Now anybody who's read the lore will get this. For a hint, this is what the actual word she said was:

way to make it obvious, Padra.

added relation @The Courier
he might be going on the hitlist. I have yet to determine what sort of violence this new side of her expresses,
though I feel it is simply reactionary frustration, and thus short-lived.
also, Serella has damaged her own ears. I am unsure what I need to track to see if the damage is permanent.

Padragin has more reason to be offended. Notice she did /not/ try to kill the man in a fit of anger.

Lord of Altera
she knows Ferrous was talking about Padra.
it does not matter. he disgraces her by even implying what she did not once, not twice, but three times, when she scarcely wanted to do it, even, was degeneracy.
basically, you tried to insult the straight girl, but accidentally offended the lesbian.
... that's not literal. Serri is not a lesbian.

Serella is going away for a while.
she's had a few deep revelations about the world, in the midst of damaging her hearing horribly (temporary ailment, with silence (which she will have much of), her hearing will restore itself to a weaker level of sensitivity. she'll never be able to hear as well as a silver elf should, but she'll hear as well as an elf should)
and she's not sure, but she thinks she's found love.
soon (next Tuesday), Serella Caedit will be 18 years old. In human years, she will stop being a child.
yes.... Serella Caedit is finally growing up. on Tuesday, expect her entire profile to change,
especially The Path.
I will note that a lot of things will change dramatically about her, including hair color, eye color, physical appearance, clothing, voice, body, and face. which'll likely be jarring to everyone. mainly because I made a bit of a mistake in ensuring her aging was gradual. while I've remembered to alter some things with age, there are more than a few things which I had entirely forgotten to keep updating. my mistake.
understand that the sudden changes in her body are not so sudden IC. everyone who's known her has seen her making gradual changes, so the response would be like if you saw someone when they were still growing, and they came back a year later having grown an inch and cut their hair. as in, natural changes over time.
my mistake in not making this gradual over roleplay time like it should have been.

Serella has turned 18 years old. the new profile is not yet finished, and Serri will come back to civilization (and rp) when I'm good and ready gosh darnit!
I'd like to preface my eventual changes with something.
Serri's hair and eyes have changed color.
in a perfect world, I would have thought of this back when she was like, 13, and done the change then, but I didn't and now I'm stuck handwaving it as weird elven biology or something.
IF I'd decided to change her hair when she was 13, this is how I would have explained it:
a great many blonde-haired blue-eyed kids (sometimes called "towheads") actually get darker hair right before they reach puberty, fading from bright blonde to a more strawberry color, or even brown. blue eye colors often change as an individual ages (or based on the light, or a number of factors), though usually it ends up being around the light color spectrum.
biology is weird.
anyways, because I decided to do this at the transition to 18, I'm forced to explain it by a number of desperately transparent examples of Gaby reaching for straws.
first is the fact that nobody's really set down a proper age for elven maturity, but silver elven society dictates one to not be an adult until their 30th birthday. I don't know whether thats because of physical maturity, or uptight silver elves, but in any case, the 18-year-old Serri is far from being an adult in elven terms, and there are implications here and there of elven puberty being delayed in some manner.
I could explain it like that, if I hadn't already given Serri puberty hormones.
though come to think of it, they hadn't really kicked in until she was 16, so I have sooooomeeee leeway...
I can explain this weird "puberty here now, puberty there later" logic by talking about how in real life, puberty is really weird and unequal in humans, and while I might even take it one step further and say that Serri's human father is messing this whole thing up even further, that's straying dangerously close to "half-elf" territory, which is explicitly lorebanned, so forget that.
in any case, this is a huge mess of alternate interpretation lore and I'm cherry-picking evidence that works for me, and trying maximum hard to make this hair-eye change work because:

in any case, this is a huge mess of alternate interpretation lore and I'm cherry-picking evidence that works for me, and trying maximum hard to make this hair-eye change work because:
- it's starting to bother me that she inherited both recessive traits from her parents, while both parents also possessed the respective dominant traits. blonde-haired brown-eyed mother, and black-haired blue-eyed father making a blonde-haired blue-eyed daughter? Serri is some kind of miracle baby.
- it's also starting to bother me that Serri looks to silver elf society like someone with very strong commoner blood. I might be lowkey trying to rectify my boneheaded lore mistake by elaborate retcon and biology handwaving. o____o
- blatant symbolism. to those about to complain, "you're just turning her into a forest elf!" well, DUH! that's exactly what's happening IC, why do you think Serri tried to propose to a forest elf with the whole "kindred" ceremony, then runs off to Tauredal with said forest elf? she's obviously trying to join that culture and those traditions, and she's really obviously rebelling against both Lavoyard and Silver Elf customs. me changing hair and eye color is just... making that obvious. trust me, people, I've done more obvious literary devices in the past. (perfect example: Salheira. one quick glance at her profile reveals a short list of really obvious themes running throughout.)
- honestly, none of this actually matters, because while I'm writing an essay about why I'm allowed to change a character's natural hair color as according to real life examples of such occurring, there's a silver elf with pink hair and the vast majority of elves (that are still good characters with rich backstories!) blatantly disregarding lore. also, there's a character with dyed green hair, two characters that had dyed purple hair, and a bunch of other characters with yellow or red or really bright green or blue eyes, and I mean, this isn't the worst thing somebody has done regarding hair-eye color! mine's not even bad, just a wee mistake in timing!
