Meanwhile Evangeline dicovering new preferences and things about herself:

random dead poets headcanons - modern au

i feel like all i do is crank out headcanons and not actually write (even though i definitely have a dps fic that needs updating…) anyway heres dps headcanons

i always start with neil and i think its cause he’s my baby and i like to think i just #get him anyway - neil love gilmore girls. a lot. i know next to nothing about gilmore girls so i couldnt tell you who his favorite rory boyfriend is but he will die on the hill that lane and dave deserved to be together

knox has run through the most phones because he always drops them in the toilet - he keeps loads and loads of rice, not for eating, but just in case he needs to make a last minute apple genius bar to fix his phone - its worked like 25% of the time

meeks works at a barnes and noble. he clocks so many hours there because he just loves working there. his barnes and noble has two floors.

neil and ginny host the tonys watch party every year. its one of those things thats always a fever dream. the best but also worst party was the 2017 tonys when great comet was up against dear evan hansen. if you so much as mention great comet to either of them, they will either devolve into crying, longwinded ranting, or put the entire album on and explain it to you

charlie is a gleek. a diehard gleek. he relates to santana on a spiritual level and can quote the iconic santana/quinn hallway fight verbatim in his sleep as well as her rant to kurt

todd has the job stability comparable with trish from austin and ally. he only gets a steady one when meeks recommends him for barnes and noble. they work all their shifts together. its incredible.

the poets have a quizbowl team at their favorite bar - each of them have their knowledge strengths and they have an ongoing win streak of four weeks (which at their bar, the prize is free drinks. so. do with that what you will)

pitts is an avatar: the last airbender purist (i mean who isnt tbh) and self-identifies with the earthbenders

cameron becomes THAT film nerd who swears tarantino is his god and that pulp fiction is the greatest movie of all time but he doesnt actually believe that - his favorite movie is the obscure animated film “we’re back! a dinosaur’s story” (1993)

Bruno: I have decided to use my powers for evil and ruin friendships over dinner - what is the best musical of all time?

Dolores: The Phantom of the Opera, fight me on it.

Camilo: I will! As the theatre kid of this house, my answer is the big and right one. And I’m picking Mean Girls and Legally Blonde because they are the most iconic!!

Isabela: You wanna talk about iconic? Okay, bitch, then look no further than Audrey II. A plant that kills people and sings, fucking supreme icon status! Little Shop of Horrors is the best musical!

Luisa: In your dreams, sis. Best musical is clearly Heathers or Hamilton. You don’t get better than musicals starting with ‘H’.

Félix: Nice try, but you can’t get better than Moulin Rouge.

Pepa: Have you all just forgotten that Chicago exists!?

Alma: West Side Story was always mine and Pedro’s favourite musical.

Julieta: I’ve always quite liked Waitress—

Bruno: Uh no, that one’s boring. Now, Wicked, is the best musical for so many reasons. I relate to Elphaba on a spiritual level.

Mirabel: Well, you’re all wrong. It should be SIX but the historical inaccuracy ruins it. Therefore Les Misérables easily wins this competition, such a beautiful musical adaption of one of the best books ever written.

Bruno: Wasn’t Wicked based on a book?

Mirabel, scoffs: Not a very good one.

Antonio: My favourite is The Lion King! All of the animal puppets are so cool!

Agustín: You know, my favourite is Shrek.

Everyone else:

Everyone else: What the fuck?

My Chemical Romance fan Percy headcanons because i finally got around to writing them down

He's a millenial and canonically punk so obviously he was an Mcr kid and is now an Mcr adult

He actually got into it BEFORE The Black Parade dropped so he finds the jokes about listening to Mcr using exclusively Welcome To The Black Parade to be hella annoying

His favorite album is a tie between Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge and Danger Days,the former of which he refuses to let go of as his fave out of nostalgia

And his favorite songs are Drowning Lessons,Helena,Thank you for the Venom,Give 'em hell kid,Mama,Not that kind of Girl,Summertime,Bulletproof Heart,Party Poison and The Kids from Yesterday

Gerard is his idol because of Gerard being openly genderqueer/nonbinary with he/him pronouns in the early mid-2000s and Percy turning out to be transfem bigender and using he/she/they/neos.How goofy and edgy and cunty he is only helped her stan him even more(also for clarification,i say 'openly' as in presentation,not out of the closet!)

