Say bye-bye to James, AKA Mr. Lovely Locks. As some of you may have guessed, his design is basically a gender-flipped me. Not that he's intended to be a self-insertion; when I started drawing "Requiem with a Birthday Cake" back in '15 I was very insecure about drawing...well, everything! I simplified matters by using myself as the model for the guard; that way I could do poses and expressions in the mirror. As for his name, before I started this arc I asked my mother what names she and Dad had thought about in case I was a boy. The first one she mentioned was Scott. Um, that wouldn't have worked, for obvious reasons. The second was James, and I liked that. Then I explained that I was not planning any lifestyle changes; this was just for a character. Heh.
