“It’s the least ridiculous hat I’ve ever been given,” Henry tells him. “It doesn’t even come with a matching tailcoat.”
“Nah, but maybe we can get you some Wranglers,” Alex says.
“Some chaps, perhaps.”
“I just told you not to talk dirty to me.”

This piece was commissioned by the generous and wonderful Jonathan L who won my contribution for the Latinx Kidlit Festival auction: a free commission of two characters! I was so happy to have an excuse to revisit Alex and Henry last month, and share the final image in time for ACD’s birthday!
This picture has some additional goodies for fans of the books—and movies. With Jonathan’s help, I’ve planted TWELVE Easter eggs in this picture; see if you can find them all!
Happy Birthday, ACD (and a happy belated birthday to HFMW)! 🎉🎂🤠
PS: This picture is protected by Nightshade, which accounts for some articulation in the close-up. Steal it for AI at your peril. 😇

2.Henry saying he is an insomniac, but sleeps like a baby whenever he is with Alex
3. Alex chasing after Henry's lips
4. Alex's surprised "are we really doing this here" face
5. Alex letting henry fiddle with his ring

It’s finals week, but I had this fanart idea in my brain that I needed to get out. I’m super stressed rn, Alex and Henry are keeping me sane �� I just keep telling myself I’m Alex and I will get through finals and I will not have a mental breakdown 🤞🏽
