characters...
Darcy Brisben (she/her), a 15-year-old human. The protagonist. A troubled girl with a silent and withdrawn demeanor that conceals an ill temper, Darcy has few people she loves and even fewer who love her.
Moonflower (he/him), an Incubus. Darcy’s closest and only friend. A deeply loving and gentle individual who recognizes the hurting child in Darcy, Moonflower has made the conscious decision to step in and be there for her when no one else will.
Alice (she/her), a Doppelgänger. The first person Darcy meets in Hell. Though dark and twisted, with a terribly morbid sense of humor and a malicious streak, Alice quickly develops a soft spot for Darcy and subsequently lends her guidance in navigating the realms of Hell.

“If life’s not worth it to start, why don’t we start accepting the people we’re dying to be? / Hell’s become a part of me” [guide us home - currents]

“Tell me the waves won’t rise / And monsters will fade with time” [sun killer - spiritbox]
“They said it’s a cruel world / I learned the rules of a sadist” [rule of nines - spiritbox]
“Well, if I’m there to catch you when you fall / You’ll have a friend down in Hell after all” [if i’m there - bad omens]

"I need an easy friend
I do, with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do, but you have a clue"

Miraculous Ladybug AMV // About a Girl
The Summer Set, About a Girl
She sets me on fire through the afterglow
Like a firework show.
But this ain’t a show.
No, it’s a song for a girl.
She's making my head spin
Making me slur my words.
This is a song about a girl.
This is a song about love
Love ~ la la la love.
I won't forget her name.
I'll always love her the same, my love
Love ~ la la la la la la love.
we're growin' up, girl
But damn, we're still young.
If we jump, we could fall.
If we jump, we could fall in love
Love ~ la la la, oh ~
This is all for love.
This is all for you.
