“Ah, Mr. Bouchard. So sorry to keep you waiting. Please, take a seat, and we’ll begin.”
[ID: Art of the original Elias Bouchard before his job interview. He stands in front of a wall lined with portraits of the Institute Heads, who are all smirking and all have yellow eyes looking either directly at the viewer or at Elias. Elias’ head is placed where the tenth portrait would go, and his eyes are the same yellow as the ones in the portraits. He turns to where an opened door casts light into him. The only colors used are green and yellow, with yellow for the light and the eyes and green for everything else. End ID]
I drew an angsty thing for the last day of @lonelyeyesweek I like thinking about Elias being sad about Peter dying knowing full well he let it happen for his own benefit. And he would do it again. Also I couldn’t decide which colors I liked better.
Also here are the lines by themselves so you can see the glory that is Peter’s hair
HAH I have no idea if you're still in the mood for art requests but could I humbly ask for;;;; som Peter;;;;;;; literally just Him he doesn't even have to do anything I just love him and your design sjcnjdnfn
Jonathan Sims, Head Weirdguy of the Magnus Institute
[Image ID: A digital drawing of Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives. He has short dark hair streaked with gray, and medium dark brown skin. He is wearing a white collared shirt, green vest, and square glasses. He is shown from the shoulders up facing the viewer, and is holding a sheet of white paper and speaking into a tape recorder with a serious expression. Eyes peek out from behind peeling, off-white wallpaper. /.End ID]
[ID: jonah magnus from the magnus archives. Jonah is a white thin man with light blonde hair styled in short waves. One of his eyes is green and the other is obscured in shadows but gleaming red. He is wearing Victorian clothing —an olive jacked with a brown vest and white shirt underneath. He has a black bowtie and brown gloves. He is smiling with one hand raised elegantly towards his face. Behind him is the transgender pride flag, and he has black accent lines around his head.]
my mental image of peter is just. the most generic stock photo businessman imaginable. a billboard looking man. you expect him to start selling you insurance almost before you see him
EXCEPT
he’s always wearing a stupid captain’s hat and never takes it off. the privileges of an audial medium means that you cant prove he ISN’T constantly wearing a stupid hat whenever he shows up.
alternatively, if you wanted a higher ratio of Sea Captain vs Trust Fund Beneficiary, heres a version with a beard:
*hot n cold by katy perry plays omniously in the far distance*
imagine peter trying to do his job and elias just hopping on the telescope’s channel and complaining about jon in like s1
also like the lonely and the beholding are quite intertwined (esp with all the different marriages between peter and elias). so i wanted to incorporate that into the anker on peter’s hat
There, within the thing that pretends to be a cabin, is the one you love. You hold each other, whisper words of reassurance, but the place knows this comfort to be a lie, and laces upon it instead the awful fear of losing what you have.
