I’ve been doing OCtober instead of inktober–basically where I draw a new OC every day of October! This was from last night: an Iranian American mom and her kids returning from the mosque, based on stuff I see when I frequent the masjid near me. More illustrative than a character-design related work, but an original character is an original character nevertheless!
Sansa sat up. “Lady,” she whispered. For a moment it was as if the direwolf was there in the room, looking at her with those golden eyes, sad and knowing. She had been dreaming, she realized. Lady was with her, and they were running together, and … and … trying to remember was like trying to catch the rain with her fingers. The dream faded, and Lady was dead again.
i’m not telling y’all to marry your cousins… i definitely don’t want to marry any of my cousins but i’m just saying it happens a lot more than you think and it’s not nearly as much of a genetic disaster as you’ve been led to believe. maybe be more sensitive about the topic and recognize that just bc its taboo in your culture doesn’t mean it is in others. esp when it’s not hurting anyone or anything 🤷🏻♀️
i hope americans realize that marriage among cousins is only considered incest in the US and like, five other countries
since i’m cheesy i’d probably name a direwolf something mythological like Hecate or Medea… tho i could probably get away with naming her sth basic in arabic and a bunch of people being like OoOOooo what does THAT mean
