Scorn and the Saint-Maker, chapter 17: I’d like for you and I to go romancing

Scorn and the Saint-Maker is a murder mystery/ineffable husbands romance/who-turned-them-human Good Omens fanfic, set at a university in Scotland, with lots of (as-yet skippable) level-5 smut, ✨sexy maths✨ (reportedly), and one trans angel

Chapter details and art WIPs below ⬇️⬇️

Chapter 17 summary: Fell and Crowley take a day trip to Edinburgh to gatecrash a conference. We discuss maths, strangers, and nomenclature.

Rating: Chapter rated M for a tiny smut (literally one sentence; skippable). Fic rated E.

Excerpt:

Fell smirked his most bastardly smirk and turned his head in the direction in which the stranger had left. “You told that gentleman… that…” Anthony Crowley, quickest mind in Aberdeen (probably), needed several seconds to realise that Fell wasn’t taking an artful pause with a hand still mid-gesture, but had in fact lost his train of thought entirely. Cleverly deducing that his intent stare must mean he had seen something interesting, he followed it with his own, further into the cemetery. Crowley could not be certain that he and Fell were looking at the same thing, but there certainly weren’t many things in sight that caught Crowley’s eye quite as effectively. “That’s a big-ass angel,” he commented.

"Professor Agarwal, you're an idiot" 🎨

I had to redraw this three times. Bloody thing caused me a crumpled-up sheet of aquarelle paper! That never happens. And it was all Crowley's fault: the How's Your Naked Man Friend reaction face is an absolute joy and worked out brilliantly every time.

The lecture hall background, general layout, and bits of Fell's position (even the sceptical lady in the back) used a House MD shot as reference, by the way. @firstvisittoearth might be interested to know that the House-coding is showing in the art now. 🙃

Besmirching Edinburgh 🎨

In case you didn't see my sketch yesterday (which is already my most popular post this month, ok ok I get the message I'll draw more smooches ❤️)

This had me move stuff around A LOT while editing. I also tried out a new set of watercolours that my partner's gifted me. Verdict: eh, good and bad. Definitely need to play around more to figure them out. I ended up using the old ones for the faces and some of the sky anyway (and still had to adjust digitally, idk if I should take a bloody class or if I just need more skintone colours to play with...)

forever obsessed with the fact that the clue crew just reblogs the same posts so i’ll be scrolling through my mutuals’ posts and it’s just the same meme about koko kringles 43 times in a row

[katnissmellarkkk]

did we ever find out if the hanging tree was known by anyone else in 12? katniss learned it from her father, peeta heard mr. e sing it, lucy gray wrote and sang it for only coryo and maude ivory, right? or am i crazy and did she perform it at the hob? was katniss the only person around then in mockingjay who actually knew the song?

"Well, well, look at you," you laughed, "I can't say I've had the pleasure of being caught before, charmed Batman. I'm a bit disappointed to see you're not a demon; I thought we might hit it off."

The Batman doesn't speak at first, then holds you up against the wall, “The Upper East End. Tuesday night.”

“Hmm, doesn’t ring a bell,” you shrug and he presses his arm harder against your throat, “Now, now, batboy, I need my vocal cords for later, I’ve got a couple men’s names to scream in the bedroom.” He throws you to the ground, you roll a few meters and laugh, “Oh, I love a man who plays rough.”

You prop yourself up on your elbow, grabbing his leg before he can press it on your chest, twisting your body just enough to unbalance him. The Batman stumbles, almost tripping over you as you pull him over yourself. As he’s busy trying to stabilize himself, you get up, shaking your shoulders, “Dimittis,” you mutter and the cuffs fall to the ground, and you blow him a kiss before running off. Batman squints his eyes and pursues, much to your delight.

im sorry for whatever has made it so you likely won't post on this blog again (even if it's just a loss of interest in the topic). i hope you enjoy whatever art you make moving forward! just wanted to say i love the art you've made and appreciate that you shared it. you draw soft but clear, if that makes sense, and it's really beautiful. ur color choices draw the eye and the layouts demand careful attention. all the best to you in the future wherever you go and whatever you make!

