My tribute to an incredible fan fiction that continues to make me feel so many emotions! On going, but worth every single moment of waiting!
Astarion is a former olympic figure ice skater. Gale a famous divorced musician. They are paired up as a same-sex couple in the new season of Dancing on Ice... Very intense feelings will follow! ⛸️
You should really read this masterpiece!
If you have already read it I hope you like this art.
If you are Linnetagain... I love you! And thank you for all!
2024 U.S. women's national figure skating champion Amber Glenn skates to Chappell Roan – HOT TO GO! at the Sun Valley on Ice Show on July 21st (via svfigureskatingclub ig story)
Glenn is also the first openly queer woman ever win the U.S. championship
The music fades out. The cheering is like white noise, buzzing in his ears, as Astarion pulls him back upright. He's smiling; really, truly smiling, the way that he does so rarely it feels like a gift.
“Good?” Gale gasps, suddenly realising how hard he's breathing, but unable to hold back the smile that's trying to split his face in half.
“Might be the best you've ever done it,” Astarion says, squeezing his fingers before letting him go. “Camera’s waiting.”
The Season by Linnetagain
Drawing the boys doing Tessa & Scott’s Moulin Rouge routine again because I have no chill and no self control. The latest chapter had me screaming/crying/throwing up and this is how I am coping.
Again, inspired by the wonderful, magnificent The Season; the bloodweave figure skating AU fic that I didn’t know I needed and now can’t live without. Read it and weep, friends; join me in this brainrot hell.
Also I literally do not know how to colour/render but I’m trying to learn please be kind 🥺
Allowing backflips, introducing quints, pulling out and adding who knows what else.... ISU should come out and say it plainly. They don't want athletes to have long term careers. Oh, and artistry is overrated, soon it'll be jumps, some spins and some forward&(maybe) back strokes.
