That's it. That's about it that's my reason: sass.
In all seriousness, though, I've been wanting to play an adult for a while now. And so when I started my rewatch of Charmed back in late November... Piper very, very quickly became a character I had refallen in love with. She's definitely my "type". Which for older not tiny, dead girls is badass ladies who are generally pretty selfless and willing to stick up for anyone. And I've sat on it since about then going, "but she would be really interesting in Aather!"
We've actually seen her amnesiac'd to varying degrees in canon and so that's helped a lot in playing her, but I really wanted Aather!Piper because... There are a lot of kids her who could use a mom figure? That's not the only reason but I thought it would be interesting to pull Piper away-- a woman who does NOT do change in any form at all-- and make her stand on her own two feet. No elders, no Prue, no sisters in general, no Leo. She's made a stronger character because of all of these things, especially Prue, so in a situation without them it's an interesting idea! At the same time I'm an awful person and really look forward to seeing how she handles finding out she's a wife and mother and Aather made her forget (hint: it won't go down well)!!!
