Fluffbruary #6: tie | embarrassment | dessert

So, I know it's March, but I decided I'll continue with the prompts, anyway.

Harold and Grace, Before. (Also on AO3)

(Ramble + traditional version under the cut)

It was a struggle to be productive creatively, because I haven't been in a good mental/emotional space lately. But I wanna keep doing these prompts.

I used a reference for this, and I love the poses, but I couldn't seem to execute it properly. I even colored it with watercolor, despite knowing the paper doesn't take a lot of layers of colors very well.

Despite the above's many flaws, and it was rushed, I like it better because I feel more "connected" to it (i.e., took a brush with watercolor paint to paper, I could see the pigment transfer to the paper, etc.). I dunno. I still need to get the hang of digital drawing even after all these years.

Random PoI ramblings

Grace, I’m sad to say, is not my favourite character either: because of the final, and “kill them all”, and uncomfortable meta-textual implications,

but most of all because her reappearance at the end of s3 is the exact moment where the portrayal of AI’s convenient omnipotence gets from fairy-tale to blatantly nonsensical .

Unless Samaritan’s test mode is capable of looking in the heart of a person IT CAN’T FIND in the first place, by what definition is Grace the closest person to Harold Finch? Harold Finch never had any – let alone recorded – contact with her!

I’m not writing a fix-it for this, ridiculous or otherwise, because, due to aforementioned meta-textual implications, I’m not touching Harold’s relationship with Grace with a ten-foot pole, but if we were to think about it anyway:

assuming John and Sameen don’t count because they are presumably dead, Root is Root and Will Ingram is out of range, the closest living person to Harold Finch would probably be Fusco :-D

That is, not counting anyone Harold Crane/Partridge/Cardinal/Whatever maintains regular contact with – but the show tends to forget a fake identity on that scale can’t only exist online. I love s2, but, gosh, “John Warren’s workplace”??? Don’t let me start on s4 “eye roll*

me: *anxiously watching beta* 

harold: i would like to avoid violence if at all possible. but, if they harm grace, in any way..... kill them all. 

me: *screeches* 

[totally-not-poi-quotes]

If I had the skills, I would draw an anthropomorphic version of the Machine as a little girl in 2004 tugging on Finch's jacket, pointing at Grace Hendricks, and saying, "Dad. Dad look. I found this woman. She's an artist and she's very nice. Dad look. Go talk to her. Dad!"

[l-justnoiseinthesystem-l]

Finch: I don't know how to tell you this, but... I love you.

Grace: That's great, Harold. Especially considering the fact we've been engaged for 6 fucking years.

Root: How would you like your coffee?

Carter: As dark and as bitter as my soul.

Root, shouting to someone behind the counter: I need one vanilla latte with extra cream and sugar!

Fusco: Where are we going?

Shaw: To either get ice cream or commit a felony. I'll decide on the way.

from the latest ask! :

6 & 7 for Grace

14 & 15 for Z

3 for Jeanette

9 for Az

:3

Grace:

6. What was the thought process behind their appearance? Did you go mostly for the aesthetic or are there other reasons they look the way they do?

I literally had next to no say in the matter LMAO Like most of my OCs, she just kinda. Appeared fully-formed, for the most part - the only thing that really changed was that her hair got redder and curlier at some point between her first appearance and her most recent one.

Well, that and her ODST tattoo.

7. What is an aspect of their appearance that you like the most?

Her "imperfections." Her facial scars and back scars and her tattoo, just everything that gives her "conventional attractiveness" some character.

Z:

14. Do you have any quotes tied to the character, either from the story itself or from another source that fit them?

15. Have you ever made a moodboard for them?

MADE THIS JUST FOR THE MEME

Jeanette:

3. What was the first thing you decided on, the character's name, appearance, personality or their role in the story?

Jeannie's name and appearance both came about at pretty much the same time. Everything else evolved over time.

Az:

9. How big is their role in the story? Do they make a frequent appearance or are they a character with little "screentime" but big influence? Or are they just a favourite background guy?

Az is The Main Character. She is the linchpin around which the story turns and the driving force behind the majority of the plot. As the descendant of Literal Demigods, she alters people's fates, for good or for ill, just by being present in their vicinity. The world is different because of her, and is better off for it.

Questions

[nyx-lyris]

c is making me cry in the club, yOU CAN’T JUST SAY THINGS LIKE THAT

How about Grace Hendricks?

Oh that’s a challenging one! Let me think about it…

From this meme.

Headcanon A:  realistic

Grace has very strong suspicions that it was Harold who caught her fall on the bridge during the exchange of prisoners. Why would they have kept her blindfolded otherwise? Especially since the other person was clearly not blindfolded. And there was something in the way he held her arm… It just felt… familiar, comforting. It felt right.

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

Grace never had the heart to tell Harold he got the wrong painting sent to the Guggenheim Museum. Mind you, it was a good one, just not the one she meant.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

Grace had the hardest time moving on after Harold’s death. She couldn’t help but “seeing” him the crowd. It was mostly happening around Washington Square, near her apartment. She thought she’d recognize him in the distance, but she’d blink and he was gone. It wasn’t him of course, it couldn’t be. Harold was dead.

