Two roads neurodiverged in a yellow wood, or whatever it was that Robert Frost said.

ever thought about how aegon was alicent‘s first and her last left? your house is burning and your children are gone. except him. except him. he came back to her, unrecognizable, burnt and twisted, but he came back to her. she has him still.
i have done everything you’ve asked me to. i try so hard but it will never be enough for you. and it wasn‘t. she asked him to save their family, save the realm, save her. he didn‘t, he couldn‘t. he did come back to her. he had cursed her on the day he was born.
do you love me? you imbecile. i love those bones of you. i love you so much i have sacrificed everything to see you on the throne. i have sacrificed my youth. sacrificed my decency. sacrificed my oldest. i have sacrificed you. i love you. my oldest, my firstborn, my sacrifice.
and as he walks towards his mother like an animal to his butcher she plants a kiss on his forehead. her little sacrificial lamb, he came back. came back to her. did i do well mother? did i do enough? no. i love you. you came back.
i wonder who he thought about when the poison touched his lips.

lestappen but the enormity of their desire disgusts them both. God they’re so weird about each other and don’t know what to do about it
oh yes anon I love this song. they are constantly drawn to each other in every universe by something that is compulsive, beyond logic to explain. their mouths meet and their hands join and their teeth gnash and in every language and era and plot-mandated near-insurmountable odds — they’re still circling each other round and round, fight or flight, no matter what.
in universe one, alpha charles wrinkles his nose at the smell of alpha max and doesn’t stop to ask why he can smell his every note. in two, a pair of agents meet at a bar and max thinks charles is deeply unprofessional for flirting. in three, they’re hiking in the mountains and caught in a storm with only each other’s body heat to cling to for safety.
in every world i write them in they’re yanking, thrashing, biting at the string of fate and asking “why you? why here? why now??”
and the answer is variation of the same hauntingly beautiful tune that you know, at a cellular level, deep in the ventricles of your heart, each time.
(they’re star-crossed. a little stupid. and somehow, they are in love.)

Vanessa an' Mike aren't drawn to each other bc they're secretly in love wit' each other or anythin' like that, they're jus' two people that have been hurt by the same person and happened to come across each other at the right place an' right time, and are able to understand each other in a way that no one else could wit' them, and Mike who finally has closure so badly wants to help Vanessa overcome years of abuse that she had spent years sufferin' from in silence, and maybe if they met sooner they could've helped each other sooner, but the circumstances they met in were perfect for both of them, an' I'm not ok-

So I watched Elemental for the first time a couple days ago and now Ember and Wade have my whole heart--
So of course, I had to draw them, but Boblin. Boblin Elemental marriage proposal anyone? Eh? :D
I also used this as an opportunity to do the color palette exercise again! Seriously, why am I always able to motivate myself to color and put in some simple shading/lighting but never to do line art? I guess that's one of the mysteries of the universe that'll forever go unanswered.
This is also based on this gorgeous fanart based on a deleted scene of the movie by @hollustrate:
