Description I need to draw her more. So far she's still in the early stages of development so she seems kinda plain and I haven't figured out much of her personality yet. Maybe drawing out aspects of that weird dream I had will lead to some ideas?

I wrote down my dream (nightmare actually) and i wanna brainstorm by drawing it out but I'm afraid parts of it will be too violent to draw haha
and even if I did draw them it will probably look lame bc I can't draw gore ; v ;

sigh...

well this is based on one scene where this girl goes to some kind of parallel dimension infested by malicious spirits to retrieve this "friend" of hers (the way they met was pretty interesting -- but that's another story) and for some reason the form he took in this underworld place was that of a black cat. She was nowhere near this happy though. The place she was at was identical to the house she lived in, and its inhabitants were the malicious spirits that took the form of her family members. She knew that if she ever did something out of place, anything that would break the illusion, those spirits would be all over her and kill her, so she had to interact with them the way he would with her family as she inconspicuously looked for a way to get out. 

It was weird though because those spirits (posing as relatives) were always watching as if they were searching for an excuse to kill her. at the same time their actions seemed normal enough and even nice, but you could tell there was something off about them. It was unsettling. 

There were other scenes that creeped me out (the first one scared me so much because it was so dang violent) but i'd like to talk about them later because it's the details that were important and i blabbered enough right now. I'm actually being vague to keep this as short as possible but yeah, this story isn't exactly happy. Nevertheless I felt like drawing this girl being happy with her "cat" friend because why not.

 The story... Have you written it yet?! I want to read it! It seems so interesting and the way you write it here seems like you can explain it properly. 

This drawing kind of shows what you mean when you say she has had it rough. Even while she is smiling you can see the hesitation and her hunched shoulders show how she tries to hide something. I think.

 This is amazing! Great job!

no I haven't written it yet but thank you ; v ;
all I have relating to this story is my dream journal entry and it's not very... polished hehe

and yeah, great observation! she is a very nervous girl. in my dream, she is out of her element and with these things happening to her it seems like she can't trust anything she sees. so you're right, she is hesitant and is hiding her emotions for fear of being attacked. she is pretending to be alright c:

aww thank you!! <3

yeah she's really cute -- i have a soft spot for her -- but the poor girl has to go through so many horrors in my story. figured I should at least draw her being happy haha
