Clarice had tried all day to subdue her anxiety. Arriving in Florence had been overwhelming enough: getting to know her new city, her new house, her new family was a lot to take in in itself… but the thought of meeting Lorenzo for the first time after they’d been marriage unnerved her the most. That they’d been married by proxy made it even stranger. The first and only conversation they ever had before kept coming back to her memory: I told him I would never be wed to anyone… and yet here I am, his wife. God, I hope I’ve done the right thing. Bianca and Lucrezia had introduced her to this new home and made her feel as welcome as they could, but they could only assist her so much when it came to adjusting to all these changes. 
Her private chambers were empty when she entered. Clarice had been a little disappointed that he wouldn’t be there to receive her - how much easier it would have been - but she knew that Medici business could wait for no one. So after a maid had washed and combed her hair, she climbed on the bed for a moment, thinking. There were so many roles that she’d have to play now… Wife, daughter and sister in-law, a mother at some point in the future, a Medici most of all. It still felt strange to her. Marriage ought to be the natural fate of an Orsini, but she never readied herself for it: the future that she’d planned couldn’t have been more far removed from this life… but she’d agreed to this, and having given her word to her family that she would wed Lorenzo, Clarice refused to look back.
So she tried to make herself comfortable. The mattress was warm and cozy against her back: certainly a good start for her endeavor. The bed seemed to surround her limbs in a maternal embrace and Clarice sighed, closing her eyes. She didn’t know when she’d dozed off once they were open again, but the knocking on the door startled her into an abrupt wakefulness. She combed her fingers through her hair, fixing her veil over her head. Her hands patted the fabric of her gown as she stepped closer to the door, making sure that her appearance was properly fixed before she could open it.
At last he was there, and all she could do was blush, sending her gaze down.
“Lorenzo…”, she said, chuckling timidly. “You were right about this, after all…”

— A gente pode depois disso fazer um belo de um tour gastrônomico em Tóquio, principalmente em lojas de doces já que você gosta tanto. — Clarice estava com Cinder no telefone. — Em cinco minutos chegamos, preciso desligar filha. — O telefone foi desligado e Clarice respirou fundo, para depois olhar para Dazai. — E as situações novamente nos colocam juntos, mas não em situações divertidas.
Tumblr media
— Bem, eu vou tentar parecer calma porque hoje eu posso virar uma fera. — Disse ríspida. — Dazai, apontaram uma arma pra minha filha, esse pessoal do Ango não tem preparo real nenhum! — Disse bravíssima e respirou fundo pra aparentar desapontada. — Olha, não é porque a Cinder é a minha filha, mas ela é tão boa, nunca me deu trabalho real e essas coisas acontecem com ela.

@blumhouses sent -> clarice kisses the back of dyna's neck
Tumblr media
They had just been getting ready to go out, wanting to make sure they looked nice for Clarice, when the other walked into the room. Dyna caught sight of them through the vanity mirror and offered an apologetic smile. "Almost done, I promise." But then there was Clarice with lips upon Dyna's neck and they couldn't help but shudder and sigh at the feeling, turning their head. "Dessert before dinner? How very like you."

closed starter for @urbnlgnds (clarice) location: the finch's house
Tumblr media
Anything worth loving in this world was also worth fighting for - at least, that's what Caspian thought. The road to where he and his wife were now was not an easy one by any means, but the uphill battle was more than worth it.
It was no secret that Caspian thrived better by the sea; the little family of three had moved around a little, often staying in more costal cities, but Dagger Point finally felt like home. He had a feeling Clarice felt the same way, the way she'd taken to setting up the house with Adrian in just the right way (what that way was, Caspian did not know, and his now twenty year old made that very apparent.)
"Hey, you," his eyes lit up as he saw Clarice on the couch as he entered the house, immediately crossing the room to place a kiss on her forehead. "You look gorgeous as always. What have you and baby finch been up to today?"

