Headcanons for GOM for which style both hair and clothes would they prefer on their s/o? Thank you!
There wasn’t much I could think of for this so it’s a bit short. Hope you enjoy xx
Headcanons: GOM and the style they prefer on their s/o
Kuroko
He doesn’t like drawing too much attention to himself so I feel like he’d tend to go for someone that’s a soft boi™️ like him
He’d probably like it if you wore more pastel colours because he just finds those colours calm and pleasing
You know, that whole spring aesthetic— flower crowns and whatnot
He doesn’t really care too much about hair, considering his is a mess half the time
But he probably likes longer hair on his s/o because he’s jealous of how much easier it is to manage
Like, you just tie it up and it’s solved??
So he pretty much lives his long-haired dreams vicariously through you
Kise
Listen, if you’re not already fashionable, Kise will make you fashionable
He loves to take you on shopping dates where the two of you just try on a bunch of clothes you pick out for each other
Obviously, he loves it when you wear the clothes he buys for you
And the two of you are totally that couple that coordinates their outfits
Kise tends to lean into the brighter coloured clothes because, and I quote: “all black outfits might always look cute, but where’s the challenge in that?”
You probably wouldn’t care too much about styling your hair because you couldn’t be less bothered
However, Kise would definitely insist on you letting him do your hair
While how he styles it is dependant on your outfit, his go-to is Dutch braids into pigtails because he thinks you look absolutely adorable in them
Aomine
If you were to ask him what clothes he preferred on you his answer would probably be something along the lines of “Nothing at all,” with that stupid smirk of his
For the most part, he didn’t really care about what you wore
However, if you were to wear anything that was rather revealing, he literally wouldn’t take his eyes off of you
But as much as he’d gawk at how hot you’d look in those clothes, he had a soft spot for the way you looked in his clothes
Especially when you wore his hoodies with shorts underneath
Literally makes him melt every time
So whenever you raided his closet, he didn’t do much to stop you
You were pretty much always wearing his clothes to the point where your friends as well as his ones found it so strange in the rare times you wore your own clothes
In terms of hairstyles, he tends to like shorter hair— about shoulder length
There’s not too much explanation behind it though
He just doesn’t like getting tangled up in longer hair when things get heated up
Midorima
He definitely doesn’t pay too much attention to looks to be honest
As long as it fits well and is functional, it’s good to him
He really found the more muted colours more pleasing though
It amplified the calmness of your personality that he appreciated
He liked it when your outfit would coordinate with his because he’s all about that aesthetic
Oh he really loves seeing you in sweaters for some reason
He just found it cute how your sleeve would cover your palms and give you those adorable sweater paws
He also liked it when your hair was out of your face because it really brightened up your look
Also he just liked to admire your face in its entirety because he just found you beautiful
Murasakibara
He really doesn’t care about clothing trust me
He’ll find you cute no matter what
You’ll literally be in your pyjamas and he’d be like “Y/N-chin you look really cute.”
So you didn’t have to pay too much attention to your looks around him
Just generally, he’d be more drawn to an s/o with a laid-back and comfy style
If you look comfortable, he’s more than happy
So you’d often find yourself wearing sweatshirts, shorts and whatever you felt the most comfortable in
He also really likes curly hair
He just finds it so fun to play with
He’ll literally spend hours cuddled up with you, meddling with your hair and nothing else
Akashi
As we all know, he likes an s/o that’s refined
He likes it when his s/o knows how to dress appropriately for different occasions
He generally prefers a more sophisticated colour palette on you
Dark reds, browns, and sometimes a nice white never fails to draw his attention
He secretly likes the winter time because he can lend you his coat when you feel cold
He’s instructed you many times to carry a coat or jacket but you never did
But it’s okay because he really liked the way his coat would wrap around you
In a more casual setting, he really enjoyed it when you let your hair down because he just admired how it gracefully fell over your shoulders
You usually have your hair up at other times though and he found that very refreshing too because he’d then be able to get a nice view of your eyes which he swears he could look into for hours on end

em: there it is
obsetress: it was inevitable
em: so caught up in the joy of jamies dumb farmer tans i forgot abt her gnarly scar she keeps under wraps
em: baby
em: the most baby
obsetress: baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
em: jamie decides the only way to claim the stupid t-shirt as hers is to cut off the sleeves
em: it’s abt the ritual of the thing
obsetress: she shows up at the gym wearing it and
obsetress: that's viola's "oh no she's hot" moment
em: YEAH BABY
obsetress: literally just like
obsetress: world stops
obsetress: viola stares
em: jamie finally gets to do an exercise that shows off her sinewy manual labor grip forearms
em: viola’s probably just as horrified to find jamie hot as every time jamies like oh no
em: violas hot
em: and once again jamie CANNOT know she’s hot bc she will be insufferable
em: she will be the Worst
obsetress: viola's tugging rebecca aside "why didn't you tell me jamie was hot" "what?" viola waves a hand and rebecca just furrows her brow a little and is like "that's just... what she looks like, vi"
obsetress: viola corners dani next "why didn't you tell me jamie was hot" "i did" "oh. right" viola pauses, then "why didn't you make sure i was listening?" dani just gives her a look and walks away
obsetress: dflksdjfldaj god the way jamie and viola are. the same
obsetress: kind of incredibly, in the same ways dani and rebecca are the same
em: “hey baby, did viola seem different today? seemed off”
em: jamies like. is she mad at me. did i break another social taboo.
em: rebecca ‘jamie looks like jamie’ jessel vs dani ‘my gf is so hot i can’t stand it’ clayton
obsetress: "i tell you how hot she is at least three times a week, vi"
em: danis tryna goad her into making the damn shirt a crop top
em: jamies like yeah but isn’t that a step too far. i feel like i am destroying this shirt too much
em: she does it anyway
em: so jamies workout clothes are danis endless grey baggy school t-shirts and this one ugly souvenir shirt that like
em: psychological warfare and she doesn’t even know it
obsetress: i would........ like to see it
obsetress: also crop top jamie is one of my favorite jamies
obsetress: she is severely underrated
em: crop top jamie is
obsetress: and we do not talk about her enough
em: jamie wear More crop tops
obsetress: viola and rebecca in bed, in matching facemasks, after going to the gym post-epiphany that Jamie Is Hot
obsetress: viola: are dani and jamie hotter than us?
rebecca: what?
obsetress: and like
obsetress: viola is NOT insecure
obsetress: she is constantly confident that she's the most attractive woman in the room at any given moment, but
obsetress: she's just so staggered by this realization
em: some neutral third party (ms grose and mr sharma probably) are like well. u guys definitely have a little more of a scary thing going on
em: i’m imagining rebecca and viola at brunch w hannah and owen v seriously discussing this
em: viola brings it up and rebecca GROANS but then she gets invested in the convo
obsetress: GOD yeah
obsetress: she's leaning forward and gesturing with her fork "when you say 'scary'..........."
em: owens like scary is a compliment
em: hannah grose sips her tea knowingly
obsetress: rebecca just narrows her eyes at hannah grose and hannah raises her eyebrows and shrugs
em: after a week or so viola bursts into a room w stupid big sunglasses and a tray of take out coffees and she’s like Don’t You Worry Jamie I Have Concluded You’re Hot But I’m Not Threatened By It
em: jamies like sorry WHAT
em: you’ve been thinking about WHAT
em: viola leaves without ever following it up
obsetress: dani is entirely unfazed
obsetress: doesn't even blink
em: danis like neat she remembered the oat milk
em: everyone in this au is insane
obsetress: any lesbian in 2021 is insane
obsetress: par for the course
em: was gonna protest but
em: Yeah
obsetress: this lesbian meme account i follow on insta is doing “stop asking who’s the top and who’s the bottom. start asking...” posts
obsetress: and one of them is “start asking who’s baby and who’s fuck around and find out” and it just makes me chuckle
obsetress: jamie taylor baby
obsetress: viola lloyd also baby
em: dani is baby passing and jamie is fuck around faking
obsetress: oh my god that’s why that’s why i think we cracked it
obsetress: dani (fuck around) dated jamie (baby) and vi (baby)
obsetress: rebecca (fuck around) dated jamie (baby) and vi (baby)
obsetress: the reason they could never cross further even tho per the transitive property dani (so similar to vi) should be able to date beccs and jamie (so similar to beccs) should be able to date vi is because
obsetress: you can’t have two babies and two fuck arounds in a relationship together
em: oh of course. i see. i see
em: however in the rare rare crack ship of the ‘jamie viola hatefuck’ a similar phenomenon to ‘social anxiety mum friend ordering food’ instinct takes over and someone fucks around and finds out
em: this is just my unhinged jamie viola hatefuck bulkshit which is. it’s ironic ok it’s ironic it’s ironic it’s
em: ok one last thought bc i know it’s super late for u but
obsetress: omg i also have a last thought let’s trade
em: what if mikey is about isabels age n jamie ends up looking after him for one reason or another for a bit
em: and viola absolutely Dotes on him
obsetress: omg
obsetress: that’s what does it. jamie seeing viola w mikey
em: grumble grumble i guess she’s not that bad
em: except then she’s like god what if mikey likes her MORE than me
obsetress: “dani what if mikey gets one of those weird first crushes on vi”
obsetress: dani doesn’t even look up from the laundry “who hasn’t had a crush on vi”
obsetress: jamie’s like “mE” and dani just gives her the most withering look
em: danis like It’s Par For The Course Jamie
em: danis a teacher she’s like it happens don’t sweat it
em: anyway
em: what was. what was ur last little thought
obsetress: i was just thinking more about viola also baby and how also she’s been so privileged her whole life that sometimes there are just some things she can’t do for herself because she just doesn’t know how
obsetress: like she’s never had to learn
em: rebecca gets um
em: freeze dried coffee
em: nescafé
obsetress: but like
obsetress: rebecca genuinely loves taking care of vi for whatever reason (it’s because she loves her) when she really needs it but
obsetress: rebecca also takes no shit and is like “i’m not making the nescafé for you. you’re 36 years old, vi, you need to learn to do it for yourself”
obsetress: and she’ll stand there and watch her do it and then she makes vi do it at least three more times for posterity
obsetress: “i’ll make a plebeian of you yet, viola lloyd”
obsetress: (god only the two of them would think a line like that is funny)

