    Summary

    Billy learns early that if he can’t be invisible, he has to be dangerous. So he turns himself into something untouchable—sharp, controlled, built from whatever keeps him alive. Because if he lets go of that, he doesn’t know what’s left of him.

    “But if I gave up on being pretty, I wouldn’t know how to be alive.”

    At night, he sheds his name like a second skin. Not William. Not Billy. Not a Hargrove. Something else. Something that doesn’t feel. Something that can’t be broken.

    “I should move to a brand new city and teach myself how to die.”

    So he becomes Vecna—and calls it survival.

     

    Based on the song "Brand New City" by Mitski
