A bathroom in the school building, Friday after Monsters and Humans class

Jul 12, 2013 22:27

So. Class hadn't exactly gone well. Raven should have been able to just lie and call herself human and keep her cover, but her classmates were talking mutants and ghosts, and the vampire teacher was being so proud of calling himself a "monster" and she wanted so badly to just go with it and be herself for once -- but years of hiding and terror weren't easy to get over.

And then she'd had to start singing.

So she was hiding, her back against the door to try to make sure no one walked in on her as she tried to get her focus back and keep hold of her blonde disguise, even as her natural blue skin and red hair kept trying to break through.

And she was still singing.

"If happy times are too few and far between
It's a pity dear, we can't erase the things we've seen
So disappear, vanish if you wish
Just go before you're swallowed up by bitterness

And the truth is you can't hide from the truth
And the truth hurts because the truth is all there is
I realized some time ago that I would have to let you go

May not be true to see that you would return one day
But in your present state you may as well not be here at all
You wear a thin disguise, it's from yourself you hide
Just take a look at us, we are heading for a fall."
