Forever mourning the fact that not only does Cyran canonically HATE Merlin, but Merlin considered Cyran to be her best friend during her academy days, and in Tower of Memory, it is revealed she frequently documented their time together because she loved spending time with him.

She kept a portrait of their graduation in her tower years after they parted ways, and her favorite / most treasured memory star is of a star shower Cyran had casted because she genuinely thought it was beautiful and wanted to capture the moment to treasure.

In lieu of my work hiring two more people, i just had my hours majorly reduced and have an entire week's worth of shifts withheld from me. Meaning from 6/10 to 6/18, i have been deprived of having any shifts which means no income for me.

Thus, the original intent of coms has been put on the back burner and is now just so I can get by for the week. I unfortunately work retail so our schedules can be changed at any given time even after its been officially printed for the week. 💔

Despite her high energy, childish demeanor, Serina is actually quite sleep deprived.

One of the massive drawback of being revived from the dead, is she is cursed to relive her death in her sleep every night. Down to every last miniscule detail.

She already bears the scars of her death (her sister's handprints around her throat, and several gash scars on her forehead, one for every time her head was smashed with a shovel).

Serina relives the memory of her death in vivid detail every night in her dreams, down to every last word that was said, the pain of her sister's hands squeezing around her throat, the chill of the wet dirt enveloping her in the rain, the blood that ran down her face as her head was smashed in yet even then she didn't perish.

Every last excruciating detail as she was slowly buried alive, with a broken neck and multiple head wounds, slowly suffocating under the thick, wet dirt until she draws her last breath.

And then she wakes up, unable to breathe.
