Sparrow Story Context

Alright, so just to get it out of the way, since this is my first post ever on my account, I really have no idea what I'm doing. So, bear with me. In any case, I've continued my work on Sparrow's story for the Emily Wren series by Hello546, but as time passes, I find myself inspired and influenced by more and more pieces of literature, quotes, etc. In order to remind myself of these themes and ideas, which I would like to incorporate into the story, I guess I'll post them here. That way you all get some context for what I'm thinking. At the same time, I might change my plans, so this is more of a endeavor to openly brainstorm more than anything else. Alright, that's enough explanation, enjoy.
