Dropping the latest Sketch-a-Wish, voted on by my lovely Patreon members for January! Featuring a tense scene from Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo!
Spoilers for Hell Bent below!
This is one of the few examples of me putting in the WORK for the background, only because it's such a character itself. Il Bastone is a real world setting from Ninth House / Hell Bent, and even though they are scant, there were luckily a few interior photos available for me to reference to create the Virgil bedroom, where Alex and Darlington are having a tense conversation in this scene. I took some liberties on the design but a lot of the structures, accents and patterns were either pulled from the interiors or exterior facade of the Anderson Mansion. (especially the stained glass windows and painted tile fireplace!).
I spent a ridiculous amount of time on the painting over the fireplace to capture a small world-building segment from Hell Bent that I think has a modest symbolism of Alex's and Darlington's new relationship here. A fun little puzzle for those who want to try to research it!

um. hell bent (ninth house sequel) spoilers ahead.
darlington has implied anger issues, alcohol problems, a dirty mind, insatiable curiosity, a hyperfixation on the arcane, he's a murderer and he doesn't regret it - he's basically always sinned. he's always been a little bad.
it's not that only now that he's part-demon he has to wrestle with this ominous darker being that's lurking inside him. it's always been a part of him (part of every human being i'd like to argue), he's just been able to shut it out, control it better, compartmentalize (as one does), and now he has no choice but to let it free, free himself from his own inhibitions
But as he was not quite human any longer, he supposed a more flexible approach to morality was called for.
he's intelligent enough to realize he basically has to learn to deal with the fact that he's now powerless to the urges of his own demons, pun intended
this is what i want to see in a future book, not him struggling to hold back or trying to school himself into an image of goodness and perfection, because he's always done that! i want him to let go, absolutely lose it and be unapologetically unhinged and sinister, kind of like how alex is but worse

drew a Good Hand and decided to redraw that one thing i did for the msa prompts. its one of my favorite drawings from that thing. it lacks detail or elements, but the meaning i kind of put behind it and the fact its like. the climax of hellbent or maybe the whole series is just real cool. the difference from now and a year ago before is nice to look at!
version without cheap ass motion blur plus the original for comparison
its CRUSTY

“What if I told you that some part of me still hungers after suffering?”
Alex didn’t flinch. Of course she didn’t. It wasn’t in her repertoire.
“I’d tell you to keep your shit together, Darlington. We all want things we shouldn’t.”
-Leigh Bardugo, Hell Bent
#q#hell bent#hellbent#leigh bardugo#alex stern#darlington#THIS WHOLE SCENE#darlingstern stans screeching WANT THINGS WE SHOULDN'T?? ALEX? ALEX! in the distance#(it's me. I'm the one screeching)#(But I also just love this response to him admitting he learned to crave suffering in hell)#alex all unimpressed like 'well you and half the professors on campus - no other explanation for having to read foucault'#get your shit together and bury it like the rest of us darlington#god I love her so much#she's the best person to tell not because she's morally gray and doesn't regret killing assholes but bc she's spent her life around drugs

Her eyes were dark and full of stars.
A bit of Darlingstern from Ninth House to change things up 🖤

no because i literally love darlingstern so much it makes me SO giddy to know that alex predominantly takes the role of darlington's knight in shining armor, to know that SHE is the soldier and HE is the prince
that SHE is HIS savior
like thats so sexy and tasty and like my FAVORITE flip of traditional gender roles, which is something im not surprised of from leigh bardugo, but like GOD its SO good this time around
like its nothing new for her really but like. DARLINGSTERN IS CRACK TO ME IDK WHAT SHE PUT IN THEM BUT OHHHH MY GODDDDD
