Yes, Raven, you HAD better hide because as insane as it seems now, you lived in a world where it barely made the news for a black man to be mutilated and set on fire for the crime of looking at a white woman. That’s a black man, a human being under the law with the right to vote and everything, whose race happens to be in the minority. Admittedly, you’re in England, not the Southern U.S., but all the same, what the heck do you think would happen to a scaly blue girl who can shapeshift? I figure it’s a toss-up between ‘burned at the stake as a demon’ or ‘squirreled away in a government lab, never again to see daylight through non-sedated eyes.’

Charles made a lot of mistakes, sweetheart, many of them with you. But hiding your true appearance from the public eye was not freaking one of them.

Thank you for saying this.

Thank you. Thank you.
