Character Cards - Abe - The Hunter

I'm so excited to share this with you! I commissioned the amazing and talented Sara - aka @nerdferatum to create the character cards that are used in the game to determine the order of the recouplings.

Abe is first - and I'm in love with how well Sara has captured him and his quiet strength. And look how gorgeous he is ❤️

My favourite set of tarot cards irl are art deco style and it makes my heart so happy to see the characters drawn in this beautiful style - thank you so much @nerdferatum!

#I love him so much #check out sara's other art! #the talent! #interactive fiction #buried love #buried love character art #abe buried love

#cw: animal death #cw: blood #i think after this ash goes back home and finds herself thinking of snow more and more #while snow returns to her own kingdom and forgets much of this encounter until ash reaches some renown as a monster with a blade #after which snow becomes extremely fixated on her and remembers her as the girl who watched her bury a dead bird in a flowerbed #lesbian first dates be like #anyway #i like the irony of snow's nickname being little dove seeing as how shes not exactly a very peaceful person #although she may seem like it on the surface #shes kind of difficult to write too. ive gotta balance her veil of innocence with genuine sincerity #the fact that she believes her own delusions is what makes her such a fun character #one day ill move on from these characters but i love my homicidal daughters very much #thank you for reading #sapphic art #comic art #stillindigo art #stillindigo comics #heartearters

cataloguing the various times Cass has shown an interest in and/or love of the visual and performing arts since her introduction as references for my Cass fic and it's actually kind of maddening that nothing has really ever been done with this considering how many times it's been referenced.

for those interested (and this is a non-inclusive list):

Dance is the most textually supported art form Cass has shown interest in. Pre-reboot, Cass does an acrobatic-style dance for Jean-Paul as a gift and thank you for working together in Azrael: Agent of the Bat #61 and has a TON of fun "mosh-pit dancing" while attending a rave in Batgirl Vol. 1 #63:

Meanwhile post-Flashpoint, Tynion had an entire mini arc about Cass discovering ballet (starting in Batman & Robin Eternal #7) and dance as an art form she has a major fascination with (Detective Comics #950-957 and scattered references throughout the rest of his Tec run):

She actually lives in an abandoned room at the Gotham Metropolitan Ballet in the out-of-continuity Harley Quinn and the Birds of Prey mini:

Cass does a lot of experiments with clothing, makeup, and fashion throughout her Batgirl run (particularly during the Horrocks and Gabyrch eras)...some of which has occasionally carried over to post-reboot!Cass's fashion choices, like her unicorn robe in Batgirls:

She also designed and created her own Batgirl costume using pilfered arts and crafts supplies in the Shadow of the Batgirl graphic novel:

Cass was seen acting out scenes from Shakespeare's The Tempest with Clayface in Detective Comics #958 as a form of speech therapy:

Steph mentioned that Infantino Carmini’s The Three Graces was Cass's "favorite painting in Gotham" in Catwoman (2018) #45, implying that she knows enough about painting and visual art to have a favorite:

Post-Crisis!Cass got a lot of her vocabulary from watching visual media (especially television). Many of her later pre-reboot appearances are littered with various pop culture references that she absorbs through watching tv and film (Alien and Star Wars, for example):

there was also a semi-recurring gag of Cass picking up off-color/outdated/weird expressions from tv shows she watched in order to learn about criminology and how to "talk like normal people":

Also Cass watching those awful daytime reality tv shows? unfortunately canon:

Her fighting style has also always been depicted as very fluid and acrobatic, other characters watching Cass fight have sometimes referred to her fighting "dance-like" or "poetry in motion," and artists often incorporated dance-esque choreography into her training sessions with Bruce and the Bats' VR fighting simulator:

The one art form she continually has no interest in is literature (largely because for a long time she couldn't read and had no real interest in learning how), much to ex-Head Librarian!Barbara's frustration, though I've been told she's apparently reading Edgar Allen Poe in Batgirls right now.

Looking at all of this together makes it kind of frustrating that no writer has really done the connect-the-dots between Cass's notable, recurring interest in the visual/performing arts and her longing to express herself in a way that can be easily understood by other people. Tynion got the closest with the ballet/dance obsession, but he was constrained by having to balance a fairly large ensemble cast and so didn't have the space to really give that kind of attention to her character growth.

