She looks so happy. Wonder what she's looking at...
(P.S. it's YOU 🫵... or Merula)
Ever since I got into HL, Abia hasn't been getting as much attention, so I decided to go back to a WIP I had stored from MONTHS ago, do the hair, and color it in. Played around with the shading for once!
And of course, she had to be winking. What's an Abia drawing without her iconic wink?
(Also, the background is just a blurred version of something screenshotted by @/light-of-the-room)
And here goes another one, I feel quite inspired that I was really excited to see how this would come out.
Just a few thoughts about my canon:
Felicia accepted to go with Ben to the Yule Ball since she overheard that Talbott wasn't interested (at first).
Ben was delighted, althought at the second half of the party he spent his time dancing with Rowan and a few other friends, while Felicia took a break near the snack table.
However she didn't expect to see Talbott since he said plenty of times that parties were not his cup of tea. Andre convinced him and made a suit specially for him (they soon realized that their outfits were a little matching)
Felicia and Talbott danced together before the Ball ended <3
Why is Paula in contact with Merula but hasn’t turned her in in the future?
Paula owns her a lot, and she's also her friend.
She'd never betray a friend.
Merula becomes a Death Eater when Voldemort returns due to her family's influence with him. Yes, her parents were good to her and she has fond memories with them, but they were still dark wizards who actively supported the Dark Lord.
She really can't handle the pressure. But what could she do? Her parents weren't like her aunt, not in the slightest... she could never refuse them.
And Paula is aware of it. She knows family can be such a burner in your life and you can't run away from it, even if you want to. So, whenever they can, Paula lends Merula a shoulder to cry on.
...It's the least thing she can do.
so, i've kinda made Merula's parents two of the ten death eaters who escaped from azkaban in the mass breakout in 1996, to add more drama to it all shdsahd
it seems like there's only seven confirmed death eaters so i could fit her parents right there to spice things up hee hee
