🎬—Who would you cast as your characters? (If you've not already been asked this!)

Thank you for the ask! I was hoping I'd get this question even though it is SO HARD :')

I have people in mind for the cast of my WIPs, but I am fully aware that they might be too old, or not tall enough, or any other manner of obstacles. The following are my 'head canon cast' - the people I'd put in a gifset in a 'movie magic' kind of casting.

For the Adventures of Sitora Lux:

Sitora - Dianna Agron

I have had such a hard time finding an actor who has the youthful, unassuming joy that I picture in Sitora. Dianna has it. The main thing that I'd look for in casting Sitora would be her smile. Never mind that she's 5'5" and Sitora's a cool 6'. That's what movie magic is for 😂

Raelynn Thenorin - Danielle Rose Russell

Saw a gifset on Tumblr and just thought "That's my Raelynn". In particular, her bone structure just makes her look so much like how I pictured Rae. ❤️

Lance Marrowstone - Malachi Kirby

Just look at my boy! Lance is a major sweetheart and a badass fighter, and it was important to me that I choose a Black British actor for him.

Trix - Brenda Song

Brenda is who I pictured when I wrote Trix, and she's just got that glamorous, superior look down pat. She's older than the character is supposed to look, but we have time powers here.

And for Grey-Sky Lark:

I really only have two MCs for this story, so I'll talk about them.

Protagonist

It's very uncool how much Timepiece Chardonnay suits my protagonist: he's got that baby face and the typecasting of being a brooding lil guy. But part of me really does want to see him go completely feral and murder a 300lb Viking.

Matthew Raynott - Dan Stevens

I was agonising about the casting for Matthew when I realised that I literally named him after Matthew from Downton Abbey. Is it any coincidence that Dan is the perfect fit? I've been on Pinterest literally staring at gifs of my blorbo for days now.

For Chrissie's of London:

Silas Chrissie - Aaron Taylor Johnson

I don't know how to tell you that Silas Chrissie is somewhere near the midpoint of Aaron Taylor Johnson's 2012-2022 detwinkification process. Also, Silas is NOT meant to look this good with a moustache.

Jacques de Éloïe - Louis Garrell

A jawline built for angst. Big brown universe eyes to get lost in. That's my boy!

Loretta Cramps - Helen George

Can rock a period look? Check. Can rock a bob? Check. Totally nails Loretta's down-to-earth, smartest-person-in-the-room vibe? Yes!

Amanda Suffolk - Jessica Chastain

Absolutely frothing at the mouth for Jessica Chastain in any period pieces. The only problem with her taking on Amanda as a fairly small role is that she would totally steal the show.

Look, this whole exercise does make me a little uncomfortable. Am I going to get cancelled in the future if any of these actors end up being problematic? Maybe. Is this an official 'author's endorsement' for casting my stuff? Hell no, this is just so my followers can see who I see in my head. A small part of me does find this desperately creepy too >_< but also it's been fun.

29, 28, 11, 3, 6? 🎨🖌️

accidentally bUSY ALL DAY OOPS!! you gave me some good questions too ooooh

3. What ideas come from when you were little?

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure tbh! I could say my love for drawing backgrounds and hair perhaps? A lot of my earlier characters had some pretty fantastic and fun hair, and if I'm not drawing boxes or hatchmarks in empty spaces on my pages, then I was drawing trees. Writing wise,,, mm perhaps Calvin and Hobbes tbh. A wonder to explore the world, but also not shy away from it's edges, best you can, when they rise up round you.

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously?

Ough, the only thing I can think of is Jubilations, how they drew people was inspiring and made me draw people as a result. Writing wise, I am almost positive that A Series of Unfortunate Events being The(tm) book series that got me into reading with the ferocious appetite I've got now has rooted itself deep into my creative subconscious somehow, though I could not tell you what marks it has left. I haven't read the series since middle school, so a reread would make those spots clear I think!