Both buys official merch and diy's personalized editions

Used to watch Mcr song Amv's religiously

Sally is Killjoy-adjacent out of knowing so many songs because Percy listened/listens to them so much and the fun facts she also knows because Percy of dropping them

She got Nico into it contrary to popular assumption that it was the reverse and Nico actually got her into Animal Crossing.It happened inbetween the year from Botl and Tlo as they spent it reconnecting and Helena is 'their' song in the most platonic sense possible /srs-it symbolizes Nico realizing he deserves better than Hades' abuse and deciding to stay with Percy as his new sister and Sally as his soon to be official adoptive mom

They passed their love for it onto Hazel and she has it as a special interest and is even more enthutiastic about it than Percy is.In Son,she once lulled her to sleep with 'Thank you for the Venom' and Hazel sleepmuttered about how she saw her as a sister too and it startled Percy because her egg hadn't cracked yet

Selfshipper moment incoming again like my autistic hcs post again,SORRY,Percy and Lex went on a quest for Hecate in their senior year of Goode High and she repayed them with Mcr concert tickets so they went to it as a date and had the time of their lives and went to Dairy Queen afterwards for post-concert refills(read:food).Lex 'owns' a Demolition Lovers t-shirt that's actually Percy's but they steal it all the time in the classic girlfriend move

Makes Mcr themed food like Killjoy symbol blue marshmallow cupcakes and a strawberry/blackberry juice and vanilla extract combo drink she dubbed 'Three Cheers For Sweet Juice'

Huuuge fan of The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys comics and relates to Mike Milligram on a spiritual level and has him as his icon on a blue background in his group chat app

[shuttershocky]

I have now finished Mahoyo.

What the FUCK is the Fifth Magic? Do we seriously have no idea other than "It can be used for time travel and Aoko using it contributes to the eventual destruction of the universe?" Also, I was previously under the impression that the term "path to the Root" as it relates to True Magic simply meant ways of using magecraft to make contact with it, as I would expect that the Root is metaphysical and omnipresent in nature. It would then follow that reaching the Root is more of a spiritual act than a physical one, but the text says that grandpa Aozaki discovered a path to the Root in Misaki, and then sealed it off, implying that it's a physical location you can just walk to?? Hello????

I'm also still baffled by the notion of how True Magic is actually inherited, because while the Fifth Magic and the Aozaki Magic Crest are talked about in tandem as far as the Aozaki inheritance goes, I can't remotely imagine that you could pass on Magic through a Crest — that would feel almost like reducing it to the same level as magecraft, and it's mentioned that there are conditions for its use that Aoko doesn't meet until the finale. I'm just hrgrjrgrjegrnhrnr

I did enjoy the finale of Mahoyo, and I'm not surprised that I walked away without a lot of answers, but it's very frustrating. It feels akin to like if UBW progressed all the way from start to finish without explaining what Unlimited Blade Works actually is and why Shirou can do it

The 5th Magic is Not Actually Time Travel like the TM wiki and the other Magics might have you think, but Consumption, though it might be easier to think of it as entropy. Aoko is able to burn through even time itself in order to manipulate time. In this case she burned a hole through the last five seconds (or was it 10? i forget) in order to accelerate herself 10 years into the future (Aoko is incredibly magecraft efficient) where she exists at her prime, and then tosses the burnt time far into the future where she doesn't have to think about it.

Touko angrily says that such an irresponsible manipulation of cosmic forces will surely cause the death of the universe if not fixed, but Aoko's not the thinking sort of girl. She definitely screwed up and has to fix that now, but until Nasu writes any Mahoyo sequels we will never know exactly how badly. If you think the concept of generating enough energy to burn through time in order to manipulate it sounds very familiar to a certain 72 Demons in a Trenchcoat, then congrats, you now know where FGO got it. Without the 5th Magic and with a MUCH larger target in the beginning of time however, Goetia needed a far more elaborate ritual with a year and a half's worth of execution time.

You are right in that the Root is not a physical location. However, unless you are Kokutou where the Root is your wife, any attempt at accessing it requires land capable of sustaining whatever ritual you are planning up. This is why the Fuyuki Holy Grail War is specifically in Fuyuki, otherwise a backwater town populated by the mage equivalent of country hicks—the Tohsaka's land was rich in mana and could sustain something as intensive as the Holy Grail War. Misaki is similar, a piece of land where a high amount of leylines cross through AND not under the ownership of the Mages' Association, meaning that a mage on it could do what they pleased in complete privacy. Whatever Grandpa Aozaki did, he found both a method to access the Root and a location in Misaki that would allow him to do it, and then sealed it off (whether physically by preventing access to the location or metaphysically by deactivating the ritual is not clear), but before he did that he got his prize of the 5th Magic before getting the fuck out so that no one else could use it.

