Null Paradox | Miss Understood

Miss Understood is our new song about Annabelle’s continuing journey into trying to understand her strange relationship with The Bully.

It all started at one of Seth’s all-night poker card games.

As Seth’s card dealer, she made it a point to know everything about everyone. Part of it was for Seth–he’d made it clear when he first interviewed her that he wanted to know exactly who everyone was at his Game Nights, what they did during the day, and most importantly, who they socialized with.

The other part was that she wanted the same information that Seth did for her own reasons.

Then, one night, The Bully started showing up well after everyone else had left.

Lyrics

Maybe you should’ve hit him
Maybe you should’ve hit him
Maybe you should’ve hit him
Maybe you should’ve hit him

(verse)
Some say I’m quirky
Some say insane
Some say they understand me
It’s my campaign

Gonna make my move at midnight
Have to use a light touch
The Bully is dangerous
Way too much

(chorus)
My vision has you killing me
Time to test if you still believe
When I ask for protection you stood
Maybe you’re no good
Or misunderstood

(verse)
Gonna use my leverage
Gonna feed him pain
Walking into danger
He’s so insane

(chorus)
My vision, has you killing me
Time to test, if you still believe
When I ask for protection you stood
Maybe you’re no good
Or misunderstood

Would’ve, could’ve
Maybe you should
Baby you’re good
So misunderstood

Would’ve, could’ve
Maybe you should
Baby you’re good
So misunderstood

Would’ve, could’ve
Maybe you should
Baby you’re good
So misunderstood

(verse)
Yeah, I found his button
Yeah, he’s felt the pain
It’s monumental
Addiction is his way

I know why he loves me
It’s so damn good
He’s lost his control
Cause I’m Miss Understood
Miss Understood

Annabelle |  Zero

Like most Null Paradox characters, Annabelle lives in the same multiverse.

Physicists describe the multiverse as an object that contains all possible universes. At its core, the Null Paradox multiverse is the same, but how we navigate the infinite permutations of each universe within the multiverse is different.

In Null Paradox, we perceive life as a series of tiny hops from one universe to another stitched together to create the life they experience. This is facilitated by a machine briefly described in the first book (Gertrude & Grace), which plays a more significant role in the upcoming second book (Victoria & Seth).

 

Here’s the tricky part | Zero, One, and Two

The Gertrude, Grace, Victoria, and Seth that you read about are technically the primary ones. “Zero” is appended to their names to reduce confusion, as in Victoria Zero. The adjacent universe has a Victoria One. And so on, for all of them.

But Annabelle is different.  Her home universe is currently classified as “unknown.”
