𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐞 : 𝐅𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒 ! 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐬 : accepting. 𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 : @ofshampain 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 : which of the four seasons suits my muse best, and why ?
nicky looks like a boy made of sunshine with a summer kind of soul but he is all whipping winds and internalized cold. winter lingers in his bones and nothing has quite learned to cut through it ( maybe there’s something who will, maybe someone ). he has spent so much of his life masquerading a kind of warmth that he has not felt since his parents walked into the fog and left him with their little girl to raise as his own. she is his world, he will never deny or begrudge her that. in raising her, though, he has lost pieces of himself, a chance to be young, to experience life with a safety net. all that bitterness has had nowhere to go. it rots inside.
perhaps the most straightforward, she’s spent her life trying to help people, to make them healthy, to keep them safe, to allow them to be better versions of themselves. there is sunlight in her smile and while there are cloudy days, she is a summer filled woman. she exudes warmth and brightness, all kinds of radiating love. five minutes with her and your day will turn around. the clouds have built, though, and they linger. forgive her. she is trying.
others have emotional reasons why they are best suited to a season, a desire to hide or express themselves as applicable, but ofelia claims to like autumn for the simple reasons. the clothes, the holidays, the treats — everything that comprises the aesthetics for that perfect shot on instagram. certainly her favoritism has nothing to do with the fact that her mother despised the season on principal because everything dies in autumn. there is a subtlety to the art of rebellion that ofelia has mastered and it’s summed up in this: sometimes you pretend to enjoy something just to make your mother mad. eventually that lie becomes true once you’ve told it enough.
put anyone in a flower crown long enough and they’ll look like spring — the start of a new cycle and a beauty to be admired. poppy teeters on the precipice here, she is all strawberry smiles and defrosting days but her heart flourishes well into summer and she does not know where to put herself. warmth consumes her and she radiates it year round. she is sundresses and big hats as easily as she is bikini tops and denim shorts, swan dives into swimming pools and bike rides with the family. maybe one soul can’t be two seasons but in those weeks that meld two seasons, interspersed days that lean more one way than the other, that is when she thrives.
melancholy man who sits at his desk and keeps his head down year round does not call out to one particular season. he ignores them all, even if he does not mean to. one could draw a comparison to hades, a man who does his work as needed, who slinks home and back to his bed for a few short hours every night and begins his day again to work ungodly hours. one might say that winter is his season, if you make this comparison, but in his heart lurks this desperate desire to be free of the routine he has confined himself to. he may seem like he is winter but inside summer sits heavy in his chest waiting to be unleashed.

𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐞 : 𝐅𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒 ! 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐬 : not accepting. 𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 : @shatteredhope, @pinehavenpeaches 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 : how meticulously does my muse look after their physical appearance ? do they spend a lot of time on their hair, makeup, grooming, and clothing ? is there a particular reason why they do or don’t ?
though nicky is well groomed, he does not currently have the time or resources to overanalyze the way he looks. as long as it’s clean and doesn’t have a stain, he’s probably going to wear it. he tries to keep his hair at a manageable length and he pretends to frequent the gym but he’s more likely to do yoga at home. he’s conscious about washing his face with a reliable skin care routine and not buying three — in — one soaps for his hair and body. if that means he’s going to smell like warm vanilla sugar then he’s willing to do it.
noemi showers every day but washes her hair about twice a week or three times if she’s feeling like she needs it. her hair is prone to breaking due to how frequently it’s up in a bun or a ponytail which continues the cycle of wearing it up more but she tries her best to keep it down when she can and she is not particularly concerned about her make up. as a mother of d one, it’s hard to focus on yourself when you’ve got your kids and that’s especially true when you’re also a doctor. make up is light and her clothes are more comfy and casual than designer and chic. it works for her, though, and she’s happy with it !
incredibly is the most fair word to describe how meticulously ofelia looks after herself and more so — both broadly and specifically — her image. her cost of upkeep is not incredibly expensive in pine haven but she still displays a certain kind of care that comes from being worth hundreds of millions of dollars and constantly being photographed. though she is much more relaxed now, she is always impeccably well put together even if she’s wearing yoga pants that cost more than your car payment and a cropped sweatshirt.
it was around her freshman year of high school that poppy took to designing clothes with a passion and by sophomore year she had her own sewing machine and bolts of fabric leaning against a wall in her bedroom. growing up in an age of social media and having an online presence, poppy has always been conscious of the way that she’s perceived but this mostly started after she left home and went to college.
laz has an eleven and a half month old depression beard on his face and while it’s kept up it’s definitely a warning flag to a larger issue at hand there. he keeps himself in shape and for a man in his forties, he certainly looks great when he keeps his beard maintained. he wears well pressed suits and starched shirts, and though he does have a more casual aspect to him, it doesn’t come out quite often. some days it’s hard to reconcile the teenager who would have rather died than wear a suit with the man who acts like he was born in one. maybe he’s too serious for his own good and it’s expressed in the way he dresses and carries himself.

writing letters to your mother even though she’ll never read them, praying for forgiveness when you press flowers between pages when you play god with life and death, staring at the fog from your perch on your window sill wondering what it might be like to stay for a while, the ever dawning realization that you are less than you could be but more than you were, the desire to wear masks more interesting than your own ( what would your mother say that you wish to be someone other than your own self ? )
