the trouble with birds ~

[lookingland]

today is morse's birthday (how geeky is that, i actually am cognizant of my character's birthdays ~ oy) ~

at any rate, i thought it only fair that i should make a paper doll of him too. it came out okay ~ not sure yet if i'm happy with the face, but meanwhile i am having a hard time picking which bird to put in his hand. the base doll needs a bird and then the cassock needs a bird. i was going to draw a cardinal instead of a dove, but got supremely lazy.

at any rate, i mocked up the variations to see which oughta go where and i still can't decide. and yes, i know he's got no shoes on ~ i'll deal with that later ~ ha!

stop being lazy and get your stuff online (stern look) ~ did it work?

thank you for your comments on the story ~ it has a long way to go in process, but it's started.

as to your question about the exorcisms, they're drawn on the Roman Rite, but there are fantasy elements incorporated (obviously you don't extract demons by stabbing people ~ in fact, i have been strongly considering whether this is irresponsible writing on my part, but i think i can word it in a way that it will work) ~

excorcisms are long, complicated processes and nothing like you see in the movies. i would like to include more of the prayer aspect of the rite, but finding balance is tough at the moment.

the thing about salt is supposedly true.

most of this comes from, again, the Roman rite and from the Vatican exorcist (goodness, whose name escapes me) ~

but it's largely fantasy, unfortunately.

long-winded enough answer? hahahahaha ~

don't mind me! ^___^
