Willow and Ominis: An Ice Cream Tasting
First off, credit for this commission goes to @giselsann, who never disappoints. I love this piece - there are so many details in here that she absolutely NAILED. I could go on and on and on. She's made many commissions for me over the years, and I cannot recommend her enough.
I only recently introduced Willow Abbott, my newest OC for True North (a collaborative fanfic!). My chapters for the story take place later in the plot (in December/January of that school year), but they're nearly finished, and I'm very excited to share them!
To give a small preview, here's the context of this scene: Willow's mum runs an ice cream parlour in Magical Toronto's Copway Market. Willow, who loves baking and cooking, works there during her summer breaks from Nivalis School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She is extremely creative and loves experimenting and perfecting new flavours and seasonal flavour collections for the shop. When she brings Ominis home for the holidays, she hosts him for a special ice cream tasting. He learns so much more about her passion and talent, and she discovers just how precise his senses really are in compensating for his lack of vision.
These two are adorable and so well-suited for each other. I find myself constantly giggling and kicking my feet all the time while writing their chapters.
Interested in learning more about True North? Here's a quick summary: Banished from the only lives they’ve ever known, Sebastian Sallow and Ominis Gaunt seek refuge at Nivalis, Canada’s school of witchcraft and wizardry. But fresh beginnings are fragile, and as new loves and friendships take root, something ancient and ravenous awakens in the northern wilderness.
