Xaden and Violet - Fourth Wing

Artist: @dudledudlesss

Dropping the latest Sketch-a-Wish voted on by my lovely Patreons for July! Fourth Wing (by @rebeccayarros) making a quick reappearance as we reset our author list for Sketch-a-Wish! This time featuring a sparring scene between Violet and Xaden as the former snatches daggers away from the latter. This was such an odd perspective angle to tackle, I was chastising Past-Rosie for considering this a good idea throughout the entire process. But we got to the end! This piece is licensed and available as a print preorder in my shop via my bio link. ✨🧡

Here’s some fourth wing art! #fourthwing

Hope is a fickle, dangerous thing. It steals your focus and aims it toward the possibilities instead of keeping it where it belongs - on the probabilities. || Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

Dropping the latest sketch-a-wish, voted on by my wonderful Patreons for May! A scene from Fourth Wing by @rebeccayarros featuring Violet, Tairn, Andarna and a blue smear in the sky named Sgaeyl & Xaden (I was tapped out of dragon juice by this point) I’m not sure if anyone here has heard of this book yet? 🤔🤔🤔 hmm…

THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS: by @chloegong

[The Love Hypothesis, by: Ali Hazelwood, aesthetic]

"carry yourself with the confidence of a mediocre white man."

"I wish you could see yourself the way I see you."

"You can fall in love: someone will catch you."

"You kiss him and next thing you know he's saving your ass and he's buying you scones and calling you a smart-ass in a weirdly affectionate tone"

"She would have loved to run to the edge of campus and scream into the void until modern civilization collapsed, but that wasn’t exactly a pressing matter."

"God, she had forced a married man, a father, to kiss her. Now people thought that he was having an affair. His wife was probably crying into her pillow. His kids would grow up with horrible daddy issues and become serial killers."

"his calm acceptance of her anxiety relaxed her"

the entirety of the biology Ph.D program watching Olive put sunscreen on Adam Carlsen's back:

He could still remember her—small in comparison to his father, exhausted and covered in ash, but thoroughly defiant, heat rippling through the air when she spoke, the stone street shivering with magic.
