hi there, it’s probably been eons since you’ve thought about sugar apple fairy tale, but i just thought i’d stop by and say thanks! your post on hugh and kat’s relationship made me feel a little less lonely in my delulu- and also really grateful for people who are able to keep whimsy and fun in fandom spaces- so thank you, from the other kat/hugh shipper floating aimlessly on this app,,, i’m happy your here!
Oh you are welcome, precious. Your words were really heartwarming, I'm glad my little art inspired someone to love this ship.
Honestly, when I first saw them in the anime, my first thought was "Wow, you have a spicy relationship for JUST ex-friends". But there was very little direct interaction between them in the anime. So I found the full novel (all 17, I think) in Japanese and threw it into the translator (which was quite an experience, I literally broke Google Translate). In the next books, after the end of season 2, their relationship gets more and more interesting. But no one in the English community knew about it! So I may have been the first one to start drawing for this ship.
Heh, I still have two paired keychains with them.
Maybe I should find those fanfic crumbs of them I wrote last year and throw it on AO3.
Anyway, here, my dear, some extra art of them for you that I forgot to post a while back.
