Masculine: Marionette

Masculine, young adult vocal age. A high-pitched, strained, and slightly nasal texture suggesting a wooden or mechanical body. Rapid, jerky pacing with sudden shifts between frantic longing and hollow despair. The performance is theatrical and stylized, featuring sharp intakes of breath and a fragile, staccato delivery that conveys a soul trapped in a rigid, artificial form.

Script: Please, don't tug the strings so hard, I can almost remember how choosing felt, and that little memory hurts more than the splinters ever do.
