It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to

Happy birthday Stella. I’m sorry you’re still in there. Don’t worry. They’re waiting for you once you get out

WCS Aaron cause why not. Since Basira was the one who actually killed him I decided to give him some shadow scarring and a white eye (is this to parallel Basira’s white eye in a weird kind of narrative foil way? Maybe). Also yes, the earring is Red’s. I will explain, just not here. (Please ask me)

Character asks!

These are more focused on the background stuff rather than the usual "what would the character do in XY situation" kinds of asks. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while and in the end decided to make my own. Feel free to use, go wild, enjoy

What was the original thought that led to the creation of this character?

How long was the process before the character reached its final version? (or a version that would be clearly recognizable as the character?)

What was the first thing you decided on, the character's name, appearance, personality or their role in the story?

And reverse, which one of the four things did you struggle with the most?

How did you choose their name and why? Was it simply based on vibes or is there any specific meaning behind the name? Are the reasons behind their name different in- and out of universe?

What was the thought process behind their appearance? Did you go mostly for the aesthetic or are there other reasons they look the way they do?

What is an aspect of their appearance that you like the most?

What is the origin of their personality? And let's be honest - how much of it is projecting?

How big is their role in the story? Do they make a frequent appearance or are they a character with little "screentime" but big influence? Or are they just a favourite background guy?

What is their main character arc in the story? Where do they start and how do they develop? Do they get a happy ending or is their story a tragic one?

Is there any existing character from other media that your character resembles? Was the resemblance intentional or was it a coincidence?

Do you have a playlist for the character? What songs do you associate with them and why?

Do you have a voice claim for the character? What do you imagine the character sounds like?

Do you have any quotes tied to the character, either from the story itself or from another source that fit them?

Have you ever made a moodboard for them?

Is there any memes or running jokes associated with the character, both in- and out of universe?

Are there any motifs or symbols associated with the character? How are they represented, in their design, personality or in some other way?

Does the character have other characters connected to them? Do you have a family tree and "offscreen" connections made up for them or do they exist in a vacuum purely for the purpose of the story?

What is your general favourite thing about the character? What is your least favourite?

Bonus question: share any additional thoughts, art, favourite scenes, anything you've been waiting for a chance to ramble about

I think the funniest thing about WCS is that, Jon is basically just Tma jon (except for one other thing but spoilers) but with a different ending. Like, the only thing I had to change was the ending. Original Tma ending gives both Jon and Martin hope, I just needed to take that away. In the original Au by @the-lantern-lights, Jon has to wander the eyepocalypse without Martin, but I thought giving him hope only to take it away would almost be crueler.

Happy Pride with the WCS gang! Remind me to stop drawing stuff with the season one gang because Sasha’s design is stupidly detailed.

I need y’all’s help

okay so, I’m not sure how to pace the last stretch of this mini arc, so I’ll ask you. Should I do a more fluffy, character focused chapter before the final chapter and cram everything in there or should I stretch it out between two chapters?

Happy pride with Eve! And yes, I did make my very obvious biblical allegory an Aroace trans women. Take from that whatever symbolism you want.

I’m posting this here because this is my way of soft launching WCS Eve’s design for everyone (except @cloudofthecats. He saw it first). Yeah, so Eve in WCS is an ivory/white goth, not because her being alt is her worst case scenario but cause I wanted to play around with more goth subtypes and because of religious symbolism reasons. White goths look like angels to me and I decided to use that to my advantage. Also it works as a nice contrast to her default design ironically.

Who knew fallen angels wear white in this world
