Old Stories Best Forgotten

      Teagan is neither male nor female, they are non-binary and their pronouns are they/them. Please see this link for help with transgender style and supporting information on they/them as a singular pronoun for non-binary individuals, if you're not familiar. It's okay to occasionally make OOC mistakes and use gendered pronouns; we're all people! I will politely remind people if mistakes are made. Please remember that intentionally misgendering a trans person is generally regarded as an act of emotional violence, and Teagan will respond in an IC fashion to intentional in-character misgendering.

      A drifter who lives in their car, starts bar fights for fun, and occasionally gets in fights in the Hedge for even more fun. Teagan has fought and/or fucked and/or cursed their way across most of the continental U.S. What a charmer. If they weren't really good at making things bleed, they might be more or less charming, depending on your perspective.

      OOC Note: Teagan's kind of an asshole, but that's not meant to make things OOCly un-fun. If you're not having fun OOC, please tell me.

Roleplaying Hooks

"To cut properly, you must continually self-annihilate when cutting. Your hand must become a hand that is cutting, your body a body that is cutting, your mind a mind that is cutting. You must instantaneously destroy your fake pre-present self. It is a useless hanger on." - Meti's Sword Manual

• Squires of the Broken Bough: Where there's trouble, there's a Darkling with a machete.
• Fame: Teagan's reputedly got a Death Wish.
• Summer: Hunter of the Longest Day, Mantle 5. Just a little bit Summer.
• Goodwill: Teagan has the following Goodwill:

• Autumn •
• Dawn ••
• Dusk •
• Spring •
• Winter •

The attitude of most Courts to Teagan in regards to this Goodwill can best be summed up by this link.

• Fights For No Reason: Um. Yeah?
• Finding Shit Out: Also this.
• Drifter: And thief. At least, they used to be. The Summer Spy has started putting down roots.
• Taking Out The Garbage: See also: Hunter of the Longest Day.

Soundtrack

Squire of the Broken Bough

Who, who are you really?

And where, where are you going?

I've got nothing left to prove

Cause I've got nothing left to lose

• Tom Waits - How's It Going To End?

Drag your wagon and your plow

Over the bones of the dead

Out among the roses and the weeds

You can never go back

And the answer is no

And wishing for it only

Makes it bleed

• VNV Nation - Forsaken

The day you died I lost my way

The day you died I lost my mind

What am I supposed to do?

Is there something more?

The engines power down

Like a soldier to his end I go

Because I'm convinced

That there is nothing more

Harbinger Life

I want to know how it will end

I want to be sure of what it will cost

Queer & Trans

• Tribe 8 - Wrong Bathroom

Is that a him or a her

Oh excuse me ma'am -uh, sir?

Cuz you're confused

Cuz I don't fit in your box you loser

Choking on the dirt and sand

Your former glories and all the stories

Dragged and washed with eager hands

But, oh your city lies in dust, my friend

• 30 Seconds to Mars - Hurricane

Do you really want, do you really want me

Do you really want me dead or alive to torture for my sins

Do you really want

Do you really want me

Do you really want me dead or alive to live a lie

Tell me would you kill to save a life

Fuck Having Feelings

• The Wallflowers - From The Bottom Of My Heart

Pale-faced and hollowed eyes

Buried under ruptured skies

Not every smile means I'm laughing inside

Two-faced and compromised

I've enraptured you with lies

Where everything means nothing and tonight everything is mine

From the bottom of my heart

Comes a cold dark feeling

I have buried so much

In the layers I'm peeling

• Dorothy - Gun In My Hand

Was it for redemption?

Was it for revenge?

Was it for the bottle?

Was it for the ledge?

Was it for the thrill of pushing my hope to the edge?

Before The Bloody Hands

• Halsey - Control

I paced around for hours on empty

I jumped at the slightest of sounds

And I couldn't stand the person inside me

I turned all the mirrors around

I'm bigger than my body

I'm colder than this home

I'm meaner than my demons

I'm bigger than these bones

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"

I can't help this awful energy

God damn right, you should be scared of me

Who is in control?

This Section Belongs To Someone

Are you still,

Breathing?

Every night

But I wouldn't change my mind

I'm a sucker for you

• Father John Misty - I Love You, Honeybear

While the global market crashes

As death fills the streets we're garden-variety oblivious

"It’s just how we expected"

Everything is doomed

And nothing will be spared

But I love you, honeybear

• Nothing But Thieves - Particles

And I'm a shadow of a ghost

It's feeling as if somebody has taken host

Babe, I don't wanna make a scene

But I get self-destructive

• Hozier - It Will Come Back

I know who I am when I'm alone

Something else when I see you

You don't understand, you should never know

How easy you are to need

Don't let me in with with no intention to keep me

Jesus Christ! Don't be kind to me

Honey don't feed me - I will come back
