This Is The Look Of Someone Who Knows He Can Extinguish Any Fire But IS Also The Fire

Hiiii!

I saw the art you made for The Boy from The Piano Shop and it looks incredible!

I was wondering if you were open to collabs with binders in exchange for a copy?

I have pics of my binds on my instagram @ldm.binding

Thank you!

Lau

Hi Lau,

First—I’m so excited (and I screamed) that you’re binding Soli’s fic!

Feel free to send me a dm here or on discord regarding this collab, thank you 💜

PS. I looked over your ig and gushed over your binds, they’re incredible!

And I’m glad I saw this because I’ve been having this kind of error on my inbox.

Babe

There's something tragic about you

Something so magic about you

Don't you agree?

Lately, all I have are wips that intimidate me, so I tried to do a very quick study to get out from the claws—ended up liking this quite a bit so I thought I’d share it. Happy Friday, everyone!

That day, Draco went home, stunned. Did he just meet the boy who lived? The boy in his favorite storybook?

I like drawing drarry in different ages so today we’ve got these little beans. I’ve also drawn two other hairstyle for Draco (see after cut lol) but I thought that one would be funnier for when years later Harry would poke fun of it.

Cut From The Sky gift, for @mallstars 🩵

This lives rent-free in my head. I've had such joy creating this for you and for the work that means so many things for me. Thank you for sharing CFTS with us!

Check this out on ao3, and also highly recommend this gorgeous podfic by cailyn! This piece is also inspired by the gorgeous works of sunny, phanta, ree and amomorii!

and of course i drew my favorite (legend) scene below:

WIP Snip

Ok so i have mostly finished the long WIP I've been working on for nearly three years. In fact, I'm most of the way through editing the whole thing (all 240k) with only two short scenes left to write. So happy to finally be here! Here's a quick snip of a Hermione POV scene where Draco is helping Harry snd Hermione to escape and she needs to injure him so he looks as though he fought them... it makes sense in-universe i swear.

Draco was still too close to Harry, but Hermione went over to him anyway, arranged him carefully in the dim light so she could be sure that she wouldn’t cause any permanent damage. 

“Hold still,” she instructed him, and raised her wand hand. Draco flinched, then flushed. 

“Sorry,” he said. “I know I’m not very brave about this sort of thing.  I don’t like being at the wrong end of anyone’s wand. Anyway, go on. I’m ready now.”

“Here, let me,” Harry offered, and pushed past Hermione gently. Draco didn’t flinch when Harry lifted his wand, she noticed with irritation, just shook his hair back and smiled brightly. 

“Hello again,” he said to Harry cheerfully, and Harry rolled his eyes fondly and cast with ruthless precision, a vicious Diffindo that tore right through the stupid gauzy shirt Draco was wearing, and opened him up, shallow but nasty-looking, across the meatiest part of his chest, far from any dangerous areas, and then hit him with a quick Incutio that was going to give him a whopper of a shiner. Even weak like this, Harry was terrifying.

“Fucking… ow!” Draco rubbed at his cheekbone resentfully. “Warn a fellow, next time.”

And then from outside they heard the distant rattle of gravel, some angry-sounding voices, and it was all horribly real again. Hermione doused the Lumos instantly, blinking into the blackness, suddenly and newly furious with Harry and his stupid infatuation.

Even now they were whispering to each other, and as her eyes adjusted she could see that Draco had Harry’s face between his hands, and Harry was kissing him, first Draco's mouth and then the palm of each hand, like there was nothing more important in the world.

After a long time stalling, I’ve finally read Dwelling. Also because of this immaculate work of @sits-bound, and @tackytigerfic’s caution encouragement. I may have survived, but not without a crater in my chest made by thousands of shards. Here’s my sloppy attempt to patch that up.

PS. Dear @pl0tty and my irl friends, you’re the OG. Thank you for your insights. ♥︎

Dear Wolf,

3 and 28 for the ask game? ♥︎

PS. Long Haul follow-up omg? (flailing and screaming)

Kismet! 💖🥹 So lovely to see you in my inbox.

3. how you feel about your current WIP

I have two active WIPs (as in, wips I have started writing vs. all of the others that are either in the outline or research stage) at the moment, I feel good about one, and a bit shaky about the other because it's quite skeletal and has a deadline 🙈

28. your least favorite part of the writing process

It sounds cliche to say, but beginnings and endings. I cannot tell you how many abandoned beginnings I've had for almost every story I've published. It's a similar situation with my endings; it's so hard to land a good one. They're the parts of my fics I feel the most self-conscious about.

ask game! writer asks ✍🏻

Draw Drarry Badly Challenge While beta-reading for @phdmama some time ago, I had the joy of finding a glorious typo that the spell-checker didn’t flag because it was a perfectly good word, just not the intended word. I give you: “Harry’s tantalizing pants bugle”.

✨ If you're seeing this, you're tagged! Draw Drarry Badly! ✨

Friends, go read One Question by @heyjude19-writing, who wrote a ficlet so hauntingly good, based on this art, and gifted it to me.

I am not okay.
