Icon Get to Know Me Game!
Jan. 31st, 2019 09:28 pmI asked [personal profile] alwaysbeenasmiler to choose a few icons for me to get to talk about and they delivered! here are a few musings about three of my icons
This one is so fun! it's janet from the good place(who I always get nowadays when people choose a celebrity lookalike for me) with her cactus! in season one after janet is "rebooted" and comes back without her memories, she keeps making cacti instead of the files that michael wants her to be producing. i love it as an icon 1. because i love janet 2. because i look like janet 3. because it works perfectly for when i'm posting fic, fic recs, or anything else that i "created" as a here you go! and 4. because if i ever start posting about tgp it will be the perfect icon for that
santa iris! i already talked about this one but the gist is that i love iris and that her with a santa hat is the ultimate cute overload and the perfect christmas icon
oh my gosh! this icon has the coolest story and it lets me brag the most. i am SO EXCITED TO TALK ABOUT THIS! this icon is from fanart that arrival layne did of my fic Rite of Passage it's a star wars rebels fic that was set in an alternate universe where ezra bridger was mirialan and it's a fic that i'm still really proud of! it allowed me to explore a lot of found family feelings i had about the swr characters and it was my first real experience with creating my own worldbuilding! the basic premise was that getting your facial tattoos in mirialan culture was a major coming of age ritual and that if you were denied them you were being shunned socially for some reason and were referred to as a "blankface" which basically means that your culture has deemed you to be nothing and the members of it have thrown you out. ezra does not have his facial tattoos at an age where he should have gotten them because he does not live with other people who are from his species and culture and the rest of the space family tries to help him get through it when they realize... oh shit. this is... a thing. we need to fix this thing...
i also explored some angsty the clone wars ship feels because i was lazy with the design and literally gave him barriss offee from the the clone wars.
