Description Because has sucked me into her stories like some sort of magic, all consuming dark hole of word spells. And this is from one of my favorite stories. Again, I have a really loose representation of how the actual story went, because my mind won't allow me a single linear thought. Ughgh, I'm not making sense.

Anyways, I liked this story a lot, so I drew what my brain sort of mashed together from it. I'm going to tape the two sides of this picture together, so it's an everlasting circle of um. I don't know. Implied gay and sadistic man choking. Whatever.


I think my favorite part about this picture is Jimmy's butterscotch plaid shirt.

Thanks! Oh, it was one of my favorite stories. I'm glad you like this picture; it's one of the nicest things I think I've ever drawn. -laugh-

GOD IN HEAVEN, IF THIS ISN'T MY FAVORITE THING IN THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS.

THIS. HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS BEFOREEEE.
OH DEAR FUCK. THIS IS SO PERFECT IN EVERY WAY.
I CAN'T BREATHE, I CAN'T-- no wait. No, I can.

BUT SERIOUSLY WTFOCTOPUS, THIS IS GORGEOUS. Gorgeous concept, gorgeous rendering. YOU ARE GORGEOUS AND SO IS YOUR BRAIN. I haven't been this enthusiastic in a while; you must have magical properties. Or at least your art does.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOUR ENTHUSIASM IS UNMATCHED. HAVE A BURD.


This comment fills me with so much joy and excitement. I'm really glad you like it; haha, I was a little worried about what the general reaction would be in regard to Edgar and Jimmy, because seriously, it's become my thing of late and I think a lot of people who watch me are shippers of Edgar and Johnny. I'm glad I'm not being ostracized and pelted with mangos.


YOU ARE A SWEET PERSON, AND WE SHOULD BE FRIENDS FOR THE REST OF LIFE. Seriously, this comment is the sun in my bleak little life right now, and I just hope you know how much I totally appreciate that. -laugh-

Lazy-but-still-enthusiastic-reply-go!

Yeah, I really REALLY like Nny/Edgar, but I still like Jimmy/Edgar for the sake of nostalgia from that RP way long ago. It's just a very interesting pair. So even if it is borderlining on blasphemy in my world, I STILL LOVE THIS. THAT'S HOW GOOD YOU ARE.

LET'S BE FRIENDS. YES. FOREVER. C:

Tired-but-still.. um.. fishsticks and butterscotch... tuna... what was I talkting about? Damn I'm tired.

You make me really happy; I'll draw some Edgar/Nny for you, then. -laugh- Did you do a rp for them? If so, which one were you? Haha, that makes me so happy.

FOREVA.

YES NNY/EDGAR YES C:

I'm alwaaaays Edgar. OUR SOULS. THEY ARE CONNECTED. I love him, or at least what the fandom has made of him. ...Or at least what I have made of him. I LOVE HIM.

I'm going to draw now... XD

You should put this around a...like...snuggie, or something. Nothing reminds me of beverages waiting to be drunk like an insane man's fantasy of rape.

Wait.

hm... I'm envy for your ability to drawing natural poses: arms on a bencha and hands near Edgar's neck.

Thanks so much; this is one of the few times it looks even sort of natural, so I'm glad it works. -laugh- I usually have such a problem with stiffness, so I'm really happy that you think they look natural.

anthrop [2010-11-15 02:34:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh man. I really like what you did with this. Jimmy's posture and smug expression, Edgar's relaxed shoulders, the dramatic watercolor background, and the black and white contrasts...it's so amazing.

...Damn you for making me want to shake the ol' fandom's hand again.

Rainbow-man In reply to anthrop [2010-11-19 04:25:06 +0000 UTC]

-laugh- Thank you! I really liked drawing this. God, as much as I would like to hate Jimmy, he's so much fun to draw, the Desdemona's stories have really gotten me shipping these two. I feel like I'm cheating on Johnny. -laugh-


SHAKE THE HAND. DO IT NOW. READ SOME SWAN AND SHAKE THE HAND.

FFFFUCK.

-choking noises-

this is so amazing. Seriously. The visual irony completetly knocks me over, I mean, the split background do a fantatic job of putting sort of a metaphysical wall between them, but I'm so very impressed with the way you contrasted the IDEAS. Man. I love the circle idea.

I think it's how comfortable they look in the middle and how charged the side halves look.

Ugh. <3

good art.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

-pats you on the back-

Haha, I'm seriously happy that you like it. -laugh- I'm happy with the way it turned out, and I'm glad you got it; I was afraid you were going be like "what is this," and then punch me in the face.

Thank you-- it took forever. I'm glad Jimmy's face ended up working out, because I actually messed up his face REAL BAD when I was painting it. Real bad. I was giving him freckles, and it ended up just making him tanner. I tried to give him a few pimples, and he ended up looking like he had some sort of horrible disease. Ugh. He was supposed to be way lighter than Edgar, but they're pretty much the same. Anger.

Anyways.

Thank you.

DesdemonaKakalose In reply to Rainbow-man [2010-11-12 23:21:07 +0000 UTC]

Lol, definitly not something I would do.

<3

haha. He does look creepy, that's true. But I thought you did it all on purpose because he's always been a creepy teenager and in this story he's SUPER CREEPY AND MEGA DANGEROUS even more than usual. So, you know. Rapist face with bonus acne totally fits.

As for the skin tone, pfft, I've had that problem before. Sometimes Jimmy just wants to be Hispanic too. But you know...

Looks good to me.

Rainbow-man In reply to DesdemonaKakalose [2010-11-13 02:23:08 +0000 UTC]

-laugh- Well, I appreciate not being punched in the face, so thank you.

No-- he is supposed to be creepy, so I'm glad that was conveyed. -laugh- It's his colouring that's off. He was supposed to be paler, which was my biggest issue, because he and Edgar look like they have the same skin tone, BUT THEY DON'T. I liked the idea that you made Edgar Hispanic, which makes sense because his last name IS Vargas. Edgar is actually a hellofalot darker in this picture than I've ever coloured him before, but you can't notice because of the lack on contrast between he and Jimmy's skin. That's where I messed up, because I like his creepy face. -laugh-

Again, definitely glad you approve.

Aaaah.

Okay, so I was looking at it again and I just have to point out one more cool thing before this conversation ends.

White!Edgar's face. It is so Unnf. And with the hand he has outstretched, it's amazing. It's so ... "in my dreams you kiss me back", if that quote means anything to you.

Sorry, I just noticed that now and I had to say something.

Rainbow-man In reply to DesdemonaKakalose [2010-11-13 11:12:51 +0000 UTC]

Okay. I figured it out, because I'm in the middle of re-reading Sick right now. I feel like such a tool right now, not remembering that, because I feel like that's one of my other favorite quotes of all time.


I think it's sort of amusing, because I drew this maybe a day after I actually read the story, so the only parts that really stuck out in my mind were Jimmy's emotions and the fact that they were on a bench (I remembered more, but those were the two things that really stuck out in my mind). After re-reading Sick, I realized how much of it actually latched onto my brain and sort of made itself known; like, my consciousness had some fuzzy, vague idea about what the picture was going to be, but my subconscious latched on to a bunch of details I didn't even know it held onto and translated it into picture, like Edgar's "I still love you" sort of arm thing, or the fact that Jimmy mentions having a gun in Edgar's mouth, something I didn't realize until now.

God, that was long. Okay. Back to reading and doodling my life away.

Why is that quote so familiar to me? Shit, I have it ringing in my head like some sort of sticky bomb, what is it from? Oh, that's going to drive me crazy. It means something to me, I just don't know what. Enlighten me, user of word magic!


I'm glad you did.
