marked ones

each of them has one. no two in the same place.

maribel greene

✧ feather under her right collarbone, faintly glowing when she sleeps

nixie werther

✧ pentagram stitched over her left wrist, like someone tried to close a portal

ashbourne kincaid

✧ behind his left ear, shaped like a broken music note

ivy doe

✧ glowing leaf on the inside of her cheek — visible only when she speaks

opal wren

✧ lightning in her palm, faintly burned in like circuitry

rue

✧ triangle on the tip of his tongue — he tastes static when he lies

eliot

✧ star over his heart, but it flickers in and out of reality
