Everybody talking about how Cecil is peak Sexy Tumblr Man bc he's Skinny White Guy in a Suit
But nobody talking about how Cecil was also the catalyst for anti-Skinny White Guy in a Suit!
By the time WTNV and Cecil rolled around in 2014 people were sick of skinny white guys in suits!!! They wanted something different! and it sparked a lot of talk around the default white depictions of characters who didn't have canon designs.
There's this image by zenamiarts that depicts a lot of the popular human Cecil designs that started popping up as a result. You started seeing Cecil with long braided hair!! Cecil with a walking stick and chronic pain! There was Cecil who was a just giant floating eyeball. Cecil who could change his entire appearance at a whim. A very popular ask blog where Cecil was a Silkie Chicken. (Newer more modern designs also showcase the eccentric fashion Cecil is now known to wear.)
i mean Fuck. Cecil Palmer was the first male character I saw drawn in a skirt!! he was the first character I saw drawn as gender nonconforming and he got treated and drawn like it was a normal thing and i will never forget that.
was it the perfect depiction of diversity? nah. & it sadly seems like a lot of the surviving artwork of Cecil from 2013-2016 is 'Skinny White Guy in a Suit'. (the 2018 tumblr exodus might have something to do with that :( )
But!!! Cecil really did open the door for future audio drama character designs. (looking at u mr. jonathan the magnus archives)
Cecil is mr tumblr sexyman and always will be thank u

It’s the way that Lucy’s public persona and vibe is more reserved subtle smiles, and Lockwood’s is big charming grins, so while Lucy’s big grins are important and meaningful, for Lockwood it’s the opposite, his small subtle smiles hold even more meaning than his grins.
Like Lucy masks her emotions by toning them down and keeping them in (which makes sense given her home life) so when she’s really experiencing happiness and joy she full on grins because she just physically can’t contain it. But then Lockwood masks his emotions by performing, so when he holds back a smile it’s because it’s real and precious and he’s enjoying the moment just for himself and no one else and a small smile is just as, if not, more meaningful than a big grin from him.
And I think that’s so beautiful.