The condition for Aoko to use the 5th Magic is simply her will to do it. Ever since she was first able to cast the 5th (implied to be a traumatic event of some kind, possibly by her Grandfather bringing her to the site of the open path), she's been stalked by the Red Shadow. Whether it is the Counter Force seeing her destructive Magic as an abomination or Death itself, Aoko sees it whenever she's alone, and it makes her afraid. She refuses to use the 5th even when fighting the Flat Snark or when her throat is being torn out by Beowulf because she would rather die violently than find out what exactly that thing is. She only finds the will to cast the Fifth to save someone else she cares about (see: Illya casting the Third to save Shirou), but some quick thinking by using the time she was erasing to time travel to her prime also allowed her to fight off the Red Shadow's attack, even if she might have just doomed the universe by doing so.

An interesting thing about Mahoyo's finale is that it kind of implies Aoko and Tohno Shiki's meeting was more than just random chance now. Aoko's powers are a danger to the world, a Destroyer figure to contrast her sister, who is an architect, a dollmaker, a doctor, etc. Essentially, a Builder. That she runs into and then mentors Shiki who acts as a Death figure in Tsukihime's narrative is a bit too fitting to be a random coincidence anymore, especially now that the Tsukihime Remake moved the setting out of Misaki entirely.

LIFTING THE SPOILER WARNING ON THIS POST FOR LAUNCH DAY

Here's my initial analysis and thoughts on Asuka's ending (character episode) in Tekken 8

caught yearning in 1080p

handsome

thinking abt getting students now that the Zaibatsu ate shit (btw you don't find out the Zaibatsu is pretty much on track to being done with no leader again, which is why they continue the tournament presumably after the final battle unless you look through the character episodes, not the main story, for some fucking reason)

Asuka finally smiled at her accepting her and the feeling is mutual, this ending had great role reversal in the sense instead of previously only getting clear insight into Lili's feelings and thoughts now we're openly getting them from Asuka in response- she also felt tempted to give in to her old reaction first think later ways but here she's finally thinking before deciding it doesn't matter why, she enjoys fighting Lili and she finally seems to recognize what Lili's schemes are about on a level (wanting Asuka's attention and getting back at her for having lost), this is the closest so far we've ever gotten to a "I like you too"

this is on top of the teasing and compliment she gave Lili's ability in the same scene, and also correcting Lili on the Kazama Motto Asuka learned, which only Asuka could have told her at some point suggesting further closeness

"Softness overcomes hardness" you two are (HOPEFULLY) starting to change your relationship to be softer (also the hilarious hypocrisy of Asuka BARELY being a person living by any softness in practice)

I love that she even refers to Lili as "That noble (rich) girl", an ojou-sama, which is far better than calling her by nothing or using a rude form of You (anta) as in the past (and generally she's given up calling Lili by rude terms be it in the story mode or otherwise including Shaheen's ending, which is honestly more about AsuLili than him lol, it's also incredible seeing Asuka glad Lili's life was protected and joking about Lili being a handful with someone else)

And despite provoking Asuka in a very shitty way reminiscent of Feng, the premise of this ending is Asuka beating Lili at the tournament so Lili will honor her word of putting Asuka's dojo back the way it was before she bought it- which Lili does after losing rather than refuse out of spite, even if she then uses taking it in a fight to provoke Asuka again, it's nice that she IS willing to listen to Asuka when it comes to promises

honestly if you cut the entire scene into only my screenshots here it still looks so fucking gay

Video source ( @ 1:03 )

This is the de-facto best Asuka ending yet, at last she's happy, hopeful, not confused, and at some form of peace and connection in her life

ALSO ASUKA DIDN'T CALL LILI A DINGBAT SHE CALLED HER AHOU (Idiot/Moron) LIKE ALWAYS AND IT WAS SOFT THIS TIME 😭😭😭😭

Plus Asuka might finally get the dojo back up and become the next leader with Jin's image being fixed and thus how people would see Asuka since they're related, as well as the current war being over- though Reina's new devil bullshit will probably ruin this in the future

EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION

PAIR OF BIRDS; BIRD MOTIF FOR KAZAMAS RETURNS

I doubt these are Jun's birds specifically it's more likely just symbolic of Asuka and Lili if it means anything at all. Also doesn't have to specify meaning lovebirds, in general their characters will always be put together. But it is funny how Jun's birds always appear to show her connection to someone she loves, so there could be a parallel here that Asuka's bird imagery would represent the same sense of connection. If it is a visual metaphor for lovebirds though by the time we get Tekken 9 then, the cinema of it all.