And I’m back with an update! :D Currently I’m in a small town in the middle of a mountains… Basically, the middle of nowhere in which you need to drive through three (If there isn’t traffic) hours of mountains to get to. But! I have Wi-Fi, so here I am, typing an update for you from the middle of nowhere :D
As always, this wasn’t proof-read, I didn’t have enough time, sorry :( so please contact me if any mistakes were found! :D Enjoy
Kitty dropped into her balcony seconds before her transformation dropped. She leaped off her bunk-bed-thingy into the middle of her bedroom, where the unfinished dress stood calmly. 
“Help yourself to the macarons.” Marinette told Plagg distractedly. “I need to finish the dress.” 
“Hey.” 
Marinette hummed, looking up to see Robin casually leaning against one of the pillars. She screeched, backtracking in surprise until her brain fully registered who it was. “Um, hey?” 
Robin blushed. “I know I shouldn’t be in your room unannounced but… I saw that you needed help.” He gestured to her dress. “And I thought if you needed a pair of extra hands, I could…?” 
Marinette bit her lip. “I suppose.” She smiled. “Alright, come here and I’ll run you through quickly.” She glanced at the clock, and quickly checked to make sure that Plagg was safely hidden in a little crevasse behind numerous fabrics and organisation shelves on her desk. “We have… Ten minutes until my friends get here. I need to have my dress done by then.” 
She quickly ran him through the process of sewing each pearl, and to no surprise, Robin was an attentive learner and was basically, the definition of delicate. His first pearl had been a little shaky, but the one after his first was near- If not- Perfect. He had even distributed the sparkles around the pearls proportionally- And that was something that took loads of practice. It had taken her weeks to perfect that skill, and he got the whole thing perfect after watching her just once. 
“There we go.” Marinette smiled, snapping off the thread as the last pearl went in securely. With the two of them working, fuelled by fiery determination- They’d finished the dress in no time. 
“I’ll be there.” He said, breaking the satisfying silence between the two of them. She looked up in surprise, the sheer happiness in her bluebell eyes making him blush excessively. “I’ll go there in my civilian identity, so you won’t see me- But I’ll be there.” He told her, smiling shyly. “Good luck.” 
Marinette coughed, her cheeks blossoming in scarlet, secretly really pleased that he had bothered to find out and to tell her. “Could I.. Get a good luck kiss?” 
He pulled her close, dipping her by the waist as he pressed a soft kiss to her lips, the little squeal escaping her throat almost making him growl possessively.
“Good luck, angel.” Robin whispered, shooting his grappling hook out before leaping from the balcony. 
Marinette watched, dazed as he left, her fingers rising to touch where he’d kissed her. 
“Marinette! I’m ready to rock that runway!” Chloe announced her arrival, slipping out of the trapdoor, snapping Marinette out of her daze. 
“R-Right.” The bluenette stuttered. “Right. The runway.” 
That was by far, Damian’s second kiss, and he couldn’t have been anymore flustered. It did bother him- He wanted her to love his civilian identity, too, so maybe one day he’d tell her- But as of then… He touched his lips, still slightly tainted with Marinette’s chapstick, and blushed. 
“Alright.” He dropped into a back alley, where he had stashed his extra clothes- He had, actually, stashed a lot of of his clothes everywhere in case he ever needed a quick change from being Robin. “I have a fashion show to attend.” 
“Perfect.” Marinette breathed as Chloe twirled once with her white-blue-and-yellow dress. The upper half of the dress was tailored to be skin-tight for Chloe while the lower half opened in a upside down tulip-shaped gown. White lined each fold of the gown, followed by a blue backdrop. The cute, rounded collar of the dress shone a pastel yellow, with the ends of the dress lined in yellow as well. 
“Now put this on.” Marinette ushered, handing Chloe another hanger, but this one had a white blazer on it. Yellow and black stripes alike to a bumblebee’s twirled along the white of the blazer, giving the whole piece a very striking feel. 
“Utterly gorgeous.” Chloe breathed, twirling around before flipping her hair. “Aren’t I gorgeous?” 
Marinette giggled. “Yes, yes you are.” The bluenette’s eyes twinkled. “Do you know what you’re missing?” 
The bluenette reached into Chloe’s purse, where Pollen was resting quietly. The bee brooch shone in the evening sun, and Marinette slipped in properly over Chloe’s silvery, blonde hair. “There.” She smiled. “You deserve it, Chloe.” 
The blonde’s lip trembled. She turned away, embarrassed. “I-I’m not crying, Dupain-Cheng.” 
Marinette pulled the blonde in for a hug, her arms looping around the dress to squeeze Chloe in for a hug that conveyed a thousand messages. 
Thank you. 
“Um… Hey.” Damian cleared his throat, an amused smile on his lips as the two girls turned to glare at him in unison. 
“We were having a moment!” Chloe snapped. “Be quiet. Get out!” 
Marinette sighed, letting go of Chloe. “Well, Damian, let’s get you changed, too.” She retrieved two articles of clothing from off the hanger, handing him a black button-up shirt, a pair of dark green jeans, and finally, a black-green vest to go on top of all of it. 
Damian took the hangers from Marinette, turning to go change. The bluenette stared as he left, the small pinch of green sparkles between his fingertips only adding more to her growing suspicion. 
“It’s the right size?” Marinette asked as she told Damian to move around and check if the blazer was just right for him. 
“Yes.” He nodded, a little worried. When he took to hanger from her, he’d used the hand with the sparkles on them- He didn’t have time to wash them off, and he only noticed when he went to change in the toilet. 
Shuffling over to her table, Marinette came back with a brush and and a bottle of hair spray. “Don’t move.” She instructed as she stood on her tip-toes, reaching up to tame his messy black bangs. 
Damian chuckled, kneeling down so she didn’t have to strain herself to reach up. The bluenette huffed, brushing his hair with more strength, making him wince in the process. 
“Okay, okay, I’m sorry.” Damian scowled. “Easy, an- Marinette.” He corrected. 
Chloe rolled her eyes at the two. “Hurry up! The show must go on, and it can’t go on without the main characters, okay?” 
Bruce sat in the front row of the fashion show, his finger lingering over Damian’s number. Before he could decide on whether to call is son, however,  the lights flicked on. 
Meanwhile, in the backstage, the designer was pepping up her models as she handed the both of them black masks that would help conceal their identities (Paris is blind, just a mask will make you unrecognisable). “You’ve got this!” Marinette grinned. “Fighting!” 
Chloe nodded confidently, tying the mask around her head, avoiding her hair, while Damian only smiled warmly to reassure the bluenette. “We’ll be fine.” He told her, putting on his own mask, knowing she was only trying to calm her own nerves. He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to her palm. 
Marinette made a purring noise in her throat softly before she caught herself. She cleared her throat, her own mask in hand. “Um, good luck?” 
“Let’s give it up for the MDC line!” The MC announced, and the two took that as their cue. 
“Presenting to you- Bumblebee in the Sky.” 
Chloe stepped out first, the white, blue and yellow dress catching the eyes of many in the crowd due to it’s striking palette. The white blazer flapped fiercely in the wind that was supplied by the large fans towards the side, and the blonde strutted on the walkway, flipping her hair, striking a pose on the end of the walkway. Cameras flashed at the unique design of the bumblebee stripes on the white blazer, and the audience clapped. Chloe turned back towards the entrance, and Damian was ushered out. 
“Nightingales in the Dark.” 
He was a little uncomfortable with the lights and cameras- But he was a Wayne. He was used to it. 
The audience murmured about the unique, shiny fabric that was the dark green base for the suit. The black button shirt, under the sight of the spotlights, revealed spiralling, silver designs that detailed of nightingales and ivies. It was only when the light shone down on it, it would reflect and glow against the dark fabric. 
Damian glowered fiercely at the cameras as he stood on the end of the walkway, catching sight of Marinette stuffing Chloe into the next design out of the corner of his eye. He had to take his time- So that Chloe had enough time to change. Changing his pose, Damian saw an ‘ok’ sign from Marinette, and headed back inside as Chloe emerged with her next ensemble. 
“May I present to you- Majesty.” 
The next dress was the pastel yellow masterpiece that was clearly inspired by Queen Bee. Chloe’s blonde hair danced in the wind gracefully, the brooch on her hair sparkling bright and golden.
The crowd awed at the pastel dress- Golden detailing lined the dress the same way they lined Damian’s shirt- They would only show under the light. Golden threads told of numerous, graceful bees that were waltzing in the wind, and colourful threads painted flowers and grasses along the edge of the dress, bringing out colours of red, dark blue, emerald and ivory white. 
Chloe posed more than multiple times for the camera, each camera fighting for cover-page photos of the gorgeous dress. 
Meanwhile, Damian was busy putting on his next set- The grey t-shirt with his Robin jacket. When he emerged from the changing room, Marinette had a knowing smile on her lips. 
“Ready?” She asked softly. He nodded, smiling in reply. 
“Ready.” 
When Bruce first saw Damian onstage, it was definitely not what he had been expecting. He had never thought Damian would be modelling- That said quite a lot about the girl, if she was able to convince Damian to model. 
He had taken more than one photo and maybe shed more than one (1) tear. 
After the spectacular piece that was Majesty, Bruce had been throughly awed by the aspiring designer. 
“Now, let’s give a round of applause for a piece that was inspired by one of Gotham’s superheroes- Robin!” 
Damian stepped into the light, feeling more than comfortable in the jacket that was made for him.
The jacket gleamed in Robin’s primary colors- Black, red, green and yellow. The R logo sat above his heart, the silver zip gleaming under the brightness of the spotlights. The hoodie had been pulled up, revealing white fur sewed into the lining of the hoodie, similar to how the actual Robin’s uniform was like. The grey t-shirt he wore under the jacket was fluid and soft, the black jeans perfect for active movement.
The click of cameras went of in what seemed like the distance as Damian sensed Marinette’s eyes on him, seemingly full of pride. 
He wondered if she was thinking about what Robin would think if he were in the crowd? 
“That was a success!” Marinette beamed. “Even though there were only four ensembles, it was really good!” 
Chloe and Damian felt their hearts warm at the sight of the bluenette jumping around in excitement. 
“Now, all that’s left is the closing act.” Marinette smiled. “I prepared two more ensembles for you two, we’re probably going to need to go out and take more pictures.” She shrugged.
Chloe groaned. “More?” 
A giggle escaped the bluenette’s lips. “Once we’re done, I’ll treat you both to coffee and some cake, okay?”
The cameras went wild as the two models finally walked out in the last piece they had to present. 
Damian wore a Lordbug-inspired piece. A white button-up shirt peaked out from below his black and red sweater, paired with a pair of black-and-white checkerboard loose slacks. A grey jacket was tied around his waist, and to top it off, a black cap with ‘Lordbug’ embroided on the front sat on his dark bangs. 
Chloe wore a Kitty-inspired outfit. A large, black sweater with the words ‘Meow’ stitched in bold white in the middle caught the hearts of many. Chloe had pulled up the hoodie of the sweater, revealing cat ears sewn on the hoodie itself. A dark blue, plaited skirt revealed a pair of long socks with the pattern of cat’s whiskers on Chloe’s legs, finished by a pair of green-black boots. 
The crowd lost it. The headlines the next day would read ‘Paris’s Superheroes Inspired MDC’s First Line’. 
“Now, let’s introduce MDC herself- Wearing her own original!” The audience sat on the edge of their seats, anticipating the great designer who had created all of the wonderful masterpieces that they just saw. 
The two models stood on both sides of the walkway, matching, proud smiles on their faces as the shy bluenette pushed past the curtain that blocked the view of the backstage. 
She was truly, the star of the show- Literally. 
Black netting- Tinged with silver threads- Formed the collar, dipping into a dark, velvety, black fabric. A heart neckline, perfectly shaped, showed just enough of Marinette’s collarbone. The top half of the dress hugged Marinette’s usually concealed curves while the bottom half blossomed into a floor-length ballgown. The folds in the ballgown were evenly distributed, the pearls among the fabric like shining stars in the sky. The sprinkled, emerald sparkles only emphasised on the concept of making the pearls alike to stars. 
Marinette blushed, brushing a strand of her dark blue hair behind her ear. 
“Let’s give a round of applause for MDC!” 
The hall exploded into thunderous applause, marvelling at the young designer standing on the stage. “Tell me, how do you feel?”
Marinette cleared her throat, her black mask only framing her bluebell eyes flawlessly. “Well, actually, I’m a little overwhelmed.” She laughed, immediately capturing the hearts of the Parisians on sight. Bruce’s heart warmed, like I’m going to adopt that kid. 
“It’s my first time publicly letting my works go out, so I was quite nervous.” MDC admitted. “But I’m really, really happy with how it turned out, and I have to thank my wonderful models for that.” 
The MC nodded approvingly. “Well, MDC, do you plan to start your own brand, seeing as how popular it’s going to be?” 
MDC nodded. “I’ve always wanted to start my own brand. Starting tomorrow, the MDC website will be open for commissions.” She smiled. 
The crowd chattered excitedly at the announcement, and Bruce nodded approvingly. The girl was confident, independent, and polite. Truly, this girl that Damian had found one-of-a-kind.  
“Will you be planning on revealing your identity one day?” The MC asked, holding the mic to Marinette’s lips. 
MDC hummed, contemplating on her answer. “Perhaps one day I will,” She said truthfully. “But as of currently, I’d rather keep it under wraps until I’m old enough to reveal it.” 
The crowd gasped in surprise. 
“Yes, I’m underage.” MDC revealed, “I’m still in school, and I’m still studying. Maybe after I graduate, I’ll announce my identity.” She bowed. “Thank you for coming to my fashion show today, everyone.” She smiled softly. “It makes me really happy. Thank you once again.” 
Cameras scrambled for pictures. 
“MDC, can we get a picture of you and your models, please?” They implored. 
Alya scrambled against the flow of the adults, jumping up and down excitedly. “MDC, can I get a picture with you, please?” She grinned. “I’m the Kittyblogger!” 
If it was six months ago, Marinette would’ve gladly gave Alya a photo, but now was different. 
“I’ve brought my own camera person.” She told the crowd politely. 
Aurore pushed her way through the crowd, an honoured smile on her lips. “MDC, can you and your models face my camera, please?” 
Chloe and Damian glanced at Marinette for confirmation, and she nodded. The three stood together, smiling as Aurore took pictures of them, the other cameras scrambling to stand behind Aurore to get photos as well. Once the girl was done, Marinette gestured for the two to go backstage. 
“Thank you so much, everyone.” She bowed politely, leaving to go backstage with the rest. 
Once backstage, they found Aurore waiting. 
“You ready for the interview?” She asked, a smile on her face. “Once again, I must thank you, MDC. It’s an honour.” 
Marinette brushed it off. “I need to thank you. Right, um, I think I’m ready.” 
Aurore begin recording, and gave Marinette the ‘ok’ sign. 
“Hello, everyone. My name is MDC, and I’m a designer.” She smiled. 
“MDC, what are your designs primarily inspired by?” Aurore asked from behind her camera. 
MDC tilted her head, making a thinking face. “Well, they’re mostly inspired by people around me. As you saw, some of the ensembles were inspired by the superheroes that have been protecting our city.” 
Aurore nodded, giving Marinette a thumbs up. “Just now, on stage, you announced that you would be setting up a website and that you would be accepting commissions. How much, on average, will the commissions be?” 
“That depends.” Marinette paused. “As you saw, the fabric I use for the ensembles are not ordinary fabrics- In fact, some of them I made myself. The embroidery on the fabrics take quite some time as well. I only use the best materials for my works, so it’ll depend on what materials I used and how much those were.” She gave an apologetic look. 
Aurore nodded in understanding. “I understand. Your art is a rather detailed art, after all, it takes up a lot of effort. How much time do you use to make one ensemble?” 
“That depends. Before, I used to be really busy as my ex-friends used to commission things out of me without paying, so my schedule was really packed up. However, I am pleased to announce that my schedule has been cleared up, so it should take an average of one week to two weeks for a commission, however, if it takes a lot of hand-work, it might stretch up maximum to two months.” 
Aurore nodded. “Thank you so much for interview, MDC. I wish you luck in your line of work, and I look forward in seeing more of your designs!” 
The camera clicked off, and Aurore squealed. “I cannot thank you enough, Mari!” 
Marinette sighed in relief, taking off her mask. “I’ll have to thank you, you’re helping me advertise.” 
Aurore paused, digesting the thought. “I suppose so, but you’re giving me my chance to be a famous blogger!” Aurore sighed dreamily. “I promise I’ll take this seriously.” 
“I’m sure you will,” Marinette groaned tiredly. “Right, who wants coffee and cake?” 
Bruce sat on his seat, not moving, still waiting for the three to come out from behind the curtains. He wanted to meet his future-daughter-in-law, after all.
Most of the crowd had dispersed- In fact, practically everyone had left. It was just Bruce, being a lonely old man by himself in the entire hall. 
At last, he decided to just call his son. 
“Damian.” 
“Yes.”
“Where are you?” 
“...Why?” 
“I need to meet my daughter-in-law.” 
“No.” 
And then he hung up. 
Bruce looked up only to see three teens sneaking out from the side door. He shook his head, sighed, and went back to his hotel.  
---
/Part Twelve/

