Chamomile Tea in a Buttercup

I mean it's anachronistic as heck because he didn't have that armour anymore by the time Cad Bane shot him, or he would have been protected from Cad Bane shooting him, but look how little and cute he is!

I'm enough of a sucker that I still might buy this.

Not gonna ask you to finish it dw, it's a really really old fic to finish anyways, i was just going to ask, what's your current opinion on The Adventures of Tintin? And your opinion on Tintin x Tchang? I would love to hear it!

Aw, that's really kind of you. Thank you! I think I'll always love the Tintin books, they were a formative part of my childhood and as I've reread them through the decades having learned more about the periods and places they took place in, I've just found more to appreciate in them. Tintin x Chang is a very special and sweet ship to me. It arose from a friendship that transformed Hergé's ideas about people foreign to him and the kinds of stories he wanted to tell, and I think the energy of that personal transformation illuminates it. The Blue Lotus is imperfect and messy in ways that show the contradictions and dissonance going on in Hergé's mind as he was going through that, and the huge growth period he was in as a writer and an artist. Tintin in Tibet is a regeneration by a mature artist after a period of godawful creative block and the sheer mastery on display is amazing to see alongside The Blue Lotus. I wish there could have been more canon adventures with Chang but the ones that there are, are pretty perfect of their kind.
