Tommy Arnold, artist for the book covers, just posted this on Instagram:

He’s mentioned an upcoming apparel drop, so I suspect it’s to do with that rather than an Alecto cover reveal specifically but still very exciting!

can YOU spot the baby?

"dulcinea" is such a perfect name for her.

i know that tasmyn muir is damn good with words, but this naming is honestly next-level; maybe i'm reading too much into it, but i love it anyway.

"dulcinea" just fits her so well. it shares a beginning with "dulcet" - something sweet, pleasant, and usually referring to sound (and we all know dulcinea loves to yap, lol). the ending of the name brings to mind nature and femininity, because the suffix "-inea" is latin (as a lot of terms in tlt tend to be, at least in root) and refers to both feminine nouns or animal subclasses. dulcinea as a character is sweet and chatty and feminine and also vaguely animalistic - dripping with blood and smiling through it.

[ofroseandivory]

very pleased with myself; i saw fanart of dulcinea before i started gtn and tagged @trigona-necrophaga in the comments saying "shes so pretty and she looks like a pastel version of you!" then i met her in gtn and fell desperately in love. in-character of me. dulcinea i don't know anything about you but i love you

Mercy could have stopped harrow’s heart with a tap on the shoulder. Instead she’s all “I wanted to be nice, so I dulled some pain receptors stabbed her in the back and left her to bleed out and get eaten alive.” Wtf Mercy. That is not nice.

You ever put an objectively hideous outfit together in 24 hrs and then spend a disproportionate amount of time getting ready and driving to stay less than an hour at a con to see some homies, attend a gathering, and serve face before taking more disproportionate time driving to work that will end late night b/c you aren’t actually off that day? AI could never 😏

One of my belts left black marks all across where it was so now I can’t wear this dress without them 😅
