What’s her story?

[ceciliasheplin]

Who is she?

What’s the prompt?

In The Woods Somewhere (E)

Prince Ben is fatally wounded from battle, stumbling hopelessly into the woods. As he finally falls, he sees a wood nymph. They are not known to suffer humans to enter into their territory so Ben hopes for a quick death.

Nymph Rey for #Reyloween23

Here are the manips in more detail.

For Rey’s, I wanted a pic that showed how brutal a rugby match can be. The head is a TFA screen cap with some dirt on her, hehe!

She’s tough, she’s angry and she’s the best rugby player in Chandrila U.

I’m in love with my feral rugby baby 🥹🏉❤️

Now for Ben’s manip…

I had SUCH A TERRIBLE TIME having to go through all those pics of thick rugby players to find the right body 😩😏

The black and white jersey was perfect for the FO, all I had to do was add the First Order insignia (did you notice? 👀)…

The head is from a old/new pic of AD that appeared on my timeline by chance just at the right moment. His hair is wet so it looks like he’s sweaty. Just perfect. I was very lucky!

He looks so gd SEXY!!!!!! 😭🔥

Here is the link for the fic, if you’re interested.

A #reylo rugby fic 🏉

Rey is the proud captain of the women’s Resistance Rugby team. She hates their greatest rival, the First Order. Especially the men’s captain, Kylo Ren.

Magician AU!!! (Or not)

The original picture is from The Illusionist, a cute movie that I love that would be great as a Reylo AU, especially gender swapped. This time, it was Ben who gave me a hard time instead of Rey who fell into it perfectly. The throne room scene is where both heads come from 🥰

[taiyourae-art]

Gym AU where Ben is that inconsiderate dick that never wipes down the machine when he's finished and Rey is sick of sitting in his sweat

[ceciliasheplin]

Nothing like a horse ride to take your mind off things…

I was going to correct Rey’s hair colour back to chestnut but she looked so pretty with her reddened locks blowing in the wind, so I decided to leave it as it was.

I also made her dress pink 💖

[ceciliasheplin]

Who are they? A powerful queen and her loyal knight? A lost man in love with a wood nymph? A goddess and her most fervent worshipper?

What’s the prompt?

This one gave me such a hard time! Ben was simple (I overuse this photo of him but #1 he looks gorgeous and mysterious #2 the light is very forgiving) but Rey wouldn’t cooperate. In the end Ophelia saved me again! Either way, I couldn’t let such a gorgeous photo go “unmaniped” 😜

Rey, in the middle of her first concert, thinking: “Why is that man taking off his shirt? What does it mean??”

Ben, now shirtless: “Groupie life, here I come!”

Prompt by @jenofthemidwest

The base is from the band Wolf Alice! And Rey’s body is from her acceptance speech at the MTV movie awards back in 2016.

[ceciliasheplin]

Lord Solo will fall in love at first sight, that’s for sure!

Who is she? What’s the prompt?

The body is from Poldark again! I’m on a streak, haha. And I had to work Rey’s face a lot because of the soft light behind her. She looks so gorgeous… I’m in love!

[ceciliasheplin]

NEW MANIP!!!

Who are they? What are they running from? What’s the prompt?

The base is from Poldark but I had to make his body bigger to go with Ben’s (hehe) and Rey is such a good match for Demelza. The heads are obviously from Vanity Fair’s promo pics from that cursed movie but at least they gave us Ben’s majestic hair so I guess it was a good thing.

Unholy (E)

Priest Ben Solo is travelling through the countryside when he’s robbed and left for dead. He’s helped by a mysterious woman and she nurses him back to health. Is there more to her than meets the eye?

NEW MANIP!!!

Royalty Reylo!

It took me ages to find Rey’s picture as always and boy the colour correction kicked my ass, but it was worth it.Ben looks so regal so effortlessly… he takes it after his mom ❤️

Bergamot & Jasmine (E)

Ben Solo lives a lonely life until he meets someone who makes him feel like he doesn’t want to be alone anymore.

This is my favourite dark fic that I wrote. I love stalker!Ben and his nasty mind so much. The tug of war of emotions and morality he has with himself which only leads to him going darker is what I’m most proud of. This Ben is the worse character that I’ve written and I love him to death!

PS: This is probably my favourite Rey too, but I won’t spoil it for you 🤫
