SheepyReads April Round-up!
Sci-fi/Fantasy
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb: This book is brutal in the best way. It is from the old-school brand of fantasy that starts with "I was born, and then it got worse." The main character is the bastard son of a prince, and he becomes an assassin both to serve his grandfather, but also to protect himself by becoming indispensable. There is a trend right now for sexy assassins in fantasy. I won't pretend I don't understand it, but it was so important to me that in this book every one of the main character's actions has weight. He isn't traipsing around playing cloak and dagger for the fun of it, he is trying to survive and find a place in the world. Every death in this book was important and emotional, and despite my general distaste for dark fantasy I am already reading the second book and have plans for the third. Recommended (unless you really can't stand animal death. I meant it when I said this is brutal.)
Rouge Protocol by Martha Wells: This is the third book in the Murderbot series. I was glad to see the return of the very tensely plotted sci-fi action we got in the first book, mixed with Murderbot's evolving feelings about itself and its relationship to humans. I read this in one sitting and am excited to see where Murderbot goes next. Recommended
Non-Fiction
Don't Call Me Princess by Peggy Orenstein: I picked this up because I've read almost all of her other books, so I figured I might as well. That was a bad call, because most of the essays here would go on to be expanded into her books, so there was little new ground here for me. Not Recommended (read Cinderella Ate My Daughter or Boys and Sex, instead.)
Unmask Alice by Rick Emerson: This book sets out to explain who actually wrote Go Ask Alice, how it became a smash hit, and why no one ever really bothered to fact-check it. The writing is incredibly immersive, and the story interesting, if deeply depressing. There actually isn't much mystery as to who the real author is, and more of the book is about the events which led to Jay's Journal (the "sequel" to Alice which was also portrayed as nonfiction) and how its popularity intersects with the rise of satanic panic. The book drags a bit when we are suddenly launched into "Jay's" biography, but it's worth it to understand how terribly Beatrice Sparks twisted real events for Jay's Journal. Recommended
Graphic Novels
Be Gay, Do Comics by The Nib: A very fun, eclectic collection of comics about the queer experience. The diversity of styles and opinions is very refreshing. Recommended
Scum Villain's Self Saving System-I finished reading this series in May, so stay tuned for the review on that!

honestly one of the main reasons I like dc is that they can’t keep a storyline straight for shit. anything I don’t like is just *not real*. that’s different storyline babes what are you talking about???
like at this point I can consider shit like wfa and hell even well written fanfics as canon bc who knows what’s going on with those funky little people?? certainly not the dc writers
#like anything I want to be true is and no one can stop me#if I want my gay little characters to be gay and happy then I can ignore everything preventing it#Bruce being a good dad#canon to me#jason has ptsd and is working on it? canon#the batfamily is a family? canon bc I say so#Alfred is alive and well and actually is immortal#timkon#stephcass#jayroy#all canon to me and the fucked up dc continuity can’t do shit#dc#dc comics#batman#batfamily#jason Todd#dick grayson#tim drake#cassandra cain#stephanie brown#duke thomas#damian wayne#bruce wayne#alfred pennyworth

Anointing
Something to hold you guys over until the next pages. Anoint is fun to say.
OP, what?? Let me explain:
This was partly inspired by another comic, got me thinking of how anointing worked. People kinda do this too, stealing your partners jacket for example.
Anointing is when hedgehogs find a smell they like (in some cases a poison) and proceed to lick it and create a saliva foam before covering their spines in the smell/spit.
Scientists don't really understand it but it may have a role in removing parasites, mating behavior or something to do with predators. Free lore.
Mobian 'hogs do it too, but a little less messy...
A special oil in their quills is released as they rub their spines together and even non-hedgehogs mobians can smell it when up close. It's a way to broadcast their partnership, with some considering it a huge leap in a relationship. Many just kinda do it without thinking, as they cuddle.
What do they smell like? Im not joking:
If sonic smells like citrus and leather (official perfume) and shadow smells like lavender (also canon) and coffee (coffee because oils in the espresso beans he canonically eats), do you think they would smell like Lady Gray tea with a hint of smoke or a dark musk underneath?
#its my AU and I can do whatever I want (insane laughing)#im an animal nerd#I love adding animal facts for mundane world building#shadow the hedgehog#sonic the hedgehog#sonic x shadow#shadow#shadonic#sonadow#sonadow comic#gay#sfw#comic#what are they doing#and they were room mates