Truth be told, Clarice loved the idea. It was the right kind of dramatic for her taste and she wasn't above even the pettiest of forms of revenge. Besides, it wasn't like her ex boyfriend didn't deserve it. "You want to throw in a little fake crying too? I can do that." Clarice proposed, grinning from ear to ear.
Maybe it was her own loneliness or the fact that Clarice hadn't been with a man for a long time, but the idea was actually making her excited. Already coming up with other ideas to make it more and more believable, Clarice took Arturo's hand into her own. Casting a glance at the other table and low and behold, her ex was still looking at them. "And how long are we looking to be engaged? People are gonna start asking for a wedding date." The vampire chuckled, her face even going as far as to heat up.

this 'women's luncheon' is supposed to be for connecting females around the area of their small town. victoria doesn't know why she agreed to make an appearance ( though let's be honest, it's probably to stop susan from talking her ear off in the grocery store. ), but she's here and she's well dressed enough that she looks....well okay she doesn't look like most of the ladies here but she's decent enough.
tucking a small strand of hair behind her ear, she peruses the tables a bit before finding her spot, a little placard with her name on it engraved on a piece of metal. wow, they're really goin' all out. she picks it up to give it a better look when she realizes that most of the other tables are already full. guess she's stuck either sitting by herself or with a buncha latecomers.
taking a sip of the offered glass of water - though she's tempted to stop by the open bar for the wine, at least in about five minutes or so. she doesn't want to risk the title of 'local alcoholic' but she needs something to calm the nerves in her belly.
when she does go, she spots someone sitting at their table and grabs a secondary glass - hopefully the lady likes red wine! there's a small smile on her face when she approaches, settling down into her seat before pushing the glass over in the older blonde's direction.
people are speaking in hushed tones at all the other tables, some a little too loud for her liking, considering she can hear a mix of conversations that she has no intention of following at this point.
"i think they set this thing up just to gossip 'bout us all."
before holding a hand out towards @mulholland. there is a kindness in her voice that is reserved for new folks, and she's being as polite as possible to make a good impression.
"i'm victoria, s'nice to meet you, miss."

