STOP BULLYING ME

:’(

Real Bastard Hours have commenced and Will (left) is ready to cause problems on purpose. Percy (right) is not so thrilled.

BASICS:

- full name: esther mary blanky (cus hannah’s middle name is also mary....)

- Gender: cis woman

- Sexuality: straight but like, cool 

- Pronouns: she/her

OTHERS:

- family: daughter esther, daughter hannah, husband thomas, deceased husband james? i’m sure she has parents & probably siblings also but i havent put much thought into it

- Birthplace: whitby, yorkshire, england

- Job: she’s worked in turns as a housewife, as the owner of a pub/boarding house, and as a shopkeeper

- Phobias: probably that something would happen to her daughters. esther lost both of her husbands to the sea (or at least, james died at sea and tom. went missing.) and she knows that everyone dies eventually, but the thought of something terrible happening to essie or hannah terrifies her

- Guilty pleasures: she like having her lazy days. esther’s a hard worker- she has to be to survive- and she’s worked most of her life, so when she has time to just do nothing she makes the most of it

MORALS:

- morality alignment: true neutral

- Sins: i’m not sure she would concretely fall into any of these, but..... pride, because even though it’s earned she looks at the life that she’s built around her despite all the hardship she’s face and she’s proud of it, fiercely so; and wrath, because even though ether is a pretty level-headed, sensible woman, she’s not above going on the war path for a cause she decides is worth it

- Virtues: diligence & patience

THIS OR THAT:

- Introvert/extrovert: extrovert

- Organized/disorganized: EXTREMELY organized, like to a scary degree

- Close-minded/open-minded: open-minded

- Calm/anxious: calm

- Agreeable/disagreeable: it depends. mostly agreeable, but there’s some issues where she’ll dig her heels in and refuse to budge

- Cautious/reckless: cautious

- Patient/impatient: patient

- Outspoken/reserved: reserved in public, but in her private life- especially with tom- she’ll say what she’s thinking without sugarcoating it

- Leader/follower: leader

- Empathetic/unempathetic: empathetic

- Optimistic/pessimistic: neither, really; she’s more realistic than anything, almost to the point of cynicism

- Traditional/modern: this is also another one that’s not really so clear cut. she’s a traditionalist in that she doesn’t really tend to rock the boat; she pushes boundaries by pretty much being a businesswoman in all but name (everything is, of course, under tom’s name, but she’s the one that manages things) and just her relationship with tom in general, but in other things like.... hannah and essie, for example? she wants the best for them, she wants them to be happy and safe in life, but she thinks that the best way for them to achieve that is by making good marriages, by finding husbands that could take care of them, yes, but also would see them as equals

- Hard-working/lazy: hardworking

RELATIONSHIPS:

- OTP: esther/tom

- OT3: esther/tom/francis, with both esther & francis being in love w tom and him in love w them both, but francis & esther arent in love w each other

- Brotp: esther & francis

After exactly 6 months of work, I finished my version of the Great Comet Family Tree. I’m going to draw Dave Malloy as Pierre soon enough but oh my god I need a break.
