Venom

She’s all I look at through the slits in my mask. The headphones are too big for her. She’s taller than average but looks small in the mixing suite, or maybe it’s just her nerves. All I wanna do is reach through the glass and tell her she belongs here. She needs to learn to take up the space she deserves. I’ve heard her sing, we all have, but I’ve been there when McCallister tears her to shreds…

I want to punch the callous bastard for the remarks he aims at her, stomping around the room believing he’s better than everyone else. McCallister has a target every year. There’s always one unfortunate soul he picks and decides to make their life miserable. This year, it’s Ash. If it weren’t for her viral video attracting extra attention, she’d never be in the final show line-up. If I didn’t speak up during the selection process, I suspect he’d have found another reason to push her to the sidelines.

I know how it feels to fall victim to McCallister’s lofty expectations and what it’s like to be a scholarship student. I’ve been in her shoes. I’ve watched from afar and saw how she’s been trying to find her place. But how can you fit into a world where you’re constantly made to feel you’ll never be good enough? Our stories have distinct parallels, and I wonder whether she’s stopped to think about it. Probably not. Her obvious dislike for Levi York and the Lionhearts has been clear through her actions. Although, her dislike doesn’t rival my own hatred of the commercial machine we were forced to become.

I noticed Ash from the beginning. In her first class with McCallister, her rendition of Love Story was laughable. Her voice had a strange, strained quality. But, as soon as she got the guitar in her hands, everything changed.

After seeing her viral video, I could truly see why she’s special. The song didn’t suit her voice, but emotion pours out of her when she sings, like a piece of her soul tears away for the listener to take. It’s a special power. One few people possess, and one I’m infuriated to discover Ripper has seen in her too. Plus, she’s the only person in Camp Harmony who doesn’t kiss our asses, which I respect.

It’s not a shock that Ripper has been bold enough to talk to her. He’s a flirt. The guy flirts with anyone with a pulse, whether he’s Ripper or Damon. But I’m surprised at how cagey he’s been about it. Why only mention her coming at the last minute? We never keep secrets from each other… or we haven’t, until her.

Zed is losing his shit but trying to mask it. For him, the Basilisks are more than a band. They are his entire life, which is ironic as, before I found out more about his life, I thought he had the least to lose. He comes from a celebrity family with a disgusting amount of wealth. He would never have to work a day in his life if he didn’t want to.
