Was thinking about Shelby, both her sire and fledgling dead, and the sort of supernatural grief that comes with that as a vampire. The tragedy of these three makes me crazy, and especially how it all falls onto Shelby in the end. The idea that she alone has to bear grief for them both whilst also being angry at Pyro, his blood on her hands, and knowing how close she was was to dealing with Avid herself. The amount of conflicting thoughts and feelings in her, aough.

In my mind this piece was called "Missing Links", the idea that in this siring line Shelby was what bridged Avid and Pyro, and with both of them gone she links no one despite knowing she is meant to. Similarly, with Pyro gone she has lost her link to Scott in the siring line. I know this has no affect on anything but also I feel like in a supernatural sense it would hurt, to feel disconnected from your coven like she has been.

Edit putting my process under the cut for under the cut for fun <3
