First couple posts are backstory.)) Before Becoming Claire Skye A pale figure sits in a dark room, hunched over a laptop and typing. The only thing illuminating the space is the screen, revealing the tired hazel eyes of a young teenager, adorned with dark circles. The teen has a chat application of some kind going.

mah1na Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) ((Content Warning: suicidal thoughts)) The End and the Beginning Years later, we see that same person, now with much shorter hair, all grown up. Instead of the relaxed gait of their former typing, now it’s shaky, with trembling hands. The surroundings are different also, instead now a dorm room. A school pride poster is up on the wall- University of Virginia: School of Medicine. Quote clearskylinez: i’m sorry guys MaryBeloved: For what…?

I want you to take three deep breaths for me. clearskylinez: not this time im sorry XDarkAngelX: I am so sorry for my reaction. Listen, you’re 21 now right? They have no control over you.
