Description
A quick sketch with an even quicker (read: shoddier) coloring job. But I like it.Pierre Gringoire and Djali from the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Pierre was my favorite character, being that he was the only was that wasn't emo all the time everywhere. Or a dick like Phoebus. And Pierre/Djali is totally my Hunchback OTP. They were so cute together, particularly at the end.
And I loved it when Frollo was all "Pierre! Come help me save your wife!" And Pierre's all "Eh...or I could be doing other things..." Frollo: *blink, pause* "They're going to hang the goat, too." Pierre: "Then what are we waiting for!? Let's get going! Hurry! Hurry!"
So cute. ^_^ *pets them everywhere* And maybe he didn't like the goat *like that* but theirs was definitely the only true and unsullied love in that book.

Although I like the ones with drawings of the musical version of Pierre, this one is awesome because it follows the book!
Ahh, Djali looks so CUTE.

Best two characters in that entire book, by far. and I looooooove how you depicted Gringoire! I had a fan-gasm. No lie. squealing, 'aww'ing, hugging myself, kicking my feet excitedly...the whole enchilada.
Sooo glad Gringoire and Djali end up okay in the book.
Thank you for sharing!

Thank you very much. ^_^ And I agree with you on all accounts. Pierre and Djali ended up being my favorite characters by far, and I think their relationship was the most unsullied, so I was really happy with their ending. I literally cheered when they got away.
As for the others, I know Esmeralda was just being a 16 year old girl in this, but her decisions really just had me wanting to smack her for the most part. Frollo made loads of bad decisions, himself, but I actually found him to be the most sympathetic. Other than his obsession, he was a pretty decent guy. So I'm a little sad that neither of those two got the best ending, but Phoebus totally got what he deserved.

Aww Pierre/Djali is cute. He was so in love with the goat. They were cute. :3

Aww, sweet picture. I've decided to join Gringoire in prefering the goat to Esmeralda: from the book I'd say that Djali is the more intelligent of the two, and I say that as someone who likes Esmeralda.

Well, the problem with Esmeralda is that she's just a child of 16. I thought a lot of her actions were kind of dumb, but she's a teenager, and she's going to act like one.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah but... she announces her presence to the soilders sent to execute her. Because she wants to talk to her no-good boyfriend. If all teenagers acted like that the human race would have become extinct years ago.
I find the best way to think about it is to assume that her behavoir stems from being raised by a whole group of people who probably humour her, rather than a close family that would call her out when she was being stupid. Either that or she was dropped on the head.

Well, I'm not going to defend her too much. 
She was treated kind of like a princess with the thieves, though, wasn't she? I can't really remember as you only see her with them for a short time. But yeah, when everyone is always humoring you, you wouldn't have the best perception of reality.

I'm glad someone else didn't have much sympathy with her. Everyone who'd read the book told me it was really sad and beautiful, so when I got to the end I was like...

He wasn't in the Disney movie. Should I read the book to encounter said character?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes! I found it so strange when I started reading the book because I didn't recognize him, but he's one of the main characters, and you're with him for quite a while before anyone you recognize comes in. But he's great. ^_^ Flawed, as is everyone in the book, but still great.

He looks a tad dishy here. I may go and borrow it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, he's kind of a whiny, selfish coward, but I stand by my assertion that his relationship with Djali is the most pure one in the book. Pierre really grows on you, too. By the end, he was the only one I cared about having his happy ending.

As sad as it sounds....yes....you are right. Pierre and Djali was the healthiest relationship in the book. All of the relationships with Esmeralda freaked me out just a bit. Cute drawing...I love how you did his hair! Lovely work!

Have to agree with you there. Besides Quasimodo, Gringoire was my favourite character. I love your style and his expression! Oh so much love!

They were just too cute. ^_^ I had to.

Awww, they're so cute!
My goats would never let me hug them like that. Unless I had food.

This so adorable! I love it! I always thought these two were cute . . . well, ya know.
And I'm always delighted to find a fellow fan of Gringoire. He's the best character in the novel, I swear.

Thank you. ^_^ And yes, he really is.

omg, so true.

Yes, he was, but yeah, so much less so than everyone else. When he showed up, he was usually like a light in the dark, consistently amusing me and keeping my spirits up while everything else went to hell.
And he's just too adorable about Djali. <3
