This piece is based on something I’m doing for a creative writing unit:
Fortune's Bluff centres on Finn Gallagher, a reluctant fortune teller who took up the profession to earn some extra cash over the summer. Much to his astonishment, Finn soon realises that his predictions are eerily accurate. Before he can get used to this new reality, his world is turned further upside down when he experiences the daunting vision of a clients’ murder.
Newest work:
I haven’t been doing fanart or reading fanfics for a while now unfortunately (a fate worse than death) due to my uni coursework overflowing, but here’s something I did in my downtime over the span of a few months
I know it’s 2020 but Merlin AU where Uther notices a bunch of problems that could only be solved by magic ~spontaneously~ getting solved around Arthur, and concludes that this must be a side effect of Arthur only existing due to magical intervention. An intense bigotry-versus-parental-love internal conflict commences, followed by some that’s-pretty-hypocritcal-of-you-isn’t-it-dad screaming external conflict, generally upending everything. Merlin is standing in the corner the entire time holding a serving jug of mead and sweating.
Morgana, dramatically slamming open the throne room doors with both arms: I’M ALSO UNWILLINGLY MAGIC. Arthur: What???? Morgana, raising one fist at him: Solidarity, motherFUCKER! Arthur: What????????
What’s Uther gonna do? What’s he gonna fucking do???? Execute his secret Scottish child, but not his nonsecret blond heir child??? They’re ganging up on him now. He’s fucking cornered.
#what a way for Arthur to get dumped into this drama#I’M PRETTY SURE I AM NOT MAGIC#“you keep killing things that can only be killed by magic tho’#…full disclosure i often don’t remember it#so sometimes you black out and accomplish magical feats?#NO! ( @whetstonefires )
This is about the part where Merlin escalates to chugging the royal mead.
At some point someone mentions that an eyewitness would be great. And they all realize that Merlin is persent for all these things and start asking Merlin what it looks like when Arthur performs these magical feats. And he’s half way through the royal mead so fuck it. And he starts talking about how Arthur glows and shit. And usually Merlin has to knock him on the head to get him to stop glowing and whooshing and what not and the idea that Merlin could be saving the prince from his own magical distraction is so absurd they decide it’s just a drunk idiot telling tales.
Knfsdfs “Are you telling me that every time I blacked out you knocked me out!?” “…You know what? That’s actually accurate.”
i would die for this.
somebody please.
Merlin, really getting into this: It was to save you from your own magic, sire. I had no other choice. That’s… That’s what you do, you see a born sorcerer and you just wham, knock them out for their own good.
Morgana, thinking about her sleeping draughts: It’s true Arthur that’s what they do.
Arthur: I’m.
Morgana: But it’s fine look we just have to win Merlin over to the side of magic.
Merlin: …
Merlin: I don’t know guys, that’s going to be a tough sell.
Merlin: I just. I just don’t know if I could be persuaded.
Arthur: Merlin, you aren’t even from Camelot. Why would you have anti-magic biases.
Merlin: But you’re always so insistent magic is eeeevil.
Merlin: Maybe you should persuade me. Tell me what’s so great about sorcerers.
Morgana: Well–
Merlin: No, I want to hear him say it.
Merlin blatantly and magically refills the jug with more mead: What? Why’d you stop? Keep talking about how great sorcerers are Arthur. Come on now, you were just getting to the good parts.
it got better
@anarchycox This seems up your alley, yeah? probably @trekkiepirate too…
Not quite done yet, but these are what I’ve been focusing on recently (and getting back into writing)
(I swear to fuck, tumblr keeps tanking my image quality T_T)
Had a weird dream about this giant gothic(?) building in a hellfire(?) landscape, with a tiny hooded figure entering into the red light… no idea what it means but it was too cool not to visualise so
Gwen has always been a ✨queen✨- it just took a while for the rest of Camelot to get their shit together and give her the crown
(and some fun tonal variations)
((fuck, I’m so proud of my progress))
Haven’t posted in ages, but I’ve begun drawing random cityscapes and scenes out of objects on my desk in-between uni work. The second one is an aquarium made out of my hot chocolate thermos. It’s fun because I never under how to backgrounds, but you can see my learning to get more creative! :))
I fucking love this last one - my absolute favourite so far because of the purple highlights I thought to add on the back of the robot because of ambient starlight
Fighting for my life trying to get any kind of creative writing done. I just keep putting blah blah down when I can’t think and half the chapter is just blah blah (explain the next scene), like what 🥲 I promise I’m trying
My ao3 is General_Jellyfish if anyone is interested
Merlin Reverse Big Bang!
I had a lovely time working with remaymber, so check out their work on Ao3!! They wrote the accompanying fic Watching you like I’m in love, and it’s truly wonderful 🥰
Artist summary:
Arthur often found himself watching Merlin. In the beginning, he thought Merlin was your average (if insolent and slightly stupid) farm-boy graced with the great fortune of becoming Arthur’s manservant (much to both their ire). But the more he watched and the more Merlin began to intertwine with every aspect of his life, Arthur realised. . . Merlin was the greatest thing that ever happened to him.”
@bbcmerlin-reversebang
Gonna post my BBC Merlin Reverse Bang pieces (and I link to the fic written for the) on Monday the 13th of this month.
Y’all aren’t ready.
Hello Everyone
I’ve just opened an IMPRNT shop for my art! This is the link
I don’t have the ability to print and ship my art on my own unfortunately, so I’ve signed up with the site so the fine people of this site can own a physical copy of my works 🥰
The site offers Photo prints, Canvas prints and Metal prints among other options.
This is a collection of the works I will be putting up, as well as any future portraits and select comic pieces I complete:
Here’s the link again if you decide you wanna help out an aspiring artist
I do think it would be a very funny fic to read where the magic reveal happens at the perfect intersection of Arthur trusts Merlin implicitly, and Uther is still alive and a raging asshole, and Arthur’s solution isn’t to nobly send Merlin away and pine miserably. Oh no. He finds a medieval fantasy version of a squirt bottle and squirts Merlin with it whenever Arthur catches him using magic like Merlin is a cat that keeps trying to chew electric cords.
@cinnabon-sweetroll-tiramisu please draw this
Omg the imagery lmaoooooo tis purrfection
This entire premise is hilarious, so of course I had to make a little cartoon about it
Some finished and unfinished concept sketched
Baby totally-not-a-future-killer Mordred fanart
Kind of gave up on his eyes towards the end because this has been a wip for a year now so. Yeah. Hope y’all like it though 🥰
Sorry it’s been a while, got caught up with some Reverse Big Bang pieces I can’t reveal yet 🥰
I can reveal this unrelated WIP though. It’s in its butt-fuck ugly stage where I know it’s good and on the right track but everything is messy and ew to look at, but I gotta learn to be more chill about art so-
It’s based off this classic amazing manip by @darasmithville (edit: I was informed this is the og post, but feel free to correct me if I’m wrong):
“You're given this life and all these years and you just fade away without leaving a mark. What kind of story would that be?” - A. Synthia
Also also, I have been attacked by bots recently. I think I report and block about… 5 a day? Apparently I’ve blocked 103 overall which T-T. So, if you wanna follow my stuff, I may ended accidentally blocking you if you ain’t got something in your profile. Sorry 😔