Poor Bruce :( Issok you’ll meet Mari sooner or later <3
Next chapter is probably going to be heavy salt about Lila knowing MDC

🎨 (ah i just saw this! if it’s not too late!!!)
Nik, thank you so much for sending this! It’s probably escaped everyone’s notice by now but this ask game actually expects me to pick one of your latest ten edits. I just thought that was worth pointing out because that is not happening with anyone else and it’s certainly not happening with you. I also usually try to put them vaguely in order of preference but not this time because they are all my preference.
SUN and MOON - Only the first edit I am going to review and already a Masterpiece. The gif layering! The animation! The use of colour! It’s all so pretty and well thought out. The first gif is probably my favourite of the four, it’s just so neat. The falling snow with the yellow filter over it almost looks like sparks, it adds to the pretty.
DIN DJARIN + Troubled Birds Memes / GROGU + Troubled Birds Memes - There are memes and then there are Memes and both of these posts definitely fall into the latter category. When I saw that gifset of Din and the troubled birds for the first time I was laughing so much, I was so tickled by the idea and how well chosen the quotes were. You have managed to have gifs with impeccable comic timing! The way that on some of them the whole quote doesn’t appear until just the right frame... ugh, it’s perfect.
I want more... and I know I shouldn’t. - I love the text effects in first and last gifs, the unexpected use of pastels in association with Darth Vader of all people! It works! The big letters in the boxes are really neat. The layering of scenes is perfectly done. They both bookend that glorious middle gif with the rippling water. I... I don’t know how you did that but it’s incredible.
KELLY MARIE TRAN - Oh how I love this! The way that you’ve picked a colour palette and stuck with it is fantastic. The second panel with the TVs is great and probably my favourite part, just such a clever idea and it’s coloured so well. The first and last panels with the torn paper to tie them together are really pleasing and how could I not mention her gorgeous angel wings and halo in panel three? This is just wonderful. It’s what she deserves.
Day 7: Free Choice - The way these panels are all so different in style and yet they go so perfectly together... I’m in awe. You just have a great instinct for positioning things within a space and using colour to its full potential. You’re amazing.
“Beopero? That’s how they say Pedro… on Mars?” - As usual I don’t know how you did this but I love how it’s animated. Just takes this post to a whole other level! The little “like” heart that pops up, the incredibly realistic swiping animations, and the cute videos! Excellent choice of posts as well and I love how you have coloured them.
Escalating degrees of laughter/wheezing - Gosh this gifset makes me smile so much! I love that I have something in common with Pedro, and that’s the wheezing and rocking back and forth when I am really laughing. I love that you have told the story of Pedro’s laughter, it’s not just a random collection of moments of him laughing, it’s in order of his self control. You’ve really thought about this. That’s very galaxy brain of you.
Kingsman: The Golden Circle (Agent Whiskey) - Sometimes on Tumblr.com an edit is so good, you remember the first time you saw it no matter how many more times you come across it. This is one of those times. This was my first time seeing rotating text like that and it blew me away. You know the best part? It’s seamless. These boots are made for walkin’ just goes around and around and Whiskey in the background just goes around and around and you don’t know where the gif actually begins. That’s brilliant. The text animation on all of these gifs is inspired but it’s the first gif that lives in my mind rent free.
“How would you like to ride home on a real cowboy?” - You... *through tears* made this. I love that you have used a more muted colour palette this time around - I associate a bright blue with Whiskey so strongly, it’s refreshing to see other colours with him. The ye olde Western style just works so well here. Each of these posters has clearly taken a lot of time and effort. I think my favourite is the first, it was just so unexpected but wonderful!
“They all hate you, Mando, because you’re a legend.” - This colour palette! The little animations! The glitching helmet! Wee Grogu and Din with shadows that overlap... oh the Symbolism. This is just perfection.
“Sometimes you gotta do bad things to catch bad people.” - Your poster series is beautiful! This is another favourite of mine. I love that the colour palette is the colours of the Columbian flag. His own words on his skin on the fourth one as he struggles to carry the weight of them... really powerful. The colourful silhouettes on the third, the way they move! And the relatively simple first one with that bright red. The use of black and white and shades of grey throughout, like Javi’s morality... Yes. This is the good stuff.
Purple Rain - Fun fact! This was the first edit of yours that I ever saw (on 11th March, please write down our anniversary for future reference) and I loved it! It was so creative, I thought. Using the photo of him in the water was very clever. I naturally have a soft spot for this one. :)
If you don’t accept me for who I am with my frog then… go away. - This post baffles me. Where are the notes!? I thought this was funny! Din loves him despite the warning signs frog. The frog in Tom Holland’s mouth has mysteriously disappeared recently... Grogu has declined to comment.
trust me, i went to college - Just a big “YEAH!!!” for this post. You have captured my thoughts completely. Why he so broaaaaaad? I love his floof. His happy crinkles. This!!! Yeah, this is a Good Post.
So, Nik, I have made it to the end of your creations tag. I have written this very long essay for you. Your creations here, what you can do with Photoshop, is just incredible. I barely mentioned how perfect your colouring always is but that’s because it constantly gets overshadowed by the creativity you pour into each of your posts. You’re always experimenting, trying something new, surprising us. You have just got a talent for this. You’re an inspiration to me and, I’m sure, many others. I wish you and your Photoshop program a very good day. :)
creators send me 🎨 and i’ll tell you my favourite of your last ten creations and why

Artist ask thing!
I was tagged by @kourvo​ and I am a big baby who is afraid to tag even my mutuals so if you see this I WOULD like to read your responses and please DO tag me if you fill it out. :’-)
Tumblr media
What is the character you’ve drawn the most (Can be original or fanart) Other people’s Lavellans by about a mile.
What colour do you often use? I like muted and muddy colors. Give me those soft tonal shifts!!
Any colour you are bad at using? Bright and poppy shades. It isn’t in my programming.
When drawing people, where do you start? Jawline, then nose, then eyes, then mouth.
What is a character only your eraser will love? I’ve accepted that I’ll never draw Solas and that this will be why I never climb to the top of the DA art fandom.
Which of your works took the longest time? Almost definitely this one for @teknon​ who put a lot of faith in me, haha. This is still one of the most ambitious concepts I’ve ever actually completed. 🥺🙏
What techniques do you use when you want to improve in drawing? Eugh... I really haven’t actively tried to improve in a long time. Any of my improvements have been through sheer repetition, like taking on two dozen portrait commissions inevitably makes me better at faces. A lot of times I will burn out, stop drawing for a few months, then be slightly better when I get back at it. It’s a mystery. 💦
What do you think of the art of the person who gave you this ask meme? Their art is so lovely and striking and distinctive!! Extremely strong and emotive portraits. Wonderful use of light and dark values. When I read in their response to this that they don’t often use reference, I was like, “...?? How is this possible?”
What art tools/media are you good with? All my digital work is Procreate + iPad. Whenever I’m traveling I’ll bring a sketchbook (Leuchtturm is the best) and some ink pens.
Art tools/media you are bad at? Pastels, watercolor, charcoal. Messy things.
What do you think about your own art? ... Honestly I’m not a fan, haha. Occasionally I’ll make something that I’m proud of, but the vast majority of the time I’m just frustrated. This probably means I need to make some changes to my approach. But. Y’know. There’s currently a very large gulf between where I am and where I would like to be.
Do you consult references for your drawings? Every time for every thing. You haven’t lived until you’ve got eight tabs open of searches for “old man stern”, “old man angry”, “old man frown”, “old man face downward angry”--
What do you like about your art? I like my line work. I like how I render different planes and edges on a face.
What habits do you have while drawing? Planning to do something quick and then accidentally overworking it.
Are you good at drawing faces facing right? I think so.
How frequently do you draw? Not at all, then a TON for a short period of time. This is maybe my worst habit.
What do you do when you have artist’s block? I wait six months to several years. I do “junk food” art like drawing an easy portrait to build my confidence a bit. Photo/master studies.
What must you have when you draw? I have to have some noise, and my workspace has to be free of clutter. 9/10 times I will make a hot drink to have beside me; 7/10 times I forget about it.
Do you have a lot of stray lines (messy lineart)? Nah. I’m pretty economical.
What is drawing to you? Something I’ve been doing for a long time. A place where I have put most of my skill points but not enough of my attention and dedication.
Your art goal from now on? Make things that are unrecognizably mine. Confront my insecurities. Draw for no audience whatsoever.
Artists you’ve had influence from? See next.
Artists you like? Akihiko Yoshida, John Singer Sargent, John William Waterhouse, Ivan Bilibin, Even Amundsen.
Which is easier to draw, humans or animals? Ha ha. Humans.
Show us an old drawing. This is my favorite one to peddle out.
Tumblr media
What is the charm-point of your art? Nice faces that are pleasant to look at. Chiseled cheekbones and numerous elf ears.
What is the first thing you would draw if we’re talking about fantasy? Elves, unsurprisingly. If I were just doodlin’ it would be outfit and armor designs for various adventurer types.
Please draw your most beloved character: I have spent literally 100% of my artistic energy on donation drawings so here is a year-old Lavellan that I still like a lot, to represent Elves as whole.
Tumblr media
When thinking of characters is it mostly female? male? or androgynous/no sex? I think it’s a mix, at this point? When I was younger I would only draw girls.
What did you draw yesterday? Donation drawings! Last one was a nice OC. :-)
What is the most fun part to draw? Eyes and brows. Hair is fun to draw but miserable to paint.
What part of other people’s drawings do you notice first? Line work, color theory. Mark-making.
Regarding backgrounds, what is your method of making it easier to draw? Simply do not draw a background.
What colour coordinations do you like? Zorn palette, baybee.
Tumblr media
What character did you last draw? Attractive male-presenting OC with long white hair and a nice skin tone.
What part of drawing do you pay most attention to? Line work requires the most active attention. You cannot save a bad drawing with good painting. I have learned this. I may spend more time painting, but it doesn’t ask as much of me mentally.
How do you feel about drawing adult art? At any moment I am ready to sell out and be paid large amounts of money to draw NSFW content.
Do you like criticism from others? When I solicit it and when it’s from someone whose opinions I value. That sounds like “no”, but it’s more that many people don’t give good, actionable criticism. Luckily I am my own harshest critic. 🤡
How many people do you normally draw per artwork? 1/6 of one humanoid.

Pretty Colourful!
Hi, guys! I am back with a one-shot! No this has nothing to do with Wanted: Lila, since my brain kinda refuses to let write it down, even if I know how it is going to end. But whatever, I now have for you a fluffy fic about Rhys and Art having some fun with paints together (and Feyre will show up at the end again)!
Word count: 3k
____________
It's midday on a wonderful summer day and three year old Artemas has woken up from his nap not long ago. After being fed some mashed potatoes, baby-carrots, peas and butter cookies for lunch, Art was cleaned up and brought into his room to play by his father.
For a toddler, Art has a really big room. The floor is mostly covered in midnight blue fluffy and soft carpets. One wall is painted completely dark blue and golden and white stars are dotted around in constellations. As well as the phases of the moon, in a circle directly above the bed, which is Art's favorite thing on that wall. Even the falling stars from Starfall are seen in their bright blue glowing glory in the right corner beside the bed. The other wall opposite is painted with mountains in different shades of blue, and the other two do look like forests in dark green, brown and black. The walls were, of course, painted by Feyre herself, when she was pregnant with Art.
The room has two floor-to-ceiling windows, which both lead out to the same big balcony. The glass doors are sealed shut with magic since Art has tried several times to jump down from the balcony. Both Feyre and Rhys don't want their little baby son doing that and getting hurt, not to killed since they highly doubt that a jump like that could kill him, with their baby having strong magic like that, but they aren't taking any chances. Now the blue curtains are open and the room is flooded with warm daylight.
The room has also three doors. The first one is next to the window on the right and leads into the hallway. The former black wooden door is now adorned with various colors in different forms. Some look like moons, stars, suns, shooting stars, flowers, even a hand print here and there, and some basic forms. This door isn't the only door that looks like this in Art's room. The other two painted doors are opposite the first door, but in the far two corners of the room. One leads into the rooms own bathroom and the other into the closet/storage room for Art's toys/Art's "secret" playroom.
Beside the doors, most of the furniture also have been painted on. The room has now a tiny bed, a nightstand, a big armchair, shelves upon shelves filled with various stuffed animals (who are all named, and sorted both alphabetically and from most favorite to least), a tiny desk with bookshelves around it and a massive bookshelf between the windows with a fast growing book collection of storybooks of all shapes and sizes.
Even the walls aren't save from the paint, one corner between window and door is known as Art's little atelier. The whole corner has been used as a canvas from floor to ceiling. A small shelf stores canvases, palettes, various containers of paint, brushes, sponges, colorful pencils, crayons, chalks, pastels, papers, and other art utensils. Art likes to imitate Feyre as much as possible, when it comes to painting and art in general.
Now father and son are sitting in the middle of the room at a colourfully painted tiny table. Which Art has demand like a spoilt little prince to have been brought from his playroom by his father. Art has meanwhile plopped himself onto the carpet and looked over his paints in his corner. When Rhys came back with the table and set it in front of his son, said son has looked up to him, pointed one finger at the corner and simply said "Paints." At which Rhys just had risen an eyebrow and didn't move. Art's brows creased at that, not used not being obeyed, but than his face cleared.
"Thank you, daddy. Can you please get some paints?" Art has said slowly and carefully to pronounce every word correctly. "You're welcome, little moon. Now was that so hard, Artemas?" Rhys smiled at the head shaking Art, and started to move to the "Ala" (Art's little atelier). "And of course, what colours do you want?" "Blue," it came from Art before Rhys even finished the question, "red, yellow, green, white and black."
After Rhys has grabbed the paints and settled beside his son, summing papers and paintbrushes, while opening the containers and scooping the colours on a palette.
Feyre had made sure that the paints are save for Art to eat, since even the Heir of Night is a normal baby and now toddler and puts almost anything in his mouth. So now Art can go wild with it.
Meanwhile Art looks excited at the colours, a big smile attached to his face. Grinning, Rhys ruffles Art's short black hair, looking forward as to what Art will paint.
"Thanks, daddy!" Art grins up to his father, a brush already in hand.
"For you, everything, little moon." Rhys says sincerely and moves his head down until their noses meet. Art's impossibly big grin widens even more. For a few seconds, neither of the two moves, but then Art goes in for the kill, Rhys is only a millisecond to slow.
"First!" Art cheers loudly, after he kissed his father's nose. Both start grinning at each other again and than dissolve into laughter.
Cauldron, he loves his son so much.
After the laughter died down, Art faced his paints and paper and started dipping the paintbrush into blue paint. Now concentrating on painting, Art ignores his father, who has slung an arm around him, and the world around him. He barely registers the kiss on his head by his father. Rhys smiles into his son's hair, as Art barely reacts to him.
Mother, when he is like this, he is so much like Feyre. It's so adorable.
But when Art is like this, there's isn't much to do, since Art will probably not move from his spot for some time. Being content with painting in peace, Art is completely distracted and has no desire to do anything else right now. It's like he is in his own world right now.
So Rhys is just happy with watching Art paint, listening to Art's mumbles, which most of the time make absolutely no sense at all, and looking out of the window at the Sidra. Since interaction with his son when he is in this state is practically nonexistent, Rhys doesn't even try. He also doesn't react when his son paints over the ends of the paper and onto the table. Art does it constantly and the table is full of paint because of that.
It's something Feyre does often as well, painting on something that isn't a canvas or papers, usually walls or furniture. And that shows to Rhys at least that his little moon is more like is mother than him, despite looking like him. And Rhys loves it.
It's been almost half an hour when Art gets bored painting with brushes. So Art puts the still covered in red paint brush down. Then without hesitation, Art puts his whole tiny hand into the palette, still mumbling to himself. Cold paint squishes between his fingers. He giggles at the feeling.
Art loves this feeling. Just the paint simply on his skin.
He didn't really paid attention into what colours he put his hand, so now blue and red are covering his hand, mixing slightly into purple. But Art doesn't care, so he just continues painting, starting a new story in his head, at least to him. To everyone else, Art's mumbling while he paints is mostly incoherent and nonsensical words mixed with words and sentences he knows. And for a three year old, Artemas knows a lot of words, courtesy mostly to his older cousins Cadan and Hemera. Who try to get him as up to speed with them as possible.
Rhys didn't even noticed that his son has gone from brush painting to finger painting. His hand is still on his mumbling son's back, who made no indication himself that something has changed. Rhys is absently drawing circles with his thumb on the tiny back and just stares almost vacantly out of the window, without really seeing anything, thinking on an slight issue with the Lords of Hewn City. Which he will take care of tomorrow. But in his head he is going over the issue and the solution he and Feyre came up with. And then is thoughts lead him into thinking of his beloved mate Feyre.
The High Lord of the Night Court is as lost to the world as the Heir of Night is.
But Rhys was abruptly thrown off his thoughts when he feels something cold and slick gliding across his right cheek. And a giggle follows the disappearance of the feeling. His son's giggle. Casting his head down, Rhys looks at his giggling and at his face pointing son. The palm of the hand that points at him is covered completely in paint. Red and blue are mixed into purple, while yellow almost completely disappeared into green, and white and black merged into various shades of grey. Non of the colours are dried yet, so the palm is glinting wetly.
The other hand is clean and is clutching Rhys' shirt to keep the laughing toddler upright. Whose giggling transformed into a full blown laugh.
"I don't think that that's so funny, little moon." Rhys says grinning, loving hearing his son laugh like that, even if it is apparently on his expense.
"Daddy, .... real ... pretty... now!" Art gasps out between laughing, not even bothering with sentence structures or the correct pronunciations of the words, causing him to say "Leal" and "pletty".
"Oh am I now?" Rhys asks amused, violet eyes glittering like stars. Art just nods while still laughing, not noticing his father's finger dipping into blue paint.
"How about I make you pretty?" Rhys asks as he taps his son's nose, painting it blue.
Art gasps and stops laughing, blinking at his father, who now laughs at his son's stunned face.
"Little moon, ... real.... pretty .. now." Laughing, Rhys imitates his son, also pronouncing it incorrectly.
Art crosses his arms, smearing paint into his blue shirt, and pouts at his laughing father. But then he has an idea. Uncrossing his arms, turns to his father, who has calmed down and is facing the ceiling, eyes closed and grinning widely. Tugging at his father's shirt and a "Daddy", Art gets the wanted attention from his father. Rhys hums and brushes strands of hair away from his son's face.
"I make you pretty!" Art explains or better demands, points from him to Rhys, "and you make me pretty!" The finger points first to Rhys than to Art again and than to the paints on the table. Throughout the demand, Rhys eyebrow has risen, but than he sighs and smiles.
"Okay, little moon, let's paint each other's faces." He obeys amused, already knowing that his stubborn son will not take an "no" for an answer, well at least not if it isn't satisfiedly explained to Art. And it does sound like a lot of fun.
Rhys needs to duck down a little so the blue-nosed toddler can reach him comfortably. So father and son start painting the face of the other.
They paint until no patch of skin is clean and untouched, covering their face in shades of blue, red, purple, yellow, green, orange, white, gray and black. Rhys has drown a white full moon, a yellow crescent moon and a red waning moon on little moon's forehead. Art has only put stars on his father's entire face, in all colours, all shapes and sizes overlapping and mixing together, only a few stars are still recognisable as such.
Satisfied, both father and son lean back, hands at hips, admiring their work with a critical eye, but than smiling widely, mirroring each other. Violet eyes meet blue-grey eyes. And both start laughing again.
"You are very ... very pretty now, Daddy!" Art wrings out between his laughter, hands clutching his stomach, smearing more paint into his shirt. The "r" is again a "l", except for the "are".
Cauldron, his little moon is so cute and wonderful.
Rhys was about to give his son the compliment back, but than they hear from downstairs a voice, shouting.
"I'm home, boys!"
"Mommy!" Art has straighten and stopped laughing, but now excited to see his mother. Getting to his feet, he has completely forgetting about his paint covered hands and face. But Rhys catches his arm as he was about to run out, stopping him completely. Art turns his face and sees a mischievous smile on his father's face that immediately gets his interest. Art is always up for some mischief.
"How about we show Mommy our new masterpieces, little moon?" Rhys whispers softly, the smile still on his face.
Art grins and than giggles, nodding, he puts his arms up, silently demanding to be picked up. Rhys stands and swoops up his son in one fluid move, not caring for the paint that Art smears on his shirt. With a little magic, Rhys makes the paint in their faces instantly dry, so they couldn't accidentally destroy their masterpieces. Going down the stairs, they scan the foyer. No Feyre in sight.
"Mommy?" Art shouts. "In the kitchen, little moon!" Feyre shouts back. Turning left, Rhys almost tiptoes to the kitchens door, hoping his mate isn't facing them. And he is in luck, Feyre has her back to them, preparing a tea. Seemingly not noticing them.
Impatient as ever, Art makes a noise and says "Mommy look! We are pretty now!"
At her son's weird sentence, Feyre turns around, prepared to say that they are always pretty, but the words died down at the sight of her most beloved males: her mate, and her son. Stunned, Feyre gaps at them, taking in the paint covered faces. Blue is the dominant colour in both faces. Rhys' face seems to be covered in a similar shape over and over. Feyre can make the shapes out to be stars. Art's face seems to have a blue background with things painted over it. The most eye-catching are the three moons on his forehead.
And to be honest, Feyre can't decide who has more artistic talent, her three year old son or her well over 500 year old mate. But she leans slightly towards her son, and she is not biased with that opinion. Not even a little, and Rhys would agree with her.
This isn't what she expected to welcome her home, but she welcomes it nonetheless.
"Look, little moon, we are so pretty, we made your mother speechless!" Rhys says proudly. Art makes a proud noise of agreement, while nodding his head.
"Feyre Darling, tell as how pretty we are!" Rhys requests dramatically to his still speechless and gaping mate. "Tell us! Tell us, Mommy!" Art chimes in, excited. At this, Feyre snaps out of her stupor, and laughs.
"Both of you're beautiful!" Feyre smiles brightly and advances towards them. The second she is within arm reach of Rhys, an arm is slung around her waist, drawing her closer. Feyre brings her arms around her mates waist and her son's back. Art leans an arm around his mother's shoulder, the other is already on his father's.
Hugging each other, the small family stays like that and enjoying the closeness and the warmth.
Bending down a little, Rhys kisses Feyre. Both smile into the kiss. But they don't kiss for long with a impatient toddler in their arms. After breaking the kiss, Feyre tiptoes and kisses her son's cheek.
"What happened?" Feyre asks amused, looking closer at their faces.
"Your son,-" Rhys starts but Feyre interrupts him. "My son?"
"Yes, he is your son only when he paints, Darling. He is so much like you when he does." Feyre laughs at that.
Well, he isn't wrong.
"Anyways, little moon has decided that my face would be prettier with paint on it and followed his impulse," Rhys continues amused, smiling at Art, who smiled back innocently. "And I just copied him, making him prettier as well. And than this little artist here decided that we should paint each other's faces to make the other pretty. And that's all there is to it, Darling."
"Both of you are definitely pretty" Feyre agrees, smiling. "Are those stars, little moon?"
"Yes!" Art answers proudly. "All of it! Stars!"
"Is that a new masterpiece, little moon?" His mother inquiries, tracing a line of a half visible star on his father's face. "To bad we can't hang this one." Rhys laughs at that. "To bad, isn't it." He agrees. "But you could paint us later, Feyre Darling." Rhys suggests it because of a growing frown and sad eyes on Art's face.
"Can you, mommy?" Art is immediately onboard with the idea, excited to be painted by his talented mother.
In his eyes, Feyre is the best artist there is and he wants to be as good as her, no maybe even better than her!
"I can and definitely will!" Feyre promises, "As soon as I have time, this is going to be my next project! Because this needs to be immortalised"
"It does, doesn't it!" Rhys agrees, grinning. Art nods his head wildly in agreement, looking rather smug.
Than he hugs his parents closer and buries his face in-between them, making a happy purr. Feyre and Rhys laugh and smile at each other.
What did they do to deserve such a wonderful gift, like their son.
"I love you both!" Art mumbles, his head still buried between his parents. But they can hear the smile in his voice.
"We love you, too, Artemas." They say together, smiling down at their son.
And not even two weeks later, the High Lady of the Night Court has finished her newest favourite painting. It shows the High Lord of the Night Court and the Heir of Night, cheek to cheek, smiling, eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky, paint covering their faces in various colours and shapes, making them prettier and pretty colourful.

