Moodboard // modern day echo
echo grew up in the foster care system after her childhood home caught fire, she was the only one who made it out; leaving her with vivid memories of her father’s desperate screams and her mother’s sobbing. she entered foster care at eight and from there she was frequently moved from house to house, but never adopted. however she did spend ages fifteen to eighteen in the care of a woman named nia who already has three sons of her own, echo got along well with her sons but overall she suffered years of abuse and neglect in that home, it shaped her as a person as she learned quickly that she was better off staying quiet.
now echo works as a tattoo artist and lives with her boyfriend; bellamy. she gets distant sometimes but bellamy understands that she can’t help it. she’s still in contact with one of nia’s sons (roan) but didn’t keep contact with the other two after aging out of foster care.
