#Magspie draws

[applemagspie]

The quality got lowered so much but I just remembered I never posted this illustration I made like two months back (before anyone points out her sleeves are wrong I drew her from memory so I forgot)

it was inspired on a Miku illustration on Twitter that I can’t find anymore

My half of an art trade with @snejkha

This is my first time doing a full character design for a trade and it was a lot of fun✨

My side of an art trade with @magspy of their OC Fire Starter ! They have so many fun designs of characters it was hard to choose which one to make a paper doll of :]

He is made of a cheerio box, paint, and patterned papers

It took me a bit longer than expected, but my half of @magspy and I's art trade is complete!! I decided to draw her oc, Fire Starter (who I think is just such a cool concept for a druid).

(on the left) Aveline school of flirting, because of a reel Arja has sent me in the afternoon and that is still making me laugh.

(on the right) Ankh deserves to squeeze a goose for once instead of hunting them for sport u-u

I'm in a "zero braincells, only pew pew and *kfff* "shield damaged!" on me3mp" period due to everything being super stressful in a way that even drawing and reading are looking like chores :' I'm sorry I don't have anything ready or somewhat pleasing to look at. Hopefully things will change starting from tomorrow

Reply with an emoji if you want to get tagged <3

WIP Intro: Cold Iron

Series: Title TBD Genre: dark urban fantasy Draft 1 status: complete (85,039 words) Draft 2 status: typed through chapter 18

Plot

Life is hard for a changeling in 1956. Just like it was in the 1910's and the 1920's and the 1930's. The 40's were actually a little better because Americans had a different enemy to focus on, but now they're back to fight off the Fae threat with a new military branch. And to them, there is no difference between the powerful Fae who cross the veil for nefarious purposes, the wildlings lurking in alleys and tunnels to grab any scraps they can, and the changelings left in place of stolen human children.

And maybe there is no difference, really. Shakatra and their brother Kris, both abandoned changelings, have been living for decades in the tunnels under Seattle, stealing food and picking fights with wildlings and caring for no one but each other. But now it's 1956, and Shakatra has just remembered their birthday. Though they are all but ageless, the human whose place they took would be turning 40 this year, and she must be living horribly beyond the veil as servant to the Fae. It's not fair that Shaka goes free. And things that aren't fair bother them.

So the two set off to cross the veil. Just a quick road trip followed by an unknown ritual followed by sneaking into a Fae court and sneaking out again with one—or maybe two—freed humans. And then they'll go back to their life. Easy, right?

Except that nothing is as they expected, including the humans they meant to save—but they might just leave with everything they didn't know they needed. If they can survive.

Characters

Shakatra Zoawin: Turning 40 this year, but seemingly still 20. An autistic changeling full of feral rage with a knack for glamours (especially the kind that make others give them pancakes). Fears how much they hurt everyone they love but can't make themself protect their brother by leaving him. Left their abusive human "family" as a teenager and has been homeless since. Over the course of the story, realizes that their gender is No (and introduced to "they" as a pronoun by a Fae they later kill).

Kristoffer Zoawin: Also turning 40 this year—he thinks. He has to more or less guess at his age, having been abandoned by the humans he was left with so young he doesn't know what name they gave him. But Shakatra was 12 when they met, so Kris decided he was 12 then too. Trans but "raised" (vaguely kept alive) by a loose group of wildlings until he was old enough to survive alone and so didn't realize until puberty that he wasn't like other boys. Actually, he understood that as not just an inhuman changeling, but a Black one, that he was hated more than Shakatra long before he understood that he would have been assigned female. Equally traumatized, but with a more easygoing disposition, he avoids doing magic because it makes him ill and instead enjoys people watching and eating good food and drawing in paint or chalk.

Maggie Davis: The human girl who would have been the protagonist if this were a YA book written 15 years ago. 21 years old and has the rare but not unheard of ability to see through glamours, so not only has she seen monsters her entire life but she was the only one to realize that her brother Nick was replaced as a toddler. She loved the changeling left in his place in a way no one else did, but he (as most changelings) died young and she chose to leave her small town and find her original brother, who would have been about 17 then. Conveniently, she found 2 Fae passing through and forcibly attached herself to them, much to Kris' delight and Shaka's dismay. But she would prove surprisingly useful in the chaos that followed as their mission fell apart.
