Sewage got stuck in morning.
Bathroom over-flooded.
Made calls and waited for rescue.
Skipped work and stayed home all day.
Drew art for serpentinelion's Drabble mini fest while the saints were cleaning the drainage.

Hope you like it, earth_magic!

My contributions to serpentinelion's Drabble Mini Fest:

Imperius Curse (Harry), Cruciatus Curse (Draco), and Veritaserum (Harry & Draco) (all rated G) <- link goes to the comm.

Lots of great prompts there, and you have a day to work on and post your entries. Writers can write at most 500 words for each one. Artists can submit sketches as well.

Come on! Flood the comm and your flist with short and sweet h/d goodness! I'm hoping someone would write about Tokyo and Vancouver.

I'm awfully late to post my big bang art. So here it goes-

This art (and another one, will be posting soon) for our beloved kasche, for her generosity and kindness. I've said it a million times and I have to say it again - you are such an amazingly lovely person, Bruni ♥ I still can't believe my luck to get to know you through hp fandom.

Thanks again to aoifene for writing me both E R I S E D (H/D, NC-17 for graphic violence, language and sex) and D E S I R E (H/D, NC-17, Dark themes). I loved _loved_ E R I S E D when I first read it a year ago as my gift fic, and its continuation - D E S I R E was equally heart-clenching. The image of Draco pressing his face on the mirror has kept haunting me, and I had to put it on paper - so here we have fanart for D E S I R E, dedicated to the amazing aoifene.

( Fanart for D E S I R E (H/D, rated G) )

I don't draw for fics because it's gifted to me - I draw because I love them and find them inspirational. If you have a thing for dark fic like I do, then I totally encourage you to read both E R I S E D and D E S I R E.

Thank you very much for all the heart warming wishes. Thank you lusiology for the lovely card and the watercolor paper, which I can't wait to try out, and is still waiting for good subject to practice on. I'm truly glad to have known you through the h/d fandom. You've always been so supportive to me. I owe you too much. Thank you frayach, vaysh11 and alaana_fair for the LJ gifts - you are all so very thoughtful and generous. Thanks to everybody who posted/messaged me to greet me happy birthday - thank you so much for thinking of me. Thank you lokifan for writing Fin for me - it's such a joy to see a scene I long had in mind got executed - thank you. h/d infidelity has just become my new kink because of you. A huge thanks to leochi for gifting me her loving sumi-e style painting. It's so nice to know that we share the same interest ♥ And the amazing, amazing aoifene wrote me D E S I R E, which has become my fandom trophy. And the magical kasche gifted me Oh, please, which had me scream OMG when I first saw it at work. It's a well-known fact that I adore her style to an unhealthy degree, and to see her drawing h/d feels like chocolate overdose.

Your kindness had made my day. Thank you very much ♥

So the hd_worldcup reveal is up! I drew These Five Years for hd_worldcup. We all knew that already, didn't we. Yawn. :-) Someday I will be free from being the slave of my own style, and put out pic that nobody can recognize. Someday.

Here let me present you an improved version of These Five Years. The frame rate has been doubled to make the movement smoother. It gets more CPU intensive than the original, so beware. Also, I added a start button to the movie, which shows up after the movie finishes loading. The movie won't start by itself until you press the start button, so you can avoid seeing the movie and still read my rambling.

( These Five Years (enhanced) (H/D, NC-17, dub-con, bodily fluids, disturbing theme) )

If you'd like to download the file but don't know how, here I have a compressed file that contains an html and the movie, for your convenience. Just download, uncompress, and open the html file. -> fanon_sword_enhanced.rar

Finally, a new layout -> lillithium

The pics were done a while ago. Something must have been very wrong with me, 'cuz I didn't remember the last time I drew somebody smiling. *smiles*

( Pictures used for the layout... )

Might want to change my default userpic too. Or add more colorful icons to match the theme ♥ LJ layout is so much fun to play with.

First off, I have a rec. This fic in hd_worldcup is going to occupy my dream tonight.

The Last Voice - Team Epilogue
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Infidelity, cheating, angst
Summary: Who knew a single letter could change so much?

I ♥♥♥ it. So. Much. It's my kind of happy ending.

(If you don't like this fic, please don't tell me, 'cuz I'm going to defend it to death and you're going to hate me. *grins*)

And I have more answers to the 100Qs on H/D here.
