I like her! Just had a question... How is her hair blonde? Does she bleach it?

Nah, she gets it from her dad.

Ah, okay, I was confused because the gene responsible for blonde hair is recessive, so unless both parents have the gene then it won't represent itself in their offspring.

But I suppose her mom could be a carrier for the blonde gene.. Just seemed unlikely. That said, I suppose it doesn't really matter, I'm just a genetics geek.

Yeah, Landry's just carrying the recessive trait for the blonde, like you said. Otherwise, Lily'd have brown hair like her mom.

Yes I thought about it. Canonically they're in the US, Louisiana specifically, so it's not too weird/unlikely for Landry to carrying a blonde gene if you sort of think about it*. >_> Also, she's (Lily) partially based people I've met/known. On that note, both of Lily's parents have/had brown** eyes. It's just that none of this is mentioned or brought up in PP itself because it's irrelevant in-story.

*Spoiler I'm vaguely referencing slavery
**Lily's dad did something to himself that changed what his eyes look like. Originally, they were brown.

This asshole's done >8|

I'm well aware that shading is complete bullshit

Bad news: I obviously didn't finish on time

Good news: my computer was infected and it's now fixed

Good news Part Deux: I still plan to probably finish this

Eheh, I didn't finish my NaNoRenO either. ^^; I'm glad you're still planning on finishing though!