This is so sweet, thank you so much for the lovely words! It brings a tear to my eye reading it back again, it’s been so long since I’ve posted anything so I’m genuinely surprised and thankful to receive the kindness

The absence is a lot of different things combined (retreating from social media, lack of skill progression due to unavailability, loss of interest, fear of showing said art), the root of the issue being an on-call job that demands 200% of my life and rapidly declining mental health

I won’t go into a ton of detail because it’s just a lot of stuff, but losing the time and (in some ways) the ability to draw as a whole is very damaging to someone who has spent their entire life building their identity around being an artist. I think I can count the amount of times I’ve been able to sit down and draw this year alone on one hand

That being said, I am so so so grateful to everyone who has followed me over the years despite the very erratic posting schedule—surprisingly, I still see some of my drawings making rounds every now and then, I smile every time I read the tags. Naruto has been a huge part of my life for a very long time and I’m glad I’ve been able to meet and collaborate with so many wonderful and talented people here. I do hope in the future the time will find me again because there’s still a ton of things I want to create! We’ll see!

Here's what I've got, @delta86-art!

Thanks for the submission! Ali is full of personality and charm; it was lovely drawing her! ^^

Gonnna start making and sharing fanart for fics I like

[dragon-spaghetti]

Question! If Violet is Husk’s daughter (not being related to Angel) did Husk had a previous lover and I guess there was some complications or such and they divorced or was Violet the product of a one night stand and Husk decided to keep her?

Either a one night stand or extremely brief relationship!! Either way they'd long split by the time husk clocked there was a baby in the picture so he was on his own 😔

Hi hello to you! For the ask game(s), 2, 6, 10 and 14? And 🖐️🐌🎭 (for bluebelle, I'm not aware if you have other ocs :0)

YAYYAYAYAYAYAY MORE BLUEBELLE ASKS!!!!!!!

Hi hello!!!! Thank you so much!!! Ooo these ones are making me think……

2. She is 1000% down to do whatever shenanigans of the week the rest of the gang is up to. When I think of this, I’m mostly picturing her with other OCs, but in general, if it’s her friends, and she’s comfortable enough, though she’s not as loud with her ideas, she will 100% help you rob a bank.

6. It definitely depends on the situation. She doesn’t encounter many situations that go against her moral code, but if she did, it wouldn’t take much more than a threat against her or the people that she loves. Bluebelle will stick to her morals, but she is not willing to risk injury or harm to her friends, or to herself, though the latter of the two depends on the situation, and how bad morally the action is.

10. Bluebelle’s backstory is already pretty much a fairytale au, but that’s still a go to, but outside of that is a detective sitcom with the rest of the gang. And this is not because I’m watching Psych for the first time what do you mean.

By Detective sitcom I mean anything from Murders She Wrote to Scooby Doo. Just her and her friends investigating spooky situations. It’s so so fun.

Bluebelle would be the quiet type best for gathering intel undercover, as a security guard or something, mostly where her job would be snooping around. She would NOT be good at talking to suspects or witnesses. She could just if push came to shove, but it’s just not her forte.

14. Bluebelle just really, really wants to be loved and trusted. Victoria is her person, so she really, really cares what she thinks. Misto and Plato definitely less so, but only by a slim margin. Bluebelle cares so so much for her people, and wants them to do the same for her

I’ll do the silly emojis under the cut bc whew this got long :DD

I already did the handshake one :)))

🐌: this snail is now her new best friend. She will not go anywhere without this snail. Bluebelle has been trusted with this snail’s life and she will NOT fail.

🎭: Probably Mary from JCS(Jesus Christ superstar).

Woah…another alw musical…..is it too late to say I’m sensing a pattern….

I think she’d really relate to I Don’t Know How To Love Him, and probably have a pretty easy time dipping into those complicated and upsetting feelings you have to be in to sing that song, (I am calling myself out 100%).