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.

I don’t know if it’s canonically unrealistic given how understanding Grace seems in canon, but it’s probably not really realistic in real life. Grace welcomes Harold back immediatly and just basks in the happiness to be reunited with him again. When she’s with him, she feels whole again. However, she does make him promise not to ever leave her again. Ever. No matter how dangerous things can get, they’re in it together.Grace is no foul, she knows he’ll be tempted not to keep his words.

So one night, while he’s sleeping, so talks to the Machine via her laptop and they make a deal. Harold told Grace about how John and the Machine made a deal behind his back, so she knows the Machine will keep her words.

solace

summary: not everyone finds it easy to wake up in the morning. it's definitely made easier with the help of a friend, though.

although at this point, is "friend" even the right term to describe one another with? characters: jerome-092, grace hendricks word count: 902 A/N: for @dancing-coyote :P

"You have bedhead."

Jerome reaches up to pat at his curly hair, puzzled. He's surprised that's the first thing he's greeted with, when Grace stumbles into the rec room at 0900. "And you're up late." he retorts, but there's no heat to it, and he smirks at her as he slides a mug of piping hot coffee across the table to her.

Grace flips him the bird, but shoots him a grateful look as she takes a sip. "Whose fault is that?" He knows exactly how she has her coffee: straight black, nice and fresh and strong.

"Hey, I advised you to go to bed, and that Alice, Douglas, and I had it handled, but you didn't listen..." Jerome shrugs innocently, folding his arms and leaning a hip against the table. Her twin, Killian, had gone to bed an hour or even an hour and a half before she had. But Grace had insisted that she remain, that she would be fine, that she could stay and help finish planning their upcoming mission. Now she was paying for it.

Her response is to reach out and thump him in the shoulder with a fist, hard. He dances out of her reach, yelping, and one hand goes to rub the smarting area gingerly.

"Ow, that's still tender!" he chides with a shake of his head, thinking of how much it had hurt yesterday when he'd sprained it. "Dick move."

She says nothing, but her eyes dance with amusement, and her lips are twitching as she takes another swallow of coffee. He knows she doesn't mean anything by it, though, and that really, he kinda had it coming. He knows full well that Grace has a tendency to be... cranky, first thing in the morning, and it may have become an oddly endearing trait of hers, but really, he shouldn't go poking the bear.

( He doesn't think of the fact that he's probably the only one allowed to gently, teasingly provoke Grace while she's still waking up. Never really occurs to him, but it's definitely A Whole Thing that he'd never hear the end of if anyone else realizes it. )

"I'm not the only one with a severe case of bedhead, though." That smirk is back on his face, and he reaches out to coil a lock of her curly hair around a finger. "What's the term your brother likes to use... Oh yeah, you look like you've been dragged backwards through a bush." The polite way of putting it, at any rate. Killian's exact words are usually more along the lines of "your hair appears to have turned into a nest for a family of rats". "Don't worry, I'll fix it."

Grace, still sleepy, hums wordless assent, and Jerome's quick to dart off to her quarters to raid her bathroom for her hair products.

( He doesn't think about the fact that he knows what kind of supplies are needed to help get Grace's hair under control. It's just something that he'd do for another Spartan, he tells himself. Not that he's ever had the chance to; they all keep their hair shoulder length or shorter. )

"Did you at least get some sleep at all?" he asks, as he gently begins to sort out her frizzy mane.

She mumbles her answer into the mug of coffee. "Probably not much more than you did. But then you're a dirty cheat."

He allows himself a chuckle; she does make a fair point. At least it's a topic he doesn't mind making light fun of, on occasion. "I admit it, my augmented physiology renders me a dirty cheater and I can therefore run on less sleep. Still, don't come cryin' to me when you've overtaxed yourself."

"No, I'll just steal your bunk."

"I don't mind sharing."

"You're a blanket hog."

Jerome sputters. "I am not a blanket hog." As a matter of fact, he really didn't need to use blankets all that often. "I think the blanket hog is you, and you just don't want to admit it, so you pass blame to me."

Because sharing bunks is also a thing they do. It's not even something they put stock into; they just... sometimes happen to fall asleep together. Sometimes it's on purpose, though, like when they need to share quarters because they're planetside. Or when one of them can't sleep because their head is too much, and sharing a bed with your co-worker best friend battle buddy fellow soldier is reassuring: you know you're not the only one who has these nightmares, you've got someone right beside you who's been through similar shitty things, physical contact is grounding, it's fine to share space with someone you're familiar with.

It's just habit, that's all.

He doesn't need to see her face to know that Grace is sticking her tongue out at him, and he swats at her playfully. It's easy, this rhythm they've fallen into; it's become a comfort.

( Grace and Killian are really part of Red Team, at this point. They all look out for each other. They're all under Jerome's command. They're his friends, they belong to him, and he would die for any one of them, just as he knows they would give their lives willingly for him. )

( Sure, he has the tendency to spend more time with Grace than any of the others at this point, but it's mere coincidence. Happenstance, that's all. )
