Please don't read this. [break][break]
Just pretend that I'm some happy go-lucky guy who lived in the best of environments and have nothing to offer anyone. No tragic story to sympathize with, just think of me as a nobody.[break][break]
Can you do that for me?[break][break]
Please.[break][break]
Don't go any further.[break][break]

Curiosity killed the cat, y'know.

I asked you to not go any further and you still did. You must really like tragedies or maybe you want to know more about me or want to sympathize with me, heck, you may even want to make fun of me with your friends. I don't know. To be fair, I don't care. Because after I say this it'll be lost on anyone who tries to think of me. [break][break]
I won't confirm the events recorded.[break][break]
I won't deny the events recorded.[break][break]
And to be honest, you're pretty messed up for wanting to read this.[break][break]
But I guess we're all messed up in some ways, huh?[break][break]
Yeah.[break][break]

alright, let's do this.

I've never seen my parents. Not because I couldn't but because I can't. My element has been out of control ever since I was born and it robbed me of my sight. I wasn't able to see and it messed with my parents more than it messed with me. Back then, I was so naive that I thought not being able to see was like having a power. It made me different and a target. Magus be damned, I guess having scripting as an affinity was a cruel joke. Having the power to write things and bring about extraordinary effects but not being able to see what they were.[break][break]
It messed with my mom's head. She was pretty angry back then but it wasn't at me. It was never at me.[break][break]
She was angry with fate. With the unfairness of it all. And my dad, well, he didn't speak much in those days.[break][break]
The only time I'd hear him talk is when I was too far away. When he'd want me to walk back to him on my own two feet.[break][break]
I couldn't use a cane and I couldn't feel around, I just had to walk. Feel the way the earth shifted underneath my feet and embrace the darkness around me. My mom said if the darkness took my sight and my world away, then it was only fair that I took away its power of anonymity and mystery.[break][break]
She only made me feel better but I wish she'd shown a bit of realism back then. I know the kids I met did. Man,
kids are seriously cruel y'know? They don't pull punches like adults do. Say whatever comes to mind, really hurt my pride. Wooh. Oh hey, where was I?[break][break]
Ah, right. [break][break]
Y'see. They sorta picked on me because I always wore a blindfold. The blindfold came when I was about twelve years old. My mom said that it was to help keep my element in check, runes being placed around the edges of it to help my eyes become adjusted to the darkness. Help me see again, she hoped.[break][break]
Dad said it was a lost cause. Mom didn't take that well. Thought he was giving up on me.[break][break]
To be fair, I wouldn't have blamed him if he was. So much weird stuff happened back then that it's a miracle that I'm even alive. Sometimes I just felt like dying. [break][break]
Morbid, right?[break][break]
Keep it as our little secret, eh?[break][break]
And yeah, I know I'm not being really descriptive on who I was or where I lived but c'mon. [break][break]Am I really supposed to trust you?[break][break]
No offense but you're kind of a stranger and I'm kind of.. well, I'm a mess.[break][break]
Alright, we should end this here. Won't get anywhere running around bushes and I'm kinda getting uncomfortable.[break][break]
Like I said, I won't confirm and I won't deny. So just pretend that this story ends off with a happy ending or lie to yourself in any way that helps you sleep at night.[break][break]
I lived it and I'm done with it.[break][break]
For right now, I just wanna be alive.[break][break]

• He is legally partially blinded and his familiar serves as his guide for to his chagrin.
• It is recommended that he doesn't remove his blindfold because intense amounts of sunlight may cause his control to slip.

• He was confirmed to have been suicidal in his youth. Has long since grown tired of it.
• Ever since he was a little boy he wanted to be a renowned author or an entertainer in a circus. Is somewhat sad that it didn't happen.
• Sometimes, he'll travel to the outskirts by himself and meet with a person or persons. Who they are and what their purpose is doesn't matter.
