I will never get over Fang Runin who didn’t have the privilege of having a heart. She destroys her uterus and any chance of having a family and writes to no one in her hometown because she can’t afford to be distracted from her studies the way that her classmates can. The people around her open up about their past and their feelings and she can’t comfort them, she can only tell them to be stronger because that’s all anyone ever told her. She falls in love with someone who betrays her because his whole life’s purpose is creating a future that she can’t exist in. She actively refuses to see her enemies as people because she couldn’t live with the choices she made if she stopped to think. She couldn’t even hang onto the love she had for her best friend, the one person she loved more than anyone and swore to always protect, because she is so consumed by rage and grief and despair that in the end, she kills both him and herself.

The tragedy of Fang Runin is that she was never allowed to have a heart so she stopped considering having one to be a possibility. Everyone around her told her that her life is not her own and no one gave her a chance to be anything but a peasant or a soldier. Peasants and soldiers don’t have the privilege of love and safety and comfort. Rin’s birthright is anger and violence. And that is what kills her.

"Let Nezha come for us," she said. "I'm going to burn his heart out of his chest." -TDR, p.654.

"Ah, but history moves in cruel circles."

When I was drawing them I ended up coming to the conclusion that the music Sign of the Times by Harry Styles looks great on them (I was sad about that.)

Speer is doomed to fall and the Speerlies do not get a happy ending.

(And yes, I used the same design because it was giving me a lot of work.)

// Translation // Tradução //

"Ah, mas a história se move em círculos cruéis."

Quando eu estava desenhando eles acabei chegando a conclusão que a música Sign of the Times do Harry Styles fica ótima neles (fiquei triste com isso.)

Speer está fadado à queda e as Speerliesas não têm um final feliz.

(E sim, usei o mesmo desenho porque estava me dando muito trabalho.)

“that lovely, familiar pain”

chaghan in the burning god was so fucking funny. just rolls up out of nowhere like "hey rin. yeah im alive and i united all the hundred clans of the north for the first time in a century. it's no big deal. anyway remember that boy we were always fighting over? so i got high and talked to some ghosts and it turns out that he was actually your cousin. just thought i should let you know. also im not helping you win the war. okay byebye"

In my mind they are best friends okay?

they are my big 3

I honestly had a lot of doubt about Venka's hair. I'll probably draw her again with short hair at some point

( I found the dragon on her dress on Google, I just put it there so credit to whoever did it, you saved my life)

I detailed Qara a little more because leaving her in the cike uniform made it boring to draw 🦅
