Wanted to do a Scorpia Rising Alex Rider piece that’s just absolutely filled with rage and contempt for MI6
Comms open!
#alex rider#my art#alan blunt#scorpia#scorpia rising#I have soooooo many thought abt the symbolism in this#basically post-scorpia rising I imagine Alex angry as fuck#because he’s been forced to give literally everything he has to this fight and it’s cost him everything#but he has still listened to them and done as they asked and taken down scorpia#and all they can offer is a polite thanks and blunt retiring and a pinky promise not to use him again#he’s lost people. he’s taken bullets and ruined his education and friendships#and now he’s killed in cold blood. not bc he had to. not because it was self defense. bc he wanted to#and so maybe there’s a part of him that is remembering when he chose not to shoot Mrs jones and wonders if he would still stop#that thinks maybe I should stop playing nice with them#it’s only lucky for them that they’ve lost their leverage so now they have to let Alex go#tw blood#tw death#tw guns
