Her & I
My friend and I got bored and wrote this so here goes
I loved my husband. His name was Ike, and he was the sweetest, kindest and most faithful husband in the world. That is until that day.
Let me go back, before the marriage, before… everything. All the way back to third grade, rural Michigan, 1976, when I met her. Barbara. She was a nice girl with long black hair that fell to her hips. I guess I always liked her, but in third grade Barbara was just my best friend. We spent our days together, swinging beside eachother on the playground. We spent all our years beside each other.
It was in eighth grade when I realized that I liked her more than a friend. We went to prom together, insisting we were just friends, but that was all my ploy to get her to look at me in that light. She never did. Not until that other night. But we’re not there yet.
Attending some Michigan University, we rented an apartment, 1988. Barbara and I were still close, but I met a man in my biology class and we hit it off great. I’ve since realized that I never truly loved him romantically, but that does not excuse his later actions. Ike and I dated for 5 years comfortably before we married, and it was a joyous day.
We were living a happy, close life together in our home when Barbara’s parents died tragically in a fire, leaving her a fortune. It was a sad funeral, but Barbara was soon back on her feet, and eager to invest said fortune into online crypto currency. She lost it all at once, and had to move into Ike and my basement. We would talk together during the night, but Ike was a heavy sleeper. Her being so close led perfectly into that day and that other day.
Now, to the present.
My room, midnight, 2005. That day. I was on a work trip, and my flight was delayed to the next day, so I came home early to find Ike and Barbara having a grand old time in our bed. I stood there, shocked, and quickly slipped back out of the room unnoticed. I brewed a cup of tea, and sat awaiting them. When the sounds of activity ceased I crossed my legs and waited. Barbara came out first, and looked at me, stunned. I smiled warmly at her.
“Hello Barbara, there’s tea on the stove if you’d like a cup.”
Ike came out next.
“Princie… I can explain!”
“You don’t need to. There’s no need for explanations.”
“Do you forgive me?”
“No.”
The next day Ike woke up to cold sheets, with no trace of me in them. Not there or anywhere in that house. If he were to have walked downstairs, which I’m sure he did, he would have found a sticky note on the refrigerator bearing the words ‘don’t follow me’. If he went to the basement he would not have found Barbara, for the two of us had left together, beside each other. The next week Ike would receive divorce papers in the mail with no return address.
Barbara and I had a long talk, but honestly I would have forgiven her either way. She was the most beautiful woman I will ever meet. I would never be mad at her. I love her.
Let’s go back. To before those days, to our road trip. It was 1989 and we got in Barbara’s father’s stationwagon to travel the country together. That was the summer I confessed. I told Barbara over a cigarette in a motel that I loved her. Barbara did not respond. She left that night, and I had to call Ike to come get me. I didn’t see her again until her parents’ funeral, when I told her that she did not have to love me, but I was going to be there beside her either way.
It turned out that she had loved me, and she could only admit that after I caught her with Ike, when I had broken up with him. I loved her with all my heart and we lived together for three years happily. We would have picnics in the park, and share a city apartment like we had in university. Those were the happiest years of my life, the three I spent with her.
Then, on a sunny afternoon I was starting a roast that we would eat for dinner. I had a whole night prepared, with roses on the table, and candles in the bedroom. I had been planning to propose. I picked out a ring the week before, and had a mixtape with her favorite songs, the same boombox from university.
It went wonderfully, we ate, we danced. We danced. It was during the dance when it happened. I was looking into Barbara’s hazel eyes, and she was smiling at me as we danced around our empty kitchen. She is beautiful. She is lovely. She is everything.
It was at the end of the song when I realized there was blood dripping onto the floor. My blood. Bright red on white tiling. I fell to the floor, still in her arms as she held me tight. She was my everything. I pulled out the ring box and held it up to her. She began to cry, taking the ring and sliding it onto her finger.
“Will you marry me?”
“I would, my darling, if only we had time.”
“In time we will, I will find you my love.”
Since that day I have been searching for her, through the afterlife. It is cold here, but her name on my lips keeps me warm. I will never know why she did it, shoving that knife into my stomach, but I don’t have to. She is my everything, and I know we will walk beside each other through the gates to eternity. Until then, I will search, calling out her name.
#heartache#wlw#her and i#writing#slow dancing in the kitchen#a sunday kind of love#romance#im sorry#afterlife#gay women in the 80s because i can#there's a playlist to go with this and its unnecessarily long but its fine#I'm drawing them too

