#ipre crew

[emiko-matsui]

honestly never not thinking about how the ipre destroyed ninety nine worlds on their journey and the first thing taako, magnus, and merle did when they reunited was level phandalin to the ground

Thank you! Thank you McElroy's and Carey and everyone who made these graphic novels possible and brought new life to a story that has meant so much to me, and allowed me to experience it again. Thank you.

Stay Good Under Pressure: A Candlenights Exploration

Happy Candlenights, @yourbelgianthings! I'm your secret santa nyehehe. Hope you enjoy your hefty serving of Angus McDonald with a side of IPRE pain<3

This fic is loosely built around a line from the Mountain Goats' We Have Seen The Enemy (you know the one). I also tried to intersperse as much tmg as I could! (which ended up being not that much, sadly, but I think it hits) thank you for making me insane about this.

“Hey, guys, is something going on?”

Angus was sitting in the Director's office, on one of the seats across her desk, helping the reclaimer crew navigate the Millers’ rapidly crystalizing lab.

“Guys, is something wrong? I can't hear you anymore.”

It seemed yet another one of Lucas’s experiments was proving more trouble than it was worth. From the crackling, static-ridden other end, it seemed like they had angered a robot that was meant to be a learning tool for children — only the “artificial intelligence” had obviously gotten out of control. Lucretia could not believe this was the same man she had trusted with the safety of this entire world. With the safety of her family.

“I think there's something wrong with the stones!”

The line went quiet.

“Sirs?” Angus spoke into the stone of farspeech as he looked up at her, worry raw in his eyes the way only a kid’s can show.

Lucretia reached over the desk and took the stone from his hands, trying to channel brand new arcane power into it. “Boys? Is everything alright?”

Silence.

My takes on the rest of the IPRE crew!

[shypsheesh]

A lil something I did back in April  

[raineydaywrites]

Merle Highchurch and Captain Davenport both have BIG “guy who’s in a polycule but he’s not dating anyone he’s just there” energy but in different ways. Dav isn’t interested in the crew generally and he’s their CAPTAIN so he chooses not to be part, whereas Merle doesn’t want to be part of it romantically because he’s in a DIFFERENT polycule full of people who can’t understand why they like this weird plant man.

I was in a huge slump before now but uhh I’m making an animatic again and this is a frame from it

I’m a wizard chef. I’m rushing in. I’m a worshipper of pan. I’m a lich. I’m stuck in an umbrella. I’m Davenport. I’m gonna stop this, what we’ve done to this world. I’m gonna find you a place where you can be happy again, it’s just for a little while, and then, you’ll remember, I promise. I can do this Magnus, please- please just lie down, I don’t want you to fall and hurt yourself. I love you, Magnus, I love all of you. I’m sorry, it’ll be over soon.
