#azure and garren and mira and violet

[itsjustdotsandcrosses]

Oh! I just realized I could post the Apothrika original poems here as well for archiving purposes and to get some thoughts down

Restating what I said in the discord, I have never claimed to be good at poetry. Garren's is the shortest but the one I'm most proud of, the one that attacked me visceraly.

Also, Azure's is an iteration of a type of poem I've been writing about her since before the new campaign. It may be lacking full context as far as Violet's backstory but it still works I think.

As for Mira's, I just like the idea that no matter how they circle around each other or how Violet might envy or admire that Mira can actually talk to people like a normal person, they are equal in the shadows as rogues and assassins.

And I wrote Violet's after she started interrogating and asking Garren about his magic. Something about the perceived hostility of needing to know everything about everyone. The fact that she grew up in an evil cult, it must take a whole lifetime to carve that evil out of yourself, how do you know how to live? You can never get that time back, can never get rid of that paranoia.

Anyway. Is it annoying to also tag everyone here? Well I guess who else am I posting this for, who am I fooling lol. I just miss you all, so here's your gift again @crossdressingdeath @gaylord1027 @highonkraken and @bryswyth too.
