Dont Worry A Post About The Vampirism And Dragon Parts Is Planned - Tumblr Posts

I finished Carry On today and it left me with some thoughts about putting ourselves in boxes.

Simon was never supposed to be that powerful. His magic was, frankly, an abomination that the world couldn’t support. It was not his fault however, his father was a psychopath.

He was the Chosen One. A term that has been rehashed over and over again. He was supposed to save the Magickal world, but he wasn’t made for it. He didn’t have the pieces and parts needed. The Mage says he was cracked and flawed. But he was only cracked and flawed because he was going against his true nature, and being shoved into a box that he couldn’t fit in.

This is where I apply this. If Simon hadn’t been shoved into this box by the Magickal world, maybe things would have turned out better. Ebb wouldn’t have died in his steed, he would have probably broken up with Agatha sooner, and would maybe be able to plan a future. But he was shoved into a box that prevented him from seeing that.

We can’t try to fit into things that simply weren’t made for us. It doesn’t work, even in our normal lives without magic. We have to be our authentic selves, the person that we try our best to hide from this world, so we and the people around us can be exactly as our nature says.
