Appearances Don't Matter

It all goes so well when people don't see you, so it's easier to hide away. And why wouldn't you want to keep away from the eyes of others? You're hideous to the world at large, despite your own opinions of yourself, no matter if you're human or otherwise. You don't appear to be anything most would want to be around, much less befriend. If you're human, your appearance could be chalked up to mutation, a freak chance at birth, or an an accident later in life; if you're not human, you just happen to exist in a place where those who look like you would never be accepted by the mainstream. Maybe it's not even your whole appearance, though. Your point of contention could be something like an injury or prosthetic that makes you feel not whole, though it may be insignificant in the view of the kind and open-minded. There's more comfort in covering that up and not letting anyone get close.

In any case, you don't expect someone to love you, be attracted to you, or even want to be with you, especially a beautiful someone. Yet somehow, somebody does...or, at least, it seems that way. Will this new development last? Can you put your demons at bay long enough for it to do so?

PROMPTS

Meeting | You've never seen anyone who doesn't balk at your appearance, but they don't.
Growing Close | It starts as a friendship or an alliance, the grows to- more?
Jealousy | There's no way they could see you as anything special. Surely, they have someone more handsome or beautiful in their sights.
Realizing Feeling | At first, you didn't realize how your heart was feeling just by them being around, but now it's becoming clear: you're falling for them.
Can't Tell Them | You'll ruin your bond with them should you tell them how you really feel. They'll be disgusted, so you'll keep mum.
Touch | They touch you without a hint of distaste, which could be a big plus compared to what you usually deal with.
No Difference | Actually, they can't tell that you're different, due to lack of vision or something similar. All they can discern is your personality.
The Way It Used to Be | You didn't use to look this way, and it's hard to come to terms with your new look and how it affects
Confession | You can't keep in your emotions anymore, or they accidentally get revealed.
Good | They share your feelings! You never could have imagined this, but you couldn't ask for more.
Bad | ...oh, you thought they...oh, they're so sorry.
Scared | "Friendship" nor a "relationship" was never on their mind. In fact, they're scared of you.
Cruel | All of their supposed kindness was actually just them using you for their benefit. To think, you really believed they cared about you!
Defense | They step on the line for you, standing up to those who'd consider you a monster or somehow lesser.
Uncovered | You're exposed and they can see everything you've tried to hide. You want to crawl into a hole and die. They want to keep you from feeling that way.
Shouldn't Be | People oppose your relationship, and there may be some points to the arguments.
Intimacy | Even being close, which most take for granted, could be a new and possibly uncomfortable event for you.
Smut | The obligatory smut option, with all the baggage, angst, and difficulties that may come with it.
Misunderstanding | You heard them insinuate that you're nothing but the ugly outside, or, at least, that's what you think came out.
Bad End | The messy breakup option...or worse.
Good End | The happy ending option...or better.

[ooc note: I play Noel's version of Yeul. She dies on her 16th birthday and I'll play her just before then. Please let me know if you'd like a Yeul trapped in the Chaos with all the other Yeul's or Caius's Yeul. There are small differences but the option is open. :) Thank you.]
