u , & that means something
she tends to come off as intimidating or .. bitchy , even when she doesn’t mean to . her personality just tends to be dry . she tends to have dark humour , so she has to be careful who she makes jokes around skndfkk
sometimes tends 2 stir up drama even by accident . nskjkf
if she’s not training for a fight , she’ll be out partying every night . dancing on tables & probably getting herself kicked out of whatever bar/club she found herself in that night . doing what she can to get drunk or feel any type of high , whether that be drugs or waking up next to a stranger .
she’s heavily into fashion & always posting cute outfits on instagram , something that caused her following to grow .
she’s lowkey a hopeless romantic ... seeing how her parents fell in love , but it scares tf out of her because of their ending . & she’d literally never admit this to anyone ever .
she’s a new muse & i’m still developing her but i have sm muse so i’m very excited & i rly hope you guys like her !
* 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 :
ok hello if u read that long ass messy shit ur a baddie 🖤 anyway , for wc’s , i literally have so many !! they are all listed here @karinawcs , so take a peek & if you like any of them lmk bc i have tons of headcannons / ideas for all those ! hehe ily let’s plot

okay under a cut because it’s probably long but I’m out of the bath and here’s those tma themed asks
The Eye: If you were an avatar of any entity, which one would it be?
there are so many possible answers to this like wow but I’m caught between the eye because I am Thirsty for knowledge 1000% of the time if someone is talking about something with another person and I am near the conversation but not involved you can bet I’m trying to figure out what’s going on and if I know either of the people I will almost definitely ask what’s going on and be intrusive as hell because I have no self restraint; and the lonely because like I am a very alone person but in the words of my fav jamilah woods I’m not lonely, I’m alone and I feel like that is a very peter lukas vibe, yknow? he enjoys being alone? also I too am a sailor and I would like to mysteriously hang out on my ship in the ocean surrounded by fog with no other human being for miles.
The Spiral: Are you good at math?
listen, I spend all of my free time listening to calculus the musical and if you asked me to I would probably rewrite every song I have ever listened to to be about mathematics. in another universe I am probably a math major and in this universe I am deeply, deeply in love with every single second of martin gardner’s work.
but also no I am not good at math because nobody is good at math, ask any math major and they will tell you we are all terrible at math. engineers (of which I am one) think they’re good at math but they are wrong. that’s how you know I’m meant to be a math major. I know that I’m bad at math. no one can ever be good at math.
anyway in case anyone ever was wondering my favorite number is euler’s number and I almost named my animal crossing new horizons island eigen as in eigenvectors/values because I am a huge fucking nerd.
The End: What would you do with your time if you never died?
literally study every single thing I ever could. like. why would the cullens repeat high school over and over again where you’re just relearning the same shit and not just like. major in every single thing a person could possibly major in. that’s just like. the thing to do.
The Stranger: Are you normally a fan of horror?
not really, but it’s growing on me? I’m like really into psychological horror type stuff and obviously the line between scifi and fantasy and horror is not really a line and especially like things like black mirror that’s scifi gone Wrong is very specifically my jam? but like classic horror stuff has not historically been my thing but like I said. it’s growing on me.
The Lonely: Name a few of your friends and your favorite things about them.
listen. I don’t have any friends. I mean I do, I am literally snapchatting w merle rn but like. I don’t know how to publicly say words about my friends. I don’t know my friends? I know the feelings that I have in relation to them?
god, that sounds. enormously self centered and like. really rude. that is not in any way true. okay let’s try this again.
[redacted]
okay I got waylaid for like 40min doing this writing about my friends and what’s actually going to happen is tomorrow I am going to go back to what I was writing and finish it because I actually do want to sit down and appreciate my friends? because that is a thing everyone should do and also I specifically v much need to because I am not good at feeling close to people so I intentionally downplay how important relationships are to me and that’s objectively Bad and we need to stop doing that.
what I mean to say in the mean time is that I love my friends and here I will put some of their names so they know they are loved and they are in order of how long I’ve known them so no one feels bad about whatever other order they might be in: alex amy musa carter emma lexi quinn kara merle jasper
wow I stopped to look at something on my phone and came across the phone number of someone I used to go sailing with who’s dead now and I cried a little bit so that’s something.
The Desolation: Have you ever been in love?
yes. we’re not going to to talk about that.
The Slaughter: What kind of music do you like?
what a vague and unanswerable question. idk get some idea of some of my music tastes but definitely not all of them via the post I made a little bit ago with songs that start with the letters in my url.
The Vast: Can you swim?
yes, but not particularly well. I mean. I’m a sailor. I swim well enough. but like my mom’s side of the family is a lot of competitive swimmers and I’m definitely not one of them.
The Buried: How do you do in large crowds?
I like the idea of crowds and anonymity and being alone while surrounded but I also get anxious and claustrophobic feeling and I am glad I have a service animal trained in blocking.
The Dark: Dark colors or pastels?
dark colors bc I am goth
The Corruption: Do you kill bugs?
sometimes yes sometimes I put them outside. depends on the bug. spiders I leave alone unless they’re right by my bed. centipedes get killed on sight.
The Web: Are you any good at lying?
I don’t think so but I also don’t lie v often and when I do it’s usually to my mother about school.
The Flesh: Are you flexible?
I am somewhat hypermobile but not particularly flexible. whatever that means.
The Hunt: Would you be a monster hunter?
I have a high pain tolerance, which is a plus, but I am also v chronic pain and so like I would be able to hunt monsters one night but then spend the next three days in bed, so like. probably not.
