#fuck yourself friday

[taylor-titmouse]

Old Dog, New Trick by R/L Monroe @petitemortality is out! This one's for the big hairy bear lovers, the leather likers, the transmasc tops, and the fags. It's really good and sweet and all about falling in love with your own body again. You can check out the first three pages and a list of what it features on its shop page, and it's only $3!

but this means it's time once again for a process poooost~ you can read about how we designed the cover below!

THUMBNAILS!

this one might have been the most straightforward yet. lee essentially told me 'dad bod in a chest harness' and that is what he got. the two on the bottom left were me thinking he hadn't Literally meant that, somehow, and trying other things. even rereading the chat log i'm not sure how i came to that conclusion because he very clearly asked for a dad bod in a harness. (i also had not read the story yet, so i didn't have an impression of charlie. do not be fooled by my slinky little twink in the bottom middle. he is a big boy too)

the bottom right is when i was like 'no wait he definitely just said dad bod with harness' and had the thought of putting the author and title on the harness itself. we went with that one!

color passes, had to involve the rainbow somehow for pride. dom painting himself seemed the obvious choice for me, very dad at a football game. but lee was like "wait. put it in the background." and it Is the obvious choice. and then

what did he mean by this

honestly there wasn't much more to it from there, just workshopping where the 18+ should be on his body and how much space it should take up. this is probably the most straightforwardly representative cover i've done for him so far! oh my god there's lineart.

also please appreciate the itchio thumbnail. making the itchio thumbnails is actually the most fun part. you should look at lee's shop page and see how nice and clean those look all together. i wish i'd kept a consistent style guide when i started out with my own books ; ;

A somewhat overdue update on my work! Short version: Intel fucked me, I got no PC, but we maintain. Click through for some progress shots from my easel, a FYF round-up, AND....a free PDF of the short story that got me runner-up in the Shorelines of Infinity sci-fi/speculative competition back in the summer.

This one goes out to everyone else who has ever worked food service. One day we will kill them all.

OK! First, everyone please blame thank Di for putting me in my Bobby Nash feels. It’s a short ficlet like thing I expect to actually stay short (for once!)

How long has it been? How many years since mahogany, cherry or spruce? Velvet or Satin? Granite, marble or bronze? Lilies, orchids, forget-me-nots? How long since Ann Margaret Nash was laid to rest, finally allowed to be at peace with the choices she made? Had to make.

How much time since Charlie last looked at Bobby, both of them drowning in their grief? Weighed down with sadness, anger, disappointment, regret and too much pride to admit they wanted to maybe talk about repairing the rift that started the day Bobby chose to stay with Dad.

How many lifetimes between Bobby offering a weak ‘I’ll be in touch’ and his brother’s equally placating ‘Sure, Bobby’.

Fuck it Friday

Tommy knocked on the loft door, mentally preparing himself to see Ev–Buck.

The door swung open, but instead of Buck it was someone he’d never seen before, a young Asian man around Buck’s age.

“Uh, sorry,” Tommy started. “I was – is Buck here?” Maybe it was stupid to stay around, maybe he should have lied and said it was the wrong apartment, but how would he explain that if Buck saw him?

“No.”

“Oh, okay.” A pretty clear dismissal, then. “Thanks.”

“Do you want me to let him know you stopped by?”

“No, I’ll just, uh, I’ll come back later. Or something.”

The other man frowned. “You haven’t talked to him recently, have you?”

“No, it’s been a little while.” 3 weeks, 5 days, 12 hours, but who’s counting? “Is everything okay?”

“Oh, I didn’t mean to worry you! No, that’s a valid question with Buck. He’s fine, but uh, he’s not in the city. I’m house sitting for him.”

“Huh.” Tommy paused. “Do you know when he’s coming back?”

The guy shrugged. “Sometime before June?”

“You’re going to house sit for him for six months?” Tommy’s eyebrows shot up.

“Brother in law privileges. He gets free house sitting, I get to be closer to my niece.”

r/l monroe @petitemortality's latest sexy short, Bodysnatched, is out! this one's a really funny halloween monster mash romp. You Will Love The Cryptlord. you can also get it as part of a 3 book $7 bundle for this weekend! meatheads and lucky little lunatics are also Very Very Good. great picks for a horny post-weenie weekend.

anyway it's process time!

