Behold! An honest to goodness physical copy of My Immortal!

I didn't get a picture, but I opened it up and, yep, exactly what it says on the tin. I had no idea there were physical versions in print. I didn't end up getting it (I unfortunately currently have far more books than bookshelf space), but I absolutely will be thinking about it forever.

Ohhhh boy finally I’m finished with this bad boy. This is for @plaidshirtjimkirk ‘s @oldmarriedspirk Challenge! This of course takes place before Spock returns to the Enterprise in TMP, and if it’s not entirely clear it’s a slight twist where Spock does in fact seek Bones’ advice for how to approach the Unfuckening he caused between TOS & TMP. 

The format and coloring was largely inspired by Tongari’s  25 Lives, which is one of my absolute favorite comics and pieces of writing, like, ever. :) I think it’s so beautiful and it inspires me so much every time I come across it/an incarnation of it. Please check it out!

Members of other "undesirable" professions. The executioners usually had close ties with undertakers, for obvious reasons.

Executioner families from various cities married between each other. Some of those marriages were quite international.

Less often, people ended up in the profession due to various circumstances. For example Charles Sanson (1658–1695), the first "Monsieur de Paris" of the Sanson line, that held the office for seven generations until 1847, and great-grandfather of Charles-Henri Sanson (1739-1806), the man who executed Louis XVI, Marie-Antoinette, and Robespierre; was a military man, who for some reason ended up marrying the daughter of the then executioner of Paris, and took over his trade.

Speaking of the Parisian Sansons, there's a beautifully illustrated (at times a little bit psychedelic) and very interesting manga titled Innocent, which follows the family's fictionalised history, especially during the final years of the Bourbon Monarchy and the French Revolution.

Gotta love the usage of social media and other anachronisms to showcase Marie Antoinette's isolation in the chapter, when she comes to Versailles

some wips of my newest project!
