Luna's Imagination

Ever since her Miyu incarnation, I've pictured Luna with an insanely overactive imagination.
Invisible friends, ghosts she can see, demons that try to pester her because she can see them, ect.
But I've only just begun to plan some of these individuals.
A tan Pukifee Pong Pong has been at the top of my list of these guys.
And an AileenDoll Seed is right behind her.
But lately I've been thinking about the demons.
Luna suffers from depression, even though she never lets it show around anyone.
And I've been thinking of a doll to represent that depression and anxiety that she keeps locked away.
This is a far-fetched idea that might not even be brought into doll form, but I just want to get it out there before I forget and get caught up in other dollies.
With depression, you suffer with feeling alone and feeling like you can't reach out.
So this doll has some gore to it in my mind. 
The mouth is sewn or stapled shut. Maybe both. 
It should either be a smiley sculpt or have some mods to make a forced smile, since sometimes it feels like all you do is force smiles.
And then I can't decide if I want eyes sewn shut or modded to be like they've been gouged out and scarred over. 
Either way there's lots of time to think on this and plan.
It hurts to think of Luna feeling this way since I love her character so much, but I know she has amazing friends that help her get through low times, so that makes things better.

  1. I think that's a neat idea! I just read something that said the dementors in Harry Potter were based on the author's depression.

    A doll representing that would be amazing! My doll Harp is sort of a physical interpretation of my own struggles. I always find that to be an artistic interpretation of pain. Your ideas sound really cool! :D Good luck!
