Description *Drops from exhaustion* Ahhhh! Back! Neck! Wrists! Eyes! Hurt! Dammit! *Finds the strength to get up* So, this took about four hours to make, with the copying and pasting thing, and also getting the coloring right as well. But! It was all worth it because it is done now! SO YAY!

Now, Baby-Bat, remember a few pictures back that you didn't know why I compared Caroline with Leslie? Well if you think about it, they do look like the types that would pretty much get along and have similar interests. And in my eyes, this is pretty much what I think would have if they were friends. Also, I just have to say, I have read up to Chapter 5 of "Courting Vipers" and can I just say that...Leslie is too damn adorable and funny! XD
I just feel so bad for Luiz, but at the same time, I laugh at his pain! Oh, poor Copper. *Shakes head* You fool...you poor silly fool.

I swear, my favorite part of this story right now is the Snickers thing. And it had me on the floor! I couldn't stop laughing and saying at the same time "THIS FOOL SAID HE NEEDS A SNICKERS! YOU AIN'T YOU WHEN YOU HUNGRY!", so yeah...thanks for giving me the chuckles that I needed, Baby-Bat!

Anyways, back to Caroline and Leslie. I see these two being best friends, because they're both Nice, Generous, and they both love Shopping for clothes (Even though Care makes her own). I'm sure that there are more traits, I just can't think of any, but I know that these two are similar! So now, I want your Permission, Baby-Bat! Please...can Caroline and Leslie be friends? Please! *Puppy dog eyes* I'd really like that. And I know that Care would like that too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now! with that all out of the way, let me go ahead and explain what exactly is happening in the panels above. 

Panel 1:

So in this one, Les is completely in love with Carrie's style. Hair, Outfit, Makeup (Even though she doesn't wear makeup but it looks like she does). She tries to convince Care into taking up Modeling, but Carrie doesn't think of herself as the model type. Yes, she does have the look and potential, but she doesn't really see herself as adjusting to the lifestyle of a model. Because they have to go through a lot of things, such as going through diets, showing up early for appointments, making sure that their weight is on point, and always know which outfit and makeup is appropriate for which Event. I mean, Care has to balance being a girlfriend, a sister, and also being a superhero of Gotham and Arkham at the same time. She usually has everything balanced on point, but being a model will just take up most of her time. Even if she did, she honestly doesn't think she'll be able to keep up with the other competition even if she tried. Plus...she's camera shy.

Panel 2:

Now in this one, Les lets Carrie borrow one of her dresses for a double date tonight with Luiz and Harvey (Which Leslie planned at the last minute). Care isn't very comfortable at first wearing it, because she's used to wearing casual outfits (She makes and wears nothing but casual. All the time!) and she's not used to showing parts of her body this much either. Her self-confidence drops on low, but Leslie gives her the confidence she needs by talking her out her doubts and then Care finally agrees to wear it. How Les go Care the confidence she needed? Well...most of the conversation was mostly about what Harvey was going to do to her afterwards right after the date was over, which is kinda why Care is blushing right now. I'm not gonna go into any detail, because I'm pretty sure everybody has figured it out by now. Y'all Nasty! XD
But, Les also mentioned how beautiful Care looks regardless!

Panel 3:

And for the last one! Les asks Care when her birthday is (Which would be the first day of Winter) so she could take her on the greatest shopping-spree ever! (Even though she might do that anyway!) Afterwards, she asks how old is she, and Care replies that she is exactly 24. Completely shocked, Leslie can't believe that she just said that number. Because to her, Caroline looks very young, thinking that she was her age. She praises Caroline on looking so young, and even though that she doesn't look like it, Caroline is a little annoyed. She sometimes hates it when people point out her many perfections, because she doesn't think of herself as perfect, and she doesn't want to be perfect because nobody is perfect! But Care just smiles and replies nicely, because she doesn't take her frustrations out on her friends or people she cares about.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
So yeah...that's about it.
I'm still waiting on that offer of friendship between these two, Baby-Bat! XD


Caroline belongs to Me!

Uh-oh! You've already read the first two chapters? Better be careful! I've had people tell me that Courting Vipers tends to suck them in to the story!

