If The Next Chapters were an actual game, I imagine that the Choose Your Appearance menu would be taken one step further by adding in customization. The player gets to customize our protagonist’s hairstyle, clothing, and accessories, which emphasizes the themes of finding your own creativity and doing things your way. As I said earlier, this character isn’t meant to be a successor to Jesse.
If our main character is a girl/is fem-presenting, her name is Ramona. But if he’s a boy/is masc-presenting, then his name is Ramone. They’re Black, since they’re influenced by some good friends and classmates of mine. And, the way I see it, their eye color options would range from black to brown. As you may have seen in my previous drawings, I prefer to draw Ramona.
Jayden’s gender depends on Ramone/a’s, too. If it’s Ramona, Jayden is a girl/fem as well. But if it’s Ramone, Jayden will be a boy/masc, too. Either way, they’re gonna be gay.
All this being said, you guys are welcome to draw Ramone/a however YOU perceive them. This AU is all about creativity, like I said! (Just keep everything I said in mind, please.)
