This is another favorite. I liked the idea that Tuesday and Jason would sneak away to random places and get to know one another better. I adore Jerry’s depictions of how Winston was always present in Tuesday’s arm, even when she was spending time with Jason. When the story was originally written, Tuesday was only twelve years old, and as I was developing the story, I felt that age was too young for her to experience the things she was going to deal with throughout the story. Yeah, I know. twelve-year-old kids are in relationships, but it didn’t feel natural to me at the time to have Tuesday that young. So, I bumped her up to fourteen, which allowed me to place her at an age that was more socially appropriate for her to be at. It also gave her a couple more years of experience and I could do a lot more with her character.
This is a close-up of Tuesday, where she was nervous about going to bed. I originally envisioned her with this short hairstyle where she didn’t have to do a lot to keep it in order. She’s the kind of girl who doesn’t care about fashions and trends, and in her solitude, forges her own path. Ultimately, I went with another hairstyle because it didn’t seem appropriate for 1995.
