Description Reian (left) and Nelius (right) from my novel The Wind & the Foxes, which I am nearing the end of. Hopefully it won't take me too much longer to finish writing it!

This picture is set after the end of the novel. These two meet during the course of the story. They will eventually end up married, but that happens later and isn't part of the narrative. Their culture does allow same-sex marriages in some cases, but I won't try to explain the cultural stuff here. Marriage is an entirely different issue among their people, though.

Hmm, I don't think this needs to be marked as mature--they're just doing some shirtless cuddling.

I am a fan of cuddles.

And it does happen sometimes, believe it or not!

Thank you.

So full of feelings and touching รฉ_รจ I love the soft smiles, the happiness, and the warmth you can feel in their touches Their faces look so gentle and expressive รงwรง
Besides, they're two of my favourite character of yours which makes me like this even more!!

Awwwwwwwww, MARRIED, HUH? I approve of this direction for the narrative! ;3

Poor, scarred Nelly, though..... *sniff* So good that he finally finds love!

foxysquid In reply to AliWildgoose [2008-11-16 17:23:53 +0000 UTC]

Yes! Not that this actually takes place in the narrative, but in my mind, it's what happens afterward. There's a particular kind of marriage that applies in this case (hence my essay about Kelisavian gender and marriage customs). Maybe I'll write some short stories about that time period someday! I don't know if you read my post about it in LJ, but Nelius has wives, too. (Men with an inherited gift like sorcery are permitted to have up to four wives. Reian only wants Nelius and Pasha, though. And Imbri, ha ha ha ha.)

Not that any of this is relevant to the plot at all!

Aww, I'm glad you like the sweet cuddles! I'm very sweet on these two myself, as you know.

I'm still tempted to write a series of short stories set in their world after I finish the novel.

This picture just has such a wonderful mood, it's really tender and heartwarming. Just like every shirtless cuddle should be! Their expressions are just perfect, too.

And you never cease to amaze me with your productivity, making great pieces like this almost everyday, and now you tell me you're writing a novel too? You're like some kind of creativity-superhero or something!

foxysquid In reply to ctrl-fish [2008-11-18 18:04:14 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much--I'm so glad you like the picture. I appreciate the nice feedback.

Ha ha, and I'm flattered! Writing is my main occupation, actually. I don't post any of my stories here, though, since they're intended for publication. But I do draw a lot too (obviously), and I really love doing it--it helps me relax.

AmbrMerlinus In reply to foxysquid [2008-11-15 21:38:04 +0000 UTC]

See, I'd always assumed that it would end with him dying a bloody and tragic death, what with the general theme of your works involving him. A happy ending is a nice surprise.

foxysquid In reply to AmbrMerlinus [2008-11-15 23:09:45 +0000 UTC]

Aww! Ha ha, yes, I do like to draw him bloody, but in most cases, when he gets bloody, it's someone else who's really in trouble. Not that Nelius isn't in danger at the end of the book.
