#where's my “this war consisted of ten guys fighting in a quarry” AU

I've posted before about being face blind so it may not be much of a surprise that I don't often think about how characters look in that particular way. It probably comes across in my writing, I don't know. I think I mention gestures and expressions a lot rather than describing faces as such. Anyway, for some reason the only exception is normal dude AU Ferrus.

He's always some variant of Gerard Butler to me. No idea why. He just has sufficient Big Guy energy, I think. And Bi Guy energy

I don't really think about other characters the same way though. Not even Fulgrim. He's like Maris Crane to me in that no actual living human could possess all the traits described. If I had to pick someone it would be Jacob McCarthy who has the right capacity to look prettily murderous but with the best will in the world the Big Guy energy isn't quite there. They're all like 10ft tall and built like trucks so their normal dude equivalents need to be Big Guys too or it just doesn't work.
