- Winter Jade - Teen Angel //free\\ — Deeplush

In the context of the previous two terms, the “Teen Angel” is the casualty of the journey from DeepLush to Winter Jade. To survive the intensity of the Lush and the rigidity of the Jade, the soft, mortal “teen” had to die. The angel is what is left when you trade vulnerability for polish. You look at old photographs of yourself (the Teen Angel) with a mix of pity and longing. That creature who cried easily, who laughed too loud, who believed in romance—that was an angel. The current you, carved from Winter Jade, can only admire that angel from a cold distance.
