Colored the Wonder Woman Alex pic!  I’ve been playing around with my inking style and used this to experiment a bit.  I really liked working on her hair~

[harseik]

You dare give me gorgeous fanart, @ladypepperofdavenshire?? (View here.) Well, we'll just see about that. Please welcome Viscount Cyrus Randolf Strand, the debonair undead who haunts Lady Pep's imagination, complete with low-light glowy eyes. He ain't gonna tell you what he doin' there. Heheheheheh.

Just a head’s up

I’m going through and deleting all major franchise fanart off of this blog and relocating it to my fanart blog, Lady Pep’s Fanart, and AU Supergirl blog.  You can direct all your fandom questions to the Fanart blog if you so desire :)

PH 4 - Eissa

Request #1:

Female Aeducan/Anora Mac Tir

Fanart

Fanfiction

I’d love any form of interaction between a Lady Aeducan who stays with the Wardens and a Queen Anora. Character studies, journals/correspondences, plots, smut, politics, vacations from politics, parties, formal Court events, flirting, courting. If you’re doing visuals like the idea of dwarven characters that are rocky and chiseled (physically resembling the Stone) but would be perfectly happy with any kind of character you think appropriate. Would prefer Anora either be unmarried or be married to Lady Aeducan here. Up to you how “out” they are if they’re unmarried and how the Court reacts if they know, as long as the main couple is overall happy. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; non-con; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #2:

Belinda Darrow/Maeveris Tilani

Belinda Darrow & Maeveris Tilani

Fanart

Fanfiction

If you send Ser Belinda Darrow (the very cheerful templar from the co-op) on the wartable mission The Tevinter Resistance, Maeveris Tilani sends a scented handkerchief with her thank you note. I’m absolutely tickled with the idea that these two get along swimmingly and beat back the Venatori with style and flash. I’d be perfectly happy with this being a gen fic about friendship, a chance meeting with obvious sparks, an occasional fling, a lifelong correspondence or however else you want to spin it. I do think a true “happily ever after” where they settle down together is unlikely. I also think Dorian or Varic asking Belinda about Maeveris and getting a flustered response or such a forthright response it flusters the asker could be hilarious. It would also be an amazing place for art of the two of them during the attempted Venatori invasion of the Tillani estate. Something with lots of lightning and blue templar pulses. But anything you want to do would be cool. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; non-con; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #3:

Alistair/Zevran Arainai/Male Surana

Alistair & Zevran Arainai/Male Surana

Fanart

Fanfiction

I’d really love a setting with interactions between King Alistair and a M!Surana and a romanced Zevran years later, after Surana and Zevran have more gotten comfortable being a couple. I like the idea that Zevran and the Surana vanish for a bit after Origins, either on Warden business or just dodging Crows and Alistair runs back into them years later. (I headcanon my Surana fakes his death at Denerim but I’d like to see your take too.) But it would be totally cool to do a slow-forgiveness to pining to deep friendship or romantic/sexual relationship arc too if they stay in contact. Correspondences, sneaking into a Fereldan court function, taking on a DAI multiplayer style mission for the Inquisition together (with maybe hilarious results), peaceful evenings wherever Surana and Zevran settle, solving mysteries in Denerim, attending a street festival in Antiva in costume (with or without Crow shenanigans), Alistair sneaking off for a vacation with the other two (serious, fluff, silly, whatever tone). Pining, with happy endings. If you go the non-platonic route, I’d prefer either Anora and Alistair have a respectful friendship/partnership with an understanding about sexual/romantic relations with others or she’s not Queen at all. No straight up cheating. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; non-con; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #4:

Isabela/Anora Mac Tir

Fanart

Fanfiction

Possible scenarios: Isabela sneaking into a Fereldan court event (either just because or because her friend the Warden Commander is at it); Anora sneaking off to the Pearl; a chance meeting at the Gnawed Noble; a glimpse across the crowded market (and a wink and smile and then Isabela climbs in Anora’s window later?); a Warden who’s on friendly terms with Anora either suggesting Isabela for some underhanded job or just trying to set her friends up. I could also see an argument for a Warden who was friends with Isabela (and probably Zev) and took a liking to Anora but somehow wound up with Alistair on the throne getting ‘bela to rescue Anora from imprisonment, but that might get complicated. Isabela doesn’t bow, Anora isn’t soft, what kind of sparks would the two of them set off? My one qualm here would be that I’d prefer Anora either not be married at the time or have an understanding with her spouse. I’m ok with complicated understandings, or Anora/spouse having complicated reactions to the other’s needs/requests. It doesn’t have to be a glowing, happy, blissful, problem-free understanding. Rocky understandings-in-the-making are fine. Just no straight up cheating knowing the partner will hate it. It’s also ok for her to be Queen alone or just not mention the question either way. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; non-con; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #5:

Female Brosca/Female Cousland

Fanart

Fanfiction

I’d love a F!Cousland on the cheerful tomboy side of the scale enjoying an adventure and learning just how not-adventure the world can be by the side of a Brosca lady with a chipper attitude, but a much dirtier past. Anything in tone from happy adventures together to anger/hurt and comfort, anger in return or down-to-earth pep talks. Any rating. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; non-con; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #6:

Charter/Tessa Forsythia

Fanart

Fanfiction

I’m pretty open to just about anything here, but some prompts that jump to mind are: flirting by correspondence; happy reunions after a job well done; Tessa coming in with the perfect solution to whatever happens to be the major problem at Skyhold at the moment; Charter giving up and just handing Tessa a complicated problem and saying “I don’t know what to do with this, you fix it” and she does. Basically anything cute or fun or sexy. DNW: plots that revolve around miscommunication or jealousy; kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great. Full fledged different settings are pretty hit-or-miss for me and I prefer not to make changes to the underlying rules of the world as laid out by oficial media.

Request #7:

Branka/Hespith (Dragon Age)

Fanart

Fanfiction

What I’d really like here is “what came before Origins.” How did they meet? Who made the first move? Was one of them reluctant? Was there a period of pining? Does one (or both) keep tokens? Does Branka dispose of them at some point after the Anvil starts making her crazy? What was the dynamic like before the Anvil started calling to Branka? How out are they? How does the nobility look on having lovers and how does Hespith react to being hidden (or looked down on or whatever)? This is the one place where a little jealousy/miscommunication/lying is going to be just about unavoidable. Oghren didn’t know about Hespith, as far as I know. How did they get around him? I also expect this one to be a little dark in places, or have an ominous/bittersweet tone. DNW: kidfic; pregnancy fic; incest; soulmates; a/b/o; background ships involving Cole, Sten, Fenris, Anders, Solas or Varric; watersports, scat, gore, hate-sex, incest, minors, issuefic, mommy/daddy kink, humiliation, bloodplay or non-con. AUs can also be a little tricky. Canon-divergent aus are great.

[naturepointstheway]

Actually can you just answer all of those questions?

Sure thing! :D I removed the ones I already answered before, so here goes!

1.“Poor unfortunate souls!” (Your top three angsty fanfics you wrote in 2017 you’re personally proud of.)

Normal to Weep -- just the idea of Lumiere comforting Prince Adam after his mother’s death and the mourning period is over, assuring him he’s completely human in still grieving even after thirty days.

Such Love and Hope Endure -- Again, with Lumiere and young Prince Adam. I would say this is more bittersweet, as there is a little bit of a “hope spot” in there, but definitely leans more on the bitter side of bittersweet.

Forever Can Spare a Minute -- how can writing from Adam’s mother’s point of view when she’s dying be anything but angsty/sad? Judging by the amount of flailing in the notes, this definitely broke a couple of hearts at least.

2. “And I’m almost there. Almost there!” (Any WIPs you started in 2017 that you hope to finish in 2018?)

Well, I do have one story that is openly in progress on AO3, and technically because I started it in a word doc, my Batb/A Christmas Carol one would count too. But I hope to finish that in 2017 while it’s still Christmas. All of December is Christmas.

3. “Come on and kiss the girl!” (Which of your personal OTPs did you write about the most this year?)

Oooh that’s easily gotta be Belle/Adam! I would say Plumette/Lumiere is a fair runner-up here too. 

