I stood there thinking of the Namreen hunting me and the rewards they would post. Or maybe they’d found my master’s plaque next to the slave dead under the rockslide and no one was looking for me at all." — Thick as Thieves, chapter 10

This work was a gift fot @kareenvorbarra and @artino-c for the @hamiathesgiftexchange!

After reading @kareenvorbarra's What We Are Allowed, I have been thinking a lot about how Laela must have felt when she heard Kamet was supposed to have died in a rockslide...

The bracelet is the one Kamet buys for her on chapter 1 of Thick as Thieves; the design is based on the description on the fic mentioned above.

Not becoming the thing you sought to destroy or destroying the thing you sought to become, but a secret third thing: in an effort to destroy the thing you accidentally become it without realizing until it consumes you completely and there's nothing left of the person you once were or your original intentions and now the lines are blurred between greater and lesser evils. In this essay I will

"renegades is about grey morality" "oh the ending of supernova made the whole point of neutral morality completely moot" IT'S EXTREMISM. RENEGADES IS ANTI-EXTREMISM.

callum literally says to nova in archenemies that he disagrees with the anarchists because all they did was destroy, they believed the only way for the world to be as it should was to essentially cause the apocalypse. we don't talk about it enough, but the series DOES take place in a semi-recovered post-apocalyptic environment. and then the anarchists raised nova to destroy what little progress had been made towards recovery. yes the renegades were a very flawed system; the whole point is that they should be CHANGED, not DESTROYED.

NO BUT THIS ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️😭😭😭😭

GIRLS WHEN A CHARACTER WHO ONLY KNOWS HUMAN CONTACT IN A VIOLENT/DEFENSIVE WAY LEARNS HOW IT FEELS TO TOUCH/BE TOUCHED BY SOMEONE IN A TENDER/LOVING WAY: 🥺😩🛐🫣🥹🫠🫂🫨😵😪😵‍💫😔😫🤯😨🫡🙇‍♀️😮‍💨🫢😶‍🌫️🥲💆‍♀️😍🥳🥰💃😟🧎‍♀️🤩☹️😱😣🧍‍♀️💥

Like Marissa Meyer had the opportunity to make the character with the ability to put people to sleep by touching them also the most touch-deprived/touch-starved AND SHE DID and i think that's insane of her.

Bonus points cause this kind of characters are usually male but in this case it's a girl 🤌✨

[mikodrawnnarratives]

actually its halloween now cause i said so and I wanted to draw Maggie and Max as Six and Mono from Little Nightmares cause I just finished watching both games playthroughs and it fits and and they'd definitely be the kind of kids that would play it before they are old enough in an au where they grew up normally

Hear me out; a Renegades tv show animated in the style of Arcane/Spider-verse

This fancomic is a gift for @artino-c -- based on a prompt from last year's @hamiathesgiftexchange, but I only finished it this year!

[Transcript:

The first time I saw you, at the temple The plague had started, timid yet. Impossibly, you made everyone laugh, Including me.

The second time I saw you, you didn't see me. It was the solstice night, after the games. You were praying to a goddess with such tender devotion, You kissed her hands and I thought, I wish that were me.

The third time I saw you, I gave you my heart, Honest and bitter, That is, my wisdom. You gagged on it, But when I kissed you, you didn't protest. On the next day, with a crown on your head, You had no kisses or smiles for anyone And I thought, Good.

The last time I saw you Was yesterday. You were happy, And so was I. You kissed me Not like you kiss your husband Not like you kiss your god Not like you kiss your sister You kissed me like only you could kiss me And I smiled because I knew You would kiss me again.]

Renegades scenes I would LOVE to see fanart of:

The dinner scene, there is not a single fanart of that scene

The scene after the library one where Hugh hugs Adrian

The scene in the carnival after Nova shoots The Detonator where Adrian says that he’s going to carry Nova to safety and she just slumps in his arms

The moment where Adrian sees Nova walking through the door in the gala and he’s in shock

The scene where Nova helps Max after Frostbite harms him

The scene at the end of the last chapter in Supernova where Nova says “Captain, what would you think if a villain happened to fall in love with your son”

THE OSBY KISS

The trials

[whirlinglikeaballet]

ok so i’m rereading renegades and

i just think it’s kind of strange that adrian never thought about this moment again?? like, he never once found nova’s obviously sarcastic comment just a little bit suspicious??

[bitstitchbitch]

I desperately hope that the renegades are absolutely abolished in the spin off series. I need Nova to realize that, while the anarchists were worse, the renegades aren’t great either and her switching sides so fully and suddenly was just a knee-jerk reaction to leaving the anarchists and her and Adrian and the others rebel again at the council and put a real democracy with true equality in place. i also want nova pov again, but i know the chances of that are very low since i think we can assume it will be Evie x Max

WARNING: MANY RENEGADES SPOILERS

[knight-in-baggy-sweatpants]

don't mind me just thinking about how one day when they're older and Adrian decides to propose to Nova he'll probably carry the ring around with him in his pocket for days even though he has a proposal planned at the end of the week because he doesn't want Nova to find it, and if he's ever even in the same room as Maggie during those few days she'll KNOW. she'll be like "why does Adrian have something super expensive in his pocket" to Max and Max, who has seen his brother being extra shady but also extra lovey dovey the past few weeks, will narrow his eyes, and they'll figure it out together and Maggie will have to drag Max out of every room Nova enters because he CANNOT keep secrets from her and her only.
