#my daughter..........can't wait for yall to meet her properly

[nyehilismwriting]

hi!! im not sure if i missed it in game but can you please give full physical description of joia? i wanted to make some art and i want to get it right

uhh yep so you'll get more description in chapter two when you get to actually Meet Her For Real but she's 8-10 years old (am i being deliberately vague? do i just not know how old she is? does it change at random in my notes? do i need to do more research into childhood development? who's to say), mixed Black & white, medium-brown skin, dark brown eyes, black hair (braided at the time you meet her) a bit longer than shoulder-length. I have Attempted to make an artbreeder for her but i don't have the strength to wrestle w artbreeder's desire to make everyone into a perfectly sculpted porcelain doll with glass-cutting cheekbones. maybe someday.

edit: as a white author, I’m doing my very best to avoid anything that might seem like fetishisation of a child of colour’s pain or deliberate trauma to a Black child - I’m aware that this is sensitive territory, so I’d welcome any thoughts, concerns, or feedback.
