[image description: a pink-tinted digital illustration of martin blackwood chasing jonathan sims amidst falling papers and a manila folder over a blue glowy background with hearts. in the top left and bottom right corners are papers with closeups of martin and jon's faces in them - martin is blushing sheepishly and smiling while looking off to the side, holding a pen to his chin, and jon is blushing and looking angrily flustered at the viewer while gripping his tie. he has heart pupils. martin is a fat, tan-skinned, mixed white and filipino man, wearing a white collared shirt and a red tie. jon is a thin, brown-skinned pakistani person, wearing a pink jacket and a blue tie. surrounded by them are various objects - several pens, an overturned blue mug of green tea, and a lighter with a web design on it. end id]
So I'm living with a foreign exchange student from spain, and imagine my shock when she not only likes shameless, but knows what AO3 is and knows fandom exists! I showed her the @gallacrafts community, she thinks we're really cool 😎
Anyway, she let me borrow her tablet and tablet pen (which has procreate on it) to draw this! The bumper of mickey and Ian's stolen car... with a lil mickey-esque addition. Image I/D is in alt text, enjoy!
"Have you forgotten sir, we were at war? A fight with an alien race for the very survival of our species. I feel I must remind you that it is an undeniable, and may I say fundamental quality of man, that when faced with extinction, every alternative is preferable."
"When you spend every day fighting a war, you to demonize your attackers. To you, they're evil, they're subhuman. Because if they weren't, what would that make you? What I'm trying to say... is I've been afraid to see you for what you really are. You're our brothers. Our sisters. And the things we've done to one another are unforgivable."
"These guys want to use us, take us away from our families, and send us all over the dad-gum galaxy just to test if their agents are ready for the big fight? Well... guess I'm interested in showin' em exactly what a big fight is all about! So I'm not ordering you to go. I ain't even asking. You do what you gotta do, Private."
came from the same series whose standard fare is lines like:
"What in the hell are you two doing?" / "We're being executed by our own men, sir." / "Cut it out."
"I only drink the blood of my enemies, and the occasional strawberry yoohoo."
"You always said I could sleep when I’m dead, Sarge, and guess what? I am dead. This purgatory is about to become purga-snore-y, yawn!"
...and both categories manage to be a poignant statement about the nature of war and what it does to the people in it.
Hewoo! It's been a while, I wanted to make this back when the start of Doc was having beef with Scar and Grian and it was funny how Ren was just here along the ride.