ALSO Harada has said Jun attracts animals because of her spiritual mastery over martial arts. She's at a level of power where animals don't run because of sensing her aura; she can suppress her fighting spirit. With how at peace AND in control of herself Asuka is in this ending, maybe the birds imply she can move in a similar direction from here on. And it makes sense too because Asuka has returned to a state of equilibrium now that she doesn't have the stress of the world being in chaos affecting her. As a person who prefers being in control, she's back to feeling some control over her life.

----

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE:

1. It's great that the tone of their relationship is now friendlier, but like in story mode and other places they appear as a pair, we're never shown anything on how they started transitioning from fighting all the time to agreeing to listen and partner up in general, nevermind during a global war they're supposed to have their own personal stakes in beyond not wanting to die (those personal stakes ended up being entirely irrelevant anyway which is it's own problem)

There's a problem present where you're shown the end result of an emotional shift with none of the journey or even a simple scene explaining how they got there, much like the main story and other characters in general many plot points and character changes are resolved off screen showing only the results with no explanation the majority of the time. In the main story this gets even more egregious because even how a character knows specific information usually doesn't get explained at all either unless it relates to Jin understanding the devil gene. This writing makes a lot of things simply happen like it's checking off a list.

In essence, WHERE is a scene connecting Asuka who did nothing but fight Lili and get pissed with her to the Asuka who's tolerant of her, is more catty and accepting than outright angry, is now willing to joke and play around with her, who taught Lili the Kazama Motto she learned (though I guess this one you can say Lili found it while looking up Asuka's family, something we ALSO don't get Asuka's thoughts on beyond surprise) and so on

2. The fact this scene ends with provoking another fight, as much as I like that it's friendly now, isn't the best direction. This fits again into problem 1; there's no on screen room to let these characters breathe and illustrate what made them change now to the viewer. There's no fresh angle given about their relationship outside fighting or even a new approach on their relationship within it. There's no pause in the formula which many people are tired of (and people are already back to calling Asuka a useless piece of shit who's a complete fucking joke, and I can't really blame them entirely because on a surface level all they see is the exact same situation as it's been for twenty years of cutscenes).

Also the logic of having this scene exist is confusing in itself. Nothing in the game story clarified if Asuka sat the tournament out or did participate but was eliminated and decided to follow Lili's progress in Rome as a spectator. A scene explaining either of those would give better weight and context to this one.

3. Zero mention of Asuka's father or his current condition

4. Having Lili imitate what Feng Wei did to dojos like Asuka's is the cruelest way she's ever provoked her. Whereas before it was often ridiculous, silly, and teasing, involving an event that led Asuka to spiral adds something uncharacteristically spiteful toward her from Lili's end. Insofar as what Lili has previously used to get her attention anyway. Keeping Asuka's trauma out of it has always seemed to be a line Lili was willing to respect. And it's off too because this is happening when they're supposed to be becoming friends/are friends now. It's too personal to be brushed off the way it is.

The only way I can rationalize it is if Asuka has let go of her anger towards what Feng did in part (but she still has a special intro where she wants to attack him on sight saying they finally meet so, I don't fuckin know, that may as well have been included as an easter egg if they're gonna do nothing with it) or she never really gave enough of a shit about the entire thing in the first place. You can make a loose argument using prior games to show Asuka never really cared about the revenge aspect as much- but her behavior sorta contradicts this at the same time. So really who fucking knows. Based on how she reacts here I guess it's not a big deal at this point cuz she doesn't get mad and jumps into messing around with Lili like a friend anyway.

Maybe this could be explained too by whatever made them act friendly now in the first place, but again we never saw that. So instead it comes out worse than if we knew.

