Little sunshine, the bundle of joy Finally it's the time to bring spotlight for this petite fille. 2009, 2017, and 2018. The gap was quite something, art-wise... but she's basically the same all this time. Build up story and notesI really like creating kids with motif or a theme. Hence, it's not an unusual thing for me to add one or more kids just for the sake of completion for the said theme and then abandon them. Feli was created for that, initially. Back then, when I was immersed in Hiichan, Fleu, and my self-insert OC, I thought something was missing. Something that would work as an ultimate complementary. So, I created Feli for that very purpose. Thus, the four of them somehow become the initial big four... yes, that stupid shitennou theme, though now I use it mainly for referring these four. The big four. I even made some comic strips about them, it's a relic now, however. Everything about Feli is deliberately designed. From her image color, her birthday, her name, her design... yes, basically everything. Like, in image color, Hiichan fills the red department and Fleu fills the green one. Me myself, choosing blue since it's my favorite color, so I assigned that to the self-insert, and there's Feli with yellow, since yellow is one of primary color. However, now her color sometimes turns from yellow to pink interchangeably. On another note, I never thought much about Feli story-wise. Due to her initial purpose as a mere complementary, I didn't give her any backstory, unlike to Fleu or Hiichan. I had ever contemplated to make her a freshman of a high school once and she was belong to a detective club. But that was merely fleeting thoughts that never been finalized. She was forgotten long before. But, I decided to revamp her again for the Potterverse, and, well, there she is now. When revamping her for Potterverse, I initially almost assigned her to Mahoutokoro, due to her name. Feeling somehow iffy and remembering that she has western name, I moved her straight to Beauxbatons, since she's well-adjusted there, I think. I also quickly came up with her basic background. I've always wanted to dress her in frilly clothes since the very first time. That's why, when revamping her, making her having lolita-ish fashion sense is a must. Although drawing her is killing my hand, I don't mind yo. Now though, it became more fixed because she's essentially the most stylish among the kids. I really have fun in dressing her up. I do. NameHer initial name was Shiori Nara. However, due to the Phenotype Stereotype looks she has, it feels weird to give her that name. So, I changed her name into something European/Western, along with Fleu, hence Felicia. Her last name was Viersizzen, however. It's the alteration from Shiori as I wrote it with "four season" as the meaning, referring to her status as the ultimate complementary. I have disdain toward her old last name HAHA, so when I revamped her, I chose one that somehow sounds normal, hence Morra. Along the way, I also added Gisella as her middle name since, I don't know, I like making her all girly and dolly. Back then, the reason I chose Felicia because it was the fandom name of fem!Italy from APH hahaha. But then when revamping her, it gave me idea to have her came from said country. Besides, I like the Felicia name genuinely. Because it means happiness and she's basically the embodiment of happiness. When talking about her, I usually call her as Feli for short. In universe, it's only Kay who calls her that when referring to another person. They call each other darling, though, in person. People in the family, such as Zreyn or Mishka, would usually call her as Gisella. Feli, in return does the same as well. BirthdayI did say she is designated on everything, including her birthday. Since Hiichan has her birthday on 10-ish and Fleu is on 20-ish, I opted to set Feli to a single number. Same with the birth month. I took three month gaps for every child. Hence, there are Hiichan in January, Fleu in March—well, almost April, though, me in July, and then Feli in October. Subsequently, it also goes to their signs motif. Hiichan is Capricorn (Earth), Fleu is Aries (Fire), me is Cancer (Water), and Feli is Libra (Air). Though now, my self-insert is replaced by Kai. That was the only significant meaning, at first. However, lately it's kind of funny to realize that her birthday, October 4, coincidentally can be read as ten-shi (10–4), which means angel in Japanese... Yes, this kiddo is such an angel. It's befitting her. I'm so proud of her hhhhhhh *covers face* PersonalityNow come to think of it, she sure has gone through quite a change... still, that :D default expression remains, however. She wasn't a blank slate as I have some plot bunnies for her, but I didn't think much about her personality back then. Except that she's always curious and excitable. So, I turned it up to eleven in the revamped version, along with giving her the code-switching tendency hahahahaaaa. Feli is really fun to tamper with. She's very cheerful and positive, but neither in an obnoxious way nor having ulterior motive. Admittedly, I did think to experiment with her like, making her have a dark ugly side in her personality. But in the end, I just can't bring myself to it because she's too pure and... it just makes me being the bad guy for her hahahahaha sob The only thing that is borderline ugly from her personality... maybe the fact that she can be utterly clingy to people. She... can be whiny as well but not as far as making tantrum or such. Still a good girl. To make it up for that, however, I did make her quirky. Like... she has this kind of particular train of thoughts running on her head. Yes, she's kinda screwed on the head but not in a negative way. Just a little bit eccentric and artsy. She looks graceful on the outside but she's far from that, actually, when one knows her better. All in all, she's just a simple girl who has her own world and positive outlook at that. In short tho, I'd always imagine her as the fusion of Art and L from the SM! verse hahahaha I even make her as their kids in The Sims. Relation to other kidsFrom the very first time when revamping her, I really want to pair her up with Kay. They have... this kind of romantic two girls friendship, and that never changes. Yet, on the other hand, I don't want to make them linked to each other romantically. So, to avoid jail-baiting haha and make myself satisfied with the prerequisite, I make them as cousins. Yeah, they are the type of kissing cousins, literally, and very close at that. They do think dearly of each other, but that's purely platonic. And they have healthy relationship as well. She... does get close with Zreyn and Mishka, as her other cousins, to some extent. But I think she clings much to Kay since there are some things that make them relatable to each other. As for other kids, I really like her dynamic with Phillia, by being fellow cloudcuckoolanders haha. She does interact with the boys, too, like Tohma and Tilla, but that is covered more on the future timeline. I kinda want to see how she interacts with Rayne, but I seemingly never find the thread to connect them plausibly. End noteWhenever I'm dabbling with this particular kid, she fills my heart with warmth. I like her pure and bubbly persona, and that's as clear as the sky, without any subversion beneath it. I don't ever like to exaggerate the quality of my own children or praising them excessively actually. I hate coming off as someone overproud or smothering. But... she's just... She comes out naturally to make me do so haha. Uhm, I always thought of her as someone who brings joy, so I hope, she can brings joy or at least can lift up the spirit of anyone who sees her. That's it. [Last updated on April 2020]
