Icon ponderings!

I hear that djinni may be posting icons late today or tomorrow, which means that another icon day is coming which means...

...I need to pick icons to request.

Thoughts:
Ceinwen
Ahouva (problem: she has no Change)
Timora

Spring or Summer

Someone Cali? (Tricky keeping it sweet-and-innocent)

...something in Fae Apoc, not sure who though.

Telepathic purple Clydesdale

Another member of the Facets team

An Aunt, with a Cat (Caunt?)

Thoughts?

Exterminator, a story of the Dragons Next Door Verse for the Giraffe Call (@anke)

For anke's prompt

Dragons Next Door has a landing page here on DW and here on LJ

Unusual calls were the norm in Steve's line of work.

Ever since the non-human races had started moving into the cities in the mid-twenties, spurred by talk of prosperity and just in time for the Depression, the underbelly of the urban areas had been getting weirder and weirder.

Gone were the days when an exterminator could lay down some poison gas and call it good; gone were the days when cockroaches and rats were the biggest problems. Drets, tiny dragon-like insects, proliferated (and ate cockroaches, and sometimes started fires). Creels, about the size of a large mouse but armored like an armadillo, chewed through wires and ignored rat poison.

Prickly, a story of Addergoole Year Nine

After Trojan Gift (LJ). (I realized I needed to define their relationship more clearly before I wrote further ahead with Sylvia/Gar

This is set in the Addergoole 'verse, whose landing page is here on DW & here on LJ, in year 9. Sylvia the Otter-girl is the character in the icon, by @Inventrix, shown here:
.
To say Gar was pissed would be to woefully underrepesent the situation.

He stood in the hallway, shaking. You don't hit girls. You don't hit girls. You don't...

"You trapped me!" he shouted, fists clenched. Her otter-ers twitched, but her expression didn't change.

"Don't shout. Yes, I trapped you. You're handsome and clever, and, with Arundel having gotten a new Kept, I find I miss having a warm presence in bed with me at night."

Character description and signal Boost

djinni is hosting ICON DAY 21!!

And for an icon request, #1 was Summer. Here's her description:

Summer is younger, a sunny blonde; her hair is generally pulled back in a loose ponytail, strands falling in her face: http://www.my-hair-style.com/2010/08/23/the-sleek-ponytail-in-its-various-different-avatars-for-fall/

She prefers bright colors for her clothes, especially yellow, orange, and that bright colour in between those two. Simple clothes, probably a T-shirt like this - http://images.footballfanatics.com/FFImage/thumb.aspx?i=%2FproductImages%2F_619000%2Fff_619717_xl.jpg&w=400 saying something clever- I like "Yes, and?" or, if smaller, "try."

Like her siblings, her face shape is most like this picture here: http://www.edinburghpastoralcounselling.com/resources/coupleiStock_000008560478Small.jpg; her skin is tan but not deeply so.

Two Vignettes of Cynara - Addergoole Boom Post-Apoc

This first vignette happens around year 20 of the Addergoole school, 3-4 years after the Apoc begins. This is a little bit after this scene. Note: Cya is known for keeping Kept for a year directly after they graduate Addergoole; she Kept Gaheris for 3-1/2 (the apoc messed with her normal methods of doing things)
