a boy filled with newfound secrets, a boy becoming. i washed in the lake and came out clean but not whole. change is the perfect art form and i am so good at it now, every day waking up crawling out of my own skin. there is nothing more cleansing than turning into someone else.

i long to close my eyes and cut myself free of my body. i sleep with a knife under my pillow, with scissors in my hand, i sharpen my teeth into fangs and my nails into claws before bed, i will chew myself free if i have to.

these are the thoughts that keep me up at night: will i bathe in the blood, golden, burning? will it hurt to tear open my own throat? will i like it?

I've had some trouble coming up with music to represent my characters and I thought it would be fun to see what other people think of when they check them out! I'm mainly looking for songs for C'zel but if you look at Arachneae and think of the perfect song that's awesome! Anyway... Yeah! Just putting this out here and we'll see what happens! Have fun!

Bright lights, the flicker of candles on proud antlers, dancing in a field of poppies, spring rain...

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help me with getting the big curled ram-lookin antlers, the magpie pelt, and the magpie mask? It would be awesome if you would, thanks! I'm gonna be over by the old oak so look for my picto (shown in my icon) and a deer with default everything and poppies on its antlers.

Could anyone help me out with getting the magpie mask, space beluga pelt, and/or the antelope antlers? I'm in the old oak and I'm recognizable by my picto (shown in my icon) and the purple flowers on my antlers. Other than that I have all default... I'd really appreciate it!