16 grey kitchen ideas that are stylish and sophisticated
Tamara Kelly January 5, 2021 11:08 am
We earn a commission for products purchased through some links in this article.
You're reading: 16 grey kitchen ideas that are stylish and sophisticated
In the past, there may have been more of an all-or-nothing approach to colour in the kitchen. Today’s palette is more restrained, with grey kitchen ideas proving a major hit. Tone is important, probably even more so within the grey family where  warmer greys create a different feel from blue-based shades of slate, for example.
Grey not you colour? We have plenty more colour schemes in our kitchen ideas channel
Grey kitchen ideas to inspire
Consider ever surface to create your grey kitchen scheme, from walls to worktops and everything in between. For subtle contrast, two different shades of the same calm colour tend to work better on cabinetry than three or four, which can look like a design mistake. An island painted in a deeper or contrasting colour to that of the wall cabinets will make it a focal point in your grey kitchen.
Base cabinets in darker shades than wall cupboards enhance the design and prevent it looking top heavy. For stronger contrast, think light and dark, or two bold greys of the same ‘weight’ and balance. Too much heavy colour can make a room feel smaller, so you may want to balance things with a neutral floor and walls.
For balance, kitchen lighting ideas are all-important in a grey kitchen. Delivering the right brightness levels and warmth as and where you need it.
Read on to discover our favourite grey kitchen ideas…
1. Blend contemporary designs
Image credit: Harvey Jones
Create a sophisticated grey kitchen by mixing contemporary design materials – across cabinets, worktops and flooring. Combining different materials adds interest to the space, allowing the design to reflect character of the rest of the house. Streamlined matt grey cabinets welcome a throughly modern vibe while the natural wood worktop helps to ground the look, and stop it from feeling too stark. It’s all about balance.
Expert advice for mixing materials comes from Melissa Klink from Harvey Jones, ‘A wooden worktop adds warmth in a kitchen, but is it a soft material which can become scratched or scorched during wood preparation. Confine the use of wood to soft-use areas such as breakfast bars for eating or  entertaining. Use a harder surface which is easy to clean, such as  granite or quartz composite, for food prep areas.’
2. Frame grey units with brass detail
Image credit: Matthew Williams
The devil, they say, is in the detail. But we find this subtle use of brass to edge these deep grey units positively heavenly. It’s a great way to bring extra glamour to existing cabinetry. Or to make new off-the-shelf furniture look a whole lot more expensive. Coordinating lighting ups the ante even further.
3. Unite an open-plan living area
Image credit: Brent Darby
Choose a warming shade of grey to make an open-plan kitchen and living area feel like a comforting haven. Use the same rich tone of grey throughout, from kitchen cabinetry to the paint colour on the walls of the living area, to unite the spaces – making them feel like one.
Enhance the warmth by using natural wood worktops, flooring and accessories. Textured fabrics with a tactile quality will help to add depth and a sense of cosiness to the open-plan elements.
4. Team grey with light-coloured wood for Scandi-style
Image credit: Colin Poole
To emulate the effortlessly stylish ethos of Scandi-style in a grey kitchens look to incorporate wood or wood effects. Here on-trend grey base cabinets paired with open shelving showcases the natural material to perfection – creating a understated air of sophistication. Consider stripped-back woods for flooring, dining tables and worktops, as well as shelving.
‘Look to light coloured wood like beech or ash if budget allows,’ suggests Hayley Simmons, Head of Merchandising for Magnet. ‘Avoid stained or varnished woods for countertops as the raw, natural, untreated looks is much more in keeping with Scandinavian style.’

5. Match your paint shades
Image credit: David Giles
Create a uniformed look by matching the paint colour on the walls to the chosen grey shade on the cabinets. This helps to seamlessly blend one into the other, helping to create the illusion of a bigger space. This is an especially useful technique in small galley kitchens. With paint matching services, and many kitchen fitters even making their own paint range this look has never been easier to achieve.
6. Introduce a colour match for all work surfaces
Image credit: AluSplash, Smoked Ember Panel Splashback
If you’re looking for a matching grey colour scheme choose one tone to incorporate throughout all of the work surfaces. To keep the look unified choose the same finish for all surfaces, so if the paint finish is matt choose the same for the floor tiles and the splashback. This new matte splashback features a coarse finish that forms the surface of the Smoked Ember panel, ideal for complementing natural finishes and enhancing a soothingly soft colour palette.

Keeping the walls painted white helps to highlight the grey choices on the furniture and flooring. Finish the look off perfectly with a statement butler sink and wicker accessories.
7. Work the pastel trend with a grey backdrop
Image credit: Dulux
Last big in the early noughties, pastels have been reworked for 2021 with a new emphasis on sherbet oranges, violet whites, peaches and muted greens. And the best backdrop to these mouthwatering array of colours? Grey – in this case Misty Mirror by Dulux, paired with Tranquil Dawn cabinets. A change of wall colour can transform every other element of a kitchen design.
8. Add interest with a feature wall
Image credit: David Parmiter
Add interest and character with a feature wall that mimics the grey colour scheme. Shaker-style units in an easy-going mushroom hue keep the look light and fresh. Original Victorian wooden flooring adds warmth, and a woodland-inspired feature wall for the dining area gives this space depth and detail.
Wallpaper can work well in a kitchen. Go for a dramatic design to create a feature wall. Although the pattern is bold, the colour is a subtle grey, which brings tranquility to a large, open-plan room like this.
9. Echo grey elements of stainless steel
Image credit: Darren Chung
Enhance the natural tones of stainless steel – the brushed-chrome finish offers as close a colour match as you’ll get within the grey colour palette. Encase an industrial-style sink with tonal cabinetry to present a uniformed finish. Go one step further by adding matching taps and fittings, even industrial-style pendants to tie the cohesive scheme together.
10. Mix materials and finishes
Image credit: David Sill
With an increasing trend for championing natural materials in our homes designers are looking for more and more creative ways to incorporate wood into their kitchen designs. This example is a perfect partnership of contemporary high-gloss cabinets alongside natural-look wood worktop and splashback. The contrast creates a harmonious blend of modern design with the warmth and grounding ethos of wood.
11. Brighten an outlook with a splash of yellow
Image credit: Robert Sanderson
What brightens up a cloudy day? A little bit of sunshine, of course! The same can happen in a deep grey kitchen. This yellow glass splashback beside the window is a smart design idea, as it sits ready to attract the light and shine a warming glow onto the surrounding space. Yellow works brilliantly, thanks to it’s association with sunshine – but you could use any bright colour to create the same effect.
12. Balance the light with darker hues
Image credit: Chris Snook
Go for stylish and sophisticated with dark design choices. Feel emboldened to use brooding dark greys and walnut wood by getting the balance right with lighter tones. Keeping the walls white will allow the light to fill the space more freely. Teaming a white tiled splashback and a light grey herringbone floor adds the perfect fashionable finishing touches, that won’t date thanks to the muted colours.
13. Create the perfect grounding with concrete
Image credit: James French
Draw on the natural grey tone of concrete to create a contemporary, authentic grey scheme. Start from the floor up, tailor your kitchen to create a vision in grey. Polished concrete floors have become increasing popular in recent years, with the rise of open-plan living. The look can be easily achieve now thanks to a luxury vinyl, to save on the expense of having your flooring professional tailored.
The beauty of vinyl over the real thing is the maintenance. Faux flooring measures are more durable and easier to clean than the real thing, because the material is less porous and easy marking. Which can’t be a bad thing in a busy kitchen?!

