story sketch: ayla's change [update: 05-19-2011]

[meeks]

In this scene from aldersprig's series Addergoole Aelgifu (Ayla), a hitherto unusually named, but otherwise normal human, leans on her lover, Ioanna for support when she finds herself with rabbit ears, bunny feet, and goatlike horns after her Change.

This needs comments too!

Poor Alya, she looks so alarmed! Which is appropriate.

I'm not sure the walls are cinder-block, but I'm also not sure what textures you could put there instead.

Yeah, the blocks are based on my old dorm room more than anything. I'm stlll a few chapters behind, so I don't know if Ioanna's room has been described yet. Maybe the actual scene will suggest something better for the walls.

I get the impression of posh elegance in the halls, but I'm less sure about the students' rooms. Possibly poured concrete?

I'm so bad at description! The only time the rooms are ever described at all is "like a high-class hotel room" or something like that in one of Shahin's Book One chapters (the "what's wrong with this place" scene)

That being said, I picture them like RIT dorms - that helps you not at all, Meeks - in that it's poured concrete, painted calm neutral colors.
