OC Askbox Game
I'm avoiding writing and you probably are too, so let's at least think about our characters while we do it.
You know the drill- send me a number (ONE number, you can come back for more) and I'll answer for an OC of your choice (if you know their name) or my choice (if you don't know their name). Feel free to name some of your OCs in the tags of your reblog, if you want to be asked about them.
How did you choose their name?
Were they created for the story, or was the story created for them?
Do they have a love interest, and was that their choice or yours?
Do they have a best friend? If so, how did they meet? If not, have they ever/why never?
Did they have a pet as a child?
What catalyzed their introduction to the plot?
What attribute of them (some facet of their personality, their history, their look, or whatever etc) would you find most important to somehow preserve if they were transplanted to an AU fanfic?
If your character's financial situation were to suddenly flip (someone poor becoming rich, someone rich becoming poor, etc), how well would they handle it? What would be the first thing they would do?
If your character could have handed their role in the plot to someone else, would they have?
Free Space #1: Which of your OCs would be most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse? Which would die immediately?
Does your character have a pet peeve?
Has your character committed any crimes (per their universe's laws)? If not, which crime would your character most likely commit?
Who is your character's closest (by relation, fondness, or distance) blood relative?
How does your character feel about riding horses (or your world's closest approximation of a horse if it lacks horses)?
Is your character's first instinct fight or flight? Is there something that could force them to do the opposite?
What is your character's favorite leisure activity?
Is your character holding any grudges? Are they likely to stop?
If your character were trapped on a deserted island, what three things would they want to have with them? Which person would they absolutely hate to be trapped there with? Which person would they enjoy being trapped there with?
Does your character having any health issues, whether they're aware of them or not?
Free Space #2: Which of your OCs would you most like to meet in person, if they could become real (or you could visit them) for a day?
Final Question: Ask me your own question about my OC
Remember: play nice! Send an ask to the person you reblogged this from, and try to send a few to folks that reblog from you!

For the prompt list, may I humbly request "Have you eaten today?" with Llewyn? I don't know why, reading the list that just struck me (probably because we know he more than likely hasn't eaten enough but would be more concerned if you did or not) . Many thanks, you will be helping a retail employee have something to look forward to during my least favorite season lol. Good luck on exams!!

Your mouth quirks in a wide smile the moment you notice him sitting at the bar. You throw your sponge aside, postponing the boring task in order to walk up to him.
“Hey you” you throw with a sweet smile, leaning your arms against the counter. He smiles back at you as he gets rid of his fingerless gloves, shoving the pair in his pocket.
“Figured I'd pay you a visit” he smirks, readjusting his position on the bar stool as you pour him a glass of rum.
“Yeah? You're coming here just for my eyes?” you ask jokingly, though innocently really wondering if he’s coming here just to see you. 
“Yeah,” he confirms teasingly, scoffing. “I'm not even playing here tonight.” he declares, looking over his shoulder to take a glance at the stage occupied by a double act that reminds him a bit of him and Mike a few years ago. 
“I'm honored then” you half joke, pushing the glass over to him when he turns back. A smile quirks upon his face before his fingers come to wrap around the glass. You watch as he takes a sip of his drink, a sigh of relief escaping his mouth once the glass meets the surface of the counter again.
“Tough day?” you ask, quickly wiping crumbs from previous patrons off the counter.
“Yeah,” he scoffs in what could resemble a sigh, running a hand over his beard. “It’s fucking cold out there.”
“I know” your mouth curls into a compassionate smile. “I couldn’t run around all day like you do.” you declare. He sends you a weak smile in response, one that translates his deeply rooted exhaustion. “Hey, have you eaten at all today?” 
He scoffs. “Barely. This morning only” he declares, voice muffled from being surrounded by his glass.
“Llewyn what the fuck” you scold him, sighing before disappearing through the door behind the bar. 
He scoffs again, shaking his head in incomprehension. 
You come back less than a minute later, a plate of cheese and charcuterie in hand that you put down right in front of him, making him raise an eyebrow when he looks back up at you. 