And I'm totally cool with them being friends~. Leslie seems to have a habit of just declaring people her friends anyway as it is, so I have a feeling that she might have decided to befriend Caroline with or without my permission. Glancing at your blurb about the second panel, that's actually surprisingly accurate on many levels. Leslie WOULD insist on Caroline borrowing a dress (especially if she didn't have one to fit the occasion perfectly) from her wardrobe, but Les also has a tendency to constantly try to talk confidence into the people she considers friends. Even if she herself struggles with it at times, Leslie has a very firm belief that even if you have to grin-and-bear-it sometimes and fake confidence, you will in fact fool yourself and that false confidence can become legit confidence. (Leslie has some interesting personal philosophies.) Not to mention, she's also always going to tell her friends they're beautiful. And she doesn't mean it in a shallow way, though it usually takes people a while to start to realize that when Leslie says that they're beautiful no matter what, it's because she sees them for what's on the inside shining through.

>> I'm also not surprised at Les commenting on Caroline's age. Believe it or not, as she gets older, Leslie gets a little high-strung trying to keep herself looking younger than she actually is when she hits her sixties and Luiz STILL looks like he's thirty-something. So that's actually rather fitting. (And she would likely encourage anyone she thinks has the gift for it by telling them she thinks they'd be good at modeling. I doubt she'd actually try to push Caroline into it though, as she knows from what she's heard that the modeling industry is cutthroat and ruthless; after all, her eldest brother Steven modeled for a couple of summers, and he was able to give her horror stories from firsthand experience!)

And finally, I do have to say I'm extremely happy that you put both girls in different outfits in each panel! ^^~ Leslie's the OC that I love drawing in different outfits (and I try not to draw her in the same outfit too often) so I'm very happy to see that you stuck to that and gave her and Caroline a different outfit for each instance!

Well I'm up to Chapter 5 now, and it's too late! I'm already sucked into this story and I can't wait to read the rest! XD

Yay, Friendship! ^^
I wonder what her brothers will think of Carrie? I think Tony might like her, but I'm not too sure about Steven though.

Welp...now I have a sudden urge to draw these two again. This is your fault, Kourt! It's your fault that you made the most adorable looking OC ever! And now I don't want to stop drawing her! XD

And yeah, it wasn't really that hard to come up with outfits for these two to wear (I just so happen to be looking up this years Autumn trends on Google at the time.) on top of that, I didn't feel like re-drawing and re-coloring the same outfit again and again. So yeah...but still though, Thanks!

XD Then by all means, keep going! I've got up to chapter 8 posted, as well as the first two chapters of its sister-fic, Being Human.

Hmm, good question! Tony is usually pretty chill and laid-back about most people Leslie hangs out with. He's pretty laid-back in general (he's not at all what people expect, which is a stereotypical dumb jock; Tony breaks that stereotype) but if he learns of the seasonal sisters and their powers, he'll freak out a little bit. Once he calms down and gets used to the idea, he'll be okay again, but he has a very protective older brother instinct toward anyone he considers a younger sibling, not just Leslie. So superhuman powers freak him out a bit until he learns someone doesn't mean him harm. I think as long as Caroline is willing to be patient with how Tony has to work through that, then they'll get along alright.
\Steven though... >> Steven's a hard guy to read, even for his siblings. I think for the most part he would be indifferent toward Caroline, which is actually pretty good when it comes to how Steven treats anyone his siblings interact with. He's the family jerk... (for now, anyway. I have BIG plans to break Steven of that and give him some character growth. *wrings hands Cruella style*)

Well, I'm certainly not objecting! X3 Leslie has a tendency to grow on ya like that!

I don't blame you there!! D; Nice touch, looking up outfit trends! And you're welcome!

Wow, Kourt, Thanks! You gave me more ideas on what to draw now! Now I'm probably gonna draw Caroline using her Winter Powers while Tony freaks out in the background. Yep...this is gonna be funny! XD

XD You're welcome. And that sounds like it could definitely prove fun! If you need a reference for Tony's colors, just take a gander at what I use as the preview image for Being Human.

That's really cute! ^^ I bet Kourtney would love it! And your art has definitely improved!

I like Caroline's cheek heart in the first panel. Heh. Lol

Thanks, Harm-Harm!
Yeah, I had to add something to make Caroline a little more cuter. ^^
