Description
† For =fictionist 's contest at [link]• Bruoder © =fictionist
• Lectica and art © *Diikae
They're both totally void of hate
But killing me just the same
The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again
And I feel this coming over like a storm again ... now
Considerately
Venomous voice tempts me
Drains me, bleeds me
Leaves me cracked and empty
Drags me down like some sweet gravity
And ... considerately killing me
Considerately killing me
- H. by Tool
The song H., to me, is a hallucination in which the singer realizes himself. I liken this song to this pair because hallucinations and self image are two things that Bruoder battles with. Also, Lectica is very serpentine in her mannerisms, moving very fluidly, very calculated, and she was thought to be a hallucination when the pair met anyhow. Not to mention she does point out horrible things to him.
So, I imagine, she brought him to DS's castle, drugged him, and his hallucinations worsen. She is telling him all these evil things, probably about how worthless and meaningless he is, maybe to try to see him attempt suicide, while he's drifting in his high state, battling between reality and fantasy.
She also, obviously, took off his collar so he can't speak to her, only listen, only do.
...I've realized I can't color for the life of me. I hate this drawing's existence with all of my being. ._. I might redo it. God, looking at it is painful. x-o

You're brilliant.
Everything about this is just....brilliant...
The composition is just....wonderful...the reflection...the candles...the cracks in the mirror, the glowing collar....the positioning and expressions...all just so well done....
beautiful in a rather dark way...
I can't believe you want to redo this XD

See, I don't mind the composition that much...it's the coloring of it that is driving me absolutely nuts. I'm glad other people like it though. xP

why do you say you cant color :/? at first it hit me that the piece is dark, colorwise, but that made me wanna look further into it, made me look at the details, from the candle to the crack in the mirrror, not everyone can capture the public like that.
I like it.

The lighting and textures are simply beautiful. I really love this picture because at first glance you don't notice everything right away, but as you look deeper more details start to pop out at you.
Great job.

It's really good but I can't see much at all ;3; stupid resolution.

Oh my god.
I'm surprised that you're not happy with this. I would shit myself if I could do something this amazing. Seriously. T___T It's so eerie and haunting- the emotion portrayed is so powerful... I really feel it

Omg, I love this. The dark eerie atmosphere of the reflection and then the brightness of the candles. Her arm slinking into the light, and the look of pain/pleasure on his face in the mirror adds the cherry on top.
Wow. Fave

That is so cool.
The whole images darkness is really interesting, I don't know about others--but I can see the image perfectly fine.
All the little details caught my eye first, namely his collar, the pill bottle, bullet hole in the glass, looooooming shadowy figure, and those candles (I realllly like the candles). Then the main part of the image--Bru looks really distraught ]: Poor boy. Defiantly seems like sometime Lectica would try to do to him. They look really wonderful.
You made this so fast from when you told me you had an idea to posting it! Thank you for entering <333

Wow I really like it, the mirror and the holes of the bullet entry in the glass. And the candles are wonderful and I like the shining on their faces, it looks so unreal. You really got a perfect atmosphere around all this hallucination thing.

mmmff. I'm at school and the computers here are made of suck. So all I can see is some candle light! D:

I don't know if I'm the only one, but I can hardly see this pic due to it's darkness. I run on a laptop with a very bright screen and I had the same problem with your previous entry.
That being said, what little I -can- see looks very good! Especially the texture.

Wow this is beautiful! I love the textures! Althought its pretty dark and to see

The texture in the glass is amazing, as is the fabric and wax on the candles. This is deliciously creepy and I love you can't really see lectica aside from her arm creeping around his neck and her reflection in the mirror, it's like she herself is a hallucination. Kudos!