SUPER OLD RAINBOW! ART THREAD!!! Open only if you are brave enough to face teen me's cringe art...
(mostly joking but fr white Mimi and skinny Boo jumpscare below)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Very first digital piece of Boo and Mimi circa 2011!! I was 14 when I drew this. Usually I'm able to look back fondly at super old art of mine but this one does make me cringe a liiiiittle bit. Mimi girl what are you wearing, why are you white. Boo also had pink eyes in the beginning, which she would continue to have for several years to come (even in the current iteration of RAINBOW! they were pink at first, I later recolored those pages) but it was only later that it was due to the color scheme of the comic and not because they were literally pink. I'm pretty sure they were meant to be contacts, because their hair is and always have been dyed rather than anime-esque natural colorful hair, so that was some crazy dedication from Boo back in the day.
Tumblr media
More 2011 art showing off Mimi's goth/scene-ish style and green eyes. They were initially meant to have pastel and neon fashion senses, respectively. The story was already named at this point, only a few days or maybe weeks into its inception, which is impressive considering it has taken us literal years to name other stories (I'm looking at you, Phantom Pains)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this one is from super early 2012! Interesting to think that this was less than 9 months later since it feels completely different to me. The first version of the comic had started at this point, and the pink and green color scheme was just starting to develop. This lineup features some characters that would later be cut. Lucian and Lily were friends of Boo, and Cecilia was Mimi's ex girlfriend. Notably Clarice is not on this lineup, and frankly I'm not sure why.
Tumblr media
A picture I drew to commemorate 50 fans on RAINBOW!'s smackjeeves page, mid 2012. Boo's outfit resembled a recolored version of her 2011 outfit, but I have no idea what Mimi is wearing. What. are. you. wearing.
Tumblr media
Chibi-ish drawings of Boo and Mimi cosplaying various characters, from early 2013. Homura Mimi is very funny to me, I really don't know why I didn't draw her as Kyoko. I assume I was trying to keep them as paired characters, but I didn't do that with the Sailor Moon or Disney ones, so I who knows why I did it with PMMM. Mimi's hairstyle changes to a shaved cut somewhere around this time, but it is much more dramatic than her current undercut, and her hair is still pretty long. Boo is wearing a closet cosplay of Fluttershy that I myself wore once. These also resemble the chibi-ish drawings on the chapter intermission pages of RAINBOW! Vol 1.
Tumblr media
A character study I did in late 2013, which would be shortly after I made a major style shift into the art style that would eventually develop into the one I currently have. At this point, Boo was meant to be fatter than Mimi, but the execution wasn't really there at all. There is also a doodle at the bottom of me and Sunny at the time (I am the one with long hair), expressing thanks for 300 fans on smackjeeves. Considering it had 50 in mid 2012, the readership was pretty slow growing back then.
Tumblr media
outfit exploration for Mimi, circa 2014. At this point I started to expand the color scheme a little bit more so that not every character would be paper-white, though she is still very pale even though she is no longer meant to be white anymore. None of these outfits really resemble her current style, and I don't particularly like any of them either. It took me a very long time to settle on a fashion sense for her.
Tumblr media
an Adventure Time-eqsue drawing of Mimi and Boo that I actually drew less than two weeks after the previous image despite the difference in things such as the way the hair was drawn. I had to include this one because it blew up overnight, which was a huge deal for highschool me, I remember checking my phone at school a lot because it was just getting hundreds or even thousands of notes over the span of the day. I think it has something like 16,000 notes. Still the post with the highest number of notes I have by far, so I guess I peaked in high school, whomp whomp
Tumblr media
More fashion exploration, this time of Mimi and Boo, from early 2015. The color scheme is starting to approach what it currently is, but much more dull since I used to be afraid of bright colors. Mimi's fashion sense is starting to get closer to what it currently is, but the pastel goth influence that was popular in early-mid 2010s tumblr is apparent. In chapter 1, Boo wears an outfit that is extremely similar to the one with the bear shirt, except it's a rabbit instead. The dress that Mimi gives to Boo is also almost identical to the depiction of it here. This drawing implies that Mimi was originally going to be present in the film noir scene where Boo finds her mom, which is interesting...
Tumblr media
Another cast lineup! This one is from late 2015-early 2016. Mimi is wearing an outfit pretty similar to what she wears in chapter 1 but with the colors altered. The execution of Boo's body type is starting to improve but she's still kind of pear-shaped. Mimi is also a little more square, and her hair finally looks like the style she has now. Clarice gets to be in the lineup this time and she is SUPER tall. I think she is still taller than Milo. And Mimi is around 5'7"-5'8", so Clarice must be around 6 foot by that logic.
Tumblr media
The original version of chibi-ish Boo riding a bike in her Kiki outfit, from 2016. I think it was meant to be a banner of some kind, possibly for tapas or tumblr. A newer version of this drawing features as a chapter intermission drawing in the physical book.
Tumblr media
The original cover for RAINBOW! from 2017. The color scheme is finally starting to get a little brighter! This is actually a redraw of an older drawing from 2014, I want to draw it again someday. Also, I was going by Rain at the time.
Tumblr media
A drawing I did in late 2017 for a class in which we were meant to try digital painting and I went for a very simple approach. I like that Mimi's legs are a little noodle-y. This is also the first drawing where Mimi's eyes are no longer green, but dark pink instead. By the language of RAINBOW!'s color scheme, that means they are brown. Boo's eyes are still pink, however.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another drawing for a class, this time from 2018. I can't remember the specifics of the assignment, but I used the opportunity to draw the playground and Max, the dog, for the first time. I like the way the trees look in this. That little snip of hair by Mimi's ear also made a reappearance here for some reason.
Tumblr media
The original version of the drawing that would become the cover of RAINBOW! Vol 1, from mid 2019! I believe I drew it to be a banner on Tapas, but I used it for tumblr as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And lastly, Boo and Mimi outfit sheets from 2019-2020. I messed with them for a while, hence the timeframe. Boo's eyes are finally green, which I changed since I liked the idea of Mimi having green hair and pink eyes, and Boo having pink hair and green eyes, as if they are reflected a bit in each other. Outside of RAINBOW!'s color scheme, Boo's eyes are actually blue though. It took about a decade, but I finally settled on a fashion sense for Mimi.
BONUS ART!!! 💖💖✨✨ I thought these would be better grouped together rather than chronologically with the rest.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
RAINBOW!'s banners from its era on smackjeeves! Smackjeeves didn't have square/circular icons but rather these thin long banners which could also be animated. I thought that was so fun, so I always animated them at least a little, even though one doesn't seem to work. It was customary to write girls love/boys love on the banner of mlm/wlw romance stories then, so almost all of them say that. I still see that trend on some comics on webtoon and tapas nowadays. They are from 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2017. I don't believe the 2017 one was ever used.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And RAINBOW!'s icon throughout the years! I always refused to change it, only update it, because I thought it was really cute. They are from (approximately) 2017, 2018, 2020, and 2021.
Tumblr media
And finally, art from 2021 of Mimi with her cousin August, who will be the protagonist of our next comic, Phantom Pains. Weird to think that we'll be on that comic in foreseeable future, since it is also over 10 years old now. Bit of a passing the torch type drawing to end on. 💕 If you made it all the way here, thanks for reading! Hopefully it was fun and didn't hurt your eyes.