4. “You’ll learn things you never knew you never knew.” (What is one thing you had to research for a fanfic [e.g. a medical condition, historical period…] you found interesting?)

Honestly, I can never really remember, probably because with one-shots I mostly can avoid that a little. 

5. “When you wish upon a star..” (Any fanfics you yet have to write but really want to?)

Oh god, there’s so many possibilities. I can’t really think of any in particular other than those already mentioned.

6. “Lavender blue, dilly, dilly…” (Your top three favourite pure, unadulterated fluff fanfics you wrote in 2017.)

Pouf Pouf -- Chip asking the prince to help him name a new kitten is cute, but KITTENS. 

Scarce to be Counted -- Wee Prince Adam attempting to count all the stars in the sky and rallying Plumette and Lumiere’s help in this? Too adorbs.

It Has Been So Long Since I Performed -- Adam and Chip convincing Lumiere to recreate Be Our Guest, essentially.

7. “Kings don’t need advice from little hornbills for a start!” (Any OCs you created that took a life of their own in 2017?)

No OCs for this year it appears. I guess I’m just not much for writing OCs in fanfics.

8. “I’ve started talking to the pictures on the walls!” (Did you get any awesome fanart of your fanfics in 2017? What were they for?)

No sadly, I didn’t. :( It would be an honour if someone did though!

9. “I wanna know about these strangers like me!” (Any fellow fans/fanfic-writers you became good buddies with and became each other’s beta-readers or discussion partners on future stories?)

Oh gosh, I met so many amazing people in this BatB fandom this year--including @lumiereswig who gives the best pep talks when one needs it, @batbobsession (whom I think was one of the first I followed in the BatB fandom this year), @tinydooms who is such a delightful and honest young lady, @sweetfayetanner who completely convinced me how amazing Chapeau/Adam’s mother is as a couple (and I admit, I was at first really shy of commenting much on her fics), and so many others, especially the one awesome person who comments on everything I post on AO3. 

11. “You can’t step in the same river twice. The water’s always changing, always flowing…” (What has improved most about your writing throughout 2017?) 

I have no idea--it’s really hard to be objective about one’s writing! I like to think that my characters have gotten a bit better as I got to know them (which is also why I tend to prefer BatB fics I wrote in more recent months (say the last three-ish months) to ones I wrote in June or July.

13. “Tale as old as time…” (What has been your favourite romance fic you’ve written this year?)

Oooh, I don’t write many primarily romantic fics, and in the absence of any I wrote that really stands out to me, I’m gonna go with the one I wrote with Tarzan/Jane from Disney’s Tarzan

Hot Cocoa

15. “The bare necessities, the bare necessities of life!” (Any fics you wrote this year that you got so excited about and so into that you forgot humans kinda need food and drink on a regular basis?)

I would say Inanimate (what do you mean 2am is a bad time to go to bed when you got class at 9am?) and no doubt there are others, but have forgotten since.

17. “Let it go, let it go…” (Any fandoms you were once really into that you slowly began writing fewer fics than usual for during this year?)

I’d definitely say Frozen even though I did write a few this year for that fandom, but definitely not as many as in 2016 or earlier.

Dude, Mr and Mrs Wayne are kinda scary

[ladypepsfanart]

I've been waiting for Part Two ever since I watched the end scene for Dune in 2021, and it DID NOT disappoint!  Part two was one of those movies where I felt like I needed to just process all I saw a few hours afterwards.  The story was told so well and with such care for the source material, and the visuals were absolutely stunning.  It's one of those movies (for me, at least) where it didn't feel nearly three hours long and I wanted just a bit more at the end, especially given the way that Villeneuve chose to close it that felt like a punch to the gut LOL

The parts that really stood out for me were the opening scene with the eclipse (HOLY COW I COULD GO ON ABOUT THAT SCENE FOR HOURS) and the way that the audience watches Paul struggle with embracing the identity of the Kwisatz Haderach for most of the film.  I wanted to capture both of those parts with this piece, hinting at the internal conflict and the coming Holy War that's set up at the end of the movie with the blood on his hands.
