#hwtask13

mostly by member request, here is a fun new task for you guys! we've seen you guys working so hard on your pinboards for your characters, so we figured we'd make it into a task for you guys to get some credit for all your efforts! same format as most of our other tasks, but this time we're here to ask about your muses pinterest and aesthetics!

- as usual there will two aspects to this task, a written part as well as a graphic! of course we would love to see what you do for both, but feel free to put more of your focus on whichever part suits your muse!

- for the visual aspect we want to see your muses pinboards! whether that is through a simple screenshot of a section of the board or some form of graphic is entirely up to you! if you do decide to go the graphic route, there's some potential examples right here! x, x, x

- for the written aspect we’ve come up with a fun little questionnare based around the character's general vibes and aesthetics, found below. feel free to copy and paste the list directly into your post and answer it as is, or feel free to write a paragraph that covers all that info, whatever floats your boat! again, if there’s anything you have any concerns about don’t hesitate to reach out to us!

dirt covered

what flower would you connect to your character? why?

gladiolus are the flowers of gladiators, integrity, strength, and victor. there were many of things i considered for toph, like her stubbornness, and loyalty, but at the end of the day toph loves to fight, and she's passionate about winning, not because of the victor, but because fighting to her is a craft. it's about perfecting her bending. it really is just who she is

diopside is healing, balance, and earth energy, which really sums up her character journey i think.

what color do you most strongly associate with your muse?

like a fern or forest green

is there an animal you feel fits your muse’s personality best?

i'm going to say the mole. i don't have great reasoning for this beyond the show and how she learned earthbending from the badgermoles in avatar and i get more of a vibe from moles than badgers for toph

are there any choices your character makes solely because it fits their aesthetic?

quite literally never

describe your character’s aesthetic in five words or less Greek. Purple & Gold. Flowers. Statues. Megara's aesthetic is very much Greece and flowers and kissing statues. what flower would you connect to your character? why? Lily. Lilies have tons of symbolism, most commonly femininity, purity, and death. Since Megara is one of my most feminine characters and has faced death, it definitely makes me think of her. Especially since it's her favorite flower, and is what I imagine she'd look like as one. pick a crystal that you feel fits your muse best and explain the connection Kunzite. It holds love, divine femininity, and joy. "While wearing kunzite, it is thought you are better able to allow, receive and reciprocate love. Kunzite is also believed to help heal heartache [...]" Kunzite is definitely a stone that Megara could use, since she's so terrified of love and bitter from heartbreak. out of water, fire, earth, and air, which element do you think represents your character best? As a Scorpio, Megara is ruled by Water! "Water types are articulate, clever and introspective, self-contained and self-sufficient. They are penetrating, critical and scrutinizing, seeking knowledge and understanding. They like to remain hidden, enigmatic and anonymous. Fear is the emotion related to the Water element." Megara very much fits this description, and Fear of Love definitely rules over her. what color do you most strongly associate with your muse? Purple, for sure. We share the same favorite color. Not only is it the color of her dress in the movie, but purple is very much representative of Meg's personality. It's very much a color that speaks to mystery, and mysterious is how Megara likes to be. is there an animal you feel fits your muse’s personality best? Probably a cat. She will come to you if she wants, but otherwise she will avoid you, most likely. She can be affectionate and loving, but can also be sharp and quick to defend herself. are there any choices your character makes solely because it fits their aesthetic? Maybe her nails, makeup, and style, as well as her home? Her home very much fits her Greek aesthetic, while her overall style shows her love of purple and flowing/sexy appearance. pick one quote that you think of when you think of your character and share it with us Either her quote "If there's a prize for rotten judgement, I guess I've already won that," since she feels a rotten judge of character and has had her heart broken so badly, or the quote "I'm not scared to jump, I'm not scared to fall. If there was nowhere to land I wouldn't be scared at all," from the song Falling by Florence and the Machine, since it's very much about the fear of getting hurt from falling in love. It also sort of speaks to her fear of heights - not so much falling from them, but actually hitting the ground. list off the top three kinds of imagery that come to mind when you think of your muse Greek statues and pillars, flowers, and purple dresses. describe your muse using only ao3 tags

unhinged hipster english teacher

what flower would you connect to your character? why?

scorpion grasses, otherwise known as forget-me-nots for both the color/aesthetic fitting her as well as the plot related reasons that go with the name of the flower.

pick a crystal that you feel fits your muse best and explain the connection

let's go with red aventurine for creativity, confidence, and vitality. the vitality bit is a little ironic but she's kinda both dead and also immortal at this point, so i'm going to say it still fits.

out of water, fire, earth, and air, which element do you think represents your character best?

i am struggling to decide here but i think i'm going to go with fire. she's relatively confident and passionate, probably too much so. she gets sucked into her own stuff and winds up self destructive as a result. she's the type of person to burn herself up in the end of it all.

what color do you most strongly associate with your muse?

it's gonna be blue. clara always reminds me of a blue, though a lighter blue than what you get on like the tardis. that or maybe like a chestnut brown. i'll be honest for some reason this is the question tripping me up for her.

is there an animal you feel fits your muse’s personality best?

should i go for another plot based pick and say raven? they are smart and clever but also have a relation to death and that all feels right for clara.

are there any choices your character makes solely because it fits their aesthetic?

yes but she isn't happy about it. she desperately wants to be naturally cool, and what's funny is i think she is. i think clara oswald of her own natural personality is in fact naturally cool, but she's also such a control freak that it's impossible for her not to think about doing things simply for the look.
