[reason 169] austen's renaissance

 

Today Austen turns twenty-one years old. 

They've been planning for this day for a year. Renaissance Faire, ordering their first drink, having fun with friends and family. 

They've created and sold things at Pride events, saved money, put together a comfy but amazing outfit for the day, and are as ready as they can be to have a blast celebrating twenty-one years of life.
