something from nothing - o, intro

[align=center][div style="width: 51%; text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt; letter-spacing: 0px; font-family: verdana;"]In all honesty, Cosette was used to the insensitive questions about her appearance. The pokes and prods, the backhanded compliments, and the comments about her personality to avoid talking about how she looked. Part of her extreme vanity and narcissism came as a defense mechanism- though in all honesty she was just purely narcissist most of the time.

Though she did start when an unfamiliar voice filtered into her translucent ears, not expecting a Snowbounder, but rather someone like Stryker, or one of his equally ugly minions. Instead, it was just a borzoi puppy- a graceful breed Cosette could admire- despite being blind and all. "Hello," the sphynx chirruped in Yuuri's direction "I'm Cosette Cipher... I don't believe we've ever met...?" She stopped herself before asking if the girl wanted to find some books in braille, wondering if the question was too insensitive.

Before she could dwell on it too long though, Gwen had appeared. A pleasant and slightly more familiar face, but only an acquaintance instead of friend and family. Such was subject to change easily though. It was clear that the other Snowbounder was likely in the library for refuge from The Pitt's shitty chainlink bullshit, but she was welcomed nonetheless. "I do like classics," she remarked lightly, pawing slightly at the book she'd already pulled off the shelf earlier "I grabbed Sense and Sensibility since it's my favourite, but I'm definitely open to suggestions!"
