    You should make a book out of all your rejected characters… but don’t call it that cos they might get a complex!

    She does look so sad, and painful, poor sweet dear. Tho i do love the Skull on her corset, she has to admit, there may not be too many corsets sporting skulls, but those shoes, i think that would about kill anyone’s glee, hee hee, she must have to cut her nails waaaaaay short. All in all i love her, and hope to see her again & all your other rejected characters, or friends
