I've Made Progress + Rogue Chapter 1


But first a little more about Sera/Paris...



React
I heard the song React by the Pussycat Dolls and this is such a perfect song for Seraphina/Paris in all forms because Seraphina loves Paris because he is a good stable guy but she sometimes craves some volatility.


Speaking of Pussycat Dolls,  Nicole Schrerzinger just totally gives the attitude that I wrote for my Human!Seraphina in this video. Fun fact ! Nicole does ALL the vocals and backups voices for the group. The others are just dancers. Which I'm sure is problematic but...like this outfit is going to be in AYC



Picspirations : More Hot People
This model is a good pcispirations for Human!Paris in AYC and to some extent New Aeterna. He's just very weary looking sharp dresser with sharp angles. This model was 24 when this picture was taken so just imagine him a a few years older.



This model is also pretty close but not "waifish" enough. Any  man with dark hair who looks wholly unsure of himself or has a false confidence is a perfect match for Paris in any verse !



I will always see a "less cutesy" Miranda Kerr as Sera but this model is a good version for an 20-21 year old Human!Seraphina who we will meet in flashbacks in AYC



And this model is one of my other favorite picspirations for Sera and I can see her as the 29-year old Human!Seraphina.


Elliot Sailors has always been my favorite picspiration for Sera with short hair

I also found his more recent picture of  Sailors that perfectly matches Seraphina in Rogue, because Sera would be more in her mid-30s plus she has dyed her hair. Though I picture  her with a buzz cut underneath.



So,  yes there is no shortage of blue-eyed women with cheekbones on the internet.


Celestial Hollow Tease !
You asked for it ! Here it is :

 So, like I've said Celestial Hollow is low on the list serials that need to be finished. Here is my preliminary inspys for the main characters Celine, Quinn and Luther along with the boarding house they live in. They are expys for Clara, Fierro and Emile ! I don't really have an idea for what Quinn looks like, so this is just a ...maybe ? I still picture him with albino characteristics.

Her entire life Celine Marguerite Briar hadn’t really left her comfortable hamlet of Westmount, Quebec. Her freedom added up to one year at Montreal University (Still only an hour a train ride from home) and one lousy week in Boston.


Death was inconvenient, but it was now her way out. The rest of whatever lay next was on the other side of this damn locked door.

This story is maybe written in a close third person ?

Rogue Chapter 1
So, Chapter 1 is huge. It's about 9k, which makes it roughly 18% of my serial which I'm predicting to be between 45-48K. I never think about things like this but I've got bits I need to "polish" and fill in and I've been looking at how that impacts the number counter.

Playlist 
+1+ Area - MagnusTheMagnus (one of many songs found on Apple commericals)
+2+ Wash - Bon Iver 
+3+ Home - Machine Gun Kelly, X Ambassadors and BB Rhexa (I think I stole from SHV ?)
+4+ - Breathe - RHODES

Okay, I'm going Rogue. I've been holding on to this and I'm going to see  what happens when I let it out. This is the sequel to Queen and Country. I won't get into a recap, there is a "built-in" recap. Let's return to the world New Aeterna ...
