Quentin Tarantino sat down on Bret Easton Ellis' podcast and spoke without hesitation. He said the new YA franchise feels like a copy of a Japanese classic. #BattleRoyale #HungerGames #plagiarismdebate #QuentinTarantino #SuzanneCollins #YAdystopia

ID: Closeup on Shays (as an Ugly) face, with a rip with edges like a glitched screen going diagonally through it, showing Tallys face underneath
ID: Shays face as a Pretty, with Tally as a Pretties face behind a rip again
ID: Special Shay, with Special Tally under the ripped picture
Did these for a fic cover, showing Tally and Shays interconnected arcs and so on, but thought they looked too cool to not share
The way bluesky arranges pictures *really* does not work well here; click for better view

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing of Dr. Cable standing in front of a injured Maddy, knife in one hand, blood on her nails on the other, in fighting stance. Cable wears her lab-coat esque robe, but it is ripped and dirty. Maddy wears a sneak suit, but it is damaged on the side of her stomach where she holds her hand over an injury, and glitching out. (Both of them are middle aged black women).
Keep thinking about how Laverne Cox noticed Dr. Cable being described as a wolf doesn't just mean she's brutal and ruthless, but also fiercely protective
Then I remembered I still had an AU where Maddy is a Special too..

Found another fridge horror: Shay canonically choose how she looks as a Special - but forces Tally back for surgery, so Tally doesn't.
So either Dr. Cable chose, or Shay. Shay would be both darkly romantic and absolutely disturbing...

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing of Tally and Shay dancing on a party, with flickering lights and other people in the background. Shay is a thin but curvy east Asian woman with tied back black hair, wearing a suit vest with no shirt underneath and a glittering suit pants. She smiles at Tally. Tally is a petite white woman with long blonde hair, wearing a white dress with golden straps at a cutout on her back, outlining her broad hips. The viewer only sees her back.
Saw a woman wearing this outfit and thought about Shay starting to remember her old self, starting to dress just the slightest bit more like herself, but before she starts spiraling

ID: Screencap from Netflix “Uglies” adaptation. Tally and Shay walking beside each other, both in futuristic school uniforms, both carrying hoverboards under their arms. The viewer looks at them from the side. Tally is a pointy-faced white girl with messy dark brown hair, Shay is a East Asian girl with short black hair, also rather pointy faced, thin and short.
ID: Closeup on Tally up to slightly below the shoulders, looking devastated and terrified. Dr. Cable is standing behind her, her face out of view but her chest and her gloved hands on Tallys shoulders visible. In the background a clean, futuristic room is visible.
ID: Closeup on Dr. Cables face, looking particularly cold, angular and intimidating. She is a middle aged black woman with straight, blonde hair, and her unnaturally grey eyes make her look even more intense. In the background forest and one of her henchmen are visible.
ID: Showing Tally from behind, running towards the edge of the hoverboard park, with futuristic, twirled, airy towers in the background. Tally is a short, thin white girl with messy dark brown hair, wearing a futuristic school uniform including a skirt.
I had accepted I would never see #Uglies on screen..
Didn't really go how teen me had hoped. But by now I'm still glad to see all actors embody my heroes so well, get into contact with other fans & get new ideas about a story following me since 15 years

During Shays Special Surgery, she sees different ways her and Tally could have encountered each other.

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing. Tally and Shay sit outside, both holding a wrapped present (it isn't clear who gifted it and who recieves), and holding each others arms with the other hand, smiling. They are both young woman with short hair, a wiry built, tattoos, and self-harm scars, but Tally is white, with battered clothes, while Shay is East Asian and wears pristine futuristic clothes. There is a futuristic city and the sea in the background.
Happy birthday Tally and Shay (well, in around 300 years...)
Headcanon that not until their 18th birthday they actually celebrate together. 16th obviously bc events of the book, and 17th they still need to process and heal

Screencap of a tumblr post, with the first person writing: "ppl who celebrate fictional character birthdays are annoying pass it on" and the second saying "FUCK this post and happy birthday" and then hastily pasted in "Tally and Shay"
Have to post this here too:

ID: Digitally drawing and colorized portrait of a rather pretty young black man with narrow face, big eyes, a long nose and freckles. He is wearing a coat stitched together from leather, with fur added at the neck and at one shoulder parts of what seems to be broken down debris from our civilization. There is a blurry forest in the background.

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing showing Dr. Cable and one of her henchwomen, General Clayton, sitting on her bed, Clayton behind Cable and rubbing her clit. Cable has her face slightly contorted with pleasure but is touching Claytons shoulder. Clayton looks pleased with herself. Cable is a very curvy, wiry middle aged black woman, Clayton is rather muscular white woman.
Love how this is the most explicit one for this fandom yet but at the same time so tender that I wondered if it's even in character for them #nsfw #EroticFanart #NsfwYuri #femslash #DrCable #Uglies #YADystopia #SciFiNsfw

