#and maybe shuffle pens family a bit because; honestly Prudence makes more sense as Ridley than I think Marina would

I know I've done like, a general caster chronicles polin au but I feel like they would absolutely fuck as Lena and Ethan.

Like Penelope being so scared of herself? Having these powers that other people can seemingly sense, that immediately get her othered everywhere she goes? That she has little to no control over, wanting to be normal but being utterly incapable of it? Knowing during her birthday shes going dark or light and she doesn't get a say, feeling like shes already dark?

Colin who just wants to leave, who can't stand to be here but has to finish school. With a map full of places he wants to go and a shoe box full of college brochures because anyway away from here where it feels like hes drowning sounds amazing.

The shadow songs? The locket visions? The ancestors that were in love but didn't get a happy ending?? Them being able to kelt[which as a mortal he shouldn't be able to]? Them not really being able to touch???

Ughjhjjoghz if my writers block wasn't kicking my ass-
