2 for both Pasha and Elvidere? ✨

Pasha: Child of the Streets

Pasha grew up in harsh conditions, having to do whatever it takes to survive, she had to be cold and ruthless, never express pain to her loss or any emotions that could make her seem weak or vulnerable since she was already set back in life as a Magani. While Pasha knows the harsh reality of the world and that things rarely ever work out and her losses will only grow and become worse with time, she refuses to give in and see the world as all doom and gloom.

Pashas world view tends to lean on being optimistic to an extent. Despite all odds, she's alive. There's merit to that, and to her that proves that the world is good, that fate can be kind.

Being completely unable to see the light for so long made Pasha have to much more love and appreciation for it as soon as she could see it. She only wants to see the light, and is willing to live in delusion if it means she won't have to go back to seeing the world as dark.

Belvidere: Child of the City

Bel grew up surrounded by wealth, all the things he could ever want at his fingertips, but he always wanted more - He wanted to be 'normal' instead of being shoved into the background, a forgotten member of a beautiful and big family. He was always bitter, believed the world to be unfair to make him so unlovable to the people around him that gave love to all others.

He continues to see the world as unfair and cruel, believing that no matter what he will never have a place anywhere, each time he's thought he had something to protect and care for, he's never had enough to save those things he cares for. He believes that he will always fall short no matter how hard he tries. He will never be anything more than an afterthought.

To Bel, the world is cruel and unforgiving. Take one wrong step and it will leave you behind, so he can't take any more wrong steps. He has to be perfect.
