Hiya my lovely readers! I hope you’re all doing well ❤️
I wanted to come on here and ask for your thoughts about a possible change I’ve been considering for my Thirst for Admiration series.
Right now, Emma Watson is my headcanon for my main character, Harper Thorne, as shown in the cast list and book covers. However, after watching the Stranger Things finale, I unexpectedly started picturing Robin Buckley (played by Maya Hawke), specifically her season 5 look, as Harper instead. Not just because she’s canonically a lesbian in the series, but because she actually matches the way I originally imagined Harper when I first started writing my Alice Cullen fanfic.
I know this might seem random or a little silly, and it’s totally okay if you don’t see the vision or prefer things to stay the same. I also know many of you would probably tell me to just choose whatever feels right for the story, which I really appreciate! And you’re absolutely free to imagine your own headcanons for Harper, Willow Cullen, Dakota Black, or any of my OCs. Still, I’d really love to hear your opinions before I decide anything.
Do you think Maya Hawke as Robin Buckley fits Harper? Can you picture her alongside Alice Cullen and the rest of the Twilight universe, dealing with vampires, werewolves, the supernatural elements (especially given she already deals with the supernatural in Stranger Things already haha), and everything else in this story?
Please comment your thoughts below, I’d really appreciate the feedback!
Also, I’m hoping to have Chapter 23 of the sequel Thirst for Revival out soon. I’ve been dealing with some health stuff while balancing work and school, but I promise I’m doing my best to get it finished as soon as I can. Thank you all so much for your patience and for the love and support you’ve shown this series. It truly means more to me than you know
Thank you all again, and I can’t wait to hear what you think!
