“Every morning I’d go greet my grandmother, pay my respects to those desiccated elders with a false insouciant smile and…. Hah. Entertain them.” THE LORD OF HONGYUAN IS HERE!!!!!!
6th renditions of Ishqueg because I am very predictable.
I think I would have made Queequeg play more tricks with Ishmael’s mace and then drop it had I could actually draw. She would try to look cool, I think, which is the most uncool thing possible. I have to do that. I have to make her a girlfailure.
Middle Queequeg would be more forced than someone like Ricardo. We already know that deep down, she feels that the Middle is deeply horrible, so everything she's doing is an act. Yet, I don't think she's particularly good at acting. This is probably something residual in her canonical portrayal. She is a deeply honest character, I think. I can't imagine her being very good at acting or lying. So her act fails.
I want to make her look a bit sincere, lying all the time is tiring.
