So, context. I like giving my characters interests and hobbies that are completely irrelevant to the story because it makes them feel more real and also lets me make fun little references. And Issac? Issac is a Swiftie, and has been since he was a little kid. So I've been doing this fun thing where I've drawn him as he was in the original Era and as he is when the Taylor's version comes out. This is for 1989. He was 16 when the original came out and 25 when Taylor's version did.
