The Queens of Cold & Dark

a Fem!Pitch and Fem!Jack Ask blog

Jaquelyn quietly entered Chell's cave. To her surprise, it wasn't blocked off. She flew deeper into the innermost chamber and landed on a stairwell. She looked up into the light filtering through the cages dangling from the ceiling. It had been over a week since Chell had rejected her. "Chell?" She called out. "Chell, I know you're here."

Everything was quiet. Jaquelyn seemed defeated, but turned her head and saw her shadow was warped. It wasn't her own, anymore.

Jaq swallowed, unafraid.

"Chell, I'm sorry for prying. It wasn't my business. But you know, you're not great at privacy yourself," She said, trying to lighten the mood.

"But you're right. I don't know you, I know you've hurt me and the others in the past, but, that's why I asked. That's why I wanted to know, I only wanted to understand you better."

"I mean, no one ever tells me anything!" Jaq half shouted, ice the floor with her staff in annoyance. She walked up the stairs and paced the broken bridge. "Not my memories, not the moon, not anyone's pasts, not about being a spirit, not about guardianship... nothing." She sighed. "Even so, while I respect your boundaries, I need you to respect me, now."

The shadow was unmoving, but Jaq could imagine Chell raising an eyebrow at her.

"You don't get to decide what is and is not dangerous for me. I mean, it really goes to show you don't know me at all, huh? I'm Jaquelyn Frost! I LIVE for danger! I know you think it makes me stupid, but even you can admit to the thrill. But fun or not, when that danger is hurting my vulnerable, pompous friend?"

Chell abruptly rose from Jaquelyn's shadow, staring down at her.

Jaq puffed out her chest, taking a deep breath. She pointed the tip of her staff at Chell's chin.

"If you think I'm gonna just abandon her because she said some mean words to me, then you've got another thing comin, old lady."

Chell met Jaq's eyes. Shadows danced upon her closed fists. The two were at a standoff. Chell then suddenly sighed, sagging her shoulders forward.

"Ah, leave it to Jaquelyn Frost to meddle in my affairs. I suppose... if I couldn't stop you then, I sure can't stop you now." Chell walked past Jaquelyn; her high heels clicking upon the bridge as she strolled. "The lair has been getting quite stuffy. I could use some fresh air."

Jaquelyn watched as Chell walked on, pretending to ignore her. Jaq rolled her eyes and shook her head at the audacity. But soon broke out into a fit of giggles, and ran after her.

Hello? Testing! Testing! Is this thing on?

[ask-jaq-and-chell]

this is more a question for you then it it's the girls but they can answer too, whomst is you favourite guardians of childhood book series charater

Mun here, hello hello!

Favorite Guardians of Childhood character, book specifics only might be Nightlight.

He's a mystical, mysterious being that seldom speaks like Sandman, and collects tears and turns them into a dagger blade. I wish there was a little more to him, but I also like how other wordly he kind of is.

(Also apologies for my absence, very busy past few months, but again, haven't forgotten about this blog!)

[ask-jaq-and-chell]

Is this blog still alive?

Hi, gosh, it has been so long, right?

So I have actually been planning to dust this blog up sometime soon (hopefully), a lot has been going on and I've been too busy to put any energy or focus on this blog, but I have not forgotten about it and I intend to pick it back up again!

The problem is, I don't have the time to keep up with things in mini-comic style right now, so I figured I would go icon only. I am still working on icons for each character. Once those are complete, I will make a text post addressing the "story so far" and I'll address any retcons, fixations, clarifications, etc... just so everyone can be caught up with a summary, since this blog has been inactive for probably 2+ years or more, and there are some things I'd like to fix about the story. (Mannie's response to leaving Jack alone for so long, for one)

But yes! This blog will be revived! Might even change the blog theme since the snow particles choke up my Chrome and Safari asddsgjdlfgk;dfg

Here is a sneak peek of proof for icons being in the works! Jaq and Chell's are completed and colored, but I still need icons for Bunny, Northel, Sandy, Toothian, Baetooth(?), Nightlight(?) , Mannie (?) , Katherine's counterpart (?), (Jamies's counterpart, Jack's sister's counterpart, etc, perhaps a few others...)

Once all the icons are done, this blog shall return from the grave!

