Past and Aftermath - Vinn and Carcino

Carcino is the past, Vinn is the aftermath.

-----

At some point in time, Carcino became bound to Vinn, leading to the latter living with a malformed past version of themselves.

Initially, it was a very scary process for both parties. Carcino having to adjust to being part of a new body and Vinn having to share said body with them. Gradually, things get easier, but they aren't without ups and downs.

However, this doesn't matter to Vinn; even when things hurt, he doesn't hold a grudge against Carcino. He knows that Carcino isn't malicious against him.

After all, even if Carcino originates from bad roots, it doesn't mean they're rotten themselves.

Past and Aftermath is not a story story, but it is used to represent how living with your past self can demonstrate how much you've grown and changed.
