This whole comic was supposed to be a treat for an AO3 exchange for @fuckman360kickflip, who had put both modern AU and piercings in her list of prompts. I had a vision and had to make something out of it. I never did any of this potato + needle at home piercing shit myself, but I had friends who did, and yes, they were Very Worried about piercing the gay™ ear. It was a big deal. Also the piercings usually got Very infected. Simpler (worse) times. Excellent fodder for putting characters in situations though.

The culture clash in His Majesty's Dragon is so funny and interesting. Laurence realizes that Granby hates him not just because of the whole "Navy interloper" thing (which he found understandable and even forgivable) but also because he's holding a grudge on Dayes' behalf (which he does NOT find forgivable, due to how much Dayes upset Temeraire). Granby's keeping himself just barely on the "passive" side of passive-aggressive and Laurence decides something needs to be done, but he's so painfully Navy that he's like, "It has become necessary by his actions to make it clear I won't tolerate his disrespect. He'll know that his distaste for me is returned, but he won't keep pushing it if he knows I'll hold him accountable for the insubordination."
Like, all of that is what he's attempting to silently say when he insists Granby call him "sir", and in the Navy it would've been understood implicitly. It does not at any point occur to him that Granby wouldn't hear that!
But what Granby hears is, "I think that the Navy is better than the Corps and that I specifically am better than you specifically. Every conclusion you've jumped to about me is right. I will be taking advantage of my dragon's great value to the Corps to get my way."
And then he spends the next month calling Laurence "sir" in the sassiest, most pointed way he can muster, because his response to that is "You may outrank me and due to your ability to destroy my career I will obey your uptight demand, but I will not mean it. My respect is something you have to earn, and you have done nothing at all to do that."
And what Laurence hears is "I am the sort of person who will reluctantly keep to the letter of the rules of civility but not to the spirit. I am so dead set against the very premise your presence here that I am going to remind you of it every time we interact."
Chef's kiss. Can't believe they're gonna be lifelong besties and neither can they

John Granby, 0.05 seconds from dislocating his shoulder
#when all that momentum comes sharply to a stop on one hand 😬#temeraire#john granby#my art#I made the mistake of grabbing for a hold rather than letting myself fall once when I was a beginner climber#and wrenched my shoulder badly. freaked myself out enough to never do it again

Things will be different in the new year...
#em draws stuff#em is posting about temeraire#temeraire#william laurence#john granby#this image brought to you by watching my coworkers learning to tie good luck knots at our lunar new year workshop#the sheer laddishness of it all and watching them tease each other and saying things like 'I'm locking in! I'll have so much luck!'#and 'you're so bad at this you'll have bad luck all year' even though that's not how it's actually supposed to work#and so consequently thinking of the tem lads doing that#laurence being good at it already because he's a sailor and granby getting tangled up#(both because he's not good at knots and because he's going to have bad luck)#then again you can also interpret it as a red string of fate thing if you want - laurence having despite everything that's going to come#in the next books having already found the people who are going to love and be loyal to him and granby being set a thornier path#wrt little and iskierka and whatnot...#anyway. happy lunar new year to all celebrating! this image got so severely out of hand!

Things to never say to someone who just came out:
What?
I am very sorry. Very sorry indeed
Can you not?
She cannot be looking for affection of the ordinary sort which one might hope to find in a marriage. For that matter, she must know soon enough if not already that Napoleon has divorced another woman for her, one whom he married for passion; and she herself is a recent widow. Her marriage must be an act of state rather than a personal gesture; I cannot think she would take it as an injury in the same manner as might a woman entering into the marriage contract under the more ordinary circumstances
