The world has a way of looking at people
Tonight at the Brattle I saw Angela Carter and Neil Jordan's The Company of Wolves (1984) with ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
rushthatspeaks; it was brilliant and I don't know why I haven't seen more criticism constellating it with Dennis Potter's Dreamchild (1985) and Jim Henson's Labyrinth (1986). Terence Stamp is perfectly cast as the Devil in a white touring car, whose headlights through the forest gloom are the double flash of a beast's eyes. Stephen Rea should play more werewolves. So should Danielle Dax. I wish Carter and Jordan had gotten to make the film of Vampirella/"The Lady of the House of Love" they were discussing when she died; I did not actually expect how closely his visuals would translate her prose style, elaborately artificial and bluntly homespun at once. I'd had dinner earlier with spatch at Sapporo Ramen, where I got tantan-men with three kinds of extra seaweed; Rush and I went to Rosebud American Kitchen & Bar after the movie and I got the apple pie I had been wanting all this week of cold and rain. I came home to discover thisbluespirit had made, as part of their gorgeous series of original and other Elements, fanart for Curium from my story "Assignment 96." I'm still not sure about recovery from Arisia, but I've had a really nice evening.

Do you still have a link to it?
No, I'm super tidy about deleting images off my drive. It can frequently get very annoying. It wasn't right for the hair (too short, too styled) anyway. But it was the one shot that had a sharpness too it, so I was a bit regretful about losing it. If you search generic stuff like that, you get a lot of fashion/beauty images, so it's hard to get at something that's got the bit of edge needed for a Transuranic! So I just decided to work from the middle image and match to that.
Google has a lot of images like that, though - I once signed up to do art (a book cover and banner) for a Big Bang and the author had no description of her OC and when I asked was just, "Oh, whatever you think!" And that was when I discovered that putting things like "x female long/short hair" or whatever in Google brings up masses of shots to choose from.
Don't wreck yourself! I'm enjoying this series and am honored to have contributed to it.
Oh, I won't! It's very calming to do, actually. I just started later than I should yesterday and then wanted to finish it before I shut down for the night.