#cassandra cain #batgirl #cassandra cain meta #batfam #dc comics #barbara gordon #stephanie brown #basil karlo #why is Batgirls so horrible at doing literally anything with Cass it's the perfect space for the writers to do something with this #bc honestly I need less 'ballet obsessed!Cass' and more 'Cass gets into a new type of visual/performing art every other month' #(and a writer to finally back up my 'Cass loves old silent films' agenda because it's SITTING RIGHT THERE buried in her media obsession) #also the reaction that Babs has to Cass's disinterest & then seeming inability to learn how to read...painful but excellent character flaw

the sequel to the buried and the bound is called THE SUMMER QUEEN, and it officially has a cover! art by helen mask; design by samira iravani.

here’s a synopsis:

As a new coven, Aziza, Leo, and Tristan faced evil and triumphed. All that’s left is to put their lives back together, a process complicated by the fallout from painful secrets, the emotional and physical scars they now carry, and the mysteries that still haunt them. 

But with the approach of the solstice comes the arrival of strange new visitors to Blackthorn: the Summer Court, a nomadic community of fairies from deep in Elphame. They’ve journeyed to the border between the human world and fairyland, far from their usual caravan route, to take back something that belongs to them—something Leo’s not willing to lose. 

Refusing to give up without a fight, he makes a risky deal with the Summer Court’s princess and regent. The challenge she proposes sends Coven Blackthorn into the farthest, wildest reaches of Elphame. 

But when you play games with the Fair Folk, even winning has a cost.

the summer queen will be released on 1/23/24, and is available for pre-order now!

#booklr #fantasy books #ya books #lgbt books #book art #book covers #the buried and the bound #i love how they look together #the fox in aziza's arms is an important character who absolutely deserves a starring role on the cover #many of my plotting decisions way back in the early drafting stages of this book came down to me asking myself: #how can i put a sword in leo's hands? #and look where we are now #there might be a version of this cover with slightly different colors floating around online but THIS is the final! #tbatb

Character Cards - Catarina - The Magician

The wonderful @nerdferatum has done it again! Here's the character card for Catarina and omg I'm obsessed.

Catarina is strong and powerful, but has a vulnerability she keeps hidden when it comes to love and I think this card captures those sides of her perfectly. Plus... she's STUNNING. The colours, the design, the levels of witchy sass. Perfection💜

Thank you for bringing her to life for me @nerdferatum!

If you'd like a say in which character cards are created next I'll be putting a poll up next week!

#just keep staring at her #love at first sight #there's isn't much I wouldn't do for her #buried love #buried love art commission #buried love character card #interactive fiction #catarina buried love

#asktotag #sonic exe #xhouse #((No idea how to explain we have like way too many interpretations and spoofs of the guy)) #((Like I could ramble about the ''Master File & Distributions'' or ''Spoof'' variants but honestly talk so much I end up saying nonsense?)) #((Main reason why my art seems to have no context is because I literally voice chat and ramble for 4-6 hours)) #((Essentially about the newest hyperfixated multiverse we've created-)) #((-for our far to energetic ideas for us to narrow down & ''choose'' one because there's no singular correct interpretation of art)) #((There's far too many variables to consider one universe as the most canon so obviously we have to branch from every possible angle-)) #((-and end up with at least 30 of the same character but in different flavours)) #((NOT ACCOUNTING FOR THE FACT THAT IT'S ADDICTING TO MAKE SPOOFS FROM JUST ONE INTERACTION TO SEE WHERE THEY GO)) #((Like.

It’s been eleven years since the last time I read Inkheart but here I am, hyperfixating on this same literal dumpster fire of a man just like when I was 15

I drew him as he first appears in the book- sad and soaking wet, standing outside Mo and Meggie’s house in the rain.

#dustfinger #inkheart #I am enjoying this book so much more as an adult it's ridiculous #wow tumblr really does murder quality doesn't it #I outlined him in pen because he's from *Ink*heart I'm so funny #also I'm trying to get over my fear of using pen on my pictures #this definitely helped #my art #drawings #I love this disaster of a man so much #I think he's where my love for this type of character started #antiheroes with tragic backstories who are really kind and soft but have buried that kindness and softness under layers of trauma #and people who think they're cowards but are actually very brave

[deansass]

in theory if someone is working on an original comic, what’s the best way to share & post it?

#art #I made an oc and people on insta are loving her #and I’m excited to actually make a full visual story for her #but I also don’t want it to get buried in a post or make it hard to read #I know webtoon exists but would ppl read something there? #basically I know nothing abt posting comics #but you guys would like the character and if you’ve been following me for years you’ll know my recurrent OCs are basically this girl
