Description
Disclaimer: Saiunkoku Monogatari and its characters belong to Sai Yukino and Kairi Yura.Materials: Watercolour pencils and pigment-ink pen.
This was drawn specially for 's "Springtime" contest ...[link]
I was so excited to find appropriate flowers for each character - even a green and brown orchid to match Ensei's outfit! It would be a pity not to display the reference photographs for the flowers ...
... so, FOUR "supporting" deviations!
Each chibi is shown with his/her flower reference and costume reference.
Group 1: Kocho, Shurei and Ryuren Group 2: Seiran and Ensei
Group 3: Reishin, Kijin and Shoka Group 4: Koyu, Shuei and Ryuki
The chibi poses are referenced from the cherubs in Disney's Pastoral.
Example/screenshot of cherubs ... [link]
The sakura was cropped from this watercolour painting ... [link]

This is so cute!! ^__^ The reason I originally clicked on it was because I wanted to know why Ryuuren was naked... Now I know! And it's still soooooo cute!!

...I love that Shuei is wearing an iris. And Koyu! So cute! I want to count away all of his flowers, as well... is Shuei deflowering Koyu again? lmao
I love how Ryuren wears his flower <3
And Shoka looks like he's wearing a toga XD
Also, Seiran flipping off Ensei =

for mentioning Shuei's iris!
unfortunately, for the purpose of this pic, Koyu can't do the same ...
heyyyyy ... I like your
"count away all of his flowers"
I can just hear it ...
Shuei whispering "let me count away your flowers" to Koyu ...
Shuei deflowering Koyu ...
That's a good one!
But surely you hurt Shuei's pride
he wouldn't want or need Ryuki's help to do it!
I thought that (sticking all manners of things in his hair) 
So happy you like!
ahhhhh ... Shoka ...
I just couldn't bring myself to draw him naked!
Couldn't see him in a frilly type of flower either.
Got too much respect for that man
Seiran flipping off Ensei just seemed like the right thing, somehow
Thanks for the

Continuing previous conversation, from somewhere or other
About that chrysanthemum ...
was tellin my sis about it, and saying maybe soon I will see that term floating around in dA Yaoi-speak, then I would know the source was none other than you!
Then I had an idea!
If you're really gonna introduce chrysanthemum ...
why not do it in a Shuei/Koyu fic?!
hey, afterall, the man ( that Bottom?

OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD! I have been invited by the goddess of Shuei/Koyu yaoi to write one?!?!
Ahem.
How could I not make mention of Shuei's iris? I am totally stuck on your nickname for our babies! And it is indeed unfortunate that you couldn't have Koyu wearing one as well.
Oh, I wanna hear Shuei say it now!
Psh. Ryuki might get invited to watch but Shuei is definately not lacking in the sexing-people-up department lmao
Of course I love that touch with Ryuren! It is totally him! <3
Shoka looks positively regal like that and I applaud you.
In the manga, when we first meet Ensei, he and Seiren nearly have a knock-down, drag-out fight. This was an incredibly approriate touch! <3
And of course I faved it!

So! Back to where this message began:
OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD! I have been invited by the goddess of Shuei/Koyu yaoi to write one?!?!
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I WANNA! But I'm scared. I'm scared I won't do them justice.

We have a saying in my Chinese dialect,
tree no birds, sparrow becomes king
Since it appears that I'm the only one posting Shuei/Koyu Yaoi here in dA ...
.
GOD I AM!
Go forth, child!
Spread the word!

I really want to try it, but I am really scared I won't do it as well as you do... And I hate to rival perfection while I'm at it lol
I mean, I never considered reading fanfics for this story until I happened upon yours. And I don't read anyone else's. I'm either going to suck at this or imitate you...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL, do not stress, do not stress ...
pfff ... wut perfection? Never mind, shall not go into that ...
It's just that I thought your fanfics (being more truly 18+ than mine will ever be) would be a better vehicle for anatomical references like chrysanthemum!
"I release you!"
If you are a LOTR fan you would recognize this quote from Gandalf.
There. It be severed.
The connection between chrysanthemum and Koyu.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You write the very best Shuei/Koyu that I can imagine. Hence, perfection.
...Wait. You've read my fanficions?
LOTR reference for the win.
No, I can't disconnect the connection! lmao. I wanna try it.
Must see how much other people fail at this pairing before I try it myself.

Yes, I did, some time ago
that's how I know they're mature, haha
I don't know any of the fandoms you wrote in though

...Except Brotherhood
I'm eclectic, lmao. I read/watch a lot of things. Shounenen, Shojou, Yaoi... There's more on my fanfiction.net profile [link] . Some of it is definitely horrible >.<

This message says "6 minutes ago" ...
so is this after you've read my comment on your FMA fanfic ("1 hour ago")?
If not, it's kinda creepy -- how did you know I know the FMA fandom?

I am carefully crafting a reply after being speechless with geek joy for half an hour over the in-depth review you gave.
I'm not stalking you, I promise lmao
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no, no, didn't think you were ...
Not stalker-creepy, but creepy as in too much of a coincidence, that kind.

It's madness
I didn't mean to creep you out. Sorry
