12th Party - Milla Vodello - Video
Check in, my darlings. Everyone I know; I don't care if we haven't spoken in a month, I want to talk to you. Especially if you're the age of sixteen or below.
Raz, Lili, Mindy, Sollux, Eridan, Terezi, Alma... that includes you all.
[She stands up straight, her eyes surprisingly steely. Strength--genuine, honest to God strength she hasn't had since Haven--radiates off her. She's not wearing the conservative dress she has been recently, and the scars on her legs and neck from past experiments and her time in Haven are visible. She doesn't seem self-conscious of them in the least; in fact, they seem to add to the image of defiance.
Fuck you, facility. You won't make her cower, break, or be ashamed. She won't hide.]
Be strong, everyone. It seems scary now, but this too will pass. They only want to frighten you into breaking.
Don't let them do that to you.
[Maybe she'll go back to piecing herself together after this, maybe she won't, but this has snapped something inside her.
She won't give the facility the satisfaction of seeing her react. She won't hide her body because of them. She won't hole up because of them. And she won't break because of them.
She's needed. As long as she's needed, she'll never crumble.]
