bored bc of quarantine, got back into irish mythology, long story short I read all of in loco parentis in one feverish sitting and was wondering how you picture the characters in that modern setting, design-wise?
ahhh i’m glad i could be your pandemic distraction! i thought i might actually write more of in loco parentis during lockdown but that has. not happened.
anyway i don’t really have a visual brain?? probably because i’m faceblind as fuck lol. i have been known to write entire novels without ever describing the characters and when asked why, have had to admit that it’s because i don’t know what they look like. i usually have a vague sense of colouring or like. one facial feature.
but ferdia looks like a young jamie campbell bower i know that much, like.....
a baby!
he’s like 19 or 20 in that picture and ferdia is supposedly 19-ish in the fic so yeah seems about right. anyway that’s what i’m picturing in my head when i describe him.
but he’s basically the only one i have a faceclaim for so he’s the only one i’ve actually.... described.
láeg is tall and thin and ginger and has poor fashion sense, but like, in a gay way. likes plaid. has been known to wear triple plaid. (so have i, so i can’t really talk.) wears lilac occasionally and really shouldn’t.
cú chulainn is small and his hair is mostly dark?? but catches the light in weird ways and seems to be multiple colours and maybe secretly has highlights who knows. he also has poor fashion sense but in a very different direction to láeg, he is all about the cut-up t-shirts and a shitton of random layers and basically live in dance clothes anyway
that’s about all i know for appearance tbh!!! if anyone wants to draw how they imagine them i’d be super duper excited by that but i will not be able to tell you if it matches my mental image because... i don’t have that kind of a mental image of them. i sort of visualise scenes in terms of like.... where people are existing in space to each other, rather than what they look like. basically i choreograph scenes rather than paint them in my head. if that make sense.
also yes all of the terrible outfits in this fic were intended to roast the characters but i’ve more than once found that i’m.... wearing that exact outfit, by coincidence, several months after writing it. so there are multiple self-burns in this fic.
(except for cormac’s amazing slogan t-shirts. i lack these in my life.)
also if you go to the #ilp inspo tag there are a bunch of ballet clips and pictures that like.... may not visually match the characters but give off the right vibe so there’s that as well
Me, listening to the latest episode of “The Adventure Zone” for the first time and learning of Hollis’s existence: Every time I am introduced to a character who uses they/them pronouns, I become slightly more powerful.

(end of the year asks) thanks for the ask!!
20: What’s something you learned this year? hmmm I improved my skill as a 3D artist a huge amount and got promoted at my job doing that, so I guess I learned a lot professionally? :^) personally I learned that I'm much more mentally stable these days - god knows how 2015-2017 me would have coped with the chaos of 2020 yikes. OH and I attempted NaNoWriMo for the first time this year and learned a ton about narrative structure!
23: If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be? cheesy but: it's gonna turn out okay, you're gonna make it <3 also do not sleep on filing your tax return PLEASE. save your future self a lot of stress
25: Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one I started a new fallout new vegas playthrough last month and pulled the name persimmon directly out of my ass for my courier! she developed as I played and now she's a bi sniper with strawberry blonde hair and she's pretty benevolent for the most part. she does steal a bit, is slightly twitchy, and tends to panic inhale 5 different types of chems whenever she sees something that looks likely to fuck her up. which is often because she's pretty shrimpy. boone's used to her by now
galway-bae replied to your post “finally finished soul eater again… i forgot how unsatisfying i found...”
dude I never watched the anime but I was OBSESSED with the manga when I was in middle school, idk if it holds up but I loved it back then
soul eater was the first ‘fandom’ i was in and my love for it is coming back so strong lately. i think what makes it so appealing is a mixture of really interesting concept, really ridiculous humor, and bomb as hell horror imagery
galway-bae replied to your post: its tomorrow folks