[hezuart]

Am I on eternal hiatus? Or is poor Hezu here taking on more than she can handle? After reviewing all the things I handle for my online persona vs. my reality persona, I’d like to support the idea of cloning humanity please or specifically me so I can split myself up and tackle all these things at once instead of hopping from one, and never coming back to it until like a year later dlkjgfkdjgkdfjg Not even everything I do, or everything expected of me is up there I’m a workaholic , RIP 

~~~~

So sorry for not getting around to things as quickly as I can. But I’m a multifandom artist with lots of WIPS hanging around, and the real me has had quite an…eventful year to say the least, and it’s far from over. But I don’t want to cancel anything. Nor can I figure out what truly takes priority here. So, I’ll just do things as I go, and each ball I’m juggling will make a full circle and once more come in contact with my hand again SOMEHOW, but who knows? Maybe I’ll throw it so high it has to orbit the Earth before deciding to come back down to me. Thanks for the patience and support everyone. I’ll continue to try my best, and apologies to those who feel sad about not seeing me update as often! But it means you care, so thank you! ~Hezu 

(I’m also considering moving my comics to separate blogs here on tumblr, but I have yet to find the time to truly dive into that.)

SOS your girl Jaq has been kidnapped 

[ask-jaq-and-chell]

this isn’t good... 

...or is it? 

[ask-jaq-and-chell]

Jacquelyn is upset 

Why do they always shut her out? First the moon, then the Guardians, and now Chell. Will they ever stop treating her like a child? Will she ever be seen as trustworthy? Will Chell ever speak to her again? What will it take? 

Her anger grips her heart, whipping snow 

Until she’s up in the air, where the numbing begins 

And she lets loose all that festered within her 

The mortals below, so tiny, so insignificant in that moment

Overcome by her icy wrath, they cower 

Is this what Chell wanted all along? 

Her fear?

(I completely forgot to post about this on my Jaq & Chell blog I am so sorry) 

A month and a half ago, a massive Cypress tree branch fell on my car around 10:00 in the morning, the day after Spring Semester college classes started. 

The top was completely crushed and there was hood damage and electrical damage that ended up draining the battery only a few hours after the incident. There was still another dangling branch hanging overhead and I jumped in my car and moved it out of the way. (I have a family of four, and we do not have room in our garage, so my brother and I have to park on the street.) 

Technically that tree is part of a park, meaning its County property. It took me around two weeks to sort everything out with my insurance company, and I got half the original price of my car. I made an attempt to contact the county and see if they’d help pay some of the rest (or at the very least the 1K deductible)...but they basically told me to F*ck off. Suing is too much work, but it was certainly on the list of things to do, since this park across the street has screwed us over multiple times in different ways before. /:( 

Anyhoo, I have wonderful neighbors, family, and friends. A great support group that has let me borrow their cars to get to school, ect.. However, not having a car that is truly your own, especially when I’m unemployed and nearing the end of my college years is not good. I have the sweetest relative that is gonna help fund a new car for me, and I hope I can figure out how to repay her back someday soon.

But I’m still no where near done with all this. Mid semester is in two weeks and I’ve had a lot of projects. I have been neglecting my art and all my comics the past few months. I think I got depressed and got art block through all this so I haven’t been keeping up with everything very well. So that will probably explain my absence on this blog. I love this blog so much though, you guys have no idea how sad I am that I haven’t gotten around to all the asks yet. 

Also the weather here is still pretty bad. Every few days we have a massive windy rain storm. We’ve gotten hail, flooded roads, trees are uprooting, dozens of tree branches are breaking. Power lines have gone out/went down. Two weeks ago the power went out in my neighborhood for a full 19 hours. The company took that long to figure out the problem. Neighborhood fences including mine have been blown over. Literally they are just in shambles, tipping at 40 degree angles if not completely collapsed. I don’t even have to mention how cold and muddy it’s been getting here either. My family is paranoid about more trees falling. One nearly hit my neighbor’s house behind me by a foot. So its been very dreary here too. I can’t get out an walk around much as I used to, and my garden is absolutely destroyed. I’m frankly surprised my window hasn’t shattered from the sheer force of wind yet. I don’t know when this weather will let up, but its been pretty dangerous. My friend and I have skipped college classes at least three times now because of dangerous weather conditions. SOS from California! 

I have no idea when all this will finally come to pass and when I’ll feel like myself again. So much has changed in the past few months its been tough to catch up to it all, but I’m certainly not giving up on anything. I hope I can get back to updating this blog again soon. Jaq, Chell, and I are thanking all of our followers. You guys are such sweet and creative people. I tease you so much with my replies to your asks. I can only hope what I have in store for this blog in the future will be fun to follow along with! In the meantime though, we thank you for patience with us! 

~Hezu, Jaq, and Chell 

///I also have a Patreon and Kofi set up incase any of you would like to support me financially. Whether you do or don’t, I’m still just so happy to have you guys enjoy my work!

A beast of remnants long since ‘dead’; its mind a mere hive, craving for direction. In its claws, it has stolen all that is precious to you. In its teeth, you see your death. But in its eyes, you see something truly terrifying...Deep down in all our souls, we know there’s something that scares us. Something that makes us feel hopeless to fight or flee; something that makes us freeze. 

And freeze you shall, for becoming a Night Terror’s pray...

is a fate worse than death.
