Description Another Illustration from the fanfic entitled 'Flawed' by [link]

The fic remains unfinished but her is and exerpt to quench your taste buds...

“Kid, you okay?” He actually looks worried. I slowly put my legs back down and start to put my seat belt on. My hands shaking, I remain silent, until Logan talks to me, again. “When we get back to the mansion, I’m taking you to see Hank.”

“I’m fine, I don’ need to see’im!” I protest. But already I can see that it is on deaf ears, as Logan starts up the Jeep and pulls out of the bar’s parking lot.

“You broke into a sweat when I placed you in the Jeep and started muttering not to hurt you.” He looks over at me for a moment, and then turns his eyes towards the road. “I can smell a fever on you, and I can hear how you struggle to breathe at times, Cajun. You’re going to see Hank if you like it or not!”

“I don’ deserve to be looked at by him…” I frown, wrapping my arms around my waist. Hank was part of the trial in Antarctica. I doubt he knew I was left behind to die until I showed up at the X-Men’s doorstep again. Came back like a bad penny I suppose. “I don’ deserve your help, either! I’m a traitor and a murderer, remember? I deserve everyt’ing I get!”

I deserve to be hurt, molested, raped, tortured, and left to die. I deserve to be hated, shunned, and spat upon. I am no good, never was and never will be. I can feel tears coming to my eyes as I place my hands on my head. Why can’t I forget? Why can’t I forget my childhood, the Morlocks, my failures? Why!?

“No, you don’t!” When I look back over at Logan, his eyes are narrowed, and he was gritting his teeth. “I’m tired of this. Some of the others have this “holier than thou” complex around here. Everyone’s made a bad mistake, Remy. You’re no exception, and they aren’t either! Warren joined Apocalypse at one point, Rogue was a terrorist, and I was some killing machine.”

Part of me wants to believe him, but I know the truth by now. I am always going to be the exception to the rule. It has always been that way and I have accepted that. I look out the Jeep window, seeing we have come to a stop at a red light. Logan turns his head to look back at me.

“We’ve become a bunch of hypocrites over time, Cajun. The thing is no one wants to admit it. Guess I’ll be the first.” I watch as he sighs, shaking his head. “I don’t get it. You’ve proven yourself time after time, and no one gives you any credit. They only see the flaws, never the good stuff.”

Major intensity, I love it. Also many kudos to the uber-perspective of Logan's massive hand. XD It amuses me greatly though I do not know why.

Damn, you're good. As always. Love the perspective - it's very much like looking in through a movie screen. Great foreshortening going on, not to mention the expressions. Best work, I have to say though, is in the shadows and highlighting - car interiors can be super hard, especially night time scenarios, and you've captured that perfectly. High five!

*Pounces on Ludi* You keep popping up and then disappearing for aaages! You're a tease!

Thanks as ever for the comments of encouragement, Im relativeely happy with how this came out - I think the car interior etc could have been a hell of a lot better but I just wanted to get it done so I stuck to the rough look on purpose!

Ludi, you must spend more time on DA, are you still in Japan? I hope everything is going well for you!

LOL. Yes, I am much of a lurker these days, mostly because I'm hella busy and not drawing or writing very much. It SUX!!!
No, not in Japan anymore. It's confusing but while I was out there the company I was working for went bust and living on private students just didn't cut it. So I'm back in England now playing the teaching assistant. Yay...

LUDI!!! *tackles and pounces* How have you been!? I'm so sorry about your job going bust... I read about that online in a Japanese Newspaper that some companies who taught foreign languages were just dying out. But welcome back to good ol' England... and congrats on the Teaching job there!

Well, I was pretty much out of there before the big crash, and was planning to survive on private students, but it didn't really work out, and I couldn't renew my work visa without having a company sponsor me. So I rode out the visa and left on the last day possible. LOLS. It was an awesome experience though. Lots of lows, but more ups than downs and I wouldn't have traded it in for the world. Thanks for the best wishes hon.
