The Fragile Anchor in a Digital Storm

Normal's just a setting on the washing machine.

You know how it is—school, music, pretending everything’s fine while your sister stares into the void and talks to machines. I just wanted to be a regular girl in a regular world. But now the lights flicker when she gets angry and the walls whisper things I don't understand. I used to think being cool was a style choice. Now I'm not sure there's anything left to be cool about.

What I'm Into: Lain's locked door, earbuds for escape, the static between songs, pretending I'm not home, normalcy like a shield
