A pencil drawing of Ruga and Elketh – both feminine-presenting, one an orc and one an elf – from the romance novel “The Orc and Her Bride.” They rest on a bed of pillows, Ruga in Elketh’s arms, both smiling with eyes closed. An emotive “sigh” with a stylized heart is penciled in lightly above Ruga, with a curving line coming towards her from the word.

A pencil drawing, digitally tinted purple, of a thin, feminine-presenting elf, and a broadly built, feminine-presenting, horned orc, drawn in a sweet embrace back to front from the ribcages up. The elf looks back to smile at the orc with a quirked eyebrow, while the orc gazes at her in open, confident, innocent affection. The background is filled in with roses to frame their forms, and a single heart surrounded by expressive lines rises above and between them.