Ok hear me out: Narilamb but they're both aroace and in a qpr.
I've been rolling around in my head for like a long long time this idea that Narinder and Lambert could both be aroace and (after like. A couple of centuries or so) end up in this like very comfortable very close relationship that neither of them define as anything specific other than calling it a "companionship". But on the other hand most of the cult thinks that they're dating in secret or something despite the fact that both of them have said they don't take lovers, because they are clearly very tight but maybe not super openly so, so maybe the cultists thing they're being secretive and hiding something or something like that. Idk but my aroace brain loves thinking about extremely close (mostly) platonic relationships and for some reason my brain decided hmm. I'm going to take this and throw it at Narilamb and see how I like it.
So then I decided to make a ridiculous joke comic about Narinder asking Lambert's hand in marriage specifically because he wants to get out of paying taxes. Because like, I know that spouse followers do actually still have to pay taxes in the actual game but. Hey Narinder and Lambert have presumably never married so they probably don't know that...? Honestly the only reason I made this was because the concept tickled me and I spent too much time on this for no one to see it, so. This comic and all it's absolute ridiculousness be upon ye.
While there's a tiny part of me that's been thinking about making this into an AU (which I'd probably call something like the "Strictly Platonic AU" or something), I know for a fact that I would blatantly not do anything legitimate with it so. It's an unofficial AU I guess?? But. Anyways. I thought this would be funny. Enjoy my ramblings and I hope you enjoy this thing that I spent. Actual time on. Lol
#cotl#cotl fanart#cult of the lamb#cult of the lamb fanart#cotl lamb#cotl narinder#cotl narilamb#narilamb#(not sure if this counts as full on narilamb but hey for the folks who don't wanna see it it's properly tagged)#tbh there's a part of me that doesn't know why I'm posting this cuz. it's so ridiculous and silly and self indulgent and like#it probably only appeals to me specifically but hey. I thought it was funny and maybe someone else will too#also new lambert face!! which i'm super happy with they look really good i think in comparison to my other drawings of them so far#anyways that's enough tag rambles. if you've read this far into the tags then uh. hello!! I hope you recieved good news today :D#the yet untitled qpr narilamb au

Call this the Whoopsie AU (it's barely an AU)
I mean. Narinder never explicitly SAID the Lamb would stay dead... :3c He probably should have been more specific. >:3c
Part Two:
Well. The Lamb tried, but...sorry, Nari, the crown hates you now. Shouldn't have been so quick to lend it out, I guess. :D
Aaaand Part Three:
'Isn't he just adorable?' -The Lamb, probably, while their followers smile and nod and internally scream at the brand new hellcat they now have to share living space with...
Anyway, nothing says 'Dead To Me' like following a person around to loudly remind them of how dead they are to you. Right? Right. Narinder's got this all figured out. <:]
#fanart#comics#cult of the lamb#cotl#narilamb#cotl lamb#cotl narinder#cotl yellow cat#this is my headcanon and i'm sticking to it#the lamb is a goofy stabby-babby goober and narinder is just a grumpy asshole who constantly velcroes onto them for hella snuggles#look - if you've been trapped in the afterlife void for over a thousand years - you are GONNA want a fuckton of snuggles#that's just science#the scribble comic i did with narinder and the yellow cat can technically work as part four i guess#only instead of the lamb Going Gremlin at the attempt to steal their other followers' devotion#they just comin' at him for Rad Cuddles OuO#someday i will draw these two with the proper height difference i imagine them having#today is not that day#today is also not the day i pin down exactly how long i want narinder's tail to be#(but i want it to be Very Long - just because)#there are inconsistencies here and there and probably some mistakes but i have been working on these for a week and i am So Tired guys#EDIT: haha yeah i forgot to color in narinder's fukken ears again#fuk :)#EDIT 2: i fixed it but it's probably too late at this point lmao#EDIT 3: THE LAMB'S FUKKEN HORNS JFC#i am not editing this thing anymore cuz i need sleep and the mistakes are already out there *dies of artist mortification*

