Description
-cue reactions of alarm and a heart attack or two from the people who have been with me since the last time I drew these two-So this happened today, thanks to an incredible display of hivemind powers that I don't think any of the people involved knew they were utilizing.
Edgar and Nny in their original form belong to Jhonen Vasquez, I have tormented and modified them slightly for SWAN-verse , which is what you see before you.
I can say for certain that I don't miss fussing with that disclaimer, as much as I suddenly miss the pair involved.

Damn I love this... Geeeeez I think this may be the pic that finally gets me to really love this pairing, FFFF... AUGH, Johnny/Older!Todd used to be such an adamant OTP of mine, but then my friend went and made me fall in love with Todd/Gaz and now my OTP is getting fractured all over the place!
I find stuff like this makes me not mind so much, though. XD! This pic makes me think of a scenario where Johnny feels so bad after what he did to Edgar that he pieced him back up together again... Admittedly the fact that Johnny killed Edgar always turned me off before even though I loved Edgar's character, but the idea that this invokes makes me kind of like it despite that...

Haha, I think it may be my job to make people like pairings like this! More love for all, I say!
I'm so pleased that you like this, thank you! There's a whole crew of us who are interested in the Johnny/Edgar dynamic, with and without him being stitched back together! If you ever get interested, there may be some other remnants of us around!

XD Nah, I'm just super-easy to corrupt at long as the pairing makes decent sense or has goodfic or goodart. XD;; But you're quite welcome all the same! I must say, Older!Todd/Johnny is still my personal favorite, but I've definitely added a few Johnny/Edgar pieces to my favorites too. ^^

Wow! It's been ages since I've seen NnEdgar art, I forgot how much I missed it.

LYX USED NOSTALGIA
IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE
fff I wish I had time right now to go back and reread ISH, I think that would make for an amazing night. at least I have something to look forward to for my weekend, when I get to it

Hahahhahaaa,I'm getting everyone
I had to spend most of this week rereading it after work to see what the hell I was even going to write to finish it! I had a really good time, even if I wanted to go back in time and stab myself in the face a few times. I hope you re-enjoy if you get around to it!

I'm hoping a reread will help jog my own creative um uh juices I guess even though that's like the grossest phrase ever, because to be honest I miss writing those boys too! they're so weirdly entertaining. and... entertainingly weird?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, the 'I wish to partake of your juices' that was nearly my whole reply to you is the grossest phrase ever, but yes.
Weirdly entertaining and entertainingly weird is the most appropriate description of them. I didn't really notice I missed them until a few days ago, and now that I've got them around, my old fondness has flared up ridiculously. Feels like visiting old friends.
Old friends who are terrible, bitter, angry, fucked up people.

Ok, so, random question here, is ISH 11 the last ISH? Cause i just recently started reading SWAN/ISH about three weeks ago and just finished ISH 11 and was just kind of curious.... Amazing picture, by the way
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's not! I'm working on the next, and last, one as I type this! It's been a very, very long time since I felt okay enough to do this, and I'm sort of shakily getting back into the swing of it, but I'll be finishing it soon!
Thank you!

Trust me when I say "take your time," as I've rushed to finished something and been horribly resentful with myself at the results...but also trust me when I say that, when you do finish and post ISH 12, you will be making a bunch of people VERY VERY HAPPY.
Just like you did when you uploaded these doodles. SCORE.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, Oh, I'm taking my time all right. It more resembles taking my time now, rather than just 'not doing', at least.
I'm so glad to hear that some people will still be happy to see it. I know I've probably lost a lot of people to wandering off and such, and I really don't blame them, considering how long it was since my last update.

It's a great illusion!
I think anybody who's been reading since before-the-end-of-SWAN is too invested to quit now. Even though the events in ISH are a jump (that is, SWAN can stand by itself), it's still characters in your portrayal that we care about.
That said, some people might be a bit slow to find it. I first read SWAN on an old website that only had the first half posted, but when I finally saw the little "go HERE goodness sakes" link, you had posted all the way up to the twentilogue. I WAS THRILLED.

Haha, SWAN had a rough hosting history, I'm lucky anyone ever found it! First it was only on Cherry Doom, then it was hosted at Zarla's place for a while, then I had it on Geocities, and THEN it made it to my website and FFN.

Oh, is it nice to see these guys again
It's interesting to see how much your style has changed since you drew them last. Wow, time.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sometimes, I use Johnny and Edgar to gauge how much I've learned over a given period of time, art-wise. True story.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Ohh gosh, I love it! The texture you added really adds to the piece, and that red on Edgar's glasses!!! Really cool...
It makes me so happy to see you drawing these two again. You really do it best!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww, what a nice thing to say! They won't be back with any of the ferocity they once were, but I'll try to keep things a bit more balanced and have them around at least pseudo regularly now. We'll see how it pans out!

Downright sinister is what this is. In any case, I approve powerfully of your colour choice. I can't remember you using bright red quite like that before, and it makes for a striking image. (Also a surprisingly sinister highlight to Edgar's glasses.)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That kind and that amount of red IS pretty unusual for me, now that I'm looking at it. I really enjoyed the look of it. Something strange for my strange Homicides boys, maybe.

Ffffyes. I come to Wi-Fi from internetless land and Dial Up connection with a throbbing headache and a severe irritation with a younger cousin, and the first thing I see when I log on to DA is these two, who I have missed so much.
Brightened my day like a goddamn flare light, I swear. Thank you.

Well I'm glad to hear it! This seems to have been a well-timed Edgar and Nny for everyone!

If all this leads to a resurection, I will cry with happiness. This fandom needs brains like a starving zombie.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It'd be nice if the fandom picked up again someday. I'll never be able to be as involved with it as I once was, but I'd like to see it still kicking.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I imagine you can only run with it like that once, yes. It would be great to see the comic promoted somewhere, maybe fresh blood would kick things off again.

Ahaaa this hivemind thing is too weird. I just posted my nostalgia-induced piece yesterday and now I wake up to this beauty.
Alright. Now that I've finished freaking out, I can say it's cool to see these guys from you again! So much nostalgia aaah. Also the textures you got going on here are neat.
I'm going to have to reread SWAN/ISH now. That's it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really? Seriously, I think it must be contagious. I had no fewer than four SWAN-related posts and people crop up and post/talk to me in just as many days. If you were doing it too, clearly some sort of planetary alignment was in order and "Nny/Edgar" crossed the minds of everyone involved, even fleetingly, this week. This is the only explanation, for srs.
For real though, I'm glad to see others on the nostalgia train!
Haha, well I hope you enjoy it all if you do read it. You could still hold out until I get the last ISH up, if you need excuses or something, haha.

and I have also been caught and Smiley was right-- this is creepy, not coincidental.

Okay, for serious? Shit is wack, yo. I keep wanting to say there's something in the water, but I think it's more like 'Something's in the tubes.'

Yey! I haven't seen those two in a long time! Amazing work as always M'lady ^^

*I* haven't seen them in a long time! I'm as surprised to see them as you are!
Thanks!

!!! Wow, I didn't expect to see these two at all. It's a nice surprise at 12 in the morning, I gotta say.
Is that title from a particular song?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahhaa, it's definitely from Lady Gaga's "Government Hooker," because I'm a winner.

I know you're not the biggest fan of drawing these two anymore but I'm so happy to see you tossing them up again. XD You do some of my favorite art of these two.
Also, visible cheek boooone. <3

I'm happy someone is still around who likes to see me draw them~!
They're still dear to me in their own fucked up way, and I think I'm far enough from everything now that I feel much better about them. Maybe they'll be cropping up here now more often.
