good lord, eon mentioned in 2024
(sudden flood of comments of people recognizing Eon/Eona in my inbox)
Well! Guess that duology wasn't as obscure as I thought! Never actually met other people who had read them, lmao.
Full disclosure that I haven't read those books in like... good lord, 15+ years at this point. I do remember it having some super uncomfortable plot points, especially when it comes to Eona's romantic relationships.
I would explicitly tell any minors 16 and below to steer clear of Eon/Eona, for that reason. There are some VERY heavily sexual topics in this book, along with extreme ableism and misogyny. A baby is also killed on screen as part of a coup.
(Also prepare for very messy 2000s depictions of queerness. And an ending that is very abrupt.)

is there a greater "me sowing/me reaping" scenario than designing a character to be wearing an article of clothing you hate drawing

When I’m talking about Demon!Mistoffelees, I hope you all know I’m talking, like, Erwin Schrott playing Mephistopheles, “ostensibly insouciant and yet the malevolence beneath the surface was always apparent”; Samuel Ramey popping balloons and smoking on stage mid aria for the dramaTM; “Omniscient am I not; yet much is known to me."; “In the end, you are exactly--what you are. Put on a wig with a million curls, put the highest heeled boots on your feet, yet you remain in the end just what you are.”
Like literal Mephistopheles but in cat form.
