It's weird to think I've wanted to make fanart for this series for like two or three years now because it really dosn't feel like its been that long but hey, I got there eventually even if it is just a polished sketch.
These are my interpretions of @crinklytinfoil 's characters from their fic 'The Crewmate Who Knew TOO Much' which has been just the most wild of rides, I love it.
I was also gonna draw Johnny since it seems like he's not dead yet but honetly this took way longer than I thought and Purple's stupid face made me want to delete this more than once so he didn't make the cut.

Tharja from Fire Emblem Awakening
Okay, a little late, but here is a Summer Tharja drawing for her birthday (April 2). And in an official outfit this time, too. I really should draw her more often considering she's my second favorite character after Samus

y'know what we don't talk about enough? Hazel died. We talk about how she grew up in the 30's and 40's and we talk about how out of place she feels in the modern world, but! She died! She was dead! She has spent more time dead than alive, and not by a close margin!
How does that effect a person??? We got some of it in the flashbacks, but once those caught up with her present timeline and she shared them, they just kind of... disappeared. And she was a regular girl with some weird past experiences. That's one way of doing it, sure!
I think it would have been a lot cooler if she was just a touch creepier. If she felt a little bit Wrong. Yeah, in general she's more approachable than her brother, she's more sociable and less closed off, but. If you actually spend any time with her, it can be difficult to tell which child of the underworld is actually more unsettling.
Hazel is bright of personality and has a dazzling smile, but sometimes she'll just... shut down. She'll go completely blank for like half an hour and nobody knows what to do with it. Sometimes she forgets she's alive. Sometimes she'll spout the grimmest shit you've ever heard like it's nothing, she won't even notice it's weird until the room goes quiet. She spent decades in Asphodel, which is designed to make people forget about themselves and wander around for eternity, only she didn't have the luxury of forgetting! Wild! After she comes back to life, sometimes she forgets that she's allowed to Do Stuff now. She can spend so long sitting and staring at nothing. Sometimes she'll start crying on cloudless days because it hits her again that she can actually feel the warmth of the sun on her skin and she can hear birdsong. Every little mundane experience is a blessing and she will make you remember that in the most foreboding way possible.

laura kearney is insane for starting out as the typical horror movie character who wants to go off into places they really should NOT be in, and then flipping it around into becoming the biggest badass.

I love Lottie so much because yeah sure they could've gone full teenage girl oracle that only talks in riddles but no. She's actually allowed to just be a normal person that calls their friends a fucking loser

There is so much nuance to the ep 6 scene between KJ and Lauren, I can’t get over it.
the motion older!KJ makes as they walk out, reaching for Lauren, realizing just in time that they are, in fact, in her hometown in Ohio and cutting short before she can land what was probably going to be an instinctive kiss
KJ coming in hot with the world’s most polite “hello!” and managing to make what must feel lightly like small talk for thirty seconds before dropping her voice to this shy, slightly-terrified question
the inability to hold eye contact. the faltering, wordless noises. the way she blinks like she’s seconds from just passing out in the middle of this theater--that is exactly how it feels to come out to someone for the first time. the edges of your vision go a little fuzzy, your heart is in your throat, you genuinely feel shaky, and all of that is so present in this performance
the sense of mild defeat in how she just lands on “movies” instead of “girls”, like she’s embarrassed she can’t just say it
the gentle ah hah expression on Lauren’s face as she realizes what this petrified kid is trying to ask her, and how smoothly she doesn’t correct her--just rolls with this safe code word
KJ’s nod and very tiny “uh-huh” without moving like any part of her face. like she’s reverting to standing as still as possible, protective coloring coming up in every inch of her frame
Lauren actually taking a minute to think about it before answering. and and then not giving the answer KJ asked for--”how did YOU know”--but what KJ actually needs to hear. what any kid in her position would: not everyone will get it, but everyone’s journey is their own, and there is no rush
(again, this is why I’m so delighted they wrote it the way they did--KJ and Lauren, not KJ and older!KJ, because older!KJ would have a definitive answer to give. it might be “I always knew, in the back of my mind” or it might be “when I was eighteen and kissed a girl for the first time”, but whatever the answer, it would cement KJ back into a box. this is your future, immutable, and there is no journey you could take that I haven’t already gone on. I’m so fucking glad they didn’t do this, that they let her have the reassurance that any timeline is the right one if it’s hers.)
again, that flutter-blink/quick breath combo that looks like she’s gonna pass out--but this time, there’s relief in it. it’s less “how do I say this Huge Thing” and more “oh thank god, she knows what I’m asking, she knows without me saying, and she’s being kind”
It is beautifully put together, such a gentle way of saying to this baby gay, “Nobody can tell you who you are except you, but whoever that winds up being is so okay. Listen to yourself. Trust yourself. You will be happy, I promise you.” It is a critical bit of advice so many queer people just don’t get, and to write it into KJ’s story is one of the show’s biggest kindnesses.

One day, enjoying a picnic of strawberries and cream and milk in the Bois de Boulogne, she met the King walking alone, having dismissed his guards. Lightly, she sprang up and ran to him and he, taking her in his arms, gave her a hearty kiss. The watching crowds were in ecstasy. Cries of Vive le Roi and clapping of hands filled the Bois. It was an idyllic moment.
- Dorothy Moulton-Mayer, Marie Antoinette: The Tragic Queen

Little Hope idea that has never left me... I wld have loved if the crew ran into their version of Megan and she was like. With them the whole time. Mostly bc I think it wld be rlly funny if she was super sweet towards Andrew but just horribly ominous and strange to everyone else. Andrew like omg yall r so mean 2 her :(( shes just a kid shes literally never done anything wrong. Meanwhile she is behind him Fully speaking in tongues
