funky little gremlin

Action, reaction.

Push, pull.

Question, answer.

Tick, tock.

Balance the cosmic scales or risk ruin. Fight fire with water but smarten up before you drown in it. Don't fall prey to monsters in the dark, but shield your eyes from blinding light. Understand what the world has given you, and know what you will give back to it.

What are you, Delphine?

(-daughter of a wizard imprisoned and tortured for illegal time travel experimentation, widow of a slain death eater, secret keeper, liar, killer, life saver, mad witch, mad scientist, vessel of pain and fury and a thousand words and nothing at all-)

Are you the question or the answer?
