The Devil in Reverse: When has your character suffered from refusing to break off an unhealthy relationship?
Ā Desperation. Hope. Comfort. Someone to hold and be held in the darkest times, when there was no light, no hope, no comfort, only blackness and claws digging into their desperation, a void that never seemed to end.Ā
Ā Friends, enemies, lovers. Through each fading day they were all three, until the day a question was posed, ripping the wool pulled over her eyes to the truth.Ā
āSelā¦ have you ever thought aboutā¦ us? About giving up this fun for something meaningful ā with me?ā
There it was, that truth, as naked as she was now. It left a hollowed hole in her chest.Ā āIs that what you want?ā
āIām asking you. You know what I want. Iāve told you a thousand times, darling.ā
Sel froze, her thoughts drifting.Ā āI have.ā
āCare to give it a try? Give us a shot?ā
No, no, noā¦ Stained crimson lips pursed she fell silent, pleading with the Light and demons alike to make this situation disappear. Make it just a dream, a nightmare. She knew she couldnāt trust him and never had, but the hidden truth was she did love him, always would. How can you be with someone youāre too afraid to trust, Sel? That hopelessness she felt, the desperation to hold on magnified tenfold,Ā āIāllā¦try.ā
āIf youāre never going to give me a straight answer I canāt do this. Iām tired of these games, Sel. Forget I ever asked.ā

The Tower in Reverse: When has your characterās actions led to disaster?
āWhat do you mean pulling that wire means itāll explode?ā Veri kicked the box that had arrived at his door, only prompting its ticking to accelerate,Ā āOhā¦ā
The Star in Reverse: When has your character lost faith?
āThe Light is a finicky thing, bending it and using it to your will is more efficient than believing in some divine nonsense. Iāve never had faith.ā Cellys scoffed, obviously hiding a distant, painful memory.Ā
The Moon in Reverse: When does your character mistrust their feelings or intuition?
((I wanted to write something for this too but Iām afraid I blanked so ā Canerae mistrusts both frequently so frequently in fact that itās a reason she took so long to master a bow. That and picking one up later in life. ))