5. WHY THE FUCK DID THEY MENTION THE ENTIRE MAIN KAZAMA FAMILY WAS ELIMINATED BY OGRE IN THE STORY MODE THEN HAVE THE NEWS NOT IMPACT ASUKA AT ALL

We also never see them discuss what Lili knows about the family in any depth between themselves

Viva le sex gay I guess but now I have more questions than answers and that's a problem when the game acts like I've been given answers it never provided. I got something I wanted but with nothing to show for it.

EDIT 1/27/2024 : However that won't discount that I do love what I received and the potential it represents; I adore this shit.

[radioactivewisdom]

Idk if this is silly of me to ask this question, but, what's your take on the relation women have with wealth/money? How come we have such narrow range of women millionaires/billionaires? For one self-made rich woman, there's always more than 3 women who got to the same level through divorce or inheritance.

I read a study that found that 91% males are more likely to invest in stocks than females. Amongst my friends too, it's all the guys getting into trading & investing. Trying to get my (girls)friends interested was futile.

I've found similar ratio of women to men within spiritual spaces too. The guys discuss all sorts of ontological breakdowns possible within the religious-teachings(mostly Buddhist & Vedic), while my friends have got no interest in it.

I don't mean to stereotype/downplay my friends or put the guys on a pedestal, they're both doing what satisfies them, it's just something I've observed.

Thankyou!

Not silly, thank you for asking :) When it comes to millionaires and beyond, men are going to be over presented because of their ability to better manipulate physical reality. Motivated by lust, acquiring more resources equals more sex for men. Womens lust, while just as strong, has a different aim. Knowing most men will abandon them as soon as an orgasm is obtained, their focus becomes more singular. Making a bunch of money doesn’t benefit women’s worldly aims, because they’re looking for “love.”

When it comes to investing and being strategic with finances, women are less likely because of wanting to maintain an image. Women who buy into femininity will restrict themselves, and the activities they participate in. Since the slow population believes “woman is opposite of man,” women won’t show as much interest in “masculine” pursuits. Also, the heterosexually inspired mating system is sex in exchange for resources. Being partnered up is as far as many women think in terms of financial planning.

Women overall dumb themselves down because it’s considered more attractive. There are studies on this, they purposely act stupid in the hopes of being deemed desirable by men. This leads to women wasting their lives, harnessing most of their brain power into trying to find effective strategies to make a man stay, and (barely) raising their children.

I don’t agree with the hoarding of resources and think an obsession with material wealth is bad, but self sufficiency is important. Men tend to take this too far, since their aim isn’t just to support themselves. Women veer in the opposite direction, downplaying their need to take care of themselves because they expect someone else to do it. Whether that’s a man, their children, or feminism. Intellectual and spiritual pursuits are important, but can also be motivated by greed and envy.

[nijigasakilove]

“You don’t have to care about what others are doing or what they’re worrying about” once again, otona cure continues to hit a little too close to home lol.

Just love how grown up everything feels in this show. Plot is slow so far, but just seeing the girls go through relatable issues is so nice. Mai’s in particular I feel on a spiritual level. Sometimes you’re just in different stages of life than other people. Everyone has their own clock and there’s no use comparing yourself to others. The biggest challenge of adulthood is just becoming ok with the uncertainty.

Ngl though, breaking up over text after damn near being to the point of marriage is kinda wild from the dude. They didn’t specify what issues they were having, but you’d think a face to face meeting at least.

Cool to see some more returning faces from the original show too!

[justallihere]

A bit late to this chapter since i've been traveling but it was a TREAT when you dropped it.

Not sure why I found Dain and Cam pummeling each other was attractive to me but I'm rolling with it.

Is there a potential Tessa and Cam pairing I see 👀. I am DYING to know what plans you have for Cam, does he want to be a rider now that he has the freedom??? or is he going to continue assisting in different ways.

After IF, I understood what RY meant that Dain was going to have a redemption arc and I am HERE for your version too (though I was initially hesitant with RY lmao)

As the eldest daughter in an immigrant family, I relate to Mira on a spiritual level, this line 😭. Someone hug Mira PLEASE

I believed in everything they told us. I thought I was doing the right thing. I thought I was making a difference. I thought that I could make my brother’s death mean something by protecting our sister, the only person we both ever loved more than each other, but I couldn’t even fucking do that, Brennan. He told us that having a little sister was the most important thing in the world. There wasn’t a better or bigger job than being a big sister and a big brother.

