Description random little Arielle info..blob.. thing. hoping to do something less blobby tomorrow.

while reading a webcomic forum i was reminded of one of my many pet-peeves: people continuously mis-naming or mis-spelling a character's name. it's one thing when you hear a name and don't get the spelling correct, but when you're READING the name over and over and you still can't be bothered to get it right, then that's another matter.

so, here you go. it's Arielle. not Ariel. thanks.

the 'written' font is [link] who has made several nice handwriting fonts if anyone's interested. her speaking font is 'Vampiress'.

Arielle/image are mine. please no taking/using char/pic w/o permission, etc. microns, photoshop. faving w/o commenting is boo, yadda.

i wonder if her cursing makes this mature.

though this seems completely unrelated, I'm fav-ing this for two reasons - one: my boyfriend loves coffee, two: my boyfriend loves the little mermaid. So somehow they both came together in this image/title and made me laugh.

*claps* good job, as always

sharkbyte3827 [2008-08-17 16:48:53 +0000 UTC]

I beg to differ [link] . An Ariel she is definatly not, but a mermaid???

Yeah I think its the first five letters of her name that get stuck in peoples heads most of the time. They see the word 'Ariel' and the brain may block out the 'le' by mistake. But I think this statement will, if not perminatly, help to stick her name from now on.

I hope you keep drawing your blobby headed characters X3, I love them like this, especially for Arielle and her single little fang. Although if you do stop to think about it, she couldn't be a mermaid in the first place, since vampires cannot cross running water and she'd look rediculous with a seashell bra and fish tail.

And about putting mature content because of the word, I dont know. I dont remember a deviation being removed because of that.

Sadly, its even worse when its your real name people can't say or spell right, how hard is Tabitha, really?

And don't even get me started on the various misspellings of Tabikat that I've had sent to my e-mail FROM my DA account.

Are people just too lazy to add the extra "le" to her name?

I agree coffee is not a myth, but caffeine is because the fact it promises to keep you awake is a giant LIE!! It's a sleep aid for me.

I like her mouth movement, I wish my jaw was that flexible
