I think a 10-12 age difference is fine, especially in OC fics. My Diana is supposed to be the same age as MiB, but in some of the footage I use she looks like 15 years younger. LOL The footage my banner comes from is the closest I have to them being the same age, cuz it's not from Charmed. xD So no worries. I don't think it's ooky at all though, Julia, if she were like 20 and he were like 50-60, that might be a bit ick, but 20's-30's is not that big of a deal to me.  _________________

My uncle is like 12 years older than my aunt. Something like that. It might be more than that. So yeah, I don't think it matters. 
However, I should have made Michayla 18. *tears hair out* Because she accidentally fell in love with Boone and they can't be together because she's only 16!! 
This was not supposed to happen when I first started writing that fic.  _________________

Thanks Jemma, Millie, Allie, and Eryn!
Yeah, it's for my OC. I've got it pretty well planned out, but then at the dentist today my muse started throwing out all these other ideas.
Initially her secondary love interest was going to be Boone, so I wanted her to be a good age for him, but then all the actors I'm thinking for her primary love interest (who will also be an OC) are a lot older. Then today my brain was like, hmmm... Boone? Jack maybe? And then it starts throwing completely different ideas at me, totally different from the background/storyline I had planned out. So now I'm like... WTH?!
LOL! Hopefully I'll get it all sorted out soon. I'm really excited to start on it. If I can just settle on what "it" will be! 
Thanks for the advice everyone! (((BIG HUGS)))
ETA: Awww, Eryn! Hahaha... maybe you could have her find her birth certificate and discover she's really 18 afterall.  |

lol But don't you love that?? It means that it's 'real' if it's taking on a life of it's own without your permission. It's definitely a good sign, it just sometimes takes some sorting out but I went through that with Diana ALOT. Some of my original ideas definitely changed and went in totally different directions than I thought they would. hehe It's fun. Good luck! _________________

Thanks, Allie! It is definitely fun! It's just always hard to decide which direction to keep and which to ditch. But then I realized I can make another OC at some point to use some of the really different ideas I had to ditch with this OC.
Thank goodness for OCs and fan-fic. I have way waaaay too much fun writing.  |

So excited to read about your OC Julia!
I've recently become addicted to icon making, so I made some new Aurora icons 
Aurora and her boyfriend, Sam Winchester
Aurora and her best friend, Dean Winchester
Aurora and her three best girl friends, Andie, Cassidy, and Zoe (Andie and Cassidy are Kat's OCs, Zoe is Eryn's OC)
Aurora and another friend, Lana (my friend Kyla's OC)
A younger Aurora and her mother
Hoping to make some for Matt later  _________________

Thanks, Becca!
My Lost OC is driving me sort of insane at the moment. I had an idea all hammered out, but now I've got 50 different ideas and I have to either figure out what to keep and roll into one character, or how to divvy it up between two.
I totally love your new icons! My absolute fave is 3rd down but they're all gorgeous. Looking forward to your Matt icons, too!  |

This one is for Becca (ciaimpala). I'm watching a movie called "Experiment" with Adrien Brody, and Maggie Grace is in it. There might be some good OC scenes for you. She talks with him at a bar/has a beer, she talks with him while they lie in bed, she's outside in a crowd of people... that's all there's been so far, but I'm sure there will be more. I'm less than 20 minutes into it. _________________

No problem. Ok, that movie is really upsetting. lol But she's in it again at the end and in a few dreamy sequences, so you've got at least 4-5 new scenes with her in them that could come in handy. _________________
