One of the best episodes in my opinion. Or at the very least one of the most memorable outside of Book 3. I decided to change things up a little bit and base his outfit on Joseon (1392-1897 Korea) fashions. The young woman Song (I'm pretty sure that's her name) that he meets in this arc is also wearing hanbok so I thought I'd keep the theme going!
(Reoccurring disclaimer for this art series: This is for fun, they are inspired by the show's costume designs and then extrapolated out with historical fashion or things I think will be fun to draw. These are not meant to be accurate, only inspired. I hope you like them!)

a glimmering of serpents + the snow queen
king andreus used to be everything his daughter, princess leda, could wish for - kind, understanding, brave, and strong as a hurricane - but after the death of the queen and a bloody rebellion that came all too close to succeeding, he’s changed. he’s become cold, even cruel, walled up in the castle, caring nothing for the kingdom and the princess he once loved.
when her tutor mentions a strange queen in the northernmost reaches of the world, a queen of ice and bitter cold who will grant a single wish to anyone who solves her riddle, princess leda conceives a plan. she persuades her reluctant tutor to accompany her on a dangerous trek north, determined to find the snow queen and beg for her father back again.
the journey is long and difficult, but leda is determined to prove herself her father’s heir and win her heart’s desire. but it’s only when she finally comes face to face with the snow queen - and recognizes her - that she realizes she’s trusted the wrong person. she’s walked straight into a trap, and soon even her footprints will be lost forever beneath the gently falling snow.
tags: fairytale au, incest undertones, and overtones tbh, roleswap au, more like role sharing, leda is gerda and andreus is kai until leda turns into kai and andreus must become gerda, you know?
many kinds of light: the eragon au
when a long-dormant dragon egg hatches for the daughter of the tyrant king, no one, least of all the freedom fighters, knows what to do with her. whether they suspect her as a spy or hail her as a savior, everyone agrees that she represents their best chance at defeating her father once and for all. she is sent away into the depths of the forest, to the one man capable of teaching her the ways of magic— a dragon rider himself in days gone by, now a recluse for reasons unknown. as the princess and the magician draw closer, so too does war with the king, and she knows her only hope of victory is to convince him to fight by her side.
tags: idk what to even tag this, nostalgia (lmao), and a healthy dose of i can fix him, seriously girl don’t you have enough on your plate, also there’s def only one bed in that cabin, make of that what you will
[On my stomach, kicking my feet and twirling my hair] can I hear about your sleazy neo-noir story please?
Okay! Well! Hahaha!
It started when I attempted to read some e-published dark mafia romances, and couldn't quite find one to my taste. This isn't an insult towards the genre, but when it comes to deliberately fucked up romance, my id is a very hard creature to please and very easy to throw off. (Same goes for old school bodice rippers.)
So, I asked myself, what would I write? How about something with both a good boy and a bad boy? How about trying to channel neo-noir and the late-80s early-90s 'erotic thriller' genre like Bound or Body Heat?
Thus, the premise: The innocent sister of a gangster is taken hostage by a mob boss, and he hires a private detective to get her back. The detective and the hostage fall in love in the process, and have their own messed-up psychosexual baggage. Great! I don't know if it will end up novel or even novella length, but I can work with that! It's mostly a close personal story of Natalie Azimov, sweet natured vet tech, habituate of bdsm clubs, and damsel in distress; David Julian, incorruptible private detective with a flexible sexuality and a dangerous level of empathy; and Ewan Byrne, sadistic and obsessive gangster whose friendly boyish facade hides a diabolical interior. A couple thousand words came and went easily!
At which point I went "Uh oh, am I writing Blue Velvet?"
As my husband said, “Elisabeth is the shit.”
Bwahahahaha! This picture makes me so ridiculously happy. When the Moon on londonrainings’ laptop (it’s more real than seeing it on mine!) and a mini Tribute Train latte to be sipped while she reads!! :D :D :D
(Tribute Train, by the bye, is ground chocolate meltaways, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, and honey, mixed with espresso and half-and-half and garnished with whipped cream, honey, and toast cubes. Which, if you’re reading WtM, might sound familiar. ;D)
If anyone’s curious, here are two of the other minis that I sent her. (I strongly suspect the absence of a Janek pic is due to LR devouring him - in all of his Cookie Butter glory - too quickly. The man is tasty, and no mistake. ;D)
This one was formerly “The Ginger Bread Man.” :P (I’m calling it “Winter in Twelve” till I think of something cleverer.) It’s cupcake, gingerbread, and maple spice syrups (i.e., A Very Everlark Winter ;D) with a garnish (beautifully assembled here by LR!) of whipped cream, shimmer sugar “snow,” and “coal dust.”
And this is the famous Unnamed Peeta Latte: orange curd, cupcake syrup, nutmeg, orange blossom water - and, of course, half-and-half in place of milk. :D (This one makes my knees wobble at first sip, every time!)
Now I really ought to resume working on my Finnick and Katniss lattes for the next time LR passes through my neck of the woods… :D
