"So, what do you think, Tori?" I asked after I finished talking about my recent realization. "Let me think.. Well, there's this composer, whose name was a variant of Louis .. and your sixth great-grandfather lived in the early 19th century, like him, so maybe he likes his music and idolized him or something? Idk, just.. my thoughts as a musician," Tori said.
"Well, that's actually a pretty neat theory. Nice, Tori." She smiled. I suddenly remembered about my conversation with my sibling last night. "Tori, babe, you remember Claude, right?"
"Your older sibling? Yeah, I remember them. Why?"
I took a deep breath. "Well, they just directed an adaptation of our sixth great-grandfather's play, and the protagonist's name is Alois.."
"Interesting. I'll search that play up, I promise." Tori and I did the pinky promise. "Anyways, my parents probably wants me to go home already, so, sorry, and bye, darling!" She gave me one last hug, and I waved at her as she left my room.
Today, I finally realized something.
A lot of my family member's name is just a variant of the name "Louis".
It dated back from 1837, when Percival Chasterell,my fifth great-grandfather, named one of his sons Alois. Alois was born after Claus II, who was named after my sixth great-grandfather, Claus Chasterell.
And then, there's great-aunt Louisa, grandfather Alois II, great grandfather Aloysius, great-uncle Louis, cousin Lutz, aunt Mary Lou (yes, Lou is a variant of Louis), niece Louella, and of course, me, myself and I. Aloisia Chasterell.
It makes me wonder, you know? Why is there more people named after variants of Louis than people named after sixth great-grandfather Claus? He was a famous poet, playwright, and actor.. and yet there's only two people in his family named after another variant of his name: Claus II, and my sibling Claude.
I mean, Louis is a great name. It means 'famous warrior' or 'famous in battle'. But who is this Louis, or Alois, or whoever their name is, and what did they do to have more Chasterells named after them than Claus?
Sorry for being inactive, anyway here's some lovers from the regency era :>
(their clothes are probably not very historically accurate, but eh)
(Background textures are from ibis paint)
Hello :D
I might draw Alois and Norabella (here's some info about who they are, but it's mostly about Claus lol) tomorrow, and maybe write the next chapter.. also I have an idea to make a series of drawings of couples from my favourite era :3 but idk when will I start making it XD stay tuned! <3
I must say that I've never though it will ever come to this...
But looking at the current events...
Me watching "some movies" with the one and only @reallyangryhawk
Well, I can't determine if it's the blessing... or the curse...
But now I present to you...
The Pirate AU concepts! (In the nutshell cause the whole thing do be loooooong)
So well... here is Lui. He ends up being a pirate after some really unfortunate incidents regarding his job... He basically helped someone who was framed in murder (the person was a pirate hence the later connections). So Lui being threatened to loose his life (by the government may I add), joines the crew of the man he saved in the court. He sailes for a while... Then, being educated and trained with logical thinking along side with rhetoric (it's really cool cause pirates tend to be less educated beings), he gets chosen for the captain of the ship he was on, after the former captain was killed by the enemy fleet.
Some time later on the way to the next quest Lui and his crew encounters a treasure island and along side with it the treasure itself. But like with the most pirate treasures there is also a curse... And the victim of it is no other than Lui himself...
He's being trapped in the cave where the treasure was, and the only way out is thorough the underground water tunnel system. Lui jumpes in and the water gives him the effect of being able to breathe underneath it's surface... and later problems with normal breathing as gills starts to grow on his neck...
While in contact with water he's forced to transform into the shark creature, then having problems at the land. Also the group of sharks is following him but they are also friendly for him.
Lui spends about half a year at the island, slowly loosing his sanity, thinking his crew left him alone in the middle of nowhere. But also learning how to control the curse and it's powers Lui is able to get back to the civilisation... and then there it's chaos...
Also the effects of the curse basically gave Lui his nickname.
But I'll write about it next time when I'll also cover the story of Nico.
As for now, thanks for reading this monstracity, and I wish u all a very nice future time and activities. No matter how late it is at your place or what you will be doing next :3
Viewing the NBC Hannibal series as an alternate universe instead of an adaptation of the novels would probably make things better for both fandoms tbh
I already finished it.. but it looks very wrong and full of correction pen marks ;-; guess it's redraw time
So, I already made a sketch of Claus Chasterell, and I might do the lineart tomorrow.. anyways if anyone wanna ask something about my OCs/me (:P) my asks are open :3 ! (I might not answer right away because time zones and stuff, sorry)
He had enraptured me. I view our relationship as something in between friends and lovers. I do not know how he feels. I do not know whether I genuinely have let go of my feelings or if I still hold onto it. He told me about his crush. I felt a tinge of envy. I wish I was more boyish. More attractive. So that if I'll ask him out he'd say yes. I wish I had never spoken to him at all.
You guys saw nothing aha <3
