Opal Sparks

Otacon: Be more specific, Snake.

Snake: He is also wearing tights.

My first conversation about PCOS with my new endocrine/OBGYN was about weight management and how that could improve my fertility when I eventually wanted kids. It wasn't asked what my goals were for my health or if I wanted kids, just assumed.

I was a hormonal, depressed mess. I hated my body. My body dysmorphia was so bad that I cloistered myself away from so much. I wore hoodies and jeans in the 90°F, 80% humidity summers. This was considered fine. I was given metformin and birth control pills and told this was all that could be done. That PCOS wouldn't affect my life until I wanted to be pregnant. I wasn't asked if I wanted to be pregnant, just assumed.

I don't know how many PCOS groups I joined on my early 20s hoping to find community and commonality for body dysmorphia and symptom management, only to be bombarded with fertility treatments and tips and 'inspirational conception' anecdotes. They never asked if I was attempting to conceive, just assumed.

I commissioned enariarte (Instagram, Twitter or Vgen) to draw my OC x Canon ship for Harvest Moon: Magical Melody. We have here Opal and Louis.

Opal is Tai's granddaughter and Tim's older sister, and is responsible for making the jewelry that is commissioned at the blacksmith's shop. She wears a necklace designed after a blue feather that her father made for her mother. Sadly both of her and Tim's parents passed away, so this necklace is what she has to remember them by.

Because Louis works at the Junk Shop in Flower Bud Village, Tai is a little irked when Opal starts visiting more often to see Louis, but keeps it to himself because Louis seems respectful enough towards Opal.