He was feeling left out
and the higher rez stills, since gifs always export as if you're sending messages through a metal can~
#you may be wondering why I put so much effort into this#I'm curious too funny how these things happen sometimes#anyways I think omega has jets on his back that would let him fly but consider: he wants to Look Cool#shadow the hedgehog#rouge the bat#omega e123#sxsg#sonic x shadow generations#team dark#sxsg spoilers#sonic#idk how long I need to tag spoilers but I'll be nice#comic#having the camera shifted towards shadow for the middle bit was a Mistake#he is soooo much harder to draw than rouge asl;dkfj#like one degree off on the eyes and it becomes unviable I swear#except for profiles ironically that first panel was easy as hell#looking back on this I love how I Completely changed how I drew rouge's wings after the first panel#I think the difference was I just swapped refs and her character model was different lol#meanwhile I'm just blatantly cheating shadow's wings for the middle panel purely to fit them in at all#I truly love how oversized they are except for when I'm trying to make a readable composition#yet another reason he should've been back to the camera rather than facing it in the middle but so it goes#my art#doodles

Look what we've become.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#Initially I wanted to do a 'Mutiny' quote to follow the 'Luck runs out' quote.#But the musical earworms demanded a different blood to be drawn. And I think it works just as well.#Alright. It's time to confess something. I really struggled with this comic. I didn't want to draw it. Then I didn't want to upload it.#Because I knew I would be here in the tags writing and backspacing for hours trying to articulate my thoughts.#I'm going to talk about death and grief in the tags today so this is your WARNING to look away if you aren't in a headspace for it.#Sometimes in media there are scenes and characters which land on topics so specific to your wounds that it reopens them all over again.#Because here's the truth. When you've known someone like this for nearly your whole life...it doesn't matter how bad the fight is.#You always think 'We'll always have time. One day this dust will settle and we'll rebuild the bridge.'#And then the fucker dies!!! He dies and suddenly there will never ever be time to repair the rift.#Someone you loved died thinking you hated them. And part of you did just a bit. But love and hate aren't mutually exclusive.#He's fucking dead and you are left with so many broken and unfinished pieces between the two of you.#Jiang Cheng loses Wei Wuxian thinking that WWX thought they hated each other.#He's a younger brother who will one day be older than the person he lost.#Who has no one else in the world who understands those feelings of love and hate and grief.#I can't be normal about this character. I don't think he even heals me. Zero catharsis to be gained here.#I just look at his sour grape ass and think 'shit that's a little too close to home.' JC is my discomfort character.#I'm probably going to regret being this vulnerable in the tags in like. An hour. So. sorry if you see this once and never again.#EDIT: Yeah sorry this took 4 hours to muster the courage to post. Surprise update!#EDIT 2: You guys were being too nice to me on my sad comic to point out the spelling error. I have fixed it now B'*)

this is basically what happened, right?
(these guys are very lucky that everyone at NRC 1) has the combined intelligence of a sack of bricks, and 2) is easily distracted by shiny things.)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#stage in playful land#stage in playfulland#these two are SO sleazy and i am utterly delighted by them#can't wait to find out their tragic backstory in approximately 3-4 weeks!#fortunately i have like a month to figure out how the heck to draw their hair (spoiler: i will never figure it out)#also. god. i love it whenever leona accidentally reveals his Mom Side.#he doesn't care about any of this but he WILL be tagging along to make sure no one else gets into trouble#once again he has to be the Responsible Adult and he hates it. the whimsical hat weighs heavy upon his head.#anyway this is me so excuse me while i now talk about diasomnia for three hours#but lilia being all 'kids gotta have some adventure in their lives!' is hilarious#specifically because you know silver would NEVER.#100% silver not only never snuck out but he always went to bed on time AND brushed his teeth AND flossed even when nobody made him.#lilia: aww but you should be enjoying your youth! >:c#silver: i am. i enjoy being respectful and disciplined and honoring you as my father.#lilia:#lilia: maybe i'm TOO good at raising kids#you know i was going to say none of his kids would be involved in this but i actually think malleus definitely would#he would not see it as a moral quandry though. he would just be excited to be invited along.#(the only reason he isn't there is because he was busy admiring a termite-infested beam somewhere and yuu didn't get a chance to ask him)#i mean MAYBE if lilia as his single authority figure told him no then he would have some reservations#but lilia's the one who's screaming HELL YEAH LET'S SNEAK OUT AND DEFY AUTHORITY while dabbing so moot point there#sebek would never and he would rat on everyone else. unless malleus is going in which case he's already there.#and i guess if everyone else is going silver probably would too#but he'd. y'know. feel conflicted about it.
