She's Just Awkward In Her Facial Expressions And It Makes Her Completely Average Face Less Appealing To Those Around Her - Blog Posts

“Homely and the Dunce”

I'll let you decide which is which. I was originally going to start off with a canon HA! ship image, but I really wanted to draw Debora. So you get her and the rare character of Edmund made. I kind of like the hairstyle I've given 16-year-old Edmund, it almost makes him semi-decent looking. However, it could be just because I chose him to do him in a side profile and not do his less than appealing 3/4 angle. I'm being too mean to Edmund though. There are worse looking fifth graders than Edmund, at least in my opinion. Anyway, here's some context for this image. So basically it's a day or two after their first introduction to each other. In between that time Debby has convinced herself that Edmund didn't really mean it when he said he'll see her later or something along the lines of that. She assumed that he was saying the thing everybody says but doesn't really mean and Edmund won't ever pay her any mind ever again. On one hand, it saddened her, but on the other hand, she figured it was probably for the best because at least she didn't have the pressure of keeping a friendship that barely started. low and behold on Monday, Edmund doesn't waste his time on going up to casually say hi to his new friend. At that instant, Debora is a flurry of mixed emotions. Mostly it's internal screaming and contemplating whether to lock herself in the bathroom before she does or says something stupid. Unfortunately, it's too late for she already performed her world famous, super forced, obviously fake smile in her attempt to act "normal". The poor boy has no idea what he has gotten himself into.
