THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE AND IT REALLY MAKES ME SO HAPPY TO SEE THAT NAMOR AND SHURI ARE TOTALLY OFFICIAL IN THE SIEGE OF SHIPPING. Especially because I am as happy with this as with Attuma and Okoye's ship together but above all because I would love to see that they are both together in the next UCM movies and series and we will finally see them become Canon in Wakanda Forever
Especially because I also love that the ship of Namor and Shuri has fans but also the ship of Attuma and Okoye together but what I would really love would be to see that in the next MCU movies and series we can see that the characters of Namor and Shuri fall in love and that we can finally see that they both become a Canon couple finally
After receiving harsh criticism on his latest work, Namor becomes discouraged to create any more art. He unexpectedly finds his muse in his next door neighbor, Shuri, when he hears her playing the piano.
I loved this beautiful Black Panther Fanart of the beautiful ship of the characters of Namor and Shuri together especially because I love that in the Shuri he has his long hair and Namor also has it a little long than before. I must honestly say that I would very much like to see them both in this same way in the following Black Panther movies and above all what I would like most would be to see them become a Couple but also a Canon. If you ask me… but what do you think about it?
By the way, this beautiful Fanart of theirs is not mine and the credits are not for me but I will let you know that right here I will leave you the link of the true creator of this masterpiece on Twitter

To be loved by an artist ☕️🪶
( A pleasant fever dream for all Nashuris everywhere when the new canon mural dropped. Just when I think I understand the depths of Namor’s love, he surprises me. So many levels to his yearning and adoration. My heart be still… )
Thala + Sharpening this Spear by @bardocksheadband-fanfics, author’s copy.
While in Talokan, Shuri conceived Namor’s daughter and after everything that happened, she decided to keep her a secret. Unfortunately for her, Namor has been using the ocean to communicate with the child since she was born. When Thala follows the voice that has been talking to her and she finally meets her baba, she gets more than she bargained for. Her father is not only slightly unhinged, but has been pining for her mother for over a decade.

Thala is SUCH a sweet story, both the fic (seriously, so sweet!!!) and how this bind came to be! This was actually a bind requested by some of the Nashuri community as a gift for the author. After reading Thala, I was totally charmed + of course agreed to bind a physical copy for the author, working through the details with the wonderful @malakki142 and @elegantfirepoetry to coordinate FOUR different artists’ work for the fic + more.
Since Thala features a child of both Talokan and Wakanda, I leaned into themes of blue, green, and palm fronds for the cover material, endpapers, and other decoration. These colors also match the inside, which features a hand-drawn border of Thala’s necklace and tidal wave chapter titles. Both Thala and Namor control water in this fic, so of course the ATLA water tribe symbol was an easy choice to break up the sections.
This was my first time using foil to gild edges, which I think turned out pretty okay for the first time! Its lovely shiny color matches the half beads used for the headbands and the foil used in the cover cutouts, also representing Thala’s necklace. Since a child OC is the driving force of the fic, I wanted to create something vibrant, childlike, but still clean, and I’m so happy with how it turned out!
Thala is a OC kid!fic that weaves a story of how time and family can help overcome the hurt of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Read it on AO3, + thank you bardocksheadband for writing it and to the INCREDIBLE incredible artists (Pomelo on Twitter, @darkkittyart, @midnight-oily, and @anonymousmink) for their wonderful art contributions which made this bind extra special!
