How the hell did she come to exist?

Echo Lee isn't pretty. She doesn't need to be and I don't want her to be pretty. She's cute because she just is but that's the extent I don't want Echo Lee to be attractive when I draw her or pretty I wanna draw her bloody and angry and shocked and happy and yet I never wanna see her pretty because Echo Lee is not pretty in the traditional sense as she's supposed to be bloody and wiping it away and painting it in streaks and she's supposed to be angry, by the gods, Echo Lee is supposed to be angry and it gets my heart pumping and racing because Echo Lee is angry and she's messy and she is everything women don't often get to be.

Echo Lee is not good with children and she doesn't want them and Echo Lee has no love interest and she doesn't follow any social norms and Echo Lee fights for herself and because she loves to fight and win but she's not competitive she just likes to feel alive and so she isn't fighting for a child or man or get something or return to something her motivation is that she just loves to feel free and powerful as much as she fears her power and she doesn't need a person or future to be happy because she doesn't plan for the future she just lives.

Echo Lee doesn't need to be attractive, she doesn't need to be anything, she's so alive and I hate that so much because she's not a tangible person but she's everything. She's everything good. Because she gets angry and she gets into arguments and she is messy and she can be bloody and scream and cry an she doesn't need a reason or to quiet down she can feel so honestly and it makes my heart hurt because yes, by the gods, yes be emotional and angry and feel.

UUUUUUGH!!!!! ECHO LEEEEE!!!! I hate her so bad because why did I have to make her why couldn't someone successful have made her so I could have her merch and dolls and blankets and stands and handles and bags and anything that was her in my possession and why did I have to make her so I know everything about her and love her to death and yet nobody else knows or understands and why did I have to make her because it doesn't feel like I made her because she is PERFECT and that makes no sense because anything I make is cursed and bad and tainted and flawed but not her. How could I have made something perfect? As perfect as her?

Doing something a bit different, since I saw this beautiful Oc and I needed to draw her. Her name is Echo Lee and she has tons of trauma just like a good Oc does!

Echo Lee is from @arandomao3user :D

I changed her jacket and the dress the tiny bit bc I didn't want the jacket to cover all the back, I hope it isn't that big of a change. I also saw that a few drawings she had like earrings like roses and they seemed too cute to miss.

And... I notice her having that pointed thing... But I don't know what it is- I just noticed it was kind of a weapon... Or it was used as one at some point.

(down below are sketches of Echo I made before doing this drawing :D) + (the reference)

I'm fine TuT

Won't think about how Echo's twin brother, Eric, sacrificed everything, anything for her for years just so she could have everything she ever wanted and yet it wasn't enough to keep her around like everyone else, but she's not everyone else and because she's a girl she'll be hated for all the things a man can do without trouble. Echo Lee will be a "manic haha" girl and get thrown in the black and white categories that Jinx and Harley Quinn are in because when women have mental health issues it's ATTRACTIVE and never seen for the issues they are because if it's a man then they can be a danger to others and themselves! But it has to be fine because Echo Lee is a fictional character and "it's not that deep" until it's about a man, because it's always gotta he about men and Echo is the embodiment of all the female rage I had at the age of ten and growing up and she's what I wish I was.

Echo Lee who is angry, angry like a man, angry with blood and dirt caked into her knees and face and with knots in her hair and she's not pretty. Echo will never be called pretty in the way of looks, no, she's called pretty in a way a fire is, not a controlled one but one that's blazing out of control! Echo feels sorrow and remorse and care and is kind but she is NOT nurturing, she's terrible with kids, she's aeoace and has no longing for romance or sex and she prioritizes her friendships with both men and women and she's gentle in the roughest way because she's immortal and pain for her is brief so she never learn gentle but she learnt kindness.

Echo Lee who gets to run free and wild and wear what she wants and be so damn free in a way no girl gets to be and she's selfish just enough and naïve in the way that makes you wonder if naivety is a flaw or if it's humanity's flaw that they take advantage of the trust she gives. Echo Lee who wouldn't hesitate to jump, who's a leader but doesn't know she's a leader till much later when she realizes she could say "swim" and her brother, her friends, they'd dive right in with no fear of drowning because she's Echo!
