I participated in the Far Cry 5 Anniversary Gift Exchange, hosted by @detectivelokis, and was paired with @jinfromyarikawa!
So here is my gift for you: a drawing of your OC, Rose Cortéz :)
I studied the moodboards you created, the picrew images you made, and the fics you wrote to gather information. When it came to her appearance, I saw that she had a faceclaim, Eiza Gonzáles, long and curly hair, and was usually associated with the color red, flowers, ornate dresses, and gold jewelry. Rose, especially after she married the Father and became “The Mother”, struck me as someone with an aura of confidence, dignity, and power.
It seemed to me that they were a fusional couple, very supportive of each other. But it also appeared that their relationship, at least at the beginning, was not the healthiest and that, in your story, Joseph was rather manipulative. Even though I wanted the focus to be on Rose, I included his hand (covered by hers, with her wedding ring visible) on her shoulder to symbolize their love, the strength of their bond, the fact they can rely on each other… but also a hint of control. Joseph’s blue rosary, which contrasts with his wife’s red dress, is a reminder that religion is one of the foundations of their relationship.
Anyway, that’s everything I wanted this portrait to represent. I really, really hope I did your OC (and your ship) justice and that you like this gift! And thanks again, @detectivelokis, for hosting this event!
