Before I get to talk about my girl, can we talk about this brush? lowkey obsessed with the level of variety in linework and the grunge :D (it's the "Matte Pastell" Brush in Ibis Paint, I believe it's default like this and i love it)
Anyway, Pallas' favorite color is yellow, always has been and always will be ;) and that is her favorite plushie (yes she will also have a blahaj once they become a thing in the timeline, I think they're not that old yet)
i love ma bb <3 (and I didn't even kill her in this fic. I gave her a slight boost to the rejection sensitive dysphoria that she was predestined for anyway cos ✨ADHD girlie✨ and that's about the worst I did, no one ever call me mean again)
I'm a writer and artist, love hurt/comfort, found family, character design and media analysis. (Also jewelry, colors, design in general including CSS, fonts, cats, my blahaj, fairytales, crafts, singing, etc.)
So I have stuff like that on my blog, and the rest of the time I yap about my life, chat with my moots, and do silly Tumblr things.
Some facts about me:
24 yo, based in Germany
Majoring in Multimedia (aka crying about pixels)
Either busy writing, making arts and crafts, or on tumblr
Feel free to tag me in stuff, whether it be tag games or just stuff that made you think of me :D
(If you don't want to be tagged in tag games and stuff, please let me know, I'll stop)
I know it won’t mean shit to the bots, but for genuine questions: I don’t do art commissions or strict requests, but if you have a suggestion and I like it, I may doodle it when I have time.
(dividers and badges in this post are by me :D)

My sideblog for all things Nemori: @nemori-novel
Like I said, you can find me on Ao3 (and on Insta) as Mer_acle and on youtube as mer_acle8101, I have some animatics and film analysis videos on there
And finally, my fandoms (non-exhaustive lol)
EPIC The Musical and Greek Mythology would be the big ones especially at the moment, but I also like (/have watched/read /can be talked to about):
MCU (Infinity Saga mainly), Dracula, 12 Angry Men, Alice in Wonderland, Anne of Green Gables, LotR, The Boys, The Promised Neverland, Kpop Demon Hunters, Six of Crows, Hazbin Hotel, Mean Girls (Musical and otherwise), Heathers (Musical and otherwise), Beetlejuice (Musical and otherwise), AtlA, Encanto (and most of the well-known disney catalogue), The Fall of the House of Usher, Miraculous (okay I have mostly lore on that rather than Watchtime), It (Stephen King), Hamilton, SIX, The Agatha Christie catalogue lol, Sherlock Holmes, Elementary (currently watching S3), Descendants, Stranger Things (mostly S1 tho), Saw, Final Destination (honestly I'm not listing more horror stuff, chances are I know something about it at least, I like watching videos about horror movies), Five Nights at Freddy's (just lore LOL), the Princess Bride, etc etc
You know the drill, the girls get pretty outfits (boys at some point too when I've had time to adjust the model)
The least visible thing about this is Hera's hairstyle bc it's usually tied back into a clasp, so imagine that please.
Outfit No. 1 is a going out kinda outfit, Hera has a very put together style in general, so this would be casual stuff for her.
Outfit No. 2 is how we meet her in the hospital timeline, it's just more casual cozy home stuff (Hera loves cardigans, it's something she absolutely shares with Hestia)
Outfit No.3 is kinda business-casual again, for work when it's a little colder or similar things
and Outfit No. 4 is the summer look, based very simply on an outfit I recently wore and could not stop thinking that Hera absolutely would wear that.
So I was tagged in a tag game where you're supposed to give your eye color, zodiac sign, and favorite season, so obv I had to do it for the SW crowd instead of sleeping.
Also their zodiacs aren't really picked purposefully, I just picked their birthdays based on what month I feel they're like lol
You can tell this by the fact that no one has my zodiac sign lol
Athena: grey – Scorpio - Summer (because that's the most time she gets to spend with her brothers)
Ares: brown – Cancer – Summer (wooh summer break and ice cream)
Aphrodite: dark brown – Aquarius – Spring (because flowers and feelings and all that)
Hera: green – Aries – early Spring (she likes new beginnings, it's when Demeter gets better emotionally, and everything is starting to wake up more)
Hephaestus: green – Aries – Fall (because everything is orange and also being inside crafting is nicer when it's cold out)
Metis: grey – Capricorn – Winter (She liked the thoughtfulness of it, and it's when her baby was born)
Pallas: sea green – Cancer – late Summer (part of shark seasonnn)
Hestia: black – Virgo (happy lil accident) – Fall (cos pumpkins and cinnamon obv)
Demeter: brown – Gemini – Summer (It's when Persephone visits usually and also bye seasonal depression when it's warm :D)
Zeus: brown – Leo – Summer (Summer has the best thunderstorms)
