Age Meme - Merle

I have been willing to do this sort of age-meme thing for a long time, but I failed so many times ! I'm quite okay with this evolution of Merle, so here it is !

… It kinda gives me the feeling Merle never knew what to do with his own hair OTL. And somehow those notes I added just for fun make a lot of sense regarding Merle's story ! His main goal in life is to make money and get beaten by handsome men

- The necklace he was wearing when he was 5 is an Apsaalooke ornament made of abalone shell (I checked this detail in my Edward S. Curtis’s photography book that I LOVE SO DEEPLY <3). Most certainly offered by his mother, but it was stolen from him at some point.

- Around 13 he ended up homeless and (probably) orphaned. He learned how to fight in the streets, and began at a quite early age to value money more than anything else.

- Flaming 20 years old Merle, when he was a regular boxer but already one hell of a cheater.

- “Nowadays” Merle. All damaged by years of brutal boxing (hence the slight stoop), he makes a living of criminal activities but won’t ever give up boxing.
