some imperial radch character designs i drew as i was reading!!

the best thing about breq and seivarden is they both end up with girlfriends/ships who will NOT put up with their unintentionally thoughtless bullshit, even if it means prompting them to have a full on mental breakdown as a result. Mercy of Kalr and Ekalu may not have been picked out by destiny to be main characters, but like HELL they're gonna let the mc's take them or their feelings for granted

like social hierarchy be damned- Fleet Captain Justice of Toren "Breq" One Esk Nineteen and very ''senior' officer Lieutenant Seivarden Vendaai will drink the "respect your partner" juice or perish and they both love their gfs/ships all the more for it <3

So I am very late to this train, but I just finished Ancillary Mercy and checked out ao3 for fics and am I missing something or is everyone sleeping on Seivarden/Basnaaid? Please allow me to make my case:

Who better to deal with Seivarden than the stubbornest person in the universe? Basnaaid handles things that may be very upsetting to her in a mature manner without becoming stone, which is something that Seivarden could definitely learn from and a characteristic that would be great in a partner for her.

Home girl Basnaaid is not interested in fancy clientage offers, which is fine because Seivarden doesn’t have anything backing her house name other than “oooh, it’s old.”

They are both conveniently located in Awn’s shadow and would both like to be catapulted away from that role immediately.

Their actual canon interactions are nice and not drama-filled like with Ekalu. No shade to Ekalu, just that “she’s hot and good in bed” is not a good reason to pursue a relationship with someone who offends you every time she opens her mouth.

I very much want peoples’ opinions on this, because perhaps I’m just not understanding. I also get that people have different ships and different tastes, just surprised more people didn’t spot this one.

The brilliant artist IC, who made my gift for the Ro2SID exchange, isn’t on tumblr, but has given me permission to share this lovely piece of Ekalu and Seivarden on a date:

Important Questions Regarding The Presence of Trees

“Boo!” A small figure with the face of a Fallen Captain burst into the corner of Ordan’s vision. “Hello Ekalu.” He replied, keeping his attention on the dismantled auto-rifle laid out in front of him. “Hi. Hi Umbra. What do you think? I thought about getting the Vex one, but I like this one be...
