TW: abandonment feelings
Daphne was excited to finally learn how to play the piano. Her father was an excellent pianist, along with her aunt Violet along with Varina and Vera. Music was literally in her blood, it was how her mother fell in love with her father and how her father paid the bills. Henry Lopez was a world class musician before he transitioned to producing music. Some of Daphne’s earliest memories were seeing concerts, watching Varina and Vera flourish in piano, and watching Henry and Violet play music together, before Henry moved out and never spoke to Violet again. It was expected for Daphne to be another musician, especially by her father. Daphne could feel him pulling away from her, so she couldn’t fail or mess this up. Daphne took a deep breath, steeled her nerves, and walked through the door.
A couple of months later, Daphne knew she was completely out of her league. She practiced for hours after class every day, but she was still the worst in her class by far. Her fingers couldn’t move quick enough and she always seemed to forget where the notes were, no matter how many times everyone seemed to tell her. She could see her teacher sigh, out of the corner of her eye, as she walked into the classroom. She waved to Vallen, a star student and brother of Vera and Varina, and sat down next to her teacher. When she started playing, she could feel the waves of judgment from her teacher and the pain of all the other students, suffering through her ‘music’. Daphne was red from embarrassment and could feel everyone else’s eyes on her, wondering what she was doing on the piano.
After Daphne’s lesson was finished, she waited on the curb for her father to pick her up. He didn’t even look at her as she climbed into the front seat and just started driving, pointedly ignoring her. Henry didn’t think Daphne was trying hard enough in piano and viewed it as sheer laziness. “I just wish you would be more like Allison, she was playing in concerts at your age. I’m disappointed in you, Daphne” Henry told her as he drove down the highway. Daphne didn’t respond, she couldn’t convince him that she was trying either way. Daphne could see that Allison was coming up more and more recently. They had never met, but her dad seemed to really be in love. Daphne wanted to be happy for him and she was, but the feeling of abandonment was getting stronger every time Allison came up and the chasm between them only widened. Daphne stared out the window until her father pulled up to the Varmitech Industries building, where Daphne would be spending the night while her mother worked. Henry was supposed to spend the night, just the two of them, but he decided that he instead wanted to go with Allison, causing Donita to frantically text Zach, asking if he would be able to watch Daphne. Daphne was excited to spend time with the Varmitechs, she really was, but she couldn’t help but feel the familiar twinge of disappointment that her father had let her down again, something that seemed to be getting more and more common. Daphne sighed and started walking towards the building, feeling like a burden.
Violet was disappointed in Henry. She could tell that Daphne was upset that he didn’t spend the night, and frankly so was Violet. She was always happy to watch Daphne, viewing her almost as another daughter, but was annoyed by the extremely short notice and complete lack of acknowledgement from Henry. Once upon a time, they were playing music and singing together, but then Henry and Donita got divorced. Violet was upset about the way that Henry chose to handle the news and felt bad for her friend, but was more surprised by Henry never reaching out to them. She sent a few texts to him in the beginning, asking how he was and that she was always there if he wanted to talk, but he never responded. Violet felt disappointed in Henry, yet again, he had thrown away years of friendship and kinship, never speaking to Violet again after the divorce. He even seemed to actively avoid her, never looking her in the eye, something Violet definitely noticed and did not approve of. Henry seemed to be disappointing in every category recently, he was a bad husband, friend, and seemingly father. Violet sighed and opened the door as Daphne walked through the elevator doors, wanting to be the parental figure Daphne deserved.

my mutuals’ “headcanons” are MY canon. understand? i only know what they tell me, i only hear what they say. my mutuals’ posts are like the holy texts and i am but a humble scholar in search of knowledge
I love freckles!! (It’s probably because I have a ton lol) but I think they make people look so good 🫶🫶
María: Don't worry too much, I feel that your freckles make you unique, more than you already are
Chris: Thank you and...I'm sorry for acting like an idiot earlier *kisses him on the forehead* and I like your marks, they look like butterfly wings
María: aww thank you honey
I have a headcanon in which Chris never lost the freckles he had as a child and as a child older than him he took advantage of this to make fun of them, he rejected them for a long time and covered them with foundation, the same with María, until She discovered that little secret and although at first Chris felt somewhat attacked, in the end Maria revealed her other secret and Chris apologized, forming this link scene ^^
I’m chilling 😌😌
the og post was way too long so I'm making a new one
thanks for the tag @lombolica !! :D
You're stuck in a room with the last character in your gallery how safe are you

😍😍
I saw this image on pinterest and thought it would look good with my assistant Chris au 👀
sooo so cute! Violet looks so pretty!! @cat-angel-936
Hi Jok, Do you remember when I told you that I wanted to do Violet's makeup? well ta chan! Here I have it ^^ I also put María because I imagined a situation like that after they met and Violet found out that María knows how to do makeup. Do you like it? ^^
Yes, I remember and oh my goodness, you did a fantastic job with this, this scene is adorable!!! I love it 😍! Thank you so much! I can’t help but think they are having a spa day, or a girls night, or some fun event like that where they are emphasizing self care, pampering, and makeup!
I love the idea of Zach and Violet trying to help Chris and María get together despite Martin’s reservations, and this results in Violet and María bonding! I love to think that they will spend time together, enjoying each other’s company and being there for one another!
Maybe Zach and Violet also invite Chris and María over for double dates?!?! That would be so cute! I can imagine such an event dissolving into this….Violet and María have been in the bathroom a while, Zach and Chris come to check on them, and they walk in to this:
Zach: “What are you doing???”
Violet: “María did my makeup, do you like it?” *strikes a pose*
Zach *scoffs*: “It doesn’t look as good as when she did mine! I looked so much better in the makeup she did for me!”
Chris: “Hey, you both looked great, it’s not a competition!”
María: “It is so nice to know my skills are appreciated 🥰!”