THUMBNAILS

the prompt: "cover concept: the body of this stitched together monster girl, but with the titties and genital region cut out as missing jigsaw pieces. maybe some classic halloween monster hands (werewolf, dracula etc.) grabbing at her?"

so i just Didn't do the puzzle pieces or monster hands at first because i was worried it would end up too busy, and presented those b/w thumbs first with a cloth/tearing theme. this is because before starting i'd asked him if dolly was a patchwork doll or human skin type of frankenstein and i heard the complete opposite of what he told me (she is not a patchwork doll).

so i tried again, and wouldn't you know it, the initial concept as pitched was the best one. sometimes the client Is right.

THE SKETCH

you bet your ass i just googled "blank puzzle pieces" and put it over the drawing. what am i crazy

THE FINISHING PROCESS

between the sketch and the inks r/l suggested more hands be added to help convey the idea that the character is being passed around/modified by a bunch of different monsters, rather than just the one, which would've implied a central character relationship. i didn't even know about the cryptlord character, The Best Character, when i added the skeleton hand. i don't usually get to read these until the day before/day of release myself.

as for fonts, r/l monroe asked for my "goopiest goosebumps halloween ass fonts" which i did not have, but now i have Many.

anyway go read bodysnatched! it's only $3! or less if you get it in that bundle!

...

what's that? what about last month's cover process?

so between Break & Enter being released a little late, october being an explodingly busy month, and the cover process itself being so completely straightforward one-and-done, it just didn't happen! but here, as an extra treat, you can see the alternate thumbnails for that one. that's honestly the only interesting thing i'd have to post about it. as you can see, there was very little difference between the thumbnail and the final cover!

[mortalityplays]

Don't forget this drops tomorrow (March 29th)!!!

Go Fuck Yourself (18+)

Julia is sick of working late. She's sick of being disrespected, and most of all she's sick of her boss. Lance is a burned out, smooth-talking playboy, but he also happens to be the son of the CEO. 

When Lance pushes her buttons once too often, Julia is tempted to put him in his place – but is it worth throwing away her career for a moment of satisfaction?

thank you beloveds! <3

making some decent progress with calls fic and hopefully it will be finished within the next few weeks. so have a little bit of eddie breaking down as he leaves buck a voicemail while he's in the coma

“I–These past few days have been so shitty. Fuck you for that, y’know. Yeah, fuck you. I don’t care if it’s irrational to be angry with you right now. I know it’s not your fault. I know you don’t want to be–but you just–I can’t keep you safe no matter what I do.” The words taste like ash on his tongue, a dream that's been burned beyond repair, charred and cracked and untouchable.

Guilt and shame and despair fall on him heavier and thicker than rain, rippling with the heat of anger that really isn’t anger, this aching incineration far too similar to what consumed him after Shannon’s death.

He can’t do it again. Please don’t make him do it again.

“I’m sorry,” he whispers. He sounds small and helpless. He feels small and helpless. Because he can’t keep Buck safe, just like he couldn’t keep Shannon or Chris safe, just like he can’t keep himself safe. Danger clings to his life with a vivacious jealousy, fingers hooked into his skin, tongue lapping over his wounds, always there is some form, lingering like a shadow.

Eddie bangs his head against the wall. He needs to focus. He needs to not fall into the trap of his thoughts. He needs to give Buck–he needs to give Buck something, a truth or a piece of himself tucked away in Buck’s phone as motivation, as a gift, as a reason.

“Okay, I–” he blows out a breath and pinches the bridge of his nose between his fingers, eyes shutting tight again. Sparks flash over his vision, bright and devouring like a flashover, electric and paralyzing like lightning. “Everything is awful, Buck, and everything hurts. You’re laid out in a hospital bed, so fucking still and empty, and all I can think about is what it was like to lose my wife and how I can’t go through that again."

erm. Don't look at me. Look at this Rabbit Hole cover w/ silly billy instead

[blazedrawsstuff]

I'm bored *Silly Billy's Blaze*

Anyways this is an alternate universe of Blaze. Basically this Blaze (known as "Beatrice", "Bea" for short in this universe), fell in love with a boy named Kenneth (the universe's version of Kenji/Senpai. Also known as "Beloved" here). Who, like his canon counterpart was stuck in a game.

He asked Bea for two things: Freedom, and a soul (for he was artificial, and thus lacking a physical soul). Bea went to heaven, but they refused to help her, refusing to help an "artificial" and "soulless" being.

This did not deter Bea though, who, against heavens wishes, granted Kenny's.

But this would not go unnoticed, or unpunished. As an angel was sent down to find and punish Bea for her defiance. And force Kenny back into the game.

Kenny tried to protect Bea from damnation, but was slain by the angel. Bea's damnation followed shortly afterwards. Hellfire turning her into what she is now.

Now she seeks revenge, and a way to see Beloved again. Not realizing he's been with her the whole time.