14. Embrace exposed brick for an industrial look
Image credit: Magnet, Tribeca kitchen in Graphite, starting from £3,136
The trend for industrial style remains hugely popular. Grey is the perfect shade to help achieve the look, because it’s not too far removed from industrial steel. This contemporary look is characterised by raw materials like exposed brick, natural wood and metal. Paired with rich greys and urban-style accessories like prominent metal pendants and matt black bar stools. The mix of dark grey tones and textures creates a sophisticated industrial finish.
15. Say yes to Shaker units
Image credit: David Giles
Want a kitchen that looks both sleek and stylish? Then bespoke Shaker units could be just what you’re looking for. And Shaker doesn’t have to be trad! As this example proves. While handless is all the rage, we think these stylish copper handles add the wow factor here. White metro tiles also help set off this striking look.
16. Add natural vibrancy to grey with accents of green
Image credit: Lizzie Orme
There’s no danger of this grey kitchen looking gloomy thanks to an injection of forest green. The splashback tiles are complemented by real-life greenery in the form of succulents and fresh herbs. Leather handles are a smart finishing touch that makes the off-the-shelf units look high-end.
17. Welcome warmth with wood furnishings
Image credit: Lizzie Orme
Grey has a reputation for being a cool and clinical colour – but by mixing in some wood, you can create a positively warm and cosy look. The trick is to find the right shade, and mix in the right tone of timber. Here, almost purple-grey units have been teamed with a chunky pale oak worktop and knotted floorboards to harmonious effect. If you wanted something that worked with a darker, charcoal grey, you could try a deeper walnut.
18. Layer tones of grey
Image credit: Tom Howley
Using various layers of grey shades to pick out individual elements of the room creates a cohesive feel in this kitchen. The walls and island are painted a dark, slate grey, the cabinetry is a softer shade, and darker flecks in the marble of the worksurface and splashback prove an effortless transition between light and dark. Keeping the rest of the scheme light keeps the room feeling airy despite the abundance of dark grey.
19. Smarten up compact kitchens with colour
Image credit: Chalon
In a smaller space, some might worry that grey will prove an oppressive choice, especially darker shades, but this well-ordered kitchen shows that doesn’t have to be the case. Using the same dark shade on the lengthways run of cabinetry, sink area, upstand, kickplate, stool and lighting is a cohesive, eye-catching choice, and the pale shade of grey used throughout the rest of the scheme keeps the look airy.
20. Add grey shelving for a casually cohesive look
Image credit: Lizzie Orme
We love these smart grey units, but using them on the walls, too, might have been a step too far. Instead, a simple grey shelf makes for more casual – even rustic – storage that doesn’t make the room seem too dark. Marble worktops, a Belfast sink and worktop-to-ceiling metro tiles in bright white further lighten the mood.
21. Choose French Grey for a rustic scheme

Grey is just about the most flexible colour for a kitchen. In charcoal, it can feel very modern, but opt for a French grey like this and you’re immediately transported to the Gallic countryside. Even if you do live in Grimsby.
A soothing green-grey, French grey takes its name from the shade heavily featured in French design and wallpapers from the 19th century. It’s as popular now as it was then thanks to its unique soothing quality, which makes it perfectly suited to relaxed rustic kitchen-diners like this one.
If you’re going to introduce a few different colours in accessories, it’s best you keep to one single tone for the backdrop – so make sure your splashback, cabinets and flooring all match. Otherwise the overall effect will be less stylish and more shambles.

22. Throw in pops of bright yellow

Add highlights to brighten up the grey, in the form of an accent colour. Here, bold yellow Tolix-style stools and accessories inject energy and fun. The matching flex cord on the  Notice, too, how the interior door has been painted in a very dark grey to match the window frames, for a more cohesive look.
23. Go white on the walls

Deep grey base units make this kitchen feel very grown up. But to keep the scheme bright and airy, off-white units have been used above, and the walls painted in a bright whiter shade so that they blend in. We said earlier that a darker walnut timber works well with charcoal grey, and here’s the proof.
24. Tiny kitchen? Pick pale grey and add reflective surfaces
Image credit: Lizzie Orme
Dark grey units may have been too much in this diddy kitchenette, but a soft grey works well. The cabinetry is complemented by stainless-steel accessories including a sink, appliances and kickboards, which also help to reflect light around the small space. It goes to show that grey doesn’t have to mean gloomy.
25. Add copper accents to warm a mid grey
Image credit: Paul Massey
Copper is very on trend right now and it makes the perfect foil for a pale grey space, bringing out the pinky hues and feminising what could be a very austere space. Use it for lighting, pans, and – if your budget can stretch to one – a bronze or copper range cooker like this one from Mercury.
26. Trim with timber
Image credit: Darren Chung
Temper all-grey units with a wood trim to give a clean, warm edge. Take it a step further by introducing matching wood wall cabinets. Give your scheme a cool, New York loft vibe with ever-popular metro tiles.
27. Go dark and dramatic
Image credit: Paul Raeside
For true drama, go for a really dark shade of grey. This charcoal vignette gives the open plan area a sophisticated, sexy air, disappearing when not wanted, while still being no-nonsense functional and capable of being put to hard work.
28. Incorporate a contrasting colour splashback
Image credit: Lizzie Orme
Add a punchy accent colour by way of a statement splashback. This can be tiled or glass, depending on the look you’re after. In the high-gloss grey kitchen above a fabulous fuchsia pink splashback adds a vibrant hit of colour. The chosen accent colour is accentuated further by stark white walls as a contrast.
29. Dare to pair pink walls as a backdrop to grey units
Image credit: Colin Poole
This isn’t a look for the faint hearted, but if you LOVE pink, it’s a winning combo. Rosy copper handles and utensils, together with wooden furniture, help blend the cool of the grey with the warmth of the candy-coloured walls.
 30. Team glossy grey with striking blue
Image credit: David Giles
Finding an accent colour to go with a mid grey like this can be tricky – but this teal works perfectly. An expanse of glass splashback mimics the glossy finish of the slab-style doors for a look that’s very clean, modern and practical.
What colour goes best with grey kitchens?
When choosing an accent colour or a mixed palette for your grey kitchen, it’s wise to follow trend and trusted colour theory. ‘Either select complementary colours, which are next to each other on a colour wheel, or contrasting shades from opposite sides of the wheel,’ says David Mottershead, MD at Little Greene.
‘Contrasting colours are energising, while complementary colours are calming.’ Soft, pale greys tend to work well for small kitchen ideas, but larger spaces may need some sections of bolder colour to prevent the scheme looking bland and wishy-washy. We like mixing pale greys with deep navy, or even a shot of fuchsia pink.
How do you add warmth to a grey kitchen?
It’s all about the right shade. Warmer tones on the grey scale create a different feel from blue-based shades of slate. So if you’re looking to add warmth start with the right shade – that goes for paint, cabinets and flooring.
Elements of natural timber will add warmth to cooler grey kitchens, and equally a grey-white natural stone floor can cool down a fiery palette. As in nature, earthy browns, greys and sand colours blend harmoniously. Cool greys look good with stainless steel, and brightly coloured accents, such as small appliances, splashbacks and barstools, will help lift the mood.
The right lighting is key to making the colour scheme feel warm and inviting. Opt for warm bulbs rather than cooler white tones, to avoid making your chosen shade of grey feel cold. Pair overhead lighting with plenty of task lighting to add pools of warming light.

Week 2
During this week, it was my first week in fully diving into the final major project and what outcomes I could be envisioning/ creating.
For my project, I personally thought the idea of challenging myself to push my skills I already am familiar with to the most extreme I have done so far. I have always had such a passion for theatrical/ fashion gowns and garments embellished with beads, jewels and crystals. They are beautiful and stunning works of art and labour in my eyes which really inspire me to try and learn those skills so I can create what I am most passionate about. I knew at this point I wanted to do the theme of ‘Patterns and Palettes’ and had the idea of being able to translate those abstract or refined patterns onto the surface of a garment using all of the same materials as these big costumes/ gowns use. I often tend to work in my own colour palette which normally consists of pinks, purples, silvers/ white, blue and occasionally red & black. For me theses colours for some reason are very calming and beautiful to me - the more pastel and paler then the more soft, gentle and calming whereas the more vibrant, bold and rich colours really get me exited and I love the way they stand out in every day to day life. A lot of my projects I have done for my final major projects in the past have been either reds, blacks, whites and very slight hits of others colours such as pink and green on details but never a really rich, bold and striking outcome so I decided after looking at the colour wheel and palettes, that I would work with bold and vibrant purples and blues with their complementary colours which are yellow/ golden shades. This is a combination I’ve never worked with before but always have wanted to so what better time to experiment and go for it. Most of my inspiration for the style or shape of the garment and beading work was mainly scrolling through Pinterest on different images and boards to find inspiration.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once I had got some inspiration to look at and my new colour pallet, I decided to do some rough sketches and designs inspired by what I had seen but also incorporating elements from visual inspiration to create my own style peice. Two of my designs I used my set colours but my other one was done with Red, black and white just to see if I may have liked the colour combinations better but I was firmly keen on my already decided colours. To also get a bit of an experimentation to start, I decided to include with my sketches some mock up patterns made with or similar materials I myself would be using in the process of creating this outcome. It was also a way for me to see how my ideas would be seen and if I needed to change a tone of a colour more lighter or darker to make the most important thing which is the ‘patterns’ to be able to come across prominently and be seen clearly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After I had done my designs, I decided on one final idea that I personally thought would be a challenge but also a fun concept to proceed with. To get a full and “life like” representation/ visualisation of what the garment will hopefully look like at the end of this project, I created a digital photoshop rendering of my desired outcome. This was really a way for me to truly see if I liked the outcome enough to proceeding which I was very happy to do so.
Tumblr media
Once I had my concept in my head and confident I wanted to go through with it, during our online study groups I had to explain a rough idea on what I wanted to create to in which I received positive feedback which I was very happy about. Afterwards, I then started working on my project proposal which due to the fact I was so keen and passionate about what I wanted to create, I found it easy to explain and talk about. Until it was marked and commented on by Sophie, I wouldn’t known whether it was okay or not but I am fairly confident it is around 70/80% good and explains it well.
Point of My Project:
The whole point of this project and specifically creating a garment is a personal way of mine to express what I am most passionate about and love creating. Its almost a ‘mostly’ calming and sometimes tiring but rewarding experience and I get such an buzz and excitement to create and bring my ideas to life in a 3D physical way that is appealing to the eye. About 80/90 percent of the garments I make are for me to wear on which I plan to do so with this. In another way, this is another personal part of my of how I love to express myself. When I get completely dressed up and transform either with all of the compartments together or separately, I feel my most confident and powerful. Its another form of an escape and a happy place. I feel for this project, It would be a good chance for me to wear the garment and all the other elements to go with the complete look as a whole and showcase who I truly am but also to showcase the garment in all of its glory. Although maybe not everyone will understand that it is a personal way of expressing myself and the reason behind it, I myself know the real reason and as long as it makes me happy then that's the most important part. On a slightly smaller side note, one of the reasons I have also chosen purple as one of my main colours is, not only do I feel like it is such a beautiful and rich colour that I have spoken a bit about beforehand but again, it is another personal reason which comes from my mum. My mum is my biggest supporter and allows me to fully be myself no matter what and she has called my her “Purple Prince” ever since I started dying my hair purple and the fact that she knows its one of my favourite colours. It is a simple little saying but means so much to me. I want to do her proud of what I achieve so having this little but meaningful reason behind it just makes it extra personal to me. 
Week 2 Evaluation 
Media, skills, processes and techniques - Evaluative section on – Media, skills, processes and techniques that were used/explored – what was learnt – how wide ranging research informed this - and how these met the purpose of the proposal? First section – your planning, themes, specialism and how you have been working.
During this week i experimented with designs and the incorporation of sewing and physical experimentation with creating patterns on certain designs for my outcome. I also used photoshop to create a digital rendering of my final chosen design. Internet sources e.g. google and pinterest were also used for visual research/ inspiration regarding the theme ‘ Patterns and Palettes’. The small sewing part was just an expermination to see and learn what kind of materials I would be working with and how they perform in creating the designs etc. 
Purpose/ theme/concept – Evaluative section on the FMP development – the thought processes – the struggle to solve a problem the journey of change and learning – why decisions were made and for what purpose - what is the point/function of the work?. How the FMP could be further developed in ambitious and innovative ways? 
I decided in the end to go with a colour scheme/ palette that are my own personally favourite colours and combinations. To me my colours are very stimulating to me in which they keep me feeling passionate and excited but also calm so in a way the whole colour palette and concept  throughout will very much be a representation of my passion and what makes me happy. The journey wasn't too difficult in the sense to create ideas but only 1 design in the end really gave me an excited feel determined and passionate to see this through. My first two other designs just didn't end up grabbing me to them in the end, although they would have been interesting and different/ contrasting outcomes, I really wanted to challenge myself to create all of the patterns myself and push myself to create the most elaborate garment to date. I feel creating the patterns myself will allow the outcome to be as custom and as personal to me much more rather than using for instance already patterned fabric in which the scale of my outcome mostly likely would then be too overpowering to try and incorporate as many patterned fabric areas as much as possible. 
What are you planning for next week? – How and what are you doing?
For next week I plan to go back to any feedback from my proposal and experiment more with the/ similar materials I will be working with throughout my project. This will then enable me to get back into the motion and headspace for the amount of time, effort, precision and detail that will be in my project. 
Evaluation methodology - Evaluative section on the processes of evaluation, feedback, peer assessment, critical reflection and how this IMPACTED on the creative and technical processes.
The feedback i received from Sophie helped me explain my idea/ concept fully to the best of my ability and made me aware of any areas that needed strengthening or visual representation to back up any form of inspiration I took from something.

