Media: Watercolor

Artist's notes: I read emiime's story, Asleep Since the War and was inspired to illustrate it a little. So... I hope you enjoy! Also, a Happy Thanksgiving to all Deviants and Watchers who celebrate today!
Art preview:

He sleeps fitfully, from the afternoon on, naked under the worn cotton sheets in the bed meant for two. Waiting. He never snores any more, but sometimes he snuffles into the pillow and mumbles something that might be a name.

... and Ron barely has time to register that Percy doesn't taste of tea today before his brother has his hand around Ron's prick.

	I didn't get around to reading the fic (at least not yet), but now I definitely want to. I love that picture of Ron. The faint tattoos are very nice and he looks so vulnerable and like he's had restless sleep. And then I got to the close-up and just went aæskjfasælkf!!! Almost literally too! Wow.

	Thank you so much! The tattoos are actually the brain-tentacle marks from his encounter in the Department of Mysteries. The poor baby, he's been so traumatised. pets him YAY!! ♥ I love to hear that! Keysmashes are about the best feedback to get, in my book, so yaaaay! grins Thank you, again!! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, cool! I'd completely forgotten he'd have those ashamed But points for including, for sure. :-) Glad I could make you happy then. I love to give comments that can do that, because I know how great it is to get them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hee. I think most people forget; it's very rare that I see art with the marks, so I wanted to make sure to include them. Yay! ♥ (Reply to this) (Parent)

	These are so incredibly superb! The freckles. The marks from the brains. And that gorgeous ginger hair! Fantastic! Poor Ron looks so forlorn, even in his sleep. pets him (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I hadn't read the story until I saw that you illustrated it. It's brilliant and these are just the perfect acompaniments. I love the colors, everythings so red. Like fire? :) Poor broken boys... Beautiful! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! I'm so glad that you liked them. The poor boys... I just want to tell them it'll be okay. They've got each other. Thank you again! :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Very, very nice! I loved the story and these are splendid illustrations for it... they suit that mood of poignancy perfectly. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! ♥ When I read the story, I couldn't imagine it illustrated in anything but watercolours, so I'm very pleased with how this turned out. I'd intended to do a few more panels but ended up being away from my materials yesterday so... :) Thanks again! (Reply to this) (Parent)

Oh, so cool to see the finished project! I'm so in love with these paintings, you have no idea. They capture the spirit of the fic so perfectly. I am especially grateful that you included the brain scars (you know me and my need for canon!Weasleys) and Ron looks so vulnerable in the first picture that I can't even stand it. And, gah, the second one...it's so pretty and, in context, so sad. ♥ times a million. Seriously.

	♥ Thank you so much for writing such an awesome piece that was able to inspire me to do watercolours again! ♥ ♥ ♥ They are so sweet. And so sad. I just want to reassure them both that it'll be okay. (Reply to this) (Parent)
