(this is just a random doodle cuz i was bored but ig I'd just ramble why there's two Elenas here. Yeehyyyy welcome to Ziezie's yappings 👻)
- Elena had an old job at this huge company before where everything looked super duper polished and you already know that screams "professionals" 👀... Also, Elena intentionally overworked herself (that's why she looked like that on the left lmaoo) especially that her half sister, Liana, left her after their argument that accidentally ruined their relationship as sisters. The deeper she got into her profession tho (Executive Records and Operations Coordinator), the more she realized that something was off... Like uhh, she was basically drowning in paperwork, confidential files, weird disappearances getting covered up, and people pretending not to notice things. 🥲 And since bcs she worked in records/compliance, she accidentally knew WAY too much. Tho despite that, she stayed because she needed the stability, but over time the job just made her feel empty and constantly anxious. Not to mention someone was always watching her, too. (I think I'd probably introduce that "someone" later in the future, but i think it's best to keep them a mystery for now. ✌🏻)
But then later on, her father's old homemade pizza recipes kinda became her comfort thing again 🥹 like after those long stressful nights, she'd end up cooking just to calm herself down, and eventually?? She realized that making pizza felt more real than anything she'd ever done in that company. So like after everything with the dark secrets, the person, the pressure and the fear, she finally quit or resigned and used what little peace she still had left to open her own pizzeria. 🥲🙏🏻
And for Elena, becoming an Ovenist was probably the first time she felt like she was building smth with her own hands instead of helping hide other people's messes fuhuuu 😭...
Uhhhhh.... I think that's all noww ( ;∀;) tho i think it's guaranteed that I'd yap someday again about their lore hehee ✌🏻 (THIS IS JUST THE START... 👁️) this was supposed to be like a short comic where she transitioned from her old life to living a new life being an Ovenist, but erhhh, my lazy ahh... 🥀
