The only part that is not okay is that I am terribly embarrassed the edges were unfinished.

I think the only thing that makes The Dreamland Chronicles image any better than The Other Boleyn Girl is the caption that's in the picture. If the words weren't there we wouldn't even be able to tell that she's royal.

"If the words weren't there..."

They are, though.

It feels too Just A Face And A Caption. The queen (or in this case mayor) should have a crown. There's Queen Elizabeth.

She looks constipated.

Honestly, none of these express to me that she's wearing a mask. Looking neutral isn't the same as being in a constant state of...neutrality. I like the comic one—that's a bit more obvious.

The webcomic pic's the only one that comes close to actually depicting what the trope is trying to get across.

I dunno... The Nastajia pics just communicate "sourpuss queen". This trope is about leading during a war.

What about this panel, resized of course? Too much war, not enough queen?

EDIT: Panel 2 of this one shows her looking authoritative and giving orders during a war.

Those don't make it clear that she's a political leader. I'd go with the mayor one. (She runs the city but needs to lighten up.) It's good enough.

[up] But does needing to lighten up really come into the trope? It's more about strategizing and never showing weakness.

Sorry, I don't mean to drag things out as soon as the timer is set. -_-;

Not at all, it is an "inactivity clock", new discussion may be activity.

[up] Exactly; the clock is meant to be a prod to get a thread to a point of resolution within that time frame, whether it's actually selecting a pic or getting enough options to do a crowner.

Clock's up; locking for inactivity/lack of consensus. No further action is to be taken based on this thread.
