I Am No Drama God
After a crimson meteor streaked across the sky, human civilization came to a standstill. From that day on, no one could build a rocket, a nuclear bomb, an airplane, or even a car... The towering pyramid of modern science collapsed in an instant-but the catastrophe did not end there. A gray world descended with the crimson meteor, like a ghostly reflection in a shattered mirror, slowly dragging civilization into the abyss of chaos. In this era, human life is as insignificant as dust; in this era, humanity shines like the stars. As the great edifice of civilization crumbles, someone sees a lone performer standing amidst the ruins. His crimson cloak flows like blood, his laughter and tears interwoven. Behind him, the curtain of a new era slowly rises. He spreads his arms wide and whispers to the countless souls before him- "Let the show... begin."

My Cliche
This is basically a book that means a lot to me. Black Veil Brides practically raised me and though a little cliche, saved my life. Then Halsey was introduced into my life and I learned to understand myself and accept who I was, what I was, and all of the present tense versions. BTS came along and then I knew how to be happy with myself. There are steps to everyones life, and these three groups/artists were my steps. I put them together in a story of how I felt at the time of each group being introduced, though it may not be understood. I know some of it is off a little, but it made me happy to write it. So here is my fanfiction. And my Cliche. Celeste Greene had never been a lucky girl. At eight, her father shot her mother and when the suspicion was gone, he beat his daughter. Once she turned thirteen, a new neighbor decided to show pity when hearing a scream. Now, Celeste spends her seventeenth year of life at an abusive orphanage that could easily be compared to prison. As soon as she gave her statement to put her father in jail, she stopped talking, labeled as mute.Complete
