cat-coded sad old men my beloved

Hi hello! I have not become a missing person; I'm just in the middle of my ranger season and haven't had reliable access to WiFi. Daily activities have included! Night hiking, hunting for aquatic macroinvertebrates, quilting, mimicking gray-cheeked salamanders, mimicking fireflies, inadvertently attracting owls, avoiding elk, wrangling chickens, dressing in 19th century garb and baking cornbread on the hearth of a 126-year old house, other duties as assigned. A standard season!

Anyway, I saw this ren faire photo from user Shakespeare922 on reddit and had to turn it into twentysomething Boromir suited up for tournament. HAD to.

He looks so wary at first, like an abused street cat

but then he gets so cozy in it...!! Pulling it over his head like a moody teenager 😭😭🫶

(boy if you don't GET OFF THAT COUCH —)

He even takes it with him when he goes outside for a smoke. I love him so much I'm crying

I am in so much pain

I worked on this for SEVEN HOURS with only a 20 minute break😭

The rendering was so fun tho, which is something you will rarely hear me say cause I hate rendering lmao

He's so pretty
