Lost Brother: Vasili Thorne

I read that in Crimes of Passion 2 and couldn't help but picture the deliciously diabolic scene in my mind. I couldn't believe Pixelberry denied us art. That was a crime! So I commissioned the lovely and super-talented @oh-so-youre-a-nerd to help restore justice to the land... well, fandom, lol Here is the evil brother... and that's saying a lot in the Thorne family! Thank you for bringing this to life, Thia! You're the best!

Every CoP2 chapter is like

Trystan: I'm incredibly horny

MC: good

The fucking queen yet again, appearing out of nowhere: Trystan I am now forcing you to leave for the better half of this chapter

MC + all of us: this is the worst thing that's ever happened to me

Some rando: hello, I'm Thorne sibling #417318461876 and here's the most insane thing you've heard in your entire life so far

MC: getting real murder vibes from these people

Trystan: I'm back and still horny but in a tired way now

MC: Trystan your siblings are insane I think they all murdered people

Trystan: yeah that tracks

Thorne sibling #417318461876: i will now act like a serial killer for the entire duration of this interrogation. btw, here's a cliffhanger

Marguerite: *making something ugly for us to wear*

Trystan x Gabriel by artbyainna (IG)

I wanted art that was in keeping with the cover photo for this book but more in keeping with the characters because I refuse to believe the detective or Trystan would go all TRR on us like that cover art is attempting to make us believe.

- aka I wanted cover art that was less generic -

I also wanted to redeem that disaster of a coronation outfit for the detective. I went with something in keeping with the whole royal vibe but something that wasn’t so stuffy and old, because I’m tired of PB making Mags designs look so boring and off. She’s better than PB, I just know it.

Ainna definitely delivered and then some! I just can’t get over how amazing she is with taking my ideas and two entirely different outfits and making something magical out of them!

[Background is a manipulation of the PB cover art]

[Gabriel’s outfit is inspired by an design from Ellie Saab’s Fall/Winter 2022 line and one from Zaid Nakad’s Spring/Summer 2023 line]

Waiting for Trystan Thorne

Hiii, back again with another art to post! I’m totally aware that I still have WIP and my current mode is to create another and another again🥴. I remember someone posted in regards to royal dinner outfit was like a Christmas tree together with Trystan (although they're not currently present in the art). I’m laughing the thought of it🤣😭, so since its Christmas I thought this will be the perfect one to be shared hehe. A Merry Christmas Everyone💖. I hope you all having a lovely and meaningful celebration with your love ones and I sincerely thank everyone for being patient with me. Characters by Pixelberry Studios @playchoices

If the cap fits...

I don't care where you live; you must have heard me scream when I opened this treasure from @/artbyainna this morning! Agh! Look at my babies! I already had a commission planned for them when I created Trystan's Holiday Recap, where we learned about Carolina's gift. It was @lilyoffandoms who said, "I need the art of this, STAT!" and I wrote Ainna and said, "We need to make an adjustment." lol I hope the CoP fans out there love this half as much as I do, because that would be a whole lot. There's a little drabble below to accompany this.

Book: Crimes of Passion Pairing: Trystan Thorne x Carolina Rose (F!MC) Words: 740 Rating: Teen Summary: Carolina has a little surprise for her prince, but how will he take it?

@choicesjanuary2024 - Day 12 - Transformation (because Trystan has certainly undergone one.)

Crimes of Passion Masterlist | My Main Masterlist

It was early evening, the sun was just beginning to set, and Trystan was anxious to put the work day behind him. He was shoving folders into his desk and about to lock the drawers when Carolina sauntered in. If there was one thing that could distract him, no matter what he was doing, she was it. His eyes lingered over her with every step, the puppy-dog look on his face so unbecoming for a Drakovian royal, but there was no use fighting it; he had long since given in. But there was something different about her today. She appeared less tense, relaxed even. The gleam in her eye and the devious little smile tugging at her lips told him one thing for sure: she was up to something.

She plopped down on the chair before him, crossing her legs and placing a brown paper shopping bag on the desk before meeting his eyes with a playful yet seductive stare. Trystan couldn't keep a straight face any longer.

“All right, what are you up to?”

“Me,” she responded coyly, holding her hands in mock horror. “What on earth suggests that I’m up to something, Detective Thorne?”

“That smile, that tone, that deliciously playful look in your eyes... what are you doing, Carolina Rose?”

“Well,” she pulled the bag to her lap. “I may have gotten you an early Christmas present.”

Trystan’s face fell. “No. You can’t give me anything yet! I don't have anything to give you.”

“I don’t need anything,” she smiled. “Besides, I know I’m helpless at stopping you from spoiling me as the month progresses.”

“You’re learning,” he smirked. “So, what’s in the bag?”

She gleefully stuck her hand in and held out a black baseball cap... not the dark navy of the Yankee caps he had become so familiar with... and this one had white lettering; he took it in his hand to read.

“Armchair detective... armchair detective? What does this mean?”

With a little giggle, more fitting for a schoolgirl than the hardened detective she had become, Carolina began to explain.

“Have you heard the term armchair quarterback? It means someone who watches football, insisting they know better than the coach on the field. They bark orders at the coach and scream as if they're the coach, all from the comfort of their couch with a bag of Cheetos at their side.”

“I’m familiar with the term, dear,” he replied sarcastically. “But what is an armchair det...” his mouth hung open as realization set in. “Are you saying I’m an armchair detective?”

“Well,” she teased. “You’ve had some success, I’ll give you that, but you are still very much a newb.”

“So... I’m the armchair detective?” he was bordering on insulted, but Carolina just shrugged playfully.

“I mean, if the cap fits....”

“So then, what does that make you?”

“Funny you should ask that,” she grinned, reaching into the bag to retrieve one more item. Flipping her long golden brown hair back, she placed a cap on her head, carefully tucking any loose tendrils within. Trystan leaned closer to see what hers said, and in a matching font, it declared: Detective.

“Detective?” he asked.

“Well, that’s what it says on my tax form.”

Unable to keep a straight face, she doubled over in a fit of giggles.

“I am deeply hurt,” he scolded with the tone of a man who had been destined to be king.

“You know I'm joking, baby. But come on let's take a selfie! Our friends will love this!"

“I think not.”

“Come on! Where is your sense of humor?”

“Oh, I have no problem with the selfie. I don't even have a problem with your pale attempt at humor... but there is no way I am messing up my crowning glory by wearing that cap.”

To drive his point home, he flipped his head back, running his hands through his luxurious locks, as Carolina looked on with amusement. 

“You are such a diva!”

“I am,” he declared proudly, rolling his chair over to hers and pulling her into a tender kiss. “But I’m your diva.”

“And don’t you forget it!”

“Never!” he smiled smugly, pulling his phone from his pocket.

“What are you doing?” Carolina asked.

“Ordering us t-shirts.”

“T-shirts? What kind?”

“His and hers... mine will say Diva... you, my love, are an Armchair Diva.”

“Hey,” she said with a laugh, "if the shirt fits..."