“On the house.” you nod, pinching your lips in a smile. “Well, it's on me. Pappi's gonna get my ass if he hears about this. The guy loves his money” you correct, pointing down at the plate to get him to react when he’s stuck staring at you like a deer caught in headlights. 
He finally snaps out of it. “Thank you. You didn't have to” he smiles sheepishly.
“It’s alright” you shrug him off.
“Have you eaten tonight?” he asks, almost accusingly. 
“No, not yet” you declare. “But I have eaten since this morning” you snap back, a teasing smile over your face.
“When are you getting off?” he asks.
“Uh… In like twenty minutes”
He nods, and smiles as he pushes the plate in the middle of the surface so the both of you can share it. You chuckle and take a piece of cheese.
“Have anywhere to stay tonight?” you ask, and he barely has time to reply; you can see he doesn’t.
“Alright, you’re coming home with me. And we’ll get something better to eat. We’ll feast”
“Sounds good to me” he laughs, sending you a sweet smile that makes your heart sway. “I’ll take you out once I’m rich and famous” he chuckles, earning a smile and a laugh from you. Seeing you laugh makes him smile all the brighter.

I like the idea of putting my blorbos on the Infinity Train. Force them to go through a harrowing experience specially fashioned to make them work through their issues (and leave them with a new set of issues afterwards)
So here's Bonesaw! She needs to stop thinking of other human beings and little more than art supplies. And being stuck on the Train for an indeterminate length of time will forcibly separate her from Jack, so she can begin to build an identity of her own for the first time in her life.

Do you have any "art hack" for drawing Oscar Isaac? He's surprisingly complicated to draw man and you draw him just exactly how he looks IRL
Aaah, it's hard to point only one "art hack" since his face it's a combination of his features...
But I'll try to simplify it so let's start:
Before starting anything, grab all the reference you can!! Every angle you can find: side profiles, 3/4, front, etc.
If something goes wrong in your process, you can always check your references and try to understand what's off (plus- you start to train your eye for Oscar likeness ✨)
So, what you need to understand is: his eyes, nose, and headshape (and maybe the eyebrows?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What matters about his eyes is his eyelid! How your draw eyes or your style in general doesn't matter that much as long as you keep the heavy eyelid.
Note that at the end of it, he has a little curve upwards (but depending on your style, doesn't matter if you don't want to keep it)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
His nose in side profile has a little bounce (idk how to call it? 😂) so you have the first curve, and your stop where the tip of his nose starts
The tip of his nose you can shape it as a round triangle in side profile, and as a round diamond when it's frontal angle (also, a tiny little mark in the middle of his nose in that angle)
Tumblr media
Depending on your character (or like- how old was Oscar at that point?) you can add small wringles at the sides of his nose. You can also use them if he's wrinkling his nose or making a particular expresion.
Tumblr media
I'm not quite sure how to describe his headshape... like an octagon that was cut in half? haha
The edges that connect the centre (his chin) together, can look longer depending on the angle of the face.
Tumblr media
Also! Details, but also he has prominent cheekbones and his earlobes shape is more noticeable in a frontview.
You don't need to add the cheekbones to make you drawing to look enough like him, but it's a nice touch
Tumblr media
I'm pretty simple with my eyebrows, but what's important it's the general shape. For him I use like a scalene triangle shape? but softer
He has thick eyebrows! so try to keep that in mind
Tumblr media
So add those things and there you go! An Oscar Isaac 😂
Don't feel discouraged if it doesn't look enough like him when you try, even I move things around until I get it (eternally affected by my anime style and keep drawing faces too long for men 😂🤣)
Hope this helps ❤

@ellakas I'm so glad you asked!
Zachary Taylor is one of those presidents that no one talks about in history class. But the thing is, in the 1840s, everyone was talking about him. He was the war hero of the Mexican-American War. The war itself (a blatant land grab by President Polk) was unpopular, but Taylor emerged as a beloved hero, because was a really good military commander, and because stories emerged about how humanely he treated Mexican prisoners.
