art credits + some cover commentary under the cut :)
I had a lot of fun finding/using artworks with circles, lines, and shapes to symbolize different worlds/universes and/or the passage of time...
Artworks used, in order:
"Several Circles" by Wassily Kandinsky (1926)
"To all appearances, it was a hand of flesh and blood just like my own" by Odilon Redon (1896) — A ghostly hand that fits the plot. The artwork's title goes with the fic so well too...
"(#2) (from series, Quantum)" by Garo Antreasian (1966)
"The story of the sun, moon, and stars (1898)" by Agnes Giberne — inspired by the summary "Somewhere along the way, Draco realizes he's been thinking in lines, when he should have been thinking in circles." The original artwork comes with a caption 'Stars whose distances are well-known'... I really feel that it fits since Draco was named after a constellation... Also, the star-circles have numbers on them, which could be interpreted as H/D through different ages...
Max Brückner’s Collection of Polyhedral Models (1900) — Exploring different parallel universe versions of yourself... the more things change, the more they stay the same.
"Construction (SM lg71)" by László Moholy-Nagy (1924) — some mild spoilers for the fic! inspired by the phrases "...plot a path through the many universes such that he would never die." / "flickering through timelines? Just getting glimpses, really" .
"Fish Magic" by Paul Klee (1925)
"The Terrace at Saint-Germain, Spring" by Alfred Sisley (1875)
"Arrival of the Normandy Train, Gare Saint-Lazare" by Claude Monet (1877)
"Charing Cross Bridge: Fog on the Thames" by Claude Monet (1903) — referenced in the fic. i try to pay attention!
"Boy with Kite" by Candido Portinari (1947) — Harry is a precious little lamb. more elaboration here
i’ve been making penguin classics-style covers for fics i have saved on my kindle, as inspired by zeziliazink and bubu0h’s works!
hi!! do you happen to know why seefin (ao3 author) deleted?
Hi there! Iirc they got published, you can still find their works on ao3 since they were orphaned but not deleted. Here’s a great post compiling most links :)
Hi Ale! I was just wondering if you knew whether Seefin has left fandom or goes under a different username now? I noticed I couldn't find their blog or writing on Ao3
hey lovely! Yeah, they're not on tumblr anymore and they've orphaned their fics on AO3, though you can still find the majority of them.
If you search the tag #seefin on AO3 you can find all the works by them that people have bookmarked like that!
“You’re brilliant. I don’t know what it says about me that I kind of like it when you’re being snobby, but I really like it when you’re being snobby.”
Draco sniffed. “Yes, well,” he said. “I like it when you’re easygoing about me being mean. It makes things approximately a billion times easier.”
“I know,” Potter said feelingly, “Can you imagine what we’d be like if I took every little thing you said seriously?”
“I think we’d have a few more actual arguments,” Draco replied.
“I think that’s an understatement,” Potter responded
Harry Potter and the Future He Doesn't Really Want, Thanks. by seefin
“I’m in love with your house,” Potter said, and sank further down into the bath. He’d left the bathroom door open so that he could talk to Draco in the kitchen, and kept saying inane comments like I’m in love with your house while Draco was trying to work.
Draco looked over at him. Potter sometimes wore his glasses in the bath, which Draco found to be more charming than anything else, which in itself was probably a warning sign of some sort. “I don’t blame you,” Draco said. “Your house is an absolute wreck.”
“It’s not as bad as all that,” Potter said, which was an outright lie. “Neville really spruced the place up when he brought those peace plants home from work.”
Draco yawned. “I’m still not letting you move in,” he said, putting his application to the side. It was fine; he’d hand it in tomorrow when he walked Potter to the tube station.
Potter frowned. “I didn’t ask,” he said grumpily.
“You’re gearing up to it,” Draco said, making his way over to the bathroom. He took his trousers off. “I can tell.”
Potter eyed him hopefully. “You getting in?” he said.
“It’s my bath,” Draco told him, pushing Potter’s legs out of the way. “You won’t hog the floor space, I simply won’t allow it.”
37. What would you do if you found $50 on the ground? Honestly? I would donate a bit of it and save the rest. That’s a boring answer, so here are my most recent impulse purchases: button down shirt patterns and vanilla perfume imps.
41. What can you hear right now? My fan, and a slight rattling of paper when it catches a sketchpad.
