Persephone and Hades AU
I lift my palms just enough to clear the table and summon the cooling darkness of the shadows. They stream out from under the table and blanket the room in less than a heartbeat, devouring all traces of light.
Panic skitters down the silver bond.
“Relax. It’s just me.” I crook a finger, and a strand of shadow solidifies to skim along Violet’s cheek.
“Fuck me,” a rider to the left says.
“I can surround this entire outpost, but I think that might freak some people out.” I close my hands, and the shadows jolt back to natural state, letting light pour in through the windows. Damn, that was fun. It was even worth the threat assessment I’m getting from Mira. Violet tenses like she spotted it, too. “I hope you didn’t get any ideas while we were in the dark there.”
She lifts her middle finger without even looking my way, and a laugh sneaks past my lips as Mira leads us through the rest of the exercise.

My entry for @ssnp_art ‘ DTIYS on Instagram 💙👑
‘“You will not find them in this sky or any other.”
His heart strained as he understood. As the loss of those twelve fierce, brilliant lives carved another hole within him. One he would not forget, one he would honor. Silently, he crossed the balcony. Manon did not back away as he slid his arms around her.
“I am sorry,” he said into her hair.
Tentatively, slowly, her hands drifted across his back. Then settled, embracing him.
“I miss them,” she whispered, shuddering.
Dorian only held her tighter, and let Manon lean on him for as long as she needed, Abraxos staring toward that blasted bit of earth on the plain, toward the mate who would never return, while the city below celebrated.’
I loved playing around with the brushes and textures. This moment in KOA broke my heart so I hope I did it justice with this fanart!
