This year I decided to wear a little cosplay based on @pompomnium 's drawing of Kitty. I've wanted to do this look for a long time, I always thought it was so cute! I've been away from here for a while and since then, Pompom has provided even more beautiful character drawings of Kitty - I really want to recreate the newest versions (maybe for Halloween next year 🤔) I also have plans to cosplay a version of younger Kitty too!

Anyway- unfortunately the wig I wanted to buy went out of stock right before Halloween 🫠 so I had to make do with one I already owned, however I think (hope) it gives post PG Kitty vibes when her hair gets the silver streaks.

I tried to stay faithful to the pose in the artwork, but Kitty is a lot more graceful than me 😅 so I had to change it up a little otherwise I looked very strange 😂

Still, I hope it was faithful enough to the design (I'll definitely recreate it when I get a new wig (⁠ノ⁠ಠ⁠益⁠ಠ⁠)⁠ノ

Thank you for all the inspiration your lovely artwork gives @pompomnium (⁠づ⁠｡⁠◕⁠‿⁠‿⁠◕⁠｡⁠)⁠づ

Here is the cover and the third page

Cover: Get ready! A crazy story is coming that will make you laugh. 🙂

I’d like to introduce you to my fan comic, which I’m still working on. It’s set in the world of Legacy of Kain and my own world, featuring characters like Bartimaeus—the djinn from the Bartimaeus trilogy/series—and Mulch Diggums—the dwarf from the Artemis Fowl book series. The character's dance pose starts at 0:33—it's a dance from an anime https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2toU0Yddew.

Well, Post PG Nat dressing like a Victorian Era haunted doll with a knee length hoop skirt and stockings.

(Please please someone write or draw of this this. I want to see a shell shocked Bartimaeus and Kitty wondering if he finally lost it.)

In Ptolomey's gate the one scene that ACTUALLY makes me cry is, strangely, not Nathanial's death. I mean it DOES make me cry but not much, and not really. The one that does (and it has, twice, in the last 5 days) is the scene where he goes and re-meets with Ms. Lutyens. I Don't know but that scene is so painfully heart wrenching to me, my heart hurts for this boy. It HURTS.

I think it's the fact she is the one thing he has that is solely from his childhood, the one person left who he feels had and could love him/like him to some degree. And then he goes to thank her for it, and to see her again and FEEL SOMETHING that isn't connected to the mess and bullshittery that is his current life, and she rejects him. She DOES. She tells him "I never had anything to do with YOU. Not with John Mandrake" and it's the realization that she doesn't accept him anymore, she doesn't LIKE HIM (love him) anymore. And that no one in the world does.

That fucking last line from her when he tries to explain once again: "I wanted to say that I know you were trying to save me and-"

'"Yeah" she said. "And I'm sorry I didn't. Good-bye, Mr. Mandrake"'

FUCK. FUCK.

Anyways I am perpetually sad and I too am sorry Ms. Lutyens couldn't be there to save him. Because he needs it, to the very last moment. And kitty half did but they barely had that connection, she was a recent relationship. And Bartimaeus could have but their relationship is too complicated and he is his Slave and he can't be there all the time and he, frankly, doesn't care enough when he is around to put much effort in it because the resentment still burns, even if Bartimaeus somewhat likes/loves him and so there was no one.
