OCstory:Eudora - Tumblr Posts
Eudora is one of my current most drawn OCs. Her origin story may end up as a one-shot comic/graphic novel.
Eudora currently is a fashion designer/blogger who befriends young fashionistas Blanche and Miriam who she hires for a zine production and fashion shoots. Eudora never reveals her age, just that she “just celebrated her 29th birthday” no matter when you ask her. She is quirky and mostly carefree. She is a quiet introvert. Enjoys snack/convenience food. Sodas, bottles juices, yogurts, chips, ramen cups, etc. only cooks simple meals for self, like rice cooker and fried egg. Her blog has enough followers that she is able to earn some sponsorships and ad revenue. Despite this, still occasionally takes odd jobs and quiet part time gigs to keep afloat.
When the blog was starting out eudora blogged in a way that the reader would imagine a certain person was the writer. Eudora at the time looked very plain. Did not dye hair, did not use coloured contacts, etc. as the blog grew, eudora suspected that if anyone were to see her irl they would be disappointed that she looked so plain so she started to make her own clothes, mostly altering to her tastes. Then she started cutting her hair. Then the contacts, then glitter, then hair dye…. Suddenly when she looked in the mirror she saw herself. She became confident enough to start wearing things in public and getting more and more social. She finds that too much social activity is very hard for her, she goes through scenarios of disappointed fan meet ups, of becoming overwhelmed and questioning why would she want to stick out ever? Started to ‘regress’ when finding Blanche/Miriam who tell Eudora how much her blog helped them find themselves and they encourage Eudora to do what feels best for her and they want to be there to support it.
She eventually finds a happy medium of meet ups and shows while living alone, working with Blanche and Miriam on creating blogs, videos, and a clothing line for weirdos.
Eudora typically describes her fashion as fairy kei. Miriam would be close to uchuu-kei (special occasions) and pastel space-goth (daily wear). Blanche is ishoku-hada and kawaii monster vibes.
