Kissed your lips and I tasted blood

I was in an awful mood when I started this and I needed to recklessly throw colour around. Don't ask me to recreate this style, because it was extremely haphazard. But I have been wanting to make more messy art.

Photoshop + Clip Studio Paint, ~4 hours. Progress under cut.

Photoshop is mostly the last step for post-processing stuff. I used CSP brushes for pen, gouache, oil paint, watercolour, blending, hatching... It was very much just mixing a ton of different tools.

I did trace for the sketch for this one, which is why it only took 4 hours, since getting the proportions is honestly the most time-consuming. But I intentionally tried to not worry about too much about details or it being perfect, since I quickly get bogged down in that, and I really need to fight against my perfectionism.

Harringrove YouTube AU:

Internet famous YouTuber Steve Harrington is popular for his review videos and fun vlogs with over one million followers. Despite making videos regularly he keeps a lot of his personal life private and features only a few of his friends in his videos.

Another YouTuber called Billy Hargrove usually posts surfing videos and work out videos with the odd vlog. Fans of Billy know he's seeing someone but so far all they've seen of them is their hands and if you listen closely sometimes their voice.

With Billy growing a larger and larger audience fans start to notice the similarities in locations of their favorite content creators.

people will look at billy hargrove, a teenager who's been suffering verbal and physical abuse under his father for years, whose mother has abandoned him, who's been removed from the one joy he's had left (the ocean) into bumfuck nowhere Indiana, who's being put in charge of his sister (who he thinks is perfectly capable of being on her own) by the sacrifice of his own free time, who's being objectified by most girls and adult women around him, who gets homophobically ridiculed by his own father for putting effort into his appearance, and they'll go "yeah i get all that but why isn't he nice about it? :("

Billy in season 3 of Stranger things [from]

Billy takes Steve out into the vast wide ocean

"We'll stargaze. Have you ever looked at the stars when there's water all around you and dark waves lull you gently?"

So they lie on their surfboards and go a little bit further away from the shore line, and it's so beautiful their hearts ache

Especially Steve's, he's really never seen, never experienced something like that before

And they look at the stars, and the waters are kind and warm and soothing, and they kiss, and Billy even manages to jerk Harrington off, right there on the surfboard

Steve's breath is taken away, it feels like he's in a fairly tale, magic surrounds them, and the world is truly, endlessly amazing.

The only unfortunate thing is that the boys get so carried away by the magic, they absolutely lose caution

So when Steve asks

"Maybe we should get back home? I wanna do stuff with you."

It turns out they are pretty far from the shore.

Well, fuck.

"Are we gonna die?" Steve's panicking. "If we die, Billy, please know you are the love of my life and I'll love you forever even after my heart stops beating. Oh my god, I love you so much .."

"Just paddle." Grits Hargrove. "Let's paddle, Stevie."

Max calls rescue services in the morning when she stops by their place, doesn't find them there, no surfboards, and they are not on the beach. Maybe they drove somewhere far, but she thinks it's better to be on the safe side.

My apologies, but I felt led to write a Joan of arc’esq reply to “Haircut”

Max had cried that night until her stomach hurt. Not for the hair itself. Never for the hair. Hair grew back. But because she had seen something extinguished in Billy’s eyes. Something sacred. Something already wounded and hanging by threads before Neil had reached in with clippers and cruelty and stripped him bare like a punishment display.

Billy had stood there like a boy awaiting execution.

And nobody had stopped it.

The grief hit her again now, sharp enough to bend her in half. Tears slid silently down her cheeks as she picked up the clippers. Not for herself. Not out of fear. But for Billy, who had spent his entire life being carved apart by a man who mistook brutality for fatherhood.

Then the grief hardened.

Transformed.

Max stared at herself in the mirror — red hair falling over her shoulders, eyes swollen with fury too old for thirteen years. Something inside her settled with terrible clarity. Neil wanted Billy marked. Humiliated. Singular in his suffering.

Fine. Then she would become the evidence too.

The first pass of the clippers sounded almost holy in the silent bathroom. A brutal mechanical hum followed by the whisper of hair sliding into the sink. Max did not flinch. Did not hesitate. Red strands tumbled around her feet like sacrificial offerings.

She watched herself disappear piece by piece.

Not as punishment. As declaration.

Each strip of exposed scalp felt less like destruction and more like armor being forged. Let Hawkins stare tomorrow. Let teachers whisper. Let neighbors recoil when they saw what she had done to herself. Questions would come, and Max would make certain those questions led straight back to Neil Hargrove.Because Billy would hide what happened to him. Shame had been beaten into him too deep.

But Max?

Max could become impossible to ignore.

By the time the clippers finally fell silent, her reflection looked almost saintlike in its devastation. Pale scalp. Tearstained face. Eyes burning with something fierce and unshakable. Like a child martyr preparing herself for war.She looked down at the mound of red and blond hair tangled together in the sink.Billy would probably be furious, Maybe horrified, Maybe heartbroken all over again.But for the first time since yesterday, Max felt steady.

Neil had tried to make Billy carry the shame alone. He was going to learn what happened when someone decided to drag the truth into daylight instead.

AHHHHHH! WHATTTTT 😭😭

DON’T APOLOGISE!!? THANK UUUU FOR WRITING THISSS! I CAN’T BELIEVE SME WROTE SMTH FOR MEEEE?? IM HONOURED 🥹❤️‍🩹

this is so beautifullll! I love the defiance in max but I’m also heartbroken. I absolutely LOVE the idea of her cutting her own hair! I hadn’t thought of going down that route! but I’m trying to imagine the reactions of susan, neil, her friends and ofc billy! the idea of them having matching haircutssss!! I thought I was kinda done with the haircut mini series, but this has inspired a tonnn more ideas!! like even imagining the reactions at school toooo…..I hav half-written smth from steve’s pov about billy going into school acting all cocky and confident whilst people whisper about him in the corridor, but only steve knows the truthhhh! add to him seeing max 😭😭 I think I need a minute to calm down!! maybe I’ll continue that??

THANK U FOR THIS ANON 😚😚
