have you ever thought about house swap aus? gideon and harrow in third, ianthe and corona in ninth, or etc. could be a drawing request for your take on this or just an ask :3
I can only see harrow working in a rigorous 6th environment and I love the idea of Gideon and harrow working like Pal and Cam.
Harrowhark being interested in Antiquities and lyctors of old. An Abigal Palamades hybrid. And Gideon learning the rapier to be Harrows Cav but choosing to spend most of the time with the longsword.
I also think Jeanmarie and Issac being from the 9th house is interesting with their paranoia machine running.
I have NO IDEA where anyone else would fit, maybe Corona and Ianthe being 7th? Judith and Marta being 8??
naberius in a silly hat... that s it
Babs? who cares about Babs!
ianthe as one of 8th siphoners... with her personal batteries corona and babs
ooooh I really like that switch, I dont think that Ianthe would be able to hurt Corona like that honestly. but the way she uses babs fits beautifully
I also think that if they were raised on the 8th there wouldn’t be the same pressure to have the matched set so maybe Corona would act more like a delegate of the 8th? instead of having to pretend to be a necromancer.
Alecto and John in a modern AU?
I struggle to think of a modern AU of them but i do love to think of them in a universe that was kinder
Your house swap AU is rad I kinda see the sixth house in the second. They’ve already got that military efficiency and dedication
IM OBsessed with that!!! their flavor of crazy efficiency with the timers constantly going off. like mom on disney vacation timetable crazy

Um if youre still taking requests : Wake ..? Or Pyrrhawake !
“Anyone who spaded your mum would brag about it.”
if you're still taking drawing requests... alecto doing something nona-ish maybe?? (i firmly believe she's still very loving underneath all the Rage)
Puppy love was different, it just made you want to open the puppy’s lips and play with the puppy’s teeth.
Page (4/14)
I wanted to share my process for my 14 page Nona comic, This got pretty long so the rest is under the cut!
First, I start by making a script, as I’m weeding through Nona I’m drawing immediate reactions. This way I don’t have to keep track of action as well as dialogue. This is the most dialogue heavy page of the comic so this one has the most detailed panel break ups.
In this scene Alecto’s inner thoughts are my favorite part so I dedicated a lot of time figuring how to add them naturally. I especially love “The old man, Crux—the child Crux, barely one hundred years old”
Once I have a rough, and I mean ROUGH thumbnail for the page I move on to creating a digital sketch.
Side note, you’ll notice I go back and forth from traditional to digital back to traditional. Having to fully redraw poses multiple times makes me really think about the action and what I want to include.
Thumbnailing is for figuring out panels. Sketching is for action and dialogue. I tend to show action and emotion over following all the rules of comic making. If you notice i break the 180 rule, but at the end of the day character interactions are more important to me.
I redraw the sketch on comic paper in mechanical pencil. Again I don’t trace the digital work because I want the linework to stay loose. I just focus on lineweight and contrast at this step. The dialogue is written out first then I line everything else with my felt tip pen.
I clean up the comic and replace the handwritten dialogue with a font I made out of my handwriting. This part is tedious but I really don’t know how to skip it. My handwriting is too hard to read but I also need to make sure all the dialogue fits naturally, so that means doing it twice.
My coloring process is really chaotic and can’t be summed up in screenshots.
Crazy right? I am constantly adjusting, changing, and generally making a mess and then cleaning it up when I color. Often when my colors look off to me it’s because I have a contrast problem, so I check it in greyscale.
If you want to know more I can share my brushes and techniques.
And with that I’m done! And then I move on to the next page.
your previous reply was very very interesting!! thoughts on the lyctors in the house swap au? maybe different ones are alive...?
Mercymorn being one of John’s dead kids is really appealing to me
The fuck when god doesnt put an age limit on the lyctoral trials and therefore you have to live with a 8 year old