Final Project (Week 13)
I chose to do Self-Identity for this final project and approached it initially by asking what do I know about myself, what are the things that represent me and how I can incorporate all these elements to successfully create a brand that is able to represent my identity. I started researching some potential symbols and colour palettes that I could eventually use. I decided to use mainly bright pastel colours as I am going for a relatively soft looking yet bright mood. Some explanations and rationale for the different colours are, I chose purple as it represents creativity, yellow as it usually represents bubbly and both reflect my personality, values and interests. As for blue, it usually represents healing which is used to convey how my interests are healing to me. Subsequently, I came up with a few logos (Figure A). 
Tumblr media
                                                         Figure A
I mainly use Adobe Illustrator for this whole project as there were many tools such as the pen tool, line segment tool that were very useful in helping me draw out the shape and details of the logo. For the 1st idea, i decided to convey and express my personality using colours along with signs to represent interests.I chose a purple butterfly as it symbolises joy, positive thinking and creativity which are representative of my personality and values. I also drew the wings of the butterfly into my name initials - “c” and “g” to create my individual identity in the logo. To express my interests, I replaced the body and antenna of the butterfly with a paintbrush and a pair of treble and bass clef to reflect my interests in drawing and music respectively. Logo 2 is a variation of logo 1 by adding outlines. The 3rd logo also used similar colours to the 1st idea to convey the same meanings. My name instead of initials were included in the logo and was fit into the individual piano keys with height variations. This logo is relatively a little more straightforward as it directly symbolises my interest in piano and music. These research and ideas were then presented in Week 11 where I got many helpful feedbacks. 
Some feedback received from classmates was that most preferred logo 2 and that they liked the colour palette. Some feedback from my tutor included how she liked the colour palette and preferred logo 3 and how I could make my name more readable. She also mentioned that there might be too many things going on in logo 1 and 2 and advised me to consider abstraction. With this feedback, I started to incorporate them into my subsequent designs by keeping the outlines, colour palette and worked in the direction of abstraction for my 1st and 2nd logo. I eventually did not go with logo 3 as I felt that it did not really encapsulate or represent me completely. Here is my revised version of the logo and some colour schemes (Figure B).
Tumblr media
                                                         Figure B
Applying my tutor’s and classmates’ comments, I basically simplified logo 1 by removing the body and replaced the antennas with just a set of bass clef making it a little more subtle yet still resembling the antennas of a butterfly. I added grey to my colour palette and used a gradient effect on the butterfly and included an outline using width profile 2 on Illustrator in hope to add more dimensions to it. I also changed the thickness and colour of my name in logo 2 to increase readability. I also managed to come up with my business card for the consult in Week 12 and decided on using Hoefler Text as my typography. (Figure C).   
Tumblr media
                                                          Figure C
Some comments I received were that despite the background complementing the logo, more dimensions and contrast could be added. Also, my tutor advised me to remove the circle of words around the butterfly and to include those in my resume instead and how the front could be as simple as having the logo and my name below the logo. With these feedbacks I started to work on my final draft for the final critique in week 13. 
The logo was kept the same and I then managed to craft my business card (Figure D) and resume (Figure E) with the feedback received.
Tumblr media
                                                       Figure D 
This is the finalised version of my business card that I presented for the critique. I decided to go with a relatively simple design and added borders to create more dimensions. I tried to keep the colours of the background and borders to be the same and experimented with the opacity and different arrangements of the colours within the gradient. 
Tumblr media
                                                     Figure E
As for my resume (Figure E), I went with a similar concept as my business card by using the gradient borders. I decided to split the resume into half to prevent it from looking too plain and wordy. I also tried to keep the concept of it consistent with my brand’s concept with the use of gradients and the same colour palette to build a stronger brand identity. Some comments received from my classmates and tutor included how they liked the consistency of the visual elements used and how the whole concept is relatively simple. Some comments on the resume included how the second page of the resume seems cluttered at the top due to some misalignment with the butterfly. There were also comments on how the butterflies may seem distracting and thus I managed to reduce the opacity and size of it. 
Tumblr media
                                                         Figure F
This is the revised version of my resume based on the feedback and advice (Figure F). 
I have also finalised my logo guidelines, colour palette and typography guidelines (Figure G). I ended up changing my fonts to Avenir and Garamond Premier Pro as I felt that they complemented better with the concept and each other as well given how they are a Serif and Sans-serif font pairing. 
Tumblr media
                                                        Figure G
Overall, this final project was really interesting and eye opening as it really made me explore and understand more about my own identity and the elements that it encapsulates. Through this project, I have also learnt that there are many unique ways one can express their own brand identity through the use of different colour palettes, signs, symbols and concepts. These elements work together to create a brand identity through the consistent usage of similar colours, signs, symbols and even patterns such as the gradients that were included and repeated in my brand guide throughout. They are also the factors that differentiates one from another as each concept has a unique identity that can only be expressed from the individual’s characteristics and personality. There were also some difficulties faced during the process of trying to convey and express these values and symbolisms completely due to the different interpretations different people have of different signs and symbols. However, this can be resolved through the different comments and advice given by my classmates and tutor as it really aided the refinement process a lot.

Hi! I was wondering if you could do a riverdale fic for me where jughead has a really bad migraine and has to be looked after by Kevin, Betty and Veronica as Archie is away at a football game? Thanks x
(Anon I feel like u can secretly read minds..bc I love writing the gang in a caretaking scenario!! Writing B, V and K are my soft spots bc they’re all too precious??This was hella fun!! Thanks for the prompt!)
Sometimes it was all a bit too much for Jughead.
Stress often lead to splitting migraines, and any sort of sensation seemed to be too much for him. A sensory overload, if you will. He couldn’t quite hang out with the gang by Sweetwater River because noise, and social interaction, and he couldn’t go back to the Andrews because Fred Andrews was watching a soccer game which Archie informed him before leaving was intense. Again, noise.
So Pops was the only other option he had. Jughead knew the schedule and the influx of customers by heart. It was always quiet on a Tuesday, 2pm.
Normally, Jughead would hide any ailments of course, but if he had to tell anyone, it was Archie. Who was away on a three day Away game for some of spring break. So Jughead opted to tell no one.
Sometimes he hated himself for it, because in a sense he was doing it to himself. He had friends who cared and valued him, but there was always that stupid part of himself when everything was just fine that told him otherwise. Perhaps it was the crippling fear of rejection, or perhaps despite priding himself in the fact that he was different, he secretly longed to be just like everyone else. Perhaps it was a part of him that thought he couldn’t be loved, that he didn’t deserve it.
However, despite all the bullshit in his life, so much so that Jughead was teetering close to completely giving up, there was always a small inkling of hope.
Whether that was a small smile, an invite to whatever, or the ever so generous Pop Tate.
“Headache, Jug?” Pop asked softly, an absolute godsend, knowing not to further agitate his ever growing migraine.
Jughead snapped back into reality, realising his slumped position over his very dim laptop, hands clutching his head protectively. He managed a very slight smile.
“Just a little bit,” Jughead managed to croak out.
The older man slid , as well as a nice cold glass of water.
“Here you go bud,” He said quietly, offering him a small smile.
“It must be that wonderful brain of yours, a  minor setback to all the wonderful things it can do,” he cooed, hoping his kind words could somehow alleviate the pain he was sure the younger was feeling.
He didn’t even know how he grew fond of this kid–perhaps it started when he was only about 10 years old, bringing his much younger sister without any parents. He hadn’t said anything initially, just expecting they thought they were being cool kids by being there without parents, but when it kept happening Pop understood his diner was an escape. His sister was always happy–while her older brother just kept looking sadder as the time went on. Soon enough her older brother wasn’t a kid anymore, losing that childhood innocence far too soon. Perhaps it was the fact that Jughead had grown up too soon that made Pop slightly protective.
His concern grew further when Jughead started coming alone–no sister or no Archie Andrews, and then he started staying later, as long as he could before he would leave. On a few occasions, Pop would let him stay the night despite the protests. He couldn’t find the heart to kick him out, when he had the same kind of thing happen to him in his youth. He’d only hoped he could be there for the kid.
Jughead cracked a grin despite the pain, “You’re a godsend, Pop, really. Thank you so much.”
As he made his way back to behind the counter, he brought up his records and began making a phone call to the Keller household.
Kevin finished up with the last of the folding, making his way up to his room and putting his own clothes to their respective drawers, hanging up what had to be hung up in the closet. He then carried his father’s carefully folded clothes to his father’s bedroom, leaving the pile on the bed when the phone rang.
Kevin jumped slightly, running down the stairs to answer the mint coloured telephone.
“Hello, Keller household–”
“Hello Kevin? It’s Pop. I’ve got Jughead here who seems to be sick.”
Kevin let out a deep sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. Of course he wouldn’t tell them and he’d get to the point of Pop having to call them over.
“I’m on my way, thanks for letting me know,” Kevin said brightly, and said his goodbyes before putting down the phone. He pulled on his rubber shoes and pulled his phone out of pocket, shooting both Betty and Veronica a text.
Betty looked up from the book she was reading as her phone buzzed. She smiled, expecting some sort of weird meme from Veronica only to see it was a text from Kevin.
Kevin: pop told me that jugs sick and in need of our rescue meet up with me at pops in a bit pls?? xx
Betty jumped out of her bed and quickly stuck in a pretty pink bookmark Polly made for her in 6th grade art class and threw on a pastel purple sweater over her blue t shirt. She chucked on her converse and grabbed her keys, out of her room in seconds.
She giggled quietly to herself, this whole situation just a little bit funny because she felt as if she was some superhero ready to save the day. Like Jughead was some stupid damsel in distress who needed..tissues? head massages? throat lozenges? Kevin didn’t tell her what kind of sickness he had, but whatever he had, she was prepared for it!
Before walking down the stairs she made a short detour to the bathroom, wherein she opened one of the cupboards to pull out her signature pink caretaking bag, which was lovingly handcrafted and curated so she could care for her friends. When she got sick, her friends would all come to her house and take the same bag to take care of her. The bag was a gift given by God.
She rushed down the stairs and quickly yelled at her dad, telling him she was going to Pops with Kevin, which was no lie, and was out of her house before any sort of obligations were made.
Veronica was in the middle of testing out a new eyeshadow palette that Archie had gotten her for her birthday two weeks ago (with Betty and Kevin’s help, obviously) when she got the text. She was excited for what she presumed was a cute dorky text from Betty but was proved wrong by Kevin’s text.
Kevin: jughead’s dumb and he’s sick and we have to save him grab your weapons, the evil (germs?) is at pops
Veronica chuckled softly, and shot a response back before quickly finishing up her eyeshadow (she might as well finish it), and fluffed out her hair, before pulling on a pair of boots and her black jacket.
“Smithers? Will you tell mom if she gets back before me that I’ve gone off to save a dying friend at Pop’s if she wonders where I am??” Veronica laughed as she made her way out of the apartment.
They all arrived roughly at the same time, naturally Kevin was first with a head start, then come Betty and Veronica.
Veronica was ready to burst in and take Jughead by the ear and lightly scold him for not telling them, when Betty pulled her back.
“Wait, Veronica! We need to plan.”
“Plan?! For what?! We just gotta go in there and aggressively take care of him, beat the shit out of whatever’s wrong with him!”
Kevin smirked, “For being that tiny, you really are fuelled with rage.”
“I could end you in a second, you giant tree, and you know it,” Veronica hissed.
Betty shook her head, “No! Not like that. I meant that he’s going to try and deny it obviously, that’s going to happen, but if he’s got a headache, attacking him and being loud isn’t going to help!”
Kevin chuckled, “Sure, of course Betty, but he’s not a monster who will break if he accidentally push the wrong buttons. Let’s stop this and just help the poor guy, yeah?”
The three then made their way inside the diner, immediately spotting a grey beanie poking out from his usual booth.
Jughead was face down on the table, laptop pushed away from him, hands clutching his head protectively.
“Hey, Jughead? It’s Kevin..and uh, Betty and Veronica too,” Kevin said quietly.
Jughead tensed up immediately, sitting up, way too quickly, intensifying his already splitting migraine. He cracked a pained, forced smile as he leaned his head back against the booth cushion.
“Wow, I absolutely adore my fans. What can I do for you?” Jughead quipped, face scrunched up in pain. His voice was strained. He was completely pale, void of any colour. It made his blue eyes pop and look icy, but it also did the same for his bags which seemed even darker than they usually were.
Betty frowned, “No, what can we do for you? What’s wrong, Jug, you look awful.”
Jughead smirked, “That’s a real boost to the self esteem.”
Veronica sighed, “Jughead, you know that’s not what she meant. C'mon, enough with this edge lord emo ‘I don’t feel pain’ crap so we can get you better soon, yeah?”
Jughead shook his head, biting his lip, “Please you guys, I’m fine. Honestly, leave me be.”
The three watched in pity, not knowing how to get through to him.
Suddenly, a sudden wave of burning pain hit his head, and he couldn’t help the hiss and whimper that tore their way out of his throat, against his will. He hated looking so weak in front of his friends, but it hurt too much.
“I’m okay, I’m okay,” Jughead whimpered, voice cracking as eyes squeezed shut and teeth digging deep into his lip. He wasn’t really sure if he was talking to them or reassuring himself.
“Jughead, please, c'mon, what’s wrong?” Kevin pleaded quietly.
Jughead caved in, the pain too much to handle, “My head hurts so much.”
Betty frowned, “Awh, Jug..!”
Veronica smirked slightly, “Have you wrecked your brain trying to find better comebacks when I roast you?”
That little comment managed to make Jughead release a low chuckle, still strained but momentarily distracting him from the pain.
“No, it’s from trying to comprehend the fact that a human as strange and annoying as you can exist, I mean, you must be an anomaly of some sort,” Jughead replied, trying to be funny hoping it would somehow distract him.
Veronica chuckled, “That is the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me.”
Betty tried to hide her amusement, “Okay guys, real talk, how do we fix him up?”
Veronica and Betty sat on the seats in front of him, and took note of the aspirin and water in front of him. Betty suddenly got her bag out and pulled out a cold compress, and laid the compress on Jughead’s forehead.
“Betts, we’re in public!” Jughead said, slightly frantic.
“No ones here, Jug! Well, Dilton Doiley’s reading his zombie apocalypse comic but he’s not going to look up!” Betty protested, to which Jughead gave in to, having no energy to fight.
“Okay, you should drink more of that  water, Jughead,” Veronica cooed.
Jughead sniffled lightly, and nodded to the best of his ability, pressing the glass to his lips and sipping the liquid.
“You must be really dehydrated,” Veronica frowned.
“Is this going to turn into a soft pastel stay hydrated speech or?” Jughead joked, through teeth gritted with pain.
“Okay now, enough jokes,” Betty chuckled.
Kevin took the seat next to Jughead, “Here, I can give you a massage that my mom taught me? I give them to my dad when he gets really stressed and I think it works?”
Jughead let out a noise of relief, and great gratitude, “Kevin, you are a godsend. A gift from the lord himself.”
Kevin chuckled softly, and pressed his fingers towards Jughead’s temples, lightly and gently rubbing them in little circles.
Jughead seemed to instantly relax, his pained expression slowly fading into a more neutral one, his muscles loosening up. He stopped squeezing his hands quite as hard and stopped gritting his teeth.
Kevin smiled in satisfaction, trying hard to not be too prideful of his talent in this particular field. His dad told him time and time again how great he was at destressing, but lowkey thought it was just because he was his dad. Knowing he was helping Jughead reassured him a little bit.
Jughead’s breathing steadied, not asleep but very much relaxed and at peace, although his head still wasn’t completely pain-free. If throbbed slightly, but the gentle and therapeutic movements of Kevin’s hands on his temples soothed it.
Betty giggled very softly, “Kevin! That’s amazing!”
Veronica sighed in relief, the image of her friend in so much pain very unsettling for her. She was glad he was getting better but of course she wouldn’t admit it.
“Now Jones, I hope this is a lesson that you should stop stressing yourself out too much. Get out of that massive brain of yours for two seconds and talk to us, I promise you it’s much better than the edge lord, 2007 emo lone wolf bullshit you’ve been doing,” Veronica said sternly, but her voice soft and kind.
Before Jughead couldn’t even reply, Betty was speaking too.
“Yeah Juggy, talk to us. Stop withdrawing into yourself and internalising everything. You don’t have to tell us everything, but you don’t have to keep hiding things. We’re your friends, we’re here for you to look after you,” Betty said warmly.
Jughead didn’t reply, but his small smile that he gave was enough.