Taylor was so popular that both political parties asked him to be their candidate in the next presidential election. He had never held political office. Never shown interest in politics. He had never even voted in a presidential election before! (His reasoning was that, as a military man, he didn't want to serve a commander-in-chief that he had voted against). Yet he was eventually persuaded to run--and win--as the Whig Party candidate.
(Fun fact! His wife, who had no interest in being a politician's wife, prayed that he'd lose the election. Taylor also showed his religious convictions by refusing to be sworn in on a Sunday, so his inauguration was delayed by a day, leaving the US president-less for twenty-four hours).
Even after he was president, Taylor had no interest in playing politics. He wanted to serve the country, not the party. He refused to play political games, purposely not appointing some of the big names of the party to his Cabinet so he could have more diverse voices representing a wider swath of the country. Still in the military mindset of "I give orders and people obey", he was frustrated that he was constantly questioned by Congress, and was very much at odds with them.
The big issue of his presidency was the fact that the US had just gained a ton of land from Mexico, and they had to decide if they'd enter the Union as slave or free states. Since Taylor was a slave-owning Southerner, the Southern Democrats hoped he'd side with them. But Taylor didn't want to expand slavery. First, because it's dumb--it's not like we can grow cotton or sugar in New Mexico or Arizona, so why would we even need plantations? But also because he was coming under the influence of some of the most vocal anti-slavery New York Whigs. To the great anger of the Democrats, Taylor said he wanted California to enter immediately as a free state, and would prefer all the territories to be free states. Before the issue could be resolved, he died. He got violently ill after Fourth of July celebrations in 1850 (because the White House water was still contaminated by human feces), and died five days later, after only a year and a half in office.
A year and a half isn't much time to make an impact. But I'm still fascinated by this president. He was a wonderful mess of contradictions. He was a Southern slave-owner who joined the Northern anti-slavery party. He was against all talk of secession--on the grounds of "I spent forty years serving this country and I want it to stay in one piece"--even though his son-in-law was (I'm not kidding) future president of the Confederacy Jefferson Davis. As a slave-owner and US military leader in the 1800s, he logically can't be a totally good guy, yet I get the sense that he was genuinely trying to be, in the context of his time. And he was showing signs of further character development. If he had lived, who's to say what he could have become, what he could have done?
But we'll never know, because his death left the country in the hands of Millard Fillmore, possibly the most aggressively mediocre man ever to become president (though I have high hopes for Chester Arthur). He actually has a pretty amazing origin story. He was the son of a dirt-poor farmer who apprenticed him to a cloth-maker in what became an indentured servitude situation. He scraped up enough money to buy his freedom and return home. Growing up, the only book he had to read was the Bible, until he turned 17 and bought himself a dictionary. At 20, he started taking adult classes to finally get the education he'd been denied; his teacher was a woman two years older than him who he eventually married. He became a lawyer, and then went into politics, serving in the New York State Legislature. He authored no significant bills. Made no big impact. The main traits people noticed about him were "tall" and "good-looking" (Queen Victoria did later call him the most handsome man she'd ever met). He was just kind of... there.
He was picked as Taylor's vice president for much the same reason Taylor was recruited as presidential candidate--he was moderate enough to appeal to both sides of the polarized political spectrum. New York was the home of the most vocal anti-slavery Whigs, but Fillmore was moderate on the slavery issue. As vice president presiding over the Senate, people mentioned he was "very fair" in how he let both sides speak. And that's like...the best people can say about him.
The question of the slave states eventually produced a bill that came to be known as the Compromise of 1850. Taylor--the enemy of compromise--was against it. Fillmore, a few days before Taylor's death, stated he would support it. After Taylor died, his entire Cabinet resigned rather than serve under a president who supported the Compromise. When the bill passed, Fillmore signed it into law.
The Compromise stated 1) California would enter the union as a free state; 2) the slave trade would end in Washington D.C.; 3) The other territories would decide for themselves if they wanted to allow slaves or not. Most importantly, it put the Fugitive Slave Act into effect, requiring all citizens, even in Northern states, to help return runaway slaves to their owners. The North was outraged over the Fugitive Slave Act; they wanted nothing to do with the practice of slavery and now the government was forcing even free states to support the institution. This law was meant to bring together both sides and prevent war, but it probably had the opposite effect, deepening the divide and hastening the plunge toward armed conflict.
