Meet Izzy and Nic: 1994 (OCs)
Izzy and Nick share everything including a birthday and a bedroom, but not an outlook on life. Growing up in Middleton, Wisconsin, they attend Komrey Middle School. Isabella always looks just so, her desk is always tidy and her homework is always done. However, her twin Nicolette, or Nic for short, seems to spend her afternoons and weekends running from one practice to the next. In class, she doodles all the time and has to ask her sister about the lesson she’s missed. Izzy seems to have it all together with her perfect outfits and clean desk but when life throws her a curve, she struggles to hit the ball.
Last Halloween, when they were eight, Izzy and Nic wore matching black cat costumes but lately they haven’t been matching much. Their mother, Christina, is disappointed but understands that they are developing their own tastes and identities.
Izzy always seems to know what she wants and this year she wanted to be a medieval princess, so their mother has been working on her costume for weeks. Nic can’t figure out what to be for Halloween but Izzy points out that she loves swimming in the lake and would make a great lake creature. Nic uses her artistry and creativity and concocts the perfect outfit from items she finds in their father’s fishing boat, the garage and a discarded dress of her mother’s. Nic worries that her costume will look unimpressive next to her twin’s, but Izzy is so enthusiastic about Nic’s creation that she proudly trick or treats through the neighborhood by her sister’s side. When they get home, their Halloween buckets overflow with candy.
Next Up: Things get more complicated when Izzy and Nic Learn a Lesson
a note on this project: I came into these early AGOTs over several years as well as their outfit collection. When I set out to create this story line, I was pondering the question of whether or not AG would use any of the early AGOT items in the new line. If so, what would it look like? It’s an interesting conundrum: if AG will be true to their own past or go for something differently nostalgic. As an experiment in play, I stuck with what I had with just a few purchases to complete outfits and diy’d a few items as well, as I imagine a young me would do. A few promises - the leaked part of the story of the twins Jewish heritage will be explored as well as complex and impactful current events from the time. I have the six book story arc descriptions completed and so excited to share it with you :)

Black Cat Sloth - All Hallow's Sloths
Alright, sound off if you also dressed as a black cat by wearing a black turtleneck shirt, a pair of black leggings, a set of cat ears, and a tail safety pinned to the back of the leggings.
[Image description: A cartoon sloth standing bipedally. It is dressed in a black turtleneck shirt and black leggings, and a cat-ear headband. There is a black tail emerging from behind it, hanging fairly limply towards the ground. The sloth is holding up its claws in the anime style cat paw hand gesture. In one claw it holds an orange bucket with a jack-o-lantern face on it. The sloth's eyes are closed and it has a pink nose and black whiskers painted on its face.]

When times are hard and the news is basically awful, I feel it’s necessary to repost this photo of Darwin as Science Officer Meow.
