All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
So, here we are! My second commission from @iesnoth and, since the cat is out of the bag, yes, it's Artemis, and yes, she is a trans girl.
The journey that lead to this has been a long one. Initially I didn't even intend this to be a thing, it's just that some lines while writing Fools' Paradise - The night of Samain happened and then I told myself, why not? Why shouldn't I? After all, it's not my fault if Artemis is so queer coded. And what was supposed to be a fanfiction with an end in itself has become a journey into Artemis' discovery of herself. So for the moment here she is, in front of a mirror and completely dumbfounded (yes, such a rare emotion for Artemis) while she suddenly understands things she would have never imagined. Luckly for her, she has Minerva by her side.
Also, since I love seeing how art is created, here is the lineart version:
Here the final sketch:
And here the first sketch, which iesnoth did based on my description (as you can see aside the final sketch, Artemis can only dream those hips lol)
You can read it here!