Xaden really told Brennan, fuck around and find out in regards to his wife and how they make her feel.

I love all the hugs and physical touch that is happening between these two. The slow burn was WORTH IT

Tairn being such a girl dad to Violet, I AM SOBBING. He probably felt so much anger when he couldn't do anything for Vi when she was being tortured.

Brennan telling Vi that she has to finish her education is so older sibling coded. He's trying to pull the older brother giving his younger sibling advice card but Vi is like Im the goddamn queen and your superior officer LMAO.

Vi wanting everyone to love Aretia as much as she does was so gut-wrenching and idk why 😭 (and Mira being extremely uncomfortable in Aretia and Vi being sad about that made ME sad)

My only thought for this line was "whipped"

Xaden only shrugged. “Anything for you.”

Hope you got to enjoy your weekend and relax a bit <3 Thank you for gifting us this chapter, it made my week

The Dain & Cam fight almost involved Sloane and Tessa “watching for technique” 💀

“Staring is rude,” Violet noted mildly as she approached.

Sloane’s face lit up, but she said evenly, “We’re not staring.”

“We’re. . . watching for technique,” Tessa added with a smile.

Liam coughed pointedly.

“Technique,” Sloane agreed unconvincingly.

I’m keeping my Cam plans to myself!! My man isn’t done causing problems yet though

Mira deserves THE WORLD. She is just doing her best to be the best big sister. She needs so many hugs

Xaden was like “I don’t care if we’re friends, I don’t care if she’s your sister, she’s my wife, upset her again and you die” and Brennan took that shit seriously

Tairn!! I felt a lil bad leaving Andarna out of that moment but there’s just something about the Violet & Tairn bond that demanded that needed to be only for them

Brennan: “you should—“

Violet: “no”

Violet finally has a home she’s happy and safe and comfortable in when she’s never had that her whole life and she just wants everyone else to feel the same and get to experience it with her 🥺

Xaden is, in fact, whipped

Thank you!! 🩷🩷

progress: i try to update every week but nothing's promised 🥲

snippet here:

Years ago he’d learned to mask his handwriting, so now he could easily forge any handwriting he wanted, if he was given a good example of it being used. There was something extremely interesting in how each person connected two letters to each other. How they wrote an “ar” was different from how they would write an “or”, how much the words were apart from each other and how much pressure they put in the paper told a lot about someone, to him it was like zodiac signs. He didn’t always have to copy other handwritings, not unless he wanted to throw the blame on that person. He just had to invent a brand new writing style, and be careful to not slip his between the cracks. And that’s exctly what he did in the letter. Before Jesper could finish his monologue about how much he had missed out in the past few months holed up in his office, a blackmail threat was ready to be closed inside the paper envelope, just the signature was missing, but he didn’t bother to add it. A proper threat always had to be anonymous, it was always better to give as little information you could. Everything could be used against you. The maroon wax sealed the opening with a satisfying fizzling and a single wisp of smoke. The clock chimed on the wall, it was already 6 pm, he had to go finish some assignments.

characters:

anne: the rogue from where i took the title.

shes a 17 y/o girl who lives in a bunker in a forest, on the run from the government as she's a "high traitor and liar who must be destroyed".

she has the ability to modify her face and appereance for a while and she has a prosthetic arm connected to her virtual friend Indigo.

thanks to it she's able to teleport and keep track of various things.

alexander: the son of the dictator, he's lived his life in a bubble until 2 years ago, when he finally managed to get more social contacts with people and (slightly) catch up on what he's missed, behind his father's back of course.

he meets anne when she's captured and figures she's his best shot at escaping his father domain.

snippet:

This time, she materialised in the shadows behind a bulding, which gave her enough cove for her to shift her facial features. Her nose a little bigger, her hair some shades brighter, her eyes more elongated and greener than the grass growing outside her doorstep and a splash of freckles to top it all off. It was way harder to do it without a mirror, and way more dangerous. For all she knew, she could’ve been looking like a girl with a fish head, and she didn’t know if that would be better or worse than looking like herself. Anne took out a hat and a silk scarf, she wrapped it around her neck and jumped in a group of tourists gazing at the city. In no time she was in the square, vendor’s stands circling her, colourful flags waving in the wind. She could’ve stayed like that for ever, stuck in the memories of her old life, but she knew it couldn’t last forever.
