I was commissioned to do a version of the cover of Tamora Pierce’s Shatterglass that gave Tris a more accurate body type. It was neat working on it and sort of making it my own. Also I got to draw a tiny glass dragon.
Something summery in September! Big thanks to all the patrons who made this possible ❤ ❤
The Patreonrequest vote for the month was a dead tie between Aveline and Merrill planting a garden and a Krem picture which should be coming soon, because even with my tiebreaking privileges I can’t let that opportunity pass me by!! But I hope Aveline’s beef will tide y’all over in the meantime. (Isabela definitely stole the hat for Merrill.)
What if….Victoria was a closeted lesbian and accidentally marries Emily—who is bisexual—instead of it being Victor?

In all seriousness though, I’ve always had this idea in my head since I first watched this movie twice in theaters and I’m finally making it come true because dammit I want to; this alternate story would’ve made my heart soar back when I was in the closet and had an embarrassing crush on Emily
I’ve seen several people complain that the adults of A Series of Unfortunate Events are “too stupid” and that it damages the story. Please allow me to clarify something:
No adults in ASOUE is stupid. 100% of them are willfully ignorant, and it’s an important distinction.
Justice Strauss is too timid and needy to critically think about the red flags around her.
Mr. Poe cares more about his job than the people it affects.
Uncle Monty is so self-involved that he assumes that Stephano is after him.
Aunt Josephine is simply too afraid to consider the idea that terrible things may be nearby.
This is not a story of “Adults are dumb”. It is a story about how people can contribute to evil and cruelty simply by being passive or refusing to confront it.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke
That is what the series is about. It’s an important distinction. The Baudelaires do not suffer from random fools that happen to be near them. The Baudelaire Orphans are receiving the sum total of the failings of society crashing upon them.
