Sixteen was absolutely nowhere close to sixteen. “I waa taken when I was twelve,” Ky said, dipping her head. “It’s felt like an eternity.”

(I have absolutely no idea what it’s from so enjoy my crackhead interpretation: it looks like some of the Queen of Hearts soldiers from Alice in Wonderland meets Mickey Mouse)(and ...

“I’m sixteen,” she said simply. It was irritating that people consistently underestimated her age, though she didn’t let even a hint of that show. It made more sense to her ...
