I read Blood and Straw by @sameoldsorceress (HopeCoppice) and was feeling emotional, so I whipped out a few sketches of moments in the story that really struck me. No time for cleaning them up when there’s feelings involved, unfortunately.

I can’t seem to find it. Does anyone else know this one?

so i put a twist on this bc i’m an asshole and enjoy pain.

Alex hates her to begin with, the woman with the white streak in her hair who says “there is nothing you can do” and drags Alex away from the collapsed remains of her home.

Her parents are dead and her planet is dying, collapsing in on itself, and only now have these people - these aliens - decided to help them and Alex is angry. She holds nothing back, pulling against the woman’s grip, screaming and crying until her head aches and the woman simply lifts Alex into her arms and carries her as though she weighs nothing at all.

A: Of the fanfic you’ve written, which is your favorite and why?

Down the Road and Back Again - it’s a Modern AU Hobbit fic, and I think it’s the most tightly-plotted of my stuff.

S: How do you feel about fan art inspired by your writing?

But THINK OF THE PARENTS EVENINGS “Has Pepper been starting any fights?” “No, she’s been good as gold” “Damn.” “I WIN!”