The Extinction: Would you survive the apocalypse?
oh god, no. I’m disabled.

hyulari . female . she/her ━━ 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳? mai khanh “melee” nguyen signed the contract to 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘶𝘳𝘴. you’ll find the twenty year old bassist arriving the venue in their vw bug. i heard the duchess member can be combative at times but can also be enigmatic once you get to know them which is why melee often reminds me of a cracked phone screen, an always tuned electric guitar, and fingernails chewed to a quick. plus, weren’t they on the front page of a magazine because they were constantly subtweeting anyone who disses the band? although, rumor has it that they worked on a solo ep without the rest of their band knowing. fingers crossed the tabloids don’t find out!
hi! i’m doing my best to write up an intro, but things are hard, you know? anyways, meet melee or mai-- all-round mess, mom friend and bass guitarist extraordinaire.
LIKE THIS POST n I’LL SLIDE INTO UR DMS for PLOTTING.
music >>> anything, that’s the rule.
she was born in cali.
she was a single child until her little sister came along. at least, that’s how she puts it. how else do you account for a sibling that shows up when you’re in your first year of high school? is she hella guilty that she left her home to play in the duchess and, thus, didn’t really get to partake in her younger sibling’s life? yes. would she change anything? no.
she grew up with really nothing. her parents ran a korean grocery (it’s vietnamese, because we’re vietnamese! her mom always said, but if you looked at the brands-- it was korean) and so she did her best to help out where she could.
but, when she was eight, for her birthday, she got someone’s hand-me-down guitar-- and it was over.
i suppose you could call her a prodigy? but it’s more like she played that too-big guitar every waking moment, knowing that this was what she wanted to do for the rest of her life.
while even then the sight of her onstage was... magnetic, it was safe to say that her stage presence was a little chaotic. at one of her performances, got her the name melee and, with her habit for getting into squabbles with nearly everyone she came into contact with, the nickname stuck.
for years, really, just as a kid, she hustled. played guitar and sang at every local event she could find. and, eventually, she switched from a standard electric to the bass and she uploaded guitar covers to youtube. they’re still up there-- a testament to her early promise n talent-- but they never really became viral or anything.
ig this is where the rest of the members got in contact with her but also i mean ??? who knows ??? you know???
so yeah. music >>> anything. but now that she’s in the duchess, that also means the band >>> anything. right?
outside the band, her personal relationships have always been a little shaky. she’s still young and kinda naive, but she also refuses to acknowledge that and has a tendency to leap before she looks. combine this with being very protective of the group and the possibility that she’s still-- not so sure if the newest addition to it is what’s going to be best, and you really have a garbage fire. she’s very touchy about perceived slights against the band.
she’s not managed to get into a fistfight yet, but she’s never minced words when it comes to how she feels. subtweeting is her passion, apparently.
but... if u actually get close? she’d lay her life on the line for you. music >>> anything, but sometimes it gets in the way of her emotional wellbeing and growth. maybe she’ll learn to put herself and her needs first.
then again, this is melee we’re talking about.
PERSONALITY –
[ + ] generous, loyal, charismatic, enigmatic, talented, hard-working, witty, caring, entrepreneurial, melodramatic.
[ - ] mercurial, attention-seeking, short-sighted, naive, guarded, obsessive, reckless, combative,
-
EXTRA
her parents ran a vietnamese (broadly asian) grocery and that’s how she grew up, sipping on yakult, sitting quietly behind a counter, head on his hand, watching people push their rusty shopping carts through the narrow aisles of cans.
there’s a joyless moment when you’re behind the counter—you see all the people passing by and you catch glimpses of their lives. but you never really get to partake in it. and, even though you know exactly what aisle and what shelf, they can find their favorite brand of yakisoba, you never really get a chance to do more than ask if they liked it.
and i suppose. she always longed for it. to have something real, for once. to live a life where he wasn’t just living on the sidelines.
-
her parents said it once. cried about it. they didn’t want her to know, but she was just behind the corner where they couldn’t see her.
“she wants to leave, you know,“ her mother said, rubbing the back of her neck, “but i don’t think she’s ready.”
her father sighed, “come on, linh. ready or not, we’re not going to be able to stop her. we’re just going to be here for her when she falls.“
when. not if. her mother teared up and mai shook her head. they were wrong to worry, to doubt her. they were all wrong.
she would show them.
WANTED PLOTS + CONNECTIONS
someone who really knew her before she was famous. bonus points if they had a falling out and this is them reconnecting. (messyyyy)
someone she’s teaching the guitar/has taught the guitar (and bc i love angst... has used the power of their guitar talent against her)
a frenenemy
her “in” with the industry
i really kinda want melee to be ‘discovered’ like u saw a video of her or witnessed her performing early on and u were like... look. i think u can make it. here’s my phone number. idk if u were actively involved in her life or not, but just the concept.
a bad influence
someone has convinced her that she might be better solo. was this you? she regrets recording the ep... but also... there were some cuts on there-- that weren’t trash.
someone who is telling her to act up for the cameras / knows that she has a easy trigger and will go off.
a mentor
someone she looks up to as they try to navigate through this messy world together.
a mentee
she thinks she can take you under her wing. she’s wrong, ofc, her life is spiraling out of control.
a band enemy !!! this is absolutely something i want !!!! someone who hates her band just to hate the band !! and the two of u will bicker all the time.
a crush (either someone having a crush on her or vice versa. she’s naive to the world in general so she might be really stupidly Oblivious.)
look !!! anything !!! i want the world !!!