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what?

Depends on what I'm drawing usually! If it's a character of mine, I've got a collection of character playlists I try to pop on so I'm staying close to their vibes. I have "monthly" playlists I'll cycle through as well - monthly being in quotations because they tend to go on longer than that before I build the next one. Sometimes I'll just,,,, listen to the same song over and over. Yesterday I listened just to "Tongue and Teeth" by the Crane Wives, then after dinner, I put up "The Garden" (also by the Crave Wives) and listened to that till bedtime XD I try to match the vibe of what I'm drawing though.

Writing wise, if it's for RP, I'll use the character playlist. If it's fic wise, depends on the fic but it'll either be something I can tune out (instrumental and/or lowfi, or thunderstorms) or will drown out the rest of my thoughts (sometimes the fic's playlist, sometimes, like yesterday, it's tongue and teeth by the crane wives XDD)

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)?

Kinda :o!! I've participated in Secret Exchanges in roleplay groups before, and I've submitted my art to contests, but nothing fandom wise yet! I'd love to try a zine some day, but my tendency to lean towards slumbering fandom makes that a challenge

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically?

This is a REALLY TRICKY QUESTION because I am a creative soul by nature. I get inspired by the clouds going by, by how my plants look during the day, just about anything and everything. I think the only, only piece of media I went: yeah that's perfect, as is, was Red Dead Redemption 2. I've reblogged art and gifsets, and read a very small collection of fanfic [it's a hard voice to mimic, I get it] but I've never felt the urge to create in it myself. I adored how the story went, and it's certainly spurred my cowboy love further, but Hell-Raising had already taken over, so it was merely feeding a fire already lit. Absolutely amazing game, 11/10, would wipe my memory to play it anew

#thank you friend!!#thank you for being patient too oops #sometimes my queue surprises me XD #ask meme #long post

v glad to hear the burn will be slooow (&hopefully painful, and organic 🤞) so we can appreciate all the canon vidding (à défaut de fanvids 🥲 💘). speaking of, how do you make your gifs? do you record your screen, download the eps, something else? I’m very ignorant but curious on that front! and music-wise, That’s Me is so morgane 🤯🤯 Take a Chance on Me works great too, whoa (&I’d never heard She’s My Kind of Girl, it's v disturbing to hear the guys haha) a thought: Ring Ring for your POV fic

(Julia's adventures with the HPI anon)

Gosh, I'm all here for a sloooooooow burn!!! 😱🔥 Also it may sound weird but I think I'd just lose interest in the ship if they actually got together, like really as a couple? My jam is the longing, the pining, the miscommunication, all these moments leading to the final resolution but I have no interest whatsoever in what happens after that lol! So yeah, deffo hoping they'll keep chasing after one another for a while!

Okay, phew, giffing. Well, I had never giffed anything before I got into HPI (I guess Good Girls got me into writing and HPI into giffing, learn something new every ship and whatnot) so I'm just getting started on that journey and won't pretend my MO should be taken as gospel. I do download the eps, which is something I did before anyway (I've been an internet pirate and downloaded stuff since 2011, LOL 😅).

And then there's a whole process involving Photoshop which I learned from many tutorials and also the incredible help of my dear mutuals. I'll take that opportunity to make a public shoutout to @sdktrs12 and @lemoncupcake for answering my questions and being absolute rockstars who clearly saved me an immense amount of time. 💕💕💕 Ngl, giffing is a very time-consuming hobby but I'm having tons of fun. I thought I wouldn't bother you with all the technical details, but feel free to ask if you're interested! Also I can link you some of my non-spoilery gifsets if you'd like!

Yay, glad you liked all the ABBA stuff!! She's just my kind of girl is one of my fave songs but I agree it's quite a ufo in their discography, haha! (not sure you can use ufo the same way you talk about ovnis in French but eh). And oh, ring ring deffo has the vibe too! 😍
