I've had this account 6 years and I've never made an official post about who the hell I am 🧍
Hi! I'm lu and im a 22 Yr old UK based artist!
I am a big big BIG 80s nerd (I am so normal about new wave and synth pop don't even joke lad) so much so I have an alt account for 80s stuff if you're interested 👀 @ladyonthephone <!!!!
My fanart masterlist is here where you will find out how deranged I am about jeff waynes war of worlds (alt account for that too @farewellthunderchild )
I am also a big fan of silly campy films and anything involving puppets. Other interests include: horror, silent films, film history, musicians that do weird shit,the monkees, vintage fashion, clowns, britcoms, physical media and drawing silly little pictures
At the moment I'm deeply obsessed with my own ocs, my favourites right now are my synthpop duo technobabble (if I ever make a lore post for them it'll be here) but I sprinkle in a few fanart posts too ♡

they're all revenges! i've been so spoiled with gorgeous attacks from so many incredible artists this year already. i tend to prioritise revenging people who have taken the time to do my little guys so much justice, because it means so much to me. and a lot of y'all are my friends/mutuals who beat me to an attack before i could get you first. 😂

PART ONE of my first Sterling Girl infographic! 🧚♀️♾️
PART TWO
This is an abridged version of my initial pitch essay I wrote for university. The changeling child myth is what inspired me to undertake this project in the first place, and I knew this post would be essential for conveying why it evokes so much passion in me. I hope you enjoy it — maybe you'll learn something new!
Including but not limited to: the release date! That's right, release is set for July 5th, 2026. I am so near completion on editing the piece, and I absolutely cannot wait for you all to hear it.
The biggest, sincerest THANK YOU to everyone who has followed this account and supported me thus far. Please look forward to more information and previews coming soon! ⚙️🎀
(PS: As this is my first post of this kind, feedback on formatting, conciseness and things of that nature is encouraged and appreciated!)
Plain text version below the cut!
What are 'Changeling Children'?
Content warning: This post contains references to child abuse & ableism. Please take care!
‘Changeling children’ feature in a series of historical myths and legends, largely dating back to pre-scientific societies. These narratives see a “normal” human child abducted by a supernatural creature such as a goblin or fairy, and replaced with one of their own kind — much to the horror and grief of their parents.
The replacement child is “characterised by unresponsiveness, resistance to physical affection, obstreperousness, inability to express emotion, and unexplained crying and physical changes”. (Leask, et al, 2005: 271). For many, this description resonates with what we now know about autism.
As a parent, realising that your child is disabled in a time where psychological research and social support were practically nonexistent must have been shocking, difficult and isolating, hence the turn to folklore for an explanation. However, this does not excuse the harrowing real-life cases of physical abuse against suspected ‘changelings’, as seen in 19th century court records (Ashliman, 1997).
The changeling child myth has always fascinated and haunted me. There is something so painfully resonant, even to this day, about the sentiment of: “you are growing up so incorrectly that you must not be human”. As a late diagnosed autistic person who took comfort in relating to robots and fairies before I found the terminology to understand myself, it hits especially hard.
The majority of real and fictional changeling child accounts focus on the grief of the parents whose child has suddenly changed. A foremost aim of my work on The Sterling Girl was to instead centre the experience of Etta, the twelve-year-old girl (allegedly) “replaced”, and her reclamation of her own humanity in a paranoid society that will do anything to deny it to her.
At the moment I am so obsessed with trying to replicate various ads and articles I see in old copies of smash hits magazine with technobabble I am having the time of my life
I will not be surprised if I end up making lyric pages and interview spreads with them next, I love these guys sm 🌟