This has led historians to speculate--if the more forceful, principle-driven Taylor had lived, could the path to Civil War at least have been delayed? No way to say, of course; maybe Taylor's solution would have made things worse. But the contrast between these two presidents is so fascinating. In Taylor, you have the apolitical war hero who sticks to his guns--the increasingly anti-slavery slave owner. Meanwhile, Fillmore is a bland politician from the most anti-slavery state who refused to speak against slavery--a man who never really achieved anything because he never really stood for anything. They're such complex characters, full of irony and contradictions, and I'm outraged that my history classes completely skipped over them on the way to Lincoln.

You discussed this already in your character analysis of James Norrington, but I was wondering what specific sort of ego death / metaphorical death James would have to experience if he did survive? Any ideas on what specifically would have to happen to him to achieve the proper character arc completion?
Ooooh that's a good question! Thank you for taking an interest in my original post :>
Now, what specific ego death would James have to go through to complete his character arc... well, let's get into it! To begin with, the most important thing that needs to happen is for James to realize that his Commodore/Admiral persona is not as just or righteous as he thought it was, and that most of the decisions he had made trying to hold onto that persona either directly or indirectly got people hurt, or even killed. I believe that James would begin to question his decisions up to this point as Beckett starts mass murdering people in the name of ending piracy, but he would try to ignore it and convince himself everything was fine, up until his reunion with Elizabeth where she informs him of her father's death and Beckett's deception on the matter, and he fully, completely realizes that he has let himself become corrupt and complacent to corruption, and that he needs to change.
After this, there are a few ways his "death" scene could go. Maybe he fakes his death so he can escape with Elizabeth without raising suspicion. Maybe he does get injured as he escapes with Elizabeth, and the crew of the Dutchman don't think he'll survive. Either way, the crew of the Dutchman need to think that the Admiral is dead - not just that he deserted, because he had done that before as a Commodore and still came back, but properly dead. Because as far as James is concerned, the Admiral is dead. Now that he has found a way off the Dutchman, James needs to come to terms with the death of his own internal identity. He is no longer Admiral James Norrington, Scurge of Piracy, and upholder of righteousness. He's just James. And he needs to fix the mistakes he has made. So he accompanies Elizabeth to Shipwreck Cove, and gives the pirates all the information he can about Beckett's approaching fleet. The number of ships, how well supplied they are, any weaknesses that could be exploited - anything and everything of relevance that could help the pirates take Beckett down. And then we get to the final battle - the Dutchman versus the Pearl.
Now, there are only two ways I can see this going that would be a satisfactory end to this part of James's character arc. Either he would die on the Dutchman, sacrificing himself for Elizabeth, Jack, or Will, or he survives the final battle, and pledges himself to Elizabeth and her unborn son, Jack and the Pearl, or Will and the Dutchman. Choosing to pledge himself to Elizabeth would be the easiest option, as there is no real moral dilemma or personal conflict there, and he'd be doing a good thing by looking after her and her son. Choosing to pledge himself to Will and the Dutchman would be a bit more difficult because of his personal conflict with both the ship and its new captain, but it would be rather poetic for his arc to end with him helping ferry the souls of the dead when so many had died because of his actions. Choosing to pledge himself to Jack and the Pearl would be the most difficult, both because of his personal conflict with Jack, and the moral dilemma of becoming a pirate after having spent so long in the Navy, even if the Navy turned out to not be as righteous as he had originally thought. It would definitely take him some time to come to terms with the decision, and he would need to find a balance between being a pirate, and being a good man(thankfully Jack already haa some experience in that department). Ultimately though, there is no correct answer for who James would end up choosing, and it's really up to personal interpretation. As a Sparrington shipper, it's clear who I think James would end up choosing, but if you think he'd be more likely to choose Will or Elizabeth, your opinion is equally as valid as mine!
And so, that's how I think James's ego death would go, and how he would reshape himself afterward. Thank you so much for the lovely ask, and thank you all for reading! I hope you all have a wonderful day <3
