#evayne winterscale

mostly cleaned up sketches cause life is busy but I missed my babies

Either as a Heinrix spotlight moment, with its direct relation to his own deep-held trauma of eye loss due to someone very important to you that should never have harmed you, or with how it’s one of the earliest points the Rogue Trader can get a hint that the Inquisitor has his softer aspects, with whatever impact that may have going forwards on the RT’s opinion.

It’s him who stabilises Evayne after all , unprompted;

Heinrix reaches a hand toward Evayne, and the temperature drops a few degrees; "He is in a bad way, but timely assistance from a chirurgeon will save his life. For now, I will... do what I can."

And when Idira asks if he can grow the eye back?:

Idira whistles as she watches Evayne’s breathing even out: “Fancy that ice man…can you make his eye grow back too?”

Heinrix fixes Idira a strange look: “It is more difficult than it may seem.”

That is not a no to at least doing something, which that man is not afraid to say no to people.

Heinrix has companion banter points later too - where he views the much younger idealistic man as foolish for trying to help his friend, but in a surprisingly for an Inquisitor, sympathetic you’ll just make yourself a victim via good intentions sort of way.

Essentially - the sort of “hidden kindness” stuff I am surprised the fandom has not been all over!

Come here, come here now to witness the spectacle of a lifetime. It's Corva von Valancius Magnae Accessio and as it is tradition every able-bodied man can enter the Battle Royale to win the Rogue Trader's hand in marriage. Behold, Solomorne Anthar and Heinrix van Calox join forces. Watch them fight foes untold. Hold your breath for the inevitable outcome. There can only be one! And who will it be to win the Lord Captain's heart and hand? Has there ever been a more unlikely pairing since Crockett and Tubbs? Come for the sizzling action, hot as Pasqal's plasma gun, and stay for the wit as sharp as Marazhai's blades. Read poetry that makes you weep (from pain), and in the end get a room for the rousing finale where some pipes are blown and people will die (from lust). Disclaimer: No cyber-mastiffs were harmed in the writing of this fic.

okay, it looks like now I can start writing Heinrix sticking himself into Rykad Minoris' politics. I already inserted the baroness there trying to take over from incompetent governor Medineh; now Warden Casteglia and Evayne Winterscale could have a romance? Tragic one?

Plus there is a cool pirate grandpa Bakhval and this guy whose diary we find in prison. Very existentialist.

I feel bad that Rykad Minoris is doomed, so many cool people.

But they now are founding in new colony if you play iconoclast.
