Great story, with lots of interesting concepts and characters. But the most interesting is obviously Robin, so let me give my two cents about what I think is going on and what I think will happen.

First, the easy part: Robin is no monster, not even near. Monsters never question, never doubt, never realize their own wicked nature. Robin is human and only human.

When someone is scared and doubts herself a lot, it can be flattering and soothing to think oneself as a unredeemable being, to say our actions are unavoidable at some level - the allure of feeling like a part of nature, of how the world really works.

This kind of thought brings both pain and pleasure - Robin relishs on the idea that only she knows her true self and is the only keeping this monstrous part at bay...

All part of a elaborate lie, not from a psyco but from someone who feels very small when near her friends. How I can meke such claim? Because what makes Robin herself are not the fantasies in her head - a human alone is no monster: she can play monster because she has people that she loves and that loved her back.

The ultimate proof of what I am saying is the fact Robin feels relieved opening up, she wants her loved ones to know she is that scary monster... but is scared out of her wits when faced with the prospect of her friends and herself meeting with a true monster like Wr8.

The true tragedy of the story - in my opinion, of course - is not Robin's fantasies or past, but the fact that she has yet to realize her fantasies do not steams from indifference or wickedness towards the ones in her absolute power, but from her need to have absolute power over those she loves.

But Robin will probably only realize she is no monster after commiting a monstrous act. I hope her friends, her family, finds it in them to remember: in Robin we trust - even when under her monstrous feet.

Thanks for writing and sharing. Loving your story! Also: sorry for any misspelling. Although I am fluent in english, it is not my primary language.

Author's Response:

Thank you for reading and vibing with the story and character of Robin.

I loved reading how the character has come across to you so far, it helps me to remember what's important, as I continue to develop the story.

Thank you so much for such an in-depth take. Warms my heart to see it.

Note: English is my secondary language too, I'm actually Flemish (Belgian Dutch), took me a long time to get this point, and I still rely on autocorrect every other word xP

Oh man. It begins. What a hot chapter. Things really escalated to a point where it's hard to reign them back. Elias just doesn't know how to hold his mouth shut! Thanks for the chapter!

Author's Response: Things are different now.
