Two characters who are introduced in part 5 of Moons of Aerith: Svengaar (Sven to most people, Swampy to Hannah) and Alana. Both of them are old friends of Hannah's (though her and Alana's friendship took a hit after they dated and broke up).

You know the feeling when you're watching the news and it's negative story after negative story and you can feel it sucking the life out of you, but you just can't look away? Yeah, so does Pedro. He's very prone to doomscrolling and feeling obliged to do something about every social issue ever. Annika is usually the one to pull him out of the Doom Pit. She's very determined and proactive and she will not stand for anyone saying negative things about Pedro - even Pedro himself.

Hannah: Openly brings a gun to dinner

Lee: Has also brought a gun, but has hidden it inside his coat

Realised I haven’t posted any art in ages, so here’s Annika standing on a balcony, feeling the wind in her hair. It’s a sensation she’s always loved.

Opal is definitely into minimalism. She just has the vibe. Whereas Annika is like ‘no, that’s my emotional support broken alarm clock!’.

I figured that after going her whole life without ever seeing it, Luci should have a strong opinion on snow. However, I couldn’t decide at first whether she should hate it or love it, so I drew both. After talking to my sister, I think I’m gonna go with Luci loving snow. It seems to fit her personality more.

Coloured some Moons of Aerith drawings.

First, a side-by-side comparison of Annika and Lee at a similar age (mostly to show off the hereditary freckles)

Then a redesign of Annika if she was a couple of years older in book 1.

Then Luci with short hair during the still-unwritten book 6.