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing, six portraits up to slightly below the shoulders of Shay. 1. "15 (Uglies), showing her with long, brown braids, green eyes and a pointy face 2. 16 (Pretties), with wavy long hair and bangs, her face now slightly softer, her eyes bigger and copper 3. 16 (Pretties, Specials). Long black hair in a tight braid, red and purple eyes, tattoos all over and angular and intimidating 4. 20 (Extras), shoulder length hair, the upper part tied back, other than that just like the one before 5. 25-30 (between Extras and Youngbloods) Short hair in a relatively flat style 6. 35 (Youngbloods), very short so that all of the hair stands, wearing futuristic armor
Wanted to do a companion piece to (my pre-movie design) Tally over the years and her hairstyle changes (link in comment), but then forgot to publish it
I actually predicted both Shays short hair and her having bangs and waves as a Pretty, lol

ID: Screencap from Netflix "Uglies" adaptation. Dr. Cable standing in the foreground, shown from behind above her shoulder, looking at David, Tally and Maddy trapped in the surgical tanks.
Been open about how much I hate changing the surgical tanks from being creepily medical and claustrophobic bc filled with liquid keeping the body alive to something easier understandable but lesser effective in the long run...
...but this shot still slaps

ID: Shay (as a Special) punching for Dr. Cables head, other hand already pulled in a ready position, but Dr. Cable moved out of the way and used that to step closer to her. Shay is a young East Asian woman with a pointy face, undercut, tattoos all over any visible body part, and wearing a tank top and long, loose trousers. She has self-harm scars on her arms. Dr. Cable is a middle aged black woman, both wiry and very curvy, angular face, intense grey eyes, hair in a braid and wearing a white sports bra and short leggins. Both of them are sweaty and mildly bruised.
Testing the prototype
Man, the dynamic between Shay and Dr. Cable at the end of Pretties and beginning and middle of Specials is so uncomfortable and interesting

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing showing two girls standing beside each other, broad stance but hands and arms clasped in an insecure way. On the left is a short, petite, sharp faced white girl with messy dark brown hair, wearing a futuristic pastel colored shirt, shorts and boots. On the right is a tall, chubby black girl with a long, square face, shoulder length hair, wearing a futuristic grey school uniform with a skirt.
Of course I had to do one for Tally too. Clothing swap the third. Adaptation design and my pre-movie design

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing, depicting two middle aged women from the hip up. The taller one, Dr. Cable, is sharp faced, wiry and white, with a black bob, eerie grey eyes, aquiline nose, fangs and claws. She is holding the other, Maddys, chin in her hand, tilting it up, while holing her arm with the other hand. Maddy reaches out to her shoulder and looks at her pleading. She is a slightly chubby black woman with short hair, wearing a worn out, mended red dress.
Since before the movie I was on the fence about shipping Dr. Cable and Maddy, I never actually drew my pre-movie designs for them in a shippy way. So I had to

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing, showing Shay as a Special, surprised and flustered, in the middle, with heart or star shaped bubbles around her showing Tally (as Ugly, Pretty and Special), David and Tachs smiling at her. Above her is written "Go for it, Shay"
Very late to the meme, but just had to
Decided to include David and Tachs (guy she recruited into her cult in Pretties) too since canonically in the books, or respectively the graphic novels, she is attracted to them

Sad news in the last couple of weeks that Neem Tree Press has gone under. Like other NTP and Unbound authors, I'm now looking for new representation/publication - with the sequel to 'Calm' ready to go. #unbound #boundless #neemtreepress #yadystopia #authorlife

ID: Digitally drawn portrait of a young white man with a sharp face, big golden eyes, a pointy nose and a generally emaciated appearance. His hair is dyed bluish black and in an emo bob, and he wears a futuristic faux leather jacket and several golden necklaces.
Can you believe that I used to hate Zane as I first read the books because I hate bad boys and didn't notice that he isn't actually one, he uses that trying to hide just how hard he is fighting for his life

The NERVE of giving Shays lines about how beautiful Tallys eyes are and how pretty she finds her to Peris.
How did you possibly think adding the most hated YA dystopia trope and toning down the most unique relationship was a good idea?

ID: Meme: "Going to the home improvement store", showing text on one side and a photo of the person it applies to on the other. "fell in the cacti display while wandering around in the gardening section": David "being yelled at by employees while frantically ascending the Forbidden Orange Stairs": Zane "taking sick af selfies in the lighting aisle": Peris "shitting in the display toilets": Croy "tokyo drifting one of those flatbed carts down the aisles": Shay "lying on the fucken flatbed, holding on for dear life": Tally "lovingly touching all carpet samples": Fausto "stealing paint chips for aesthetic purposes": Maddy "just wanted some goddamn light bulbs and everyone ruined it": Dr. Cable "in the car sleepin": Az
Surprised that I hadn't done this meme with the cast already
Also added Zane and Fausto despite them not being in the adaptation (since they only appear in book two), but left out the lesser important side characters

ID: Digitally colorized pencil drawing of Tally and Shay naked cuddled against each other, Tally half on her back but with her legs draped over Shay, and Shay half under and half beside her, arms and legs draped around her. Both are tall and muscular, tattooed all over and have self-harm scars on their arms and battle scars on the rest of their bodies, but Tally is black and curvy in a sturdy way, while Shay is just lean and a Latina.
How peaceful they are. I love this, even beyond my OTP being cute. Maybe it's because their scars and angular faces and warriors bodies, but they're resting instead.
(Tally/Shay post-canon, my pre-movie design)
