sazanes: Happy Birthday Hayden!!! What can I say about Hayden?Hayden shows us that no matter our limitations, it is always possible to overcome them and evolve into our best version. Hayden is an example of self-acceptance, loving and being understanding with yourself is the key to happiness. Of course we only saw a little piece of Hayden’s amazing life, but with that little piece, we learned to be strong, trust those who really love us, always challenge ourselves with new things, explore what life has to offer… And so so much more So Happy Birthday Hayden!!!And you? What has Hayden inspired you to? A very belated happy birthday to Hayden!! And so much love to you, @sazanes, for writing this and your beautiful artwork…and the love you’ve always showered on this amazing character I wanted to get something ready but couldn’t in time… hopefully I should be able to try next year!!You know, over the last few months I’d looked over old chats I had with mutuals from when PM began…and until the chapter where Hayden finds out they’re an android, I was very lukewarm about the book itself (I guess that’s what’s so great about this book - a lot of those early chapters don’t quite hit as hard until you go back and reread them!). Like a lot of players, I thought that Hayden would be revealed to be an android and Eros an organization that intended evil…and that was all there was to it. But immediately after that reveal happened…Hayden as a character turned the whole idea of what it meant to be a person, a senitent being, on its head. So I think the first thing Hayden “taught” me was that you never know where you can find nuance. You never know when a story or a character can surprise you, if their writers are invested enough to tell it with love.Hayden also raised so many interesting questions about selfhood, and what it means to figure out who you are. Hayden never stopped asking, never stopped questioning, about who they could be outside of Eros and sometimes even outside of the group itself. They questioned what it meant to have memories that weren’t there, what it meant to have a soul, what change meant to them. I don’t go into PB’s books expecting to learn something from them…but Hayden definitely was an exception to that rule. I definitely learned from observing that character. -- source link
