Day 7: What Will I Do in the Sunrise? (Fanart)

Prompts Filled: Purple, Goodbye, Warmth, Travel

Anyone else a fan of that kind of old-school scifi colorblocking look?

Anyways, this is fanart for @theinfernalwhistler amazing fic What will I do in the sunrise in which Yondu (Y77 9K4 90Q) comforts a fellow dying slave (a Lumphomoid called Y13 1H8 97Q), who wishes to feel the sunrise again. 

Excerpt: 

“’I’m sure it’ll be sunny where you go,’ he says instead, even though it’s a lie. Slaves aren’t people, and they don’t go anywhere when they die. There is nothing inside that could go on living after the body crumbles, so they just cease to exist. But the masters aren’t here to punish him for such talk, so a little lie to a dying man doesn’t cost him anything. 

Y13 smiles faintly, and breathes, ‘I hope you’ll get to see it some day,’ before falling silent. His eyes are locked on the sunset until they go blind, and Y77 9K4 90Q keeps him on his lap until he goes cold.”  

Seriously, it’s one of the best slave!Yondu fics I’ve ever read (and criminally underrated), so if you have the time and inclination, you should read it (the fic title above is a link to the AO3 work).
