Grim and twisted, our fairytale is one of nightmares and carnage.
PRETENDER
To be kind and genuinely good is a longing that gnaws at my soul.
It’s a futile struggle.
No matter how much I pretend, it doesn’t change the truth.
Decay runs through my veins.
I’m ensnared by sorrow and incessantly glorify all that is detrimental to me.
Like him.
And him too.
MONSTER
Love is the ultimate deception, but this isn't that.
Or perhaps it is. I wouldn't have the faintest clue.
Obsession. Fixation. Mania.
These are the certainties that pulse within me.
Just as I'm certain she’ll despise us when she learns the truth, but her loathing is the sweetest indulgence.
It justifies every tear I’ll savor when she weeps.
VILLAIN
There’s a perverse allure in dismantling a soul, piece by piece, only to graft all the jagged shards onto your own being, letting their agony and chaos seep into your veins.
It's romantic too, for me at least.
I know that no matter what happens I'll carry them with me forever, even in death.
That's what I want from her.
It's all I need.
She’ll hate us for what we’re about to do.
But I'll make sure she needs us too.
