Vanya Shchiholov in ‘Quid Masculinum’ by Dylan Perlot for The Flow House, July 2018

[barnbridges]

to be very frank with everyone, donna tartt's novels read like a very good mix of russian and us-south literary tropes. tolstoy meets faulkner is the best i personally can come up with. which, if you like particularly one or the other, is great, but they can sometimes work against her.

Shadow & Bone Daemon AU ;; Heartrender Husbands

Ivan // polar bear . Fedyor // goldfinch .

-

(We've been talking about a Daemon AU in the discord server ever since yesterday and now I'm thinking about it too hard. @buffaluff also made some adorable art based on that AU, check them out!)

[buffaluff]

sooooo good morning quick daemon AU sketch whoops. spawned from a brilliant group chat discussion, bless you all. we had settled (haha get it) on Ivan having a bear daemon named Værge (meaning “guardian” in Danish) and Fedyor having a goldfinch daemon named Solya ☀️ (all of that genius goes to everyone else, i just offer the pencil & paper)

And to explain the swap here:

[moranjpg]
