// Papercut Palette

Asa Kaiser finds herself in the sterile safety of rehab—where time slows, memories sharpen, and healing begins, if only in splinters.

Told through poetic fragments, sharp self-awareness, and a voice that teeters between devastation and dark humor, Papercut Palette follows Asa’s turbulent journey inward. She must unlearn the reflex to self-destruct before the static swallows her completely.

This is a story about trauma as a second skin, about love that scorches and redeems, about being seen even when you can't look at yourself. Papercut Palette is equal parts confessional and lyrical manifesto—a coming-of-age tale where survival is not the end goal, but the beginning of intimacy, truth, and maybe, peace.