Woah what’s this? Cheesus draws a background??
So I wanted to draw Burn and then it occurred to me I could draw a comic of the first book prologue cuz that’s honestly when she’s at her coolest.
I’ve never really drawn comic panels before so sorry if it looks weird.
I’m genuinely surprised I finished it - it took like 20 hrs for some reason.
Click for better quality n such
#anyway I love burn#she’s so slay#I also love drawing my design of her#also if anything looks weird I just tried to do perspective#like if burns body looks massive no it doesn’t#wings of fire#wof#wof burn#rip burn you would’ve hated gay people#wof hvitur#burn wof#wings of fire art#art#dragon#comic#I might do more comic panels of my favourite moments in the books#cheesus wof

Sukea stuff
Extra: realization
It’s been a while
Panel 1: smile
Comic 2: Caught red handed
you’re his son
Extra: conversation
he just picking on him
Comic 3: You’re grounded.
#naruto#naruto fanart#kakashi hatake#obito uchiha#sakumo hatake#sasuke uchiha#sakura haruno#naruto uzumaki#naruto sukea#fanart#art#my art#sketch#drawing#digital art#I like the idea of sakumo no matter what will always recognized his son#even if kakashi hides everything and it just reaches to a comical point#like he could change his WHOLE appearance and scent and whatever and sakumo takes one glance and goes “that’s my son :D“#where obito doesn’t realize it until WAY later on (it’s like a nagging feeling but he ignores it)#I like to think both gai and obito would share the mindset of “I’ve seen this man somewhere but where???“#Sukea (Kakashi) immediately gets self conscious when near Sakumo#because some people will put it together if they stare long enough at their faces next to each other#team 7 would absolutely go to sakumo to spill the tea on what his son is doing to them#and somewhere in the village Kakashi is feeling impending doom#sakumo ends up just messing with both kakashi and his genin team (though he’ll just lightly reprimand his son)#btw kakashi is not sorry (next training lesson he'll have his petty revenge)

Twilight realizes she wasn't really prepared for her plan to succeed.
#mlp#Twilight Sparkle#Pinkie Pie#twipie#hey what's up it's been a bit#I hadn't drawn anything since I finished the comic and wanted to do a silly little pony art to get back into it#I didn't have a big plan for this#I just started drawing Twilight looking all gay and it went from there#art#shipping

Gavin made a bet to see how far Connor’s “I’m sorry, but I only take orders from lieutenant Anderson” went.
#dbh#detroit become human#gavin reed#Rk900#hank anderson#dbh hank#dbh connor#My art#Incoherent gay doodles#The funny thing is I actually hate this comic so much lmao#I do not ship Hank and Connor I just did this comic because the idea was funny#It makes me uncomfortable because I see them as father and son#Don’t be weird in the comments#Connor is clearly uncomfortable#The joke being that what Hank asked is untoward even if it was just for the bet to ask

obligatory 2/2 comic because its basically a right of passage for any shuake fan. also theres no backgrounds because i tried and it looked bad!
bonus:
background that i didnt use bc again this looked REALLY bad with backgrounds
this mildly amusing color ref
and an uncolored version too. for funsies and because i actually really liked the lines here
#doodles#akira kurusu#ren amamiya#joker#goro akechi#persona 5#shuake#i mean its not explicitly shuake it can be read as platonic#i am a big fan of reading things platonically feel free to do so#.however that was not the intent this is meant to be gay#is this a good comic? debatable#but i post mid comics all the time its my job#anyways enjoyyyy uhhhh the revived persona hyperfixation#been using no pen pressure or antialising lately#cant garuntee ill continue but it is fun#if you know glassshine uhhh theyre a big inspo for that gnhgtrfgh#i stole their line colors too#sorry theyre very good </3
