New month, new wonderful fic, I suppose. Thanks to @nsharks for this thing, which now lives in my brain and doesn't leave my head.

I haven't drawn or posted anything for ages, but I recently saw some beautiful Empress-ghoul covers and then got into the world of bookbinding... and decided to try something similar for the work that's been my obsession for the past few months - Ichor tongue; salted wounds. Thanks @ilium-ilia again for this masterpiece.

writing is so funny because i could write nonstop for 9hrs and then hit a block where im like "how do i transition between this moment and the next?" and then i just dont touch it for 6 months

last year i finally read "all that's said in the low light" by headlocket which i feel like has developed its own reputation by now, but just in case you don't know - it's kind of known in the fandom as a massive tearjerker. As promised, I cried buckets over it and it left an enormous impact on me.

I drew this comic (after getting permission from headlocket) as a what if on a situation in chapter 12, where Simon goes through a period of radio silence from Johnny after essentially giving him his blessing to date other people, the utter clown. We only see it from Johnny's side, who is really going through it, but the mental image of Simon staring at a slew of his own unread messages really stuck with me...did he think this was it? That that shitshow of a conversation he had with Johnny might've been the last they ever had? What if Johnny just never responded to him again? Did he regret giving him permission?

bonus - simon's forlorn and temporarily one-sided conversation:

A bit of writer's pain. For a week now I've been trying to write out a scene in a new chapter of BT that I can't seem to get through, and I'm slowly coming to the realisation that it's better to skip it altogether. Over 1,500 signs and several hours of wasted time and work in the rubbish. Love it.
