Book launch poster for A Power Unbound, book 3 of Freya Marske/@fahye's spectacular The Last Binding trilogy which has completely taken over my brain for the last few years. See the ones I did for book 1 and 2 here (they do look nice all lined up, if I say so myself!)

This book has so much cool action and twists and turns, and one of my favourite romances of all time (it's somehow the softest and the spiciest). Added all the other characters as well because I adore them, the most hyper competent yet chaotic protagonist group ever to run amok in 1909.

my The Last Binding tag, and my art tag

jack alston, lord hawthorn:

[espiricalesper]

the three couples in the marvellous light series

the most Autistic Man you have ever met (special interest: magical theory) and his ray of sunshine boyfriend who is built like a linebacker and canonically throws an objectively perfect punch

the stereotype of high society woman turned prostitute (horny level: 10) and sunshiny man’s canonically undislikeable younger sister (horny level: there are not digits enough to express its magnitude)

tsundere poor boy who is the country’s most famous writer of yaoi smut and just wants to be pinned against a wall and friendless rich guy (exes w Autistic Man) who lost his magic in a freak accident and is all too happy to oblige

@idiot-in-the-walls is this anything

Thinking abt Jack and Edwin again.

Jack and Edwin who went from childhood friends to spiteful toxic lovers, to bitter exes, to acquaintances of convenience, to amicable friends, to… family. To hugging each other goodbye at the ends of weekends visiting the others home with their respective loves of their lives, to exchanging Christmas gifts and giggling over childhood inside jokes when they drink a little too much. To sharing their adoration for the girl they’ve both come to see as a sister, as endearingly exhausting as she is. To worrying about eachother health, reminding the others he’s getting to that age that his father started having trouble with his back. Edwin watching the ice over Jacks heart slowly melt away and reveal the young Jack Edwin once knew, seeing Jack cup Alan’s cheeks in his hand and beam down at him like he hung the stars. Jack watching Edwin become something much brighter, happier, more loved and more bold than he’d ever known him before with every day that passes, and he spends a little more time being so thoroughly loved and appreciated by his new family. Their growth is so special to me <3

I’m reading A Power Unbound and had to draw these idiots.

I’ll probably redraw this later and neaten it up a bit ☺️

[infinite-mirrors]

still thinking about them

Robin meeting Jack and immediately monologuing about how Hot he is is so funny. like

Robin’s busy ogling him and going on about fairytale knights. meanwhile what did that paragraph look like outside of Robin’s head?

is Jack standing there like "...hm. my ex showed up unannounced in my bedroom with a hunky beefcake of a man, and the beefcake is standing there unsubtly checking me out. this is a more forthright threesome offer than I'd expect from Edwin." truly what is a slut like jack alston supposed to think.

“I wouldn't kiss him” yeah okay but you still clearly thought about it, Robin. “he’s a 10 but unfortunately a dick” still means you think he’s a 10

meanwhile a couple chapters ago Robin looked at Edwin and was like “who is this ugly man. why is his face so bad.”

[introverted-reads]

love that it’s canon that robin hands over edwin to jack like “babe hold my beer” before starting the bar fight of the century that results in the british magic system being completely reconstructed

There’s something really funny to me about how Edwin imprinted so hard on Jack so young when the age difference and the fact that Walter is so much closer to Jack in age means that in Jack’s mind, Edwin was probably classified as “Walter’s punching bag” until he showed up as an adult in London. Like Jack probably rescued him from Walter (age 13) at Cheetham and Edwin (age 9) went “wow a Protector” and Jack (age 17) is like “I wanted him to stop kicking puppies, not to adopt a puppy”

Get a man (Lord Hawthorn) who can do both (find the clit and the prostate)
