Description She could already hear their voices in her subconscience as her wings began to flame and fall back up to heaven - "well...was it worth it?"

With tears in her eyes, she let herself feel everything she'd felt for the past few years. Everyone warned her not to get too close to her assignment, but she never thought anything would come of caring and loving him. The first year as his guardian angel went by smoothly, as she helped him grow as a person. The next even smoother. She found herself looking forward to each day with him more and more. He had the most adorable smile, and contageous laughter. Most of all though...he was just a good person - honest and real.

She couldn't remember the exact moment when things changed...but she remembered the bitter sensation of jealousy stinging her heart as she watched him flirt and kiss other girls. Over the next two years, they fell in love, as she showed herself to him. They became best friends, and more. The friendship turned to romance. The romance turned to passion. Passion turned to lust, and lust to sin.

Their relationship became too intense...but she didn't give a fuck. It felt so fucking good. She wasn't allowed to touch him, but oh did they have some intense nights. She loved talking about the sexual "what if's..." with him. She loved masterbating in front of him too, while he jacked off. She was his angelslut...and fucking loved it.

She knew the consequences of breaking the rules and touching him, but after years of plucking feathers in frustration of cumming alone...she finally broke. It was the lust that brought her to the edge...but love is what pushed her over (or was it the other way around?) That first kiss was something God himself couldn't compare to. The rest of the night was just as perfect. She practically exploded as his fingers slipped inside of her for the first time. They had every sort of sex imaginable - slow, fast, soft, hard, loud, quiet, oral, anal...everything. One night to last forever.

So now...crying in pain as her wings began to cinder from sin, and hearing the demons come for her...her answer to the voices was...

"Yes..."

Okay...I wanted to do a lot more to this, to relate to the story, but I'm going to start designing CD covers for some local bands, and need to just get in the swing of designing more for real life and less for DA. I know it's not my usual standards! Ugh!!!


This is a gorgeous stock photo from , and it sucks I don't have the time to do more with it - maybe in the future.


Feather brush from :relique.net: (thanks for the help!)

Music listened to while designing: Magnitude9, Zerohour, In Flames, To/Die/For

Oh my God.
Reading that prose, I almost had to pull the earphones out of my ears because of the sensory overload. That was friggen *intense* If it was any longer, I'm not sure what I would have done. Holy... Thanks.. I think that I'm going to start writing again....

very nice cover... the fire wings on her are just so amazing... the colors and the strong contrast work well to achive the strong impact this has. very beautiful.

i don't realy like is the way the types are layed out, but im having a hard time figuring out what it is... i think i dont like how the gothic font looks with so much air between the letters. maybe some other font would work better. but i cant really say. sorry

Listen up. I like your work.
But this is NOT the best one. Not bad, but not the best.
I`m just saying that in this piece the wings should look more....
Darker....just darker. Make the picture darker. No glowing.

very cool (sorry, its morning, i'm more enthusiasic than i sound) the way the shadows hide everything but what you want to show, includiong part of her face, is nice. i almost think the little flame rising above her wings is distracting [shrug]
wings definetly look cool though

now you're doing cd covers? and my next project will be a random digi.... hey! no stealing or switching jobs allowed!

Wow,i'm not around for a few days,and come back to this thank you very much,this just made my day
Lovely work on the wings,and nice choice of stock,you really have an eye for those things
what really does the job is the prose,i LOVE it. i feel like it has more rythm than a poem would,that transition from good to unavoidabe bad in both feel and words... wonderful
Hehe,what i don't like is that the girl angel goes to hell,while the guy for whome and with whom she fell will go on (atleast i guess so) why do we the poor girls always have to be evil
Great work Ocean,i really love it

Very inspiring music, I must say. Which era In Flames and Mag9? (And Zero Hour)

I like how you incorporated the lack of regret (remorse?) in the face in your prose. It's quite appropriate.

culturalflux [2003-07-30 04:55:09 +0000 UTC]

Wow, that was pretty brutal and candid for a story about a fallen angel. I know there is some underlying meaning to it, but I think I'll keep my interpretation to myself. The art and the prose are both good. I'm seeing a trend in using "uncouthe" words in otherwise romantic poetry. And I can't say I don't like it.

Darkartizt [2003-07-30 04:42:07 +0000 UTC]

This is a fantastic piece. The contrast and lighting set the perfect nood for the picture as a whole. The wings fit into that mood very smoothly. Nice job piecing together these images in such a way that they seem like they SHOULD be together rather than just happening to be with each other.

GREAT manip, and you did it with such cleverness. Jellyfish tentacles? Who'd have thought??? Great, great idean and SO well executed.

The picture is powerful, but the picture + the prose together is just...wow.
I agree with ~luciddreams on the idea of a movie...at first, it reminded me a bit of City of Angels, but with a different concept...I love it.
