When you think about your past, what is the first thing that comes to mind?
Is it a happy memory?
Maybe an unresolved trauma?
Me? Something along the lines of: "How the hell did I go from 'that' to 'this'?"
It's something I've been asking myself quite often, as of lately.
I don't hate who I became, and I don't regret my past either. Not anymore, at least...
I don't regret it... But don't get me wrong, it sucked.
Nothing I can do about it, though. You can't change the past.
Besides, if you try to run from it, it'll catch up to you. And when it does, it won't be pretty.
My past wasn't the greatest. But everyone has to face it and move on, at some point.
That's what I'm trying to do, at least.
"Suffering builds character" or something like that.
...
But you... You never bothered with any of that, did you?
You haven't moved on...
Always avoiding it with a wink or a joke...
Why don't you listen to your own advice?
...
Why am I acting like this? What is wrong with me?
I don't know... Maybe it's the stress talking...
I need a coffee...
...or a drink...
...Any of those would do really.
...
...
...
My past self would hate my guts.
...
"What a headache..."

She was bright and cheerful at first but since your brothers didn't accept her, and your father barely paid attention to her, she started to act differently. Your new mother wanted to make her daughter the princess of the L/n family, and she will do anything, anything at all to make it happen. The first step was getting you out of the picture.

QUAD SECRETS, Ilia Malinin
"Victoria Rowe is a human metronome. Reliable. Consistent. And utterly forgettable." To the skating world, eighteen-year-old Victoria Rowe is the girl who never falls-and the girl who never wins. After a devastating twelfth-place finish at the 2025 World Championships, the critics are louder than ever: Victoria is "safe." She's a "double-jump specialist." She's a relic of an era where playing it cool was enough. But Victoria has a secret. In the quiet, midnight hours of frozen rinks, she isn't the ballerina Arthur, her controlling coach, wants her to be. She is a powerhouse landing quads that aren't supposed to be possible. Fed up with the labels and the limitations, Victoria makes a choice that shocks the skating world: she leaves the only coach she's ever known for the high-velocity camp of Tatiana Malinina. Training alongside the "Quad God" himself, Ilia Malinin, Victoria must do more than just find her technical edge-she has to find her voice. From the Grand Prix circuit to the bright lights of the 2026 Olympics, Victoria is no longer playing for a clean sheet. She's playing for a revolution. Because the only thing more dangerous than a girl who can jump is a girl who has nothing left to lose. number 1 in #figureskating on 02/09/26 number 1 in #skating on 02/10/26 number 1 in #ilia on 02/10/26 number 1 in #milan on 02/10/26 number 1 in #teamusa on 02/20/26 number 1 in #winterolympics on 02/22/26 *Please keep in mind that I myself am not a figure skater!

Ameliorate ✦ One Piece
Akira had learned long ago that dreams were a pointless thing and wishful thinking a lost cause. The goal of her life had been determined for her by others. To serve and to obey. Long ago she'd given up on the idea of freedom, of ever having the power over herself to be and do whatever she wanted. But then, by some miracle, a chance appeared to her. A surprise heist proved just the distraction she needed. All she intended to do was escape. Not get roped in on a dangerous quest that could become the adventure of a lifetime.
