At least the moon will keep him company in the dead of night

#micas art #twst #twisted wonderland #malleus draconia #a little bit of context for this: #this is based on my headcanon that malleus suffers from insomnia #there is something weirdly isolating and lonely about the night #when the world gets quiet and cold and dark and you feel like the only moving breathing thing in it #what could he do but wait for it to pass on his own? #its no ones burden to bear but his own and hes not some child who needs to be coddled to sleep #(but maybe. just maybe on the nights where it gets particularly bad he might crave a soft hand to gently comb through his hair) #(hes seem lilia do it countless times for silver when he was little. the memory always makes his bed feel a little bit colder) #also for anyone curious (and bc im unsure i drew it very well) the flower is a white chrysanthemum! #i definitely need to practice flowers more #but uwauuuuughkg this piece was so draining to work on. it gave me so much trouble and im still not completely sold on it #still hope it will resonate with people and that you can all enjoy it!!
