ruin-making

Legally, there is nothing he can do. Legally.

London, 1907. Crown prosecutor Kazuma Asogi breaks.

for the pure and distant

Wei Wuxian sinks more than he sits. There’s a weight over his limbs that does not match the gauntness of his body. His wrist, just visible past the sleeve of his red-rimmed robe, seems so terribly thin. Jin Guangshan thinks of looping his fingers around it. He does not think of snapping it. That’s what he tells himself.

“The gods have come.” She knew they had—she had spoken to them, and the noise of them became at times unbearable. He had flooded her senses with the onslaught of their voices. She hadn’t forgiven him for it, yet.

Under the blood moon, the runesmith came to meet with the surgeon. He volunteered his death to her.

silken tears upon the earth befell

I remember the day the outsiders first arrived. I had just returned from prayer, and traversing the village I spotted the two newcomers. They were strange folk, entirely malequipped for the kind of winter that had arrived early. Their pristine, delicate shoes were sinking into the mud that now pervaded the roadsides. Of the academic sort, if the bound books beneath the arm of one and the robes the two of them wore were any indication to go by.

Or; A storm comes to a lone coastline hamlet where the world is to be broken.

“Your folly can little be prevented, Vicar, ” Willem retorts, shifting his weight onto his cane. “I can only attempt to contain it from consuming the world itself.”

“It is not immortality you gift,” she says gently, a lure, a bait he is enthralled with, “It is mortality you seek.” He is caught off-guard, the ground tilted beneath his feet, a minuscule shift in the careful balance of power he has played himself into within this blade’s-edge court, and it has fallen from where it’s intended to be.

for godhood is wrought of blood

Mature: Major Character Death, Graphic Violence

Fandom: Silmarillion, Tolkien Legendarium Relationships: Celebrimbor/Sauron (Silvergifting) Characters: Celebrimbor/Telperinquar, Sauron/Mairon

The swelling influence of the Elven kingdoms caught thus the notice of one who named himself Annatar, and to Eregion he arrived with little flourish yet with much to give. He came before Celebrimbor, and bowed deep in respect, which impressed the Lord for the humility of one so great as him, as a Maia, as one of the Ainur.

This death will be art

It’s because of him, isn’t it? Mairon allows himself a moment to simply stare at the fire, Mairon’s — Aulë’s forge burning hot as nothing else on Arda can. Yet its heat is only a fraction of that which he witnessed, if only briefly, from Melkor — eyes of molten lava, words of wrought iron, malleable and easy to twist into whatever the listener wants to hear. And oh, how his words are exactly what Mairon has yearned for.

[ Guilty ]

I haven't drawn in about 15 years beyond like, the occasional sketch or two a year, so of course it makes sense that the next thing I draw is... a highly ambitious stained-glass style artwork of Edgeworth. He's been rotting my brain and I realised I've been forgetting to post my latest fics so I'll be trying to catch back up on that.

Anyway Edgeworth has been living rent-free, despite my best attempts to evict him, he remains there and this is the result. Maybe this will be what gets me to start improving my art cause I do miss it.
