Favorite AROIIS characters 1/12 : Isabeth

I usually headcanon Isabeth as dark haired but I liked the grace that emanates from the woman in the picture I picked

Favorite AROIIS ships 3/10 : Lockart (Carter x Hemlock)

I've made a moodboard for Carter before but I wasn't entirely satisfied and I didn't know why (well the person playing Viola/Cesario in the 2009 RSC looked older than I thought she was but that was not it). And then it eventually struck me. I didn't thought of Carter as white.

So I started researching Emilie Kouatchou because theatre and opera : period costumes and you wouldn't believe (I'm afraid you would) how hard it is to find non-white people in Victorian clothes on the internet. I also looked her up because there's a masquerade ball in the story. That and someone mentioning an Erik's boyfriend and I may have associated that with POTO.

However I saw a pic of Lucy St Louis as Christine with Meg Giry's actress (Ellie Young) and decided 'That's my Carter. It's him'.

And yes, the flirting at the ball and romance was short-lived and we didn't see much of Hemlock afterwards but it was fun as it lasted.
