Fitz + Kiss Sketch

"Not looking like that. Lord Golden is a proud and temperamental man. He would not keep such a rough-thatched servant as you show yourself now. We must make you look your part. Come here and sit down."

...

The Fool let me look at myself for a time in silence. Then he gathered my hair into his hands. I glanced up at his face in the mirror. His lower lip was caught in his teeth in an agony of indecision. Abruptly, he clacked the shears back onto the table. "No," he said emphatically. "I can't bring myself to do it."

Thoughts about time and clocks, minutes and seconds and everything that it entails... Created in Adobe Photoshop CS2 with the addtion of BeFunky filters. The original image was a fancy pocket watch which I broke and pulled apart to create what you see.

Fool's Envy

The first 3 are photos of one particular boy model heavily edited in Photoshop and BeFunky. The last one is a different model and I am honestly not sure perhaps I overdid it on the scaling... He is more monstrous rather than beautiful... but hey, here it is.

Drawing by my daughter for a friend. I edited it a bit in Photoshop. She has an Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/artistry4ce/ and apparently Tumblr too @artistryace

Malta and lord Golden, Myblack and Fitz.

I was honestly so surprised that I’ve only seen one fanart of this scene?? It feels like something that could’ve been drawn a hundred times.

I love Amber so much.

I keep thinking about how, out of all the different versions of the Fool, she’s the one who gets to be the most emotionally open: She’s young and in love with Fitz, she has literal telepathic conversations with him every day for fifteen years, she does all these “foolish” things like creating a new face for Paragon, dreaming about a child and a family with Fitz when they become older. Yeah, she only said it out loud once — when she was just happy to see an old friend — and after that, she always called Bee Fitz’s daughter. And she kept stopping herself every time she got too close to that weird line between "my dear more than friend" and "it reminds me of Molly". And through all of it, she stayed so painfully alone. It’s just… heartbreaking.

Fitz said he didn’t like her — I forget what exact word he used, but honestly, whatever it was, he could’ve said the same about the Fool in general if he wanted to. Sure, he’s the most charming person in the world, but he’s also a manipulator, if he needs to be somewhere, he’ll get there, even if it means hijacking a ship full of hostages.

/Speaking of old friends — and one more thing that absolutely broke me — the dragons, yeah, they’re total assholes, but the way the dragons of the Paragon completely ignored Amber? You were jealous, you considered her your friend, and she was your friend, bringing you silver and all… Funny how, after becoming dragons, you just forgot about her ?
