My art piece for @castalianspring’s fic Tenderness and Kindness Can Also Make a Man for the @rnmbigbang 2024! I had a great time making art for this fic about discovering self expression as a queer adult, and how that follows Alex through his life. Everyone should check it out!

Serpientes de las Supersticiones (3/?)

Chapter 3

The world of men is dreaming, it has gone mad in its sleep, and a snake is strangling it, but it can't wake up. - D. H. Lawrence

Liz held onto Maria, rubbing her arm gently as she did. Relishing the closeness despite the heat. Her friend seemed worn. Tired. And maybe it was just the memories of Patty, but maybe it was because Liz had dragged them all out on this hairbrained trip. “Sorry about that.” Michael stepped out of the house again, carefully closing the door. “She sometimes…” “Wanders.” Maria filled in. A soft, sad smile on her mouth. “My grandma did, too. How long has it been happening?”  Michael looked at her for a long beat, before he shrugged, as if trying to pretend to be nonchalant. “Since I was about eight or nine.” “That’s a long time.” Liz frowned. Her curiosity piqued. “What do the doctors say?” “Don’t get many of them out here,” Michael said, making his way to the table of busted car parts. “Town healer said there’s nothing he could do.”

In order to start letting people see him again, he needs to figure out who he is and who he wants to be, to let his outer self reflect what he feels on the inside. If he treats it a little like a mission, well…who says the concepts of gender and sexuality can’t be approached strategically?

Written for the @rnmbigbang 2024, with art by @life-drawing-wizard, who did such an amazing job taking the scenes I had imagined and making them come to life! Thank you so much for sharing your talents with me <3

Lego art for @dayscrazed's fic The Dictator's Circle, a sweet, fun AU for the @rnmbigbang 2024! Featuring teen!Malex, Michael growing up with Nora on Earth, plenty of alien shenanigans, and an epic battle against Jones on Oasis.

I had so much fun recreating the different scenes and bringing such a large cast of characters to minifig life, especially with creating a Lego version of Oasis to act as a backdrop for a lot of photoshop silliness.

This was also the first time I've experimented with painting Lego pieces to meet specific visual requirements - Michael's hair was a particular challenge! Thanks to dayscrazed for giving me so much freedom to play; I had an absolute blast!

Happy Big Bang everyone! To kick off the collection this year, here's my contribution!!! @rnmbigbang

Nora risked everything when she formed the resistance. Playing double-agent, she pretended to be close to The Dictator so she could bring him down. Keep your enemies close. In this AU, she flees Oasis with only Michael on her ship. Through flashbacks, we get a look at what it was like in The Dictator’s inner circle for Nora and other members of Ophiuchus.

And from Michael’s perspective, from the present, he finds out the hard way about the sacrifices his mother had to make when she fled her planet and hid secrets from The Dictator and Michael, himself. When the past comes back to haunt them all, Michael trusts the three aliens he meets and confides in his best friend/ crush, Alex, to discover his mother’s plans and help save an alien planet.

Inspired by The Shadowhunter Chronicles and Valentine’s Circle.

The most heartfelt and sincere thanks to @castalianspring for the absolutely incredible art in the form of lego scenes!!! Seeing scenes I created manifested in cute lego figures is a joy and an excitement beyond words. Please enjoy the astounding lego depictions in each Michael POV chapter!
