Fuck Yeah Mark And Kieran!

Mark Blackthorn & Kieran of the Hunt: Stars to Burn (The Dark Artifices)

Hyper quick headshot rough sketch of my baby Kieran, because I need a little bit of him in my life every day.

How is it that I can never draw him the actual way I imagine him looking?

So frustrating =w=‘

“ Kieran’s gaze seemed dazzled by moonlight. He reached for Mark and laid his hands on Mark’s shoulders. There was a moment where Mark could have drawn away, but he didn’t.”

Another drawing of Kieran, this time I finally did it in color! :D

He’s much more beautiful in my imagination. I just don’t have the abilities to actually show it ;__; 

I love him so much it hurts ;__;

Snippet from Lord of Shadows - unexpected alliances…

Lord of Shadows

Kieran muttered something under his breath and said, “I will swear loyalty to Mark. I will do as he bids me do, and follow the Nephilim for his sake. And I shall argue with Prince Adaon for your cause, though it is his choice in the end.”

Something flickered in Julian’s eyes. “No,” he said. “You will not do this for Mark.”

Mark looked at his brother, startled; Kieran’s expression tensed. “Why not Mark?”

“Love complicates things,” said Julian. “An oath should be free of entanglements.”

Kieran looked as if he might explode. His hair had gone com- pletely black. With an angry look at Julian, he strode toward the Shadowhunters—and knelt in front of Cristina.

“The Hunt was pain and glory. But you were what made me able to see the glory and not only the pain.”

“I’m sitting eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life…”

Theres been speculation about Anabel Blackthorn too, like how she might not quite be alive but no entirely dead either. And she was brought back by a fey ritual, and according to Malcolm, loved the water. Her family, shamed by her love for a warlock, trapped her in a tomb and condemned her to die. 

Sounds pretty similar between the two characters, yes? Both connected to the water, from noble lines, and condemned by their families. Personally, I think this will come into play. I think Kieran’s nixie heritage is one of the main reasons he was sold, and why his role will be huge. Water fey are common folk.  I wonder if  this is because of their nature? Does having connections to that element make them volatile or something, as Kieran seems pretty emotional for someone from the Unseelie Courts. And Anabel, who may be an undead corpse in an underwater tomb, brought back to life with fey magic? Will she have some new found abilities related to the sea?

I s Kieran’s role connected with this? We know about his mood changing hair as a result of his nixie heritage, but what else? Does he have water magic? Can he create storms? Can he breathe underwater (probably)?
