First Meetings~

At last, Lord Elrond let go and stepped away. He repeated his original question: “Are you lost?”  Miserably, Beetle shook her head, tucking her hands behind her back. She wasn’t. She still remembered the way back to their rooms. “I was looking for water, my lord. I’m sure I can find it. I thought maybe-- the fountain--”  “To drink?” She nodded, still staring at her feet. “For my friend.”  He put a hand on her shoulder and turned back toward the main path. “Come, then. We’ll find Lindir. It’s still a little while before they’ll serve the next meal. We expected your company to sleep a long time.” 

-- And the Stars Shine the Same, Chapter 1 - Beetle

I am once again drawing this scene. I did it again because first of all I love them and second of all I wanted to do a proper illustration for it, rather than just a doodle here and there. So here it is, with flower symbolism because I can't help myself.

Beetle's Side

Baby's Breath - innocence, purity of heart

Starflower - courage

Cinquefoil - beloved daughter

Elrond's Side

Queen Anne's Lace - safe haven

Anthurium - hospitality

Middle

Daffodil - rebirth, new beginnings

I'll probably do more of these but for now, here's chapter one :)

#this was a PROJECT #i hate doing sets/backgrounds #but i wanted to do a full page so badly #anyway them :) #elrond #beetle | elrian #and the stars shine the same #beneath a boundless sky #trying to jog my own writing block loose by doing fanart of my own fanfic lol #ughhghgh #I Miss Them #she looks tiny and she IS tiny but also i feel the need to remind everyone that Elrond is seven feet tall #tall ass neck ass motherfucker #my art

Crowley doesnt really care for flowers but Aziraphale does so he asks what he should plant and Aziraphale tells him. Anathema comes over later and is so done because they all symbolize love. There's peonies (happy marriage), Peruvian lilies (friendship and devotion), gardenias (secret love and devotion), queen Anne's lace (a safe haven), birds of paradise (faithfulness and love), red and yellow roses (love and friendship), and green carnations (gay love). Anathema tells Crowley and he's like Wot

Crowley: "so is he... trying to tell me he loves me?"

Anathema: "you're married"

Queen anne's lace? 🤗🤗🤗please

thank you ❤

Queen Anne’s Lace symbolizes a haven or sanctuary. It signifies complexity and delicateness.

@blanketinwinter

Albus sighed as the slick mouth moved across his skin, raising the hairs on his skin in goosebumps as the chilly air encountered the trace of wetness Gellert’s kisses left behind. When Gellert started to go lower, Albus placed a hand on his hair and tugged it gently.

Gellert looked up his mouth slightly open, red and glistening from the kisses. “What is it?” he asked, a slight frown marring his proud forehead.

“Could we just lay here? Not do anything?”

Gellert frowned but nodded after a moment. “If that’s what you want, of course.” Gellert slid to lay down next to him and reached for Albus. Albus went to him willingly, placing his head on Gellert’s shoulder and his right hand going over Gellert’s heart.

Albus closed his eyes and breathed deeply. The air around them was still and heavy with oncoming rain. Birds were chirping in the nearby trees, their song the only sound besides their breathing. 

Snuggling closer, Albus started drawing lazy circles on Gellert’s skin. He felt like he could breathe again. Back at the house, it sometimes felt like Albus was suffocating, the absence of their mother and Aberforth’s loud disapproval seeming to draw all the air from the room. Even as he felt a slight twinge of guilt from leaving Aberforth alone with Ariana, being with Gellert felt freeing.

Albus flicked his eyes upwards and smiled as he felt a small kiss placed on the crown of his head. Gellert was watching him, his eyes intense as they traced their path across Albus’ features. 

A hand gently cradled his cheek. “Come with me,” Gellert breathed. Albus blinked his eyes. His eyes burning with conviction, Gellert elaborated, “When the summer is over. Come with me. If you are worried about your sister, we can take her with us.” 

Albus closed his mouth, his (weak) protest dying on his tongue. He laid his head back on Gellert’s shoulder and thought about Gellert’s suggestion. He wanted to go, more than anything, but Aberfoth would undoubtedly protest, and Ariana was unpredictable at best. But they were so powerful, him and Gellert, surely they would be able to contain her if needed. And Aberforth would have to listen to him. He was the eldest after all. 

Decision made, his doubts shoved aside for the moment, Albus raised his head and looked back at Gellert, who had been silently watching him and waiting for an answer. Albus smiled, “Yes, I’ll come with you.” 

Gellert laughed brilliantly and bent down to kiss him. Albus tilted his head to the side, so Gellert’s lips connected with his cheek instead of his lips. He smiled at Gellert’s disgruntled expression, “But we do have to talk more about the details. Ariana- she could be a problem.”

Gellert nodded his head impatiently. “Yes, I know, but does it have to be now?”

Albus shook his head, a smile playing on his lips. He raised his leg over Gellert’s body and sit atop him. “I suppose not,” he whispered before placing his lips gently on Gellert’s. 

They kissed slowly, hands gently tracing bare skin until the first drops of rain landed on the ground. Gellert’s wand flew to his hand, and with a quick swish, they were safe inside a cocoon, the sound of rain and the still singing birds muffled, leaving them dry and disconnected from the rest of the world.

orange, green, and blue maybe? :D

DUDE I spent so much time on this especially researching flowers.

Orange: Does your f/o have a signature/recognisable scent? If so, describe it!

Oh this is fun! I have a really good sense of smell and associate lots of smells with different things.

Hm. I think he smells like a library....? Is that weird? There’s a library in my hometown that has a very specific smell. Like of slightly old paper and books, and very mildly of cleaning solutions—not bad or anything, but after working in the archives it clings to you. And black tea, and a bit of aftershave if he’s had energy to use it, I bet. Cigarette smoke if he’s been smoking recently (under duress and all.)

Green: If you had to give your f/o a bouquet of flowers, what type of flowers would they be?

Oh this is difficult! I love flowers but I don’t know much about them. Maybe greenery with a small splash of color, and something that smells nice and relaxing, but not too overpowering. A small bouquet, something not too ostentatious or big. And something with flower language, especially herbal!

Feverfew (protection, used in treating headaches,) Lavender (admiration, also smells nice and is calming,) Cedar (think of me), Jerusalem oak (reciprocated love), Milk Vetch (your presence softens my pain), Queen Anne’s lace (haven), Verbena (can treat anxiety and other issues). Maybe some myrtle or other greenery.

Blue: What is the best way to cheer your f/o up when they’re sad? How do they cheer you up when you’re sad?

I think when Jon’s feeling sad, he can self isolate in order not to hurt others, or lash out. If he’s anxious, I think listening to him and just being a comforting presence would be really nice. I can imagine just letting him rest, close his eyes in a safe place, would be good. I’m always here to give gentle words or praise.

But if it’s the kind of touch-starved sadness, I can definitely see him just laying his head in my lap, and I just stroke his hair and face. Or he leans his head on my shoulder, or just general cuddles. Let this poor man rest.

For me, when I’m sad, I also tend to self isolate and cry a lot. Having someone to cry on, or just someone who can hold me close and tell me everything will be okay...that’s the best. Maybe if it’s just general malaise, just sitting together and watching TV, or maybe going out for coffee and dinner would be a good way to combat it.
