HELLO HELLO IT'S ME AGAIN! It's my pleasure to present to everyone the accompanying artworks to my partner's (@youve-cath-to-be-kitten-me) #AvatriceBigBang entry: CODA

“I’m Ava, by the way. Ava Silva.” She extends her arm for a handshake and uses the other to push the hair out of her face. “Normally my introductions don’t involve hitting people with doors.”  Beatrice takes it, and Ava’s hands are warm as she shakes her hand enthusiastically. “Beatrice Young.”

Ava sees Beatrice turn downstage, mourning the fact that she's too far to get as good of a look at her expression that she wants. But she squints through the glass of the booth window anyway, and when Beatrice’s expression shifts Ava lights up with recognition, hand lifting of its own accord until her fingertips brush the glass in front of her. Even from this distance she knows it. She saw it this morning, the night before, the night before that. Again and again and again and again.  Because what I feel for you, how I feel about you, it’s just as much of a great love story as the one I’m telling on stage.

The art in front of her is thousands of years old, probably worth more than any fortune, but she chooses to look away, to turn her face to Ava. Someone far more articulate, a poet maybe, would have some words about that. Something about how in a room full of priceless things she chooses to look at Ava instead. Beatrice could scour her brain for it, a quote that would put this all into words. But the truth is, poetry has never held a candle to Ava either, so she stays exactly as she is.

And that's it, folks! Thank you for everyone who supported me and my partners throughout this Avatrice Big Bang event, especially my partners who are very patient to me! You guys are the MVP.

Slowly, her eyes open and flutter a few times - then they find her. “Beatrice,” she smiles - it’s a magnificently designed smile. “You woke me.”

Hello hello! I’m very happy to share the artworks I made for #AvatriceBigBang! Teamed up with itsAlliebithway for their Christmas Concert AU!

Ava moved her bow with so much grace that it reminded Beatrice of a reverent caress. She was one with her instrument, her fingers dancing over the neck of the cello like she wanted to play all the notes simultaneously.

She held her hand out for the cello case, but instead of giving it over, Ava took her hand and followed Beatrice across the street.

Almost as if she wasn’t thinking about it, she lifted one hand to Beatrice’s left one, correcting her ring finger on the neck of the instrument. It felt like they were in a lesson. It also felt like electricity was cursing through her from the point where Ava touched her.

Beatrice wondered what freedom tasted like. An hour ago, she hadn’t even thought about the fact that she’d lived in captivity, but now she wanted to at least try to see what the outside was like.
