Waiting for the Shoe to Drop by M_Moonshade

John and Arthur make a deal to rescue Noel from Larson and Yellow-- or at least, a version of him.

@malevolentbigbang time! I had the joy of working on this lovely and slightly emotionally brutal Joelthur fic by @ernmark beta’d by senseless_scribbles with fellow artist @mivved. It’s a very fun fic and you should read it.

My first piece for @malevolentbigbang !!

This is the cover art for the fic by @lostwords-found

Go read it here (I am still going feral about it)‼️: https://archiveofourown.org/works/71738181/chapters/186733016?view_adult=true

I also had the pleasure to work with @scream-telehead and @saaaaaaaalad, y’all were such a delightful group to work with!!

Malevolent Big Bang 2025

Over the past few months, @zil-street and I have created some illustrations to accompany @nerdfaerie's beautiful fan fic A Way to go Home.

Home is a fairy tale he used to tell Faroe, a lie he told himself, his own carrot, as false and hollow as Kayne’s. Maybe Arthur is a shark, unable to stop, leaving a trail of blood wherever he goes. — A character exploration of Arthur's relationship to the concept of home, spanning from childhood to post-canon.

My piece for @malevolentbigbang ✨

I had the pleasure of illustrating the yarn world of the fic by zuzeca where John and Arthur are in space! You can read it over here : https://archiveofourown.org/works/71629306

Also, go check out @justc4llmeellie who did wonderful art for the fic!! 🌻

I had the absolute pleasure of working with @gayghostrights and bones.mt as an artist on this year's @malevolentbigbang event! Moss wrote the incredible academic-style fic A Comprehensive History and Analysis of the Poetry of John Doe, which is told in a series of essays, interviews, letters, photos, and poems that are structured as if they're academic articles and sources about real-life poet John Doe and his newly-revealed queer relationship with songwriter Arthur Lester. This fic is truly phenomenal, creative, and emotional, and everyone reading this should go read it.

It also lent itself incredibly well to a bookbinding project! Before I get into the typeset and the various intricacies, I want to shout out the other artist on this project, Bones, who illustrated every single photo from the fic, as well as designed the cover art that you can see above. It was truly a wonderful experience to work with him and to have a collection of wonderful photos to include in the bind, and I was able to make glossy centerfolds to show them off.

You can find Bones's artwork here!

More details and photos can be found below the cut!

YAY!! ITS POSTING DAY FOR @malevolentbigbang!!!!

It was an absolute honor to work with Words_Go_Fast on her Phantom of the Opera au, Music of the Night! This is the masquerade scene into why so silent with john stealing the spotlight (It's peak, I cant recommend it enough)

I will never get over this fic. This one took root in a way few other stories can. This one is in my DNA now. @sepiabandensis you outdid yourself.

SOFT AS A DAISY

Since the moment she was spawned, the being that Lilith called ‘father’ was a stranger. He was distant, cold as the glaciers of Kadath and with a laugh sharper than broken glass, and their brief interactions had made it very clear that all he desired of Lilith was for her to get out of his way. That was then. Now, Shub-Niggurath has vanished, leaving everyone with questions they want answers to. The being Lilith called ‘father’ is the only person in existence who might have an idea what happened, but is stuck searching for answers as well. The being that Lilith called ‘father’ set his path to discover what happened—and Lilith, for better or for worse, is along for the ride.