1.Fifty Shades Of Grey:
If you want an ultra-modern kitchen try a monochromatic colour scheme. A good tip when choosing a monochromatic colour scheme is to vary the tones and hues of the colour itself. For example, in this grey kitchen, there is a variation in the grey aspects of the different kitchen accents including the cabinets, counter-tops etc. This gives the effect if visual depth when combined.
2. Pops Of Colour:
If you want your kitchen to look sleek but still have some colour then try out this colour combination of black and yellow. This is a very restrained colour palette and yet a lot can be done with it. The somberness of the uniform black is balanced with vibrant pops of bright yellow on the accents. The minimalistic use of accessories, the open plan of the kitchen and the sleek ebony light fixture provide further visual relief to this kitchen.
3.
Red And Ebony Kitchen Colour Ideas
:
In this aesthetically balanced kitchen the warm red and the cool black match with each other to create a lively yet cool space. This colour combination is perfect for a modern kitchen because of the contrasts in sheen- the super glossy cabinets and the matte ebony countertop makes a deep visual effect. Combining this intense colour with white floors balances the space out and makes for a great design choice.
4. Coral And White:
This is a brighter and more simple version of the classic red and black combination mentioned above. As shown in the picture, the walls and the countertop of the kitchen are white while the steel appliances provide a textural difference when combined with matte coral cabinets. This also neutralises the background and makes the coral accents the star of the kitchen. These design variations are a key element of the modern style. This is one of the most sought after kitchen colour ideas and combinations.
5. Pastel Pink:
This beautiful pastel pink kitchen looks like something out of a fairytale cottage. The monochrome pink livens up the space while the pastel purple creates a pretty contrast effect and stands out. Even over here, different shade variations of pastel pink are used to offer visual depth and richness of texture.
6. Pastel Kitchen Colour Ideas:
If you want a soft muted yet sophisticated look for your kitchen then opt for this pastel colour scheme. These pale and subtle pastels like blush pink and light teal liven up the room but are also not jarring to the eye. The golden accents on the cabinets provide a variation in texture and draw attention the pretty light teal cabinets. The marble floors also provide a fresh new texture and balance the space out in a pleasing manner.
7. Steel And Coral:
This combination of coral and steel also provides an excellent variation in texture. This colour combination is all about sleek sophistication of the steel accents mixed in with vibrant coral. The black neutralises the background and shine the spotlight on the coral cabinets and countertops. The glossy light fixtures are an excellent design feature giving this kitchen a modern and fresh look.
8. Orange And Ebony:
If you want a kitchen that is peppy but is afraid that too much of bright colour will look gaudy then go for this colour combination of orange and ebony. Almost everything in this kitchen is a bright orange except for the solid black countertop. This neutralises the orange and creates a texture variation against the glossy cabinets. The addition of the beautiful fixtures is a statement piece that will further liven up this room and will for sure ba conversation-starter.
9. Eggplant:
This inky eggplant shade is perfect if you want to achieve a royal and elegant look. It is vibrant enough that it livens up the room and subtle enough that it does not look too gaudy. This is one example where a completely monochrome look with no shade variations still looks striking. The golden fixtures add to the royal look and the grey walls even out the whole look. This is one of the newest kitchen colour ideas and combinations since its very unique.
10. Sky Blue Kitchen Colour Ideas:
For a calming and charming look try out this cool shade of sky blue. The white cabinets combined with this shade of sky blue add cheer to the room while also maintaining a subtle look. The steel refrigerator adds an interesting and fresh texture to the kitchen and the sheen contrasts with the matte colours. The checkered square space on the floor is a great design variation which maintains the fresh and modern look. These different design features pull this kitchen together to create a dazzling yet subtle aesthetic.
11. White And Gold:
If you love all-white kitchen colour ideas but don’t want to follow the convention of an all-white kitchen which is trending nowadays, opt for a white and gold kitchen. Keep the white feel with marble countertops and the cabinets of the kitchen island in a monochrome solid colour. Add metallic gold accents like light fixtures, hardware, and accessories to maintain the ethereal look of the kitchen. These design features combine to create a glamourous looking kitchen without being completely white.
12.
Green And Wood
:
If you love all things natural including your kitchen then bring this vibe to your kitchen. This refreshing green and wood theme kitchen colour combination brings the nature inside. You can use any shade of green that you like the best like olive green, leafy green or a pale celery shade and combine it with simple woodwork in wood tone. This creates a charming rustic effect.
13.
Brown Kitchen
Colour Ideas:
More of an earthy person? Then ground your kitchen with various shades of the sand and earth. Instead of going monochromatic and painting the entire kitchen brown you can mix and match the shades and textures by having dark brown paint on the cabinets, simple woodwork while opting for a lighter brown on the walls. Even though it is a sedate colour, it really captures the elegance of this kitchen.
14. Aqua and Wood:
Reinvent gorgeous beaches with this beautiful aqua and sand colour combination. Different shades of aqua appear on the backsplash and the stools while the cabinets are a light woody shade. The wood provides a nice balance between the peppy and bold colour and creates a striking look. The white of the countertops just adds to the beachy effect (white sand anyone?).
15. Purple And Pink Kitchen Colour Ideas:
If you loved playing with dollhouses as a kid and always wanted to have a pretty kitchen just like the ones in the dollhouse then this dazzling pink and purple combination is perfect.  The pink and purple contrast very well against each other while the steel hardware provides the balancing effect and refreshing texture. the contrast is not too bright and is just perfect to create this dazzling kitchen. Plus perfect symmetry is maintained between the two colours which further balances the aesthetic.
16. Aqua, Vermilion And White:
This beautifully invigorating colour combination isn’t generally associated with kitchens. But the effect is amazingly energetic and friendly and definitely the vibe that you want in your kitchen. The key is to try and restrain the palette so that it doesn’t seem juvenile and the key to do that is to keep it simple and let the colour transition cleanly. Add only a few design accents in the bright more pooing colour i.e vermillion. For example, the orange light fixtures immediately catch the eye.
17. Orange And Blue:
This vibrant colour combination of orange and blue soothes and energises the space at the same time. The orange is a bold, peppy shade which is grounded by the calming blue. This reimagination of fire and water is perfect for a modern kitchen as it livens up the space while also keeping it grounded.
18. Blood Red, Grey And Wood:
The combination of blood-red, grey and wood makes the perfect modern kitchen. There are textural contrasts due to the wood and the matte cabinets and countertops. The red and grey combine to give a sleek and contemporary look and the red is colour blocked within the grey. All these design variations are key elements of a modern kitchen.
19. Black And Gold:
The black and gold combine together to give an attractive and glamourous feel to this kitchen. The different shades of black create visual depth while the metallic golden hardware and fixtures dazzle the entire space.  The room has a perfect balance of sleek and glamour while the woodwork balances the space out and provides textural variations.
20. White And Wood Kitchen Colour Ideas:
Another refreshing take on the trendy all-white kitchen is this combination of white and wood. The white cabinets make the kitchen look ethereal and sophisticated while the natural wooden tones give a refreshing vibe. The minimalist accents and backsplashes make this kitchen effortlessly stylish and perfect symmetry is maintained between the wooden tones and the white colour.
