Hello! I’m quite curious as to what the lore behind one of your beautiful illustrations is: the one where your Summoner Reuska is kneeling beside and looking down at Lif, who is laying on the ground, seemingly unconscious. It’s very beautiful! All of your art is, really! 💖
Oh gods, Anon, thank you so much for your words ♥ I had a sad-artist day yesterday so great timing too ♥♥
As for the picture, in my HC, Reuska has been pinning for Alfonse from quite an early stage but keeping it to herself because, for several reasons, she doesn't believe he would ever reciprocate. Meanwhile Fonse takes literal ages for his romantic awakening. And Líf is two things: He's Fonse and he's already awakened. So he keeps pinning back, also trying to hide it for many obvious reasons (not "his" Reuska, "I'm dead," etc.). But there's still a strong tension between them, whenever they meet.
Now, I won't pretend I remember why exactly he ended up unconscious in this scenario (my HC consists of lots of variations of individual moments and I always develop the one I feel for the most at the time). But she took the chance (and risk) to finally come and observe him closer. Because she's in love (technically with him), and she's curious too. Also heartbroken after seeing his transformation up close.
So that should be about it, when it comes to the emotions.
Oh, I do remember he was supposed to find her hair on his armor later because angst is good food xD