My eyes are shut. I am pure unconsciousness. They already cut the umbilical cord: I am unattached in the universe. I don’t think but feel the it. With my eyes I blindly seek the breast: I want thick milk. No one taught me to want. But I already want. I’m lying with my eyes open looking at the ceiling. Inside is the darkness. An I that pulses already forms. There are sunflowers. There is tall wheat. I is.
I hear the hollow boom of time. It’s the world deafly forming. If I can hear that is because I exist before the formation of time. “I am” is the world. World without time. My consciousness now is light and it is air. Air has neither place nor time. Air is the non-place where everything will exist. What I am writing is the music of the air. The formation of the world. Slowly what will be approaches. What will be already is. The future is ahead and behind and to either side. The future is what always existed and always will exist. Even if Time is abolished? What I’m writing to you is not for reading— it’s for being. The trumpets of the angel-beings echo in the without time. The first flower is born in the air. The ground that is earth forms. The rest is air and the rest is slow fire in perpetual mutation. Does the word “perpetual” not exist because time does not exist? But the boom exists. And this existence of mine starts to exist. Is that time starting?
It suddenly occurred to me that you don’t need order to live. There is no pattern to follow and the pattern itself doesn’t even exist: I am born.
I’m still not ready to talk about “he” or “she.” I demonstrate “that.” That is universal law. Birth and death. Birth. Death. Birth and—like a breathing of the world.
I am pure it that was pulsing rhythmically. But I can feel that soon I shall be ready to talk about he or she. I’m not promising you a story here. But there’s it. Bearable? It is soft and is oyster and is placenta. I am not joking because I am not a synonym—I am the name itself. There is a thread of steel going through all that I am writing you. There’s the future. Which is today.
My vast night goes by in the primary of a latency. The hand touches the earth and listens hotly to a heart pulsing. I see the great white slug with a woman’s breasts: is that a human entity? I burn it in an inquisitorial bonfire. I have the mysticism of the darkness of a remote past. And I emerge from these victims’ tortures with the indescribable mark that symbolizes life. Elemental creatures, dwarves, gnomes, goblins and sprites surround me. I sacrifice animals to collect the blood I need for my witching ceremonies. In my fury I offer up my soul in its own blackness. The mass frightens me—me who carries it out. And the clouded mind dominates matter. The beast bares its teeth and in the distance of the air gallop the horses of the carnival floats.
In my night I idolise the secret meaning of the world. Mouth and tongue. And a horse free with loosed strength. I keep its hoof in amorous fetishism. In my deep night a mad wind blows that brings me scraps of screams.
1973. Água Viva, Clarice Lispector, tr. Tobler. pub. New Directions

Hi Dear 🤗 so I was talking with my friend who is a big fan of the book Hannibal! But ahe also loves the show equally . We were sharing our headcanons and I asked her what she thinks the continued seasons will look like then she pointed out that after s3 ended Bryan used to say that S4 could contain something "from novel *Hannibal* that has not been done in any of the adaptations" and when I asked her what she thinks as she has read the books , she told me about the brainwashing part where Hannibal brainwashes Clarice. Do you think Hannibal can do that to Will ? Personally I would not like that.
I think he already did that in s1, in a way, I think that was their version of this! It wouldn't be as unexpected if they just did that again, yk? I don't think Bryan likes to be repetitive, also. He was very fast paced and surprising when it came to the plot of each season. It's actually really funny to read old reddit threads from the time the show was on, cause people didn't predict anything at all, they were constantly wrong about the direction it would take haha.
I'm not sure, at all, what that would be, unfortunately. There's a lot of things that haven't been adapted yet so, I have no clue, if anyone has ideas, let us know!

continued from here. @unwrittenxrp
Clarice listened to his story, intent and uninterrupting. She couldn’t sense  any   lies, though  Ethan was probably too tired to do so anyways. She hummed at the mention of the bar, a place she had frequented more than once. If Ethan’s friend was who she thought it was, then Clarice knew his words to be true. She smiled. “I don’t mind  the company, it can get so lonely here, being the only special person  as you so delicately put it.’’ She breathed. “I’m going to fix you a  place to sleep, there’s  no way I’m letting you  out in this blizzard again.’’
