Wip art of my little Hamper partly inspired by one of her course-altering statements in her story.
"For once, I don't want everyone to tell me that it's okay. I don't want someone to tell me that everything will be fine, everything happens for a reason, and it will work out in the end. Because here's the thing - it won't. We're all ridiculous mortals crawling around on this insipid planet for no reason other than coincidence or some perfect reason, but that will one day end. We don't really have a purpose, do we? And if we do, is it all for nothing? That's what I want someone to tell me. I don't want perfect lies whispered between teeth - I want the truth. Because God knows all we do is ignore mortality, ignore life itself in favor of acknowledging the perfectly constructed material. I just need one person to acknowledge the inevitability of life and death itself so I know I'm not the only one realizing these things."
"Then let me be that someone."
