Sketching How I Envisioned Detective Noel - He Seems Really Cool And Im Excited To Learn More About Him.

[ID copied from alt: A digital painting of Parker from the chin down. He is standing in front of a bathroom mirror with one hand on the sink and holding a razor in the other. Shaving supplies are piled along the back of the sink. In the background of the mirror is a doorway, and through that we can see Arthur sitting at his piano, staring distractedly at Parker with a blush on his cheeks.]

This was inspired by a discussion in the Dreamlands server of Parker being Arthur’s gay awakening as they shared that tiny apartment.

[ID copied from ALT: a digital illustration of Arthur and John from part 43. Arthur is slumped again a stone wall, blood coming from his stomach wound and mouth. John is a shadow over his shoulder, angrily looking at someone offscreen. a partial crown has grown from his head. he holds his hand near Arthur's wound, trying and failing to stop the blood

2: a loose sketch showing John from part 43. John, shadowy but taking on more of his king aspects, takes on a pleading position over Arthur's unconscious body as he says 'ok wait hold on hear me out' to the witch, who stands mostly offscreen but holds a sharp dagger covered in bugs in full view.

3: a furious John manifests and erupts from Arthur's chest. he is large and monstrous, his masked face lifting to roar at the witch, showing off teeth and three tongues. Arthur's eyes are fully golden and tearful. threads still surround Arthur and John. the witch, an older women dressed in furs and a tattered dress, holds a bloody knife and looks up at John unimpressed.

4: a sketch of Arthur coming back to life. his back arches painfully off of a stone table as his eyes snap open, and he releases a long scream into the dark room. End ID.]

Arthur: I have decided to finally trust you with my life's greatest secret and guilt, and in my vulnerability, you have seen me and understood me. Thank you for being kind to me in my moment of need. I have never called you friend before and so I shall do so now. I trust you, my friend.

John: Cringe. Ratio. Plus beating you to death beating you to death beating you to death beating you to d

[VD: A small roughly animated gif of Arthur Lester, initially neutral and standing. John's hand then reaches for his face and abruptly grabs him by the cheeks, pulling him forward, and then pressing his palm against Arthur's lips in a kiss. A little heart fizzles above the kiss. As John starts to pull his hand away, Arthur catches it and holds it closer to his face. Another heart fizzles above the kiss as John's fingers press into Arthur's cheek. Arthur is drawn in blue lineart with gold eyes, and John is drawn with black lineart to distinguish the two. End ID.]
