so, honey, sing! 💛

lots of internal monologue and even dialogue with oneself

social awkwardness

despite longing for connection, avoiding it because they are not used to it

or: seeking connection anywhere they can, even in the tiny interactions with employees and strangers

making their home a very comforting space since they spend so much time in it

not feeling invited to activities unless explicitly told they are, and even then doubting it

not even considering the possibility of talking to someone

feeling warmth in their chest after a good talk with someone, only for it to twist into dread and doubt later on

one of the few times I decide I will draw fanart and it is for Hades because of course it will be. Artemis, inspired by a Paul Manship bronze sculpture I saw 1000000 years ago that I never stopped thinking about (picture from the Smithsonian Art Museum below)
