very rushed adamandi fanweek art!!! vincent and ambrose as freshmen (poem + concept art under the cut)

My friend likes fruit. I'll offer him a spare orange I keep on me, and he will jab his thumb into the peel, leaving the flesh a jumbled mess.

My friend doesn't peel oranges the right way. That was his words, his nails were too short cut to cut through the skin, his hands not 'dainty' enough to separate the pieces, he never did like things he couldn't do well.

My friend doesn't like the way the pulp stuck to his hands. I wasn't ever opposed to getting my hands dirty, so I'll peel my orange as best I can, letting the white stringy bits fall off with the exterior, and he'll toss the scraps in the bin.

Since my friend likes fruit, I'll cut the orange in two halves, one for him, one for me --- it's hard for me to give my all for things, though I'm trying to give my all for him.

Even though I cannot do much, I can still peel oranges. The tips of my fingers can worm their way above the flesh without harming the fruit, I can share half of my time, my routine, my life, I can still be the person who peels your oranges.

#oranges....... #i made a list of headcanons like. a few months ago. and i found them recently and one of them was that ambrose couldn't peel oranges right #(motherfucker has no hand eye coordination) #is this orange poetry. im not completely sure what orange poetry is. #originally it was going to be ambrose pulling vincent through the rain in a crowd on campus #then it was going to be a comic but i got art block <3 #i might make the first idea later because it was supposed to have quincy and portia in the background and i really like drawing them #trying to draw on clip studio paint. if it looks peculiar thats why #adamandi #adamandifanweek #vincent aurelius lin #ambrose wellington bassford #my art #original poetry

I received a package in the mail today.

Image ID under cut.

[Image ID: A digitally drawn 5 panel comic done with sketchbook pencil in a colour scheme of turquoises, oranges and pinks/reds. An old-fashioned mailbox with the flipper up and an unopened gift box inside, an image of the now open gift box overflowing with cartoon style hearts, a hand offering a pack of mint flavoured gum, a VCR surrounded by VHS tapes, and the torso of a woman holding a hand over her heart. The captions for each read: Something about a gift from a stranger...; and how they know me only as I am now... a culmination of my truest form up to this very moment; Something about how my own mother, after an entire lifetime, still never remembers that I dislike the taste of mint...; and haven't been into that movie... for over a decade.; Something about being known... for the first time again.; (and beneath the panels) Something about having never been known at all... End Image ID]

Oh. Oh.

So this is what it means

To not be burnt out.

I left the office, and arrived

Home

With two pages scribbled on the metro

Of a comic I want to draw

A story I want

To tell

It's pouring out and I want to do it justice, I want

To do it well

And oh.

Oh.

This is what it means

To not be burnt out

Is to tell myself

I'll do it bad

I'll do it scared

And frustrated

And happy

I'll do it

Because I

Can.

I still have spoons.

#writing #this came out looking like weird poetry but. for real. #I've been in the new job for 2 months now and it's so much better #I'm so much better #and yesterday's work brought me so much joy #it's simple things but damn #im gonna make a comic about cows. and a dog. and im so happy! #and idk if I'll post it here or keep it for myself #or if I'll finish it at all #but i am making things again!!

"The Waste Land" by T. S. Eliot, page 1

Ever since completing my comics adaptation of T. S. Eliot’s “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock,” I have wanted to do something similar with Eliot’s most famous and celebrated poem, “The Waste Land.” But besides being extremely complex and often difficult to interpret,”The Waste Land” (First published 1922) is very long, and this always deterred me from getting started. It was only recently that…

As Simple As The End: A Poem

Spoilers for The Immortal Thor issue 7.

All stories must end,

It is the way of stories.

Yet, to borrow from another tale,

Something too much of this.

Is it too much to ask, O Norns,

For a clean break, with no unfinished business?

For a long life, for forgiveness from my brother,

At long last earned, without conditions?

Is it too much to ask, you Fates,

For a peaceful retelling, where the only changes

Are made by us, now, with nothing sinister

Lurking in the shadows, rewriting our history?

An ending. If only this were the last ending

We would have to contend with for awhile.

If only I were as everlasting as Wildfire,

As fleet of foot as my own Thoughts.

If only I, too, could wrestle Death,

And nearly stay upright with pride.

If only I could meet my own foretold end,

And live on to tell the tale of it.

But that all is behind us, brother.

My death and rebirth and rising

Like a phoenix from my own grave.

Now, like a raven, nevermore.

An ending, yes, an ending.

It is how these things go, brother mine, and yet,

Sometimes they are the hardest parts

For a Teller to sculpt from the clay of story.

Where do I end? When do I stop?

You told me once that I was the best

At running away. I think if you could,

You would eat your words now. Yet still.

How do I stop running, brother?

How do I let go, of life, of breath in my lungs?

How do I let go of you, when all I want

Is to protect you from whatever truths may yet come?

I know what it is like to wake to your life a lie,

Your parent a stranger, your world turned on its head.

I know what it is to unleash something so terrible

You cannot stuff it back into its box when you lose control.

I can help you, in this adventure, and the next,

But where does it end, Thor?

And when do I grow bored as your ally,

And return once more to being your foe?

I do not want to be your enemy again.

I do not want to go back to that past.

I'd sooner die, and I know that isn't a threat,

Isn't a vow. It's a premonition.

I hope I get a chance to write the ending myself,

But Thor, if my end is written for me, know this,

All stories must end, this is true,

But a story told once may be told again.
