COVER IS BY KAY_OFFICIAL ON INSTAGRAM THIS IS NOT MY ART This is an AU where Velvet and Veneer have actual talent. They start off as just kids that like singing. Slowly, they become the most famous singers in all of Mount Rageous. They're also not teenagers in the later chapters. I'll say when. This one is kind of graphic. There's a lot more angst in this. Also, Veneer and Velvet's parents aren't dead like in my other fanfic. Veneer is the more likable twin of the two. He was bullied by a small group of kids though. They were just always jealous that the teachers liked him. He was always the "teachers pet." Veneer never disrespected the teachers. He just never liked being mean for no reason. Was pretty shy as a kid. Now that he's older, he's got some sass, due to his sister. He loves cooking and gardening with his mother. His father doesn't love him that much because he's more "girly" than most guys. Velvet, the less likable twin. She has quite a few friends. Of course, she brings Veneer along with her. She doesn't want her brother to be alone. She would never let anyone hurt her brother. She was a horrible singer until she started getting classes. She's a spoiled brat but loving to her brother. She absolutely hates her mother. She was always the pretty twin. She was a model ever since she was young. Kid Ritz was more of a loner. He never had any true friends. He had one that did awful things to him when he was younger and vulnerable. He loved playing the Cello. He also loves talking to others, not for very long though usually. He's never really had anyone to help him when he struggled in school. No one to cry on or rely on. He's also always loved reading. He just goes to a whole other world whenever he reads. That's the only he can really escape from all the negativity around him. Also, this will have mentions of SH, abuse, bullying, sexual things, groping, underage drinking, sexual abuse, neglect, substance abuse, and heavy drinking.
