Hermione and The High Reeve just wandering about 🖤

From Manacled by @senlinyuwrites

Sketch 🥀

Me thinking about how Elle wanted Kelly to take the IV out because she just wanted to die instead over Campbell finding out that she poisoned the pumpkin pie

i stan one (1) blonde smol ballerina who just wanted to make friends and was in such a vulnerable state that she unknowingly entered into a relationship with an abusive asshole because his promise of safety and nurture was too good to pass up. 

i stan a scared and fragile girl who tried to get away, who would rather have been locked up than spend another moment putting up with the abuse. a girl who didn’t want to hurt another living being except for the person who caused her physical and mental battery and she would rather have died than purposely let innocent people suffer. she ate most of the pie that she poisoned, she got the sickest, she looked so broken and terrified when she realized they had revived her, when they had saved her life instead of letting her die. she left the comfort of helena’s house because she didn’t want campbell to hurt anyone else. 

in episode 2, she was excluded and turned away from everyone except campbell, and in episode 8 she willingly tried to save everyone at thanksgiving from herself, from the person the pie was met for: campbell

anyone who hates elle tomkins can choke. 

Elle Tomkins deadass tried to poison her abuser with antifreeze. I don’t ever want to hear anyone call her weak.

For Manacled, chapter 66 by SenLinYu

I did this without any plan whatsoever. The ‘I love you’ scene was on my list, but I had no intention of animating it. I figured out the style and look as I worked, not an ideal work flow… Also, I personally think Hermione looks like Emma Watson and that is entirely by chance. Anyways, now I want to put it aside, so here it is. 

FYI - this is a blog meant to serve as a creative outlet for me. That means I might redo and then repost stuff, post quick doodles, messy sketches, experiments and so on. It won’t necessarily be polished or finished work :)

Shiloh learns to crawl

An art commission by @kumatan0720

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Oh gosh—she's doing it! She's doing it, Draco! Come see!"

Hermione tore her eyes from Shiloh for half a second to watch as Draco came sprinting into the nursery from their little kitchen, half-washed bottles in hand, elation filling his eyes.

"She's doing it?" he echoed, his voice breathless.

Hermione nodded and turned back to their daughter. Shiloh was on her hands and knees, rocking back and forth in her blue footie pyjamas. She had been edging closer and closer to crawling with each passing day, and Hermione swore that this time Shiloh had moved one of her knees.

She had been scooting around on her tummy for several weeks, reaching for her mummy's wand or some other shiny bauble. The transition to supporting her own weight on her hands and knees was relatively new. But every time she came close and Hermione and Draco gathered around her to watch her arrive at her new milestone, she would suddenly lose interest, falling onto her bottom and looking around before declaring in a loud and confident voice, "Ba!"

What exactly she meant by, "Ba!" Hermione had no idea, but she hoped it didn't translate to, 'A watched cauldron never boils.'

But this time would be different. She was sure of it. Shiloh seemed confident, somehow. Bold. Excited. She had a glint in her eye as she stared at a plush dragon sitting on the floor nearby.

"Come on," Draco egged on in a whisper, his own eyes wide, identical to his daughter's.

Shiloh rocked back and forth again, as if she was trying to convince herself that she was ready to propel herself forward.

Draco crouched down beside Hermione, the two of them following an unspoken agreement to be silent observers from this moment. Even though Draco's soapy hands began to drip onto the rug, she said nothing, choosing to watch Shiloh instead.

One knee forward. Then an arm.

Shiloh moved forward a couple inches before collapsing onto her tummy. Hermione watched as Draco grimaced.

She no longer doubted the kind of father he was to their daughter.

Watching him watch Shiloh made her heart sing.

A shriek from Shiloh made Hermione whip her head around. She was back on her hands and knees, rocking once more. This time, her wide, gummy smile stretched across her face as she stared at the plush dragon.

One knee forward. Then an arm.

Then again. And again. And again.

She kept crawling until she was close enough to the dragon to reach out and grab it in her pudgy little fingers. And as she fell backwards onto her nappy-padded bottom with the dragon in her clutches, Hermione and Draco surged forward to scoop her up and shower her with praise.

"Well done, darling!"

"That's our girl!"

Scene from The Gift of Life, Chapter 12

I am seriously beyond elated at the lovely work that KumatanDraws has done. From Draco’s soapy hands to the determined look on Shiloh’s face, she’s captured he moment perfectly! It’s so fluffy and soft and I’m going to be staring at it for DAYS.

More Manacled liberties… You cannot convince me this did not happen once they were on that Island!

Manacled chapter 48, By SenLinYu

A WIP… I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore, lol. This isn’t even on THE LIST. I am procrastinating from my own list by doing something infinitely more slow paced.  Am I going to animate ALL of Manacled? No. But do I want to? Also no! 😅 Okay, maybe that previous animation got me in the mood to do more heavy breathing because SEXUAL TENSION. This scene is a little longer on my computer - maybe I will get to finish the second part… maybe I won’t.. Maybe I won’t even progress beyond this sketchy stage… Who knows by now? The list:

Flobberwormfarm Hermione restrained Malfoy laugh Stroud’s examination Childrens songs Rune NSFW  Raze the order Death eater catwalk Hermione in the Oxford Aurore + James Malfoy surprised, collar Malfoy Myrtle reminiscing Dancing epilogue Lucius Hermione Dancing outfits Malfoy throw wand Singing with Topsy Cranes by elf Sleeping thoughts… Hermione + book

This took FOREVER! Firstly because I thought it would just be a quick little thing, which should have been the first red flag! Then the second red flag of thinking I could just cheat my way through some tight spots… And thirdly, because my family’s summer holiday has started, which means I have about 0 time to myself, and certainly no time to do this :D Which is also why art will be slow the next few weeks. 

But here it is, with it’s flaws and all.

The Auction by @lovesbitca8 - chapter 28

“There, next to the fireplaces, Draco was draped over his mother’s shoulders in an embrace as she squeezed his waist in a vice. A valise and his coat on the floor next to him.

Hermione stared like they were a mirage in the desert that would vanish if she got too close. Her ribs felt glued together, her lungs unable to work.

Draco was home.”
