They are all so stylish!!!
I would literally wear anything that Xenia wears, looks so comfy and classic.
And I appreciate your admiration for the duck beak, it is an amazing accessory, and Penelope is very cute. Also wandering if you named her after the very underrated Christina Ricci movie? She was really cute in that too.
Prepare yourself for a longer reply than you bargained for!
I dress like Xenia in real life, which would be fine if I didnāt live in an infamously hot place and do it year-round. Iām glad you like Penelope, I think sheās adorable
I have so much fun picking out things for her to wear. I hadnāt heard of that movie, but I just looked it up and it sounds interesting!
All of my names originate from Greek mythology.
Elysium: Paradise
Lethe: Could be either oblivion personified, or a river the dead would drink from to forget their past. I always name my characters Lethe in games on a new game+ run. I used it here on my first playthrough because up until recently I was playing New Leaf, which is still Animal Crossing. In NL I had two towns, the seconds was also an Elysium with a Lethe mayor. Since I wanted to name my main Lethe, I chose the name Elysium again for the island and decided to go with a Greek theme for any future names.
Xenia: Rule of hospitality. It was really important to people at that time because they were always suspicious that the gods might sneak in to mingle.
Thetis: A sea nymph. Also, the mother who kind of famously botched the whole immortality experiment she tried on her son Achilles, but Iām not sure that will come up at all in my version of Elysium.
Echo: A nymph cursed to only be able to repeat sounds (or in this case: animal crossing design choices) of others. I actually really like Echoās myth, even though it is kind of a bummer. For some reason I keep dressing my Echo up in these really bright and cutesy outfits. So sheās a vibrant bummer, which I like to think helps.
Penelope: This one is quite a stretch. Penelope is well known as the wife of Odysseus. There are also a few interpretations bouncing around saying that she was (possibly) given a different name at birth but at some point, for some reason, she fell or was thrown into an ocean or off a cliff and was saved by a group of duck-ish birds (penelops perhaps). After that she gained the name Penelope (maybe). The only other duck-shaped beak Greek myth I could think of is that one with Leda and the swan, but I didnāt pick that one for several reasons. A: do swans even have yellow beaks? And more importantly B: the story of Leda and the swan doesnāt really have the vibe I was going for with my cutesy town where I live among a bunch of things that look like animals. Not the right vibe at all.
*Edit: I just looked it up and swans
do have yellow beaks. Yellow-ish anyways. Some of them. My second point still stands though!
"Penelope is a duck beak I sometimes dress up to take out for a walk" hahaha omg
super cute outfits, I especially like Xenia's looks! can't wait to try out all the cozy coats & sweaters in the fall!
I love cooler weather fashion. Iām restraining myself on Lethe and limiting her to seasonally appropriate clothes, but on Xenia Iāve thrown caution (common sense) to the wind!
Iām still excited to try out some of the cute fall/winter clothes I have sitting in Letheās storage after summer ends. All of the outfits I've seen you post are great. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the fall clothes!
Your outfits are so stylish!! Mine is always the same LMFAO because I'm so lazy to set up a wand or carry a wand in my inventory... also, I love your display picture on here. It reminds me of like, a Victorian Era type of thing. And it's so cute! ;~; I love all the updates you give
Thank you very much! Up until recently I was doing that too. Then I started changing my outfit every day just for fun.
