ALT White text reading "The room has fallen quiet. Sharp gazes burn holes into her back. Medusa digs her nails into her palms. They all think they know what happened. They all see her as some gold-digging slut that tried to sleep her way into the Olympus family who got what she deserved. She shouldnโt let their stares and opinions bother her. Sheโs the Gorgon. She isnโt supposed to care what others think. She swallows the urge to scream at them. To stop staring. That they donโt know anything about her. Or what he did to her. And to leave her the fuck alone." Background is a drawing of Medusa with a graphic of eyes looking at her.
