Cen does not approve of monocles, because he can't really see very well with only one glass. So I think it is more annoyance than seriosity.
I am not against monocles per se, I just think only 2 types of people can wear them. #1 being the landed gentry #2 being ridiculously fly black guys, and even then, most borhters would have trouble styling a monocle.
I'm doing my next set of character sketches, but seriously guys we're getting to the point where if you haven't submitted at least your first draft, either you better have it ready to go with minimal changes or you're going to start pushing back the starting date!
