A digital illustration of a scene from AV Wilkes' 'All the White Spaces'. Jonathan, a trans man and the protagonist, stands in the centre, facing the viewer. He stares ahead in horror, his right hand clutching his throat. From his left eye, strands of bleeding red aurora stretch outwards. These auroras show visions of Jonathan's brothers on the Western Front of the First World War: - A moustached officer smokes a cigarette in a trench, looking away. - A soldier is twisted in the remains of barbed wire. - Three soldiers wear gas masks, emerging from clouds of mustard gas. - No Man's Land exploded to all hell. A tank is submerged in a shell hole in the distance. - A skull pressed into the earth. - A soldier holds a rifle and makes his way across the strait of No Man's Land.
Two portrait aligned digital illustrations of book covers. Left: An illustration of Afaeran and King Galdor from the webcomic Wundor. They stand in the centre, facing each other. They are bordered by Ancient Greek inspired white columns and an arch above them. The columns are covered with grapevines, vine leaves, and hanging purple grapes. Afaerun is an oche skinned elf with flowing light pink-white hair, and wears a curved silver and ruby tiara, he smiles as he looks at King Galdor. King Galdor is a purple skinned monarch with a single white horn growing from his head. He has flowing dark purple hair, and wears a red leaf laurel. He holds Afaerun's cheek in a romantic embrace. Right: The cover for the book The Need for Dandelions by Alex Larkspur. Two men stand back to back surrounded by depictions of dandelions. The man angled to the front is Galen. He has tan skin, red hair, and hazel eyes. A large portion of his face is covered by a burn scar. He wears a yellow tunic and brown pants, along with a pink flower pendant. He lifts up one hand, and looks concerned. The other man, facing towards the back but looks over his shoulder, is Sasha. He has light brown hair, dark brown eyes, and stubble. He is wearing leather armor and green shirt and pants. He is holding a sword.
2 different portrait illustrations side by side. Left: Alder is a green skinned eladrin elf paladin. He stands nude in a forest. He wears a gold crown of laurels on his head. He looks down at the ground. He holds a sword in one hand, and a sprig of alder branch in the other, he has a shield attached to one arm. He is surrounded by green trees and yellow flowers. Right: A digital illustration inspired by the pairing Hansry (Hans Capon and Henry of Skalitz from the game series Kingdom Come Deliverance). The illustration is influenced by a scene in the 2005 film Pride and Prejudice. It is separated into 3 panels. Panel 1: Hans Capon looks behind him in quiet shock at his bodyguard Henry. Panel 2: Henry has touched Hans' ungloved hand with his gauntleted one in a gentle hold. The panel is surrounded by blooming flowers: herbs and plants that Henry can forage on his journey. Marigold, St John's Wort, Valerian, Sage, Chamomile, and Dandelion. Panel 3: Henry meets Hans' eyes with an unreadable expression. He quietly yearns beneath it.
A digital illustration of a purple, green, and grey-blue themed bookshelf. The book shelf is filled with old tomes, Victorian inspired knick-knacks such as keys, teacups, candles, and a flask of a potion. On one of the shelves there is a framed picture of an anatomical human heart, along with a skull resting on a stack of books. On another shelf, there is a bust of Diana the Greek goddess.

So tru! Cant have them completely bumble through plot progression since it would seem like less if the character having autonomy and more he just happens to stumble into the right moments.
this is great news
for my friend
Since Trump has trouble distinguishing what someone in the medical profession looks like, here is a picture of a lifesaving professional.

jfc YEAH that really fucked me up too. the insidious nature of how he just... posted that like it was just another day on twitter or whatever. sickening
asking for a friend ofc
fair enough!
I've been hearing people are getting tired of the fantasy MC who's effortlessly skilled and good at everything but is there a market for an MC who's the opposite? Would you read a book about a bumbling boyloser who is impulsive, a little foolish and just trying his best?

I need to get over this anxiety over staring revisions up because if I don't finish this queer lil story about a white-haired anime boy going on a journey of self discovery and cultural connection while pursued by a nationalist cult... who will?

Isometric illustration by Teabiscuits of a "Chocolate Poogle" from Neopets; shown napping in a cake and candy land. The grassy patch is flush with lollipops, cotton candy trees, and gumdrop bushes. On the lower level is a cake beach-front with rainbow sprinkles and frosting waves lapping upon the shore.
A perfect world for a Chocolate Poogle~๐ฌ๐ฉ
