Title: With the Water, We'll Start Anew
Story: A currently unnamed story that I will maybe have details on later.
Colors: True Blue #16, "Thick as thieves"; Aqua saturation
Supplies and Styles: Saturation; eraser; miniature collection; graffiti (Camp Rainbowfic - Aquatics)
Word Count: 2500
Rating: Maybe PG to be safe?
Warnings: Features three people who have all survived kinds of abuse and rough situations and their aftermath, including references to prolonged captivity of a non-human sentient person and an abusive parent, but no actual in-depth abuse
Notes: *comes swinging in four years later and two days under the wire for the challenge* Hi everyone, I missed you. I have been doing a lot of reworking of original stuff lately, and I'm hoping to pick my colors back up and see if I can get back to writing around here more often with a whole host of new worlds.
Two of these characters are old characters of mine who've been retooled heavily, and I'm hoping at least one of them shows up in a proper universe fic eventually. The third belongs to a friend not on DW, who's given me permission to write him in this little AU that we've talked about, affectionately known as the seaside trio.

Story: Slipping
'Verse: Feredar
Colors: Aqua #22. West, Cinnabar #3. Mercury, French Grey #18. My life is spent in one long effort to escape from the commonplace of existence.
Supplies and Materials: miniature, photography, canvas, stain, feathers, chalk, seed beads, novelty beads (“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” - Henry Ford), beading wire, glitter ("People aren’t either wicked or noble. They’re like chef’s salads, with good things and bad things chopped and mixed together in a vinaigrette of confusion and conflict." – Lemony Snicket, The Grim Grotto), glue ("The more you try to explain yourself today, the less clear your message becomes.")

Supplies and Materials: frame, acrylic, pastels (my current gen + romance card G3 "childhood romance"), novelty beads, glitter (Regret)
Word Count: 1397
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Lonura, Isshiri
Warnings: References to sex and the messy end of a relationship
Notes: Constructive criticism welcome, as always. This takes place during the fiveish years when Nolani and Lonura are pining not speaking to each other. Near-brother is a similar term to 'brother-in-law,' but relates to a formal romantic relationship that is not a legal marriage, for whatever reason. At some point, I should do probably do a thing about the marital/sexual laws of Glass. And maybe invent the rules of kefiri...

Supplies and Materials: eraser (Tudors AU), brush (advocate), watercolors, oils, modeling clay, charcoal, pastels (my current gen + romance card O3 "market"), glitter ("Sometimes you just have to try, even though you know it won't work." – Junot Diaz)
Word Count: 879
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Tana, Kellom
Warnings: Tana, arranged/forced marriage.
Notes: Constructive criticism welcome, as always. Because I clearly needed another AU. This one exists because Helena Bonham Carter played Anne Boleyn once. For the purposes of this AU, Feredar is one of the many small German states that existed at this time. The royal family of the City of Glass reigns in the Ottoman Empire, and I've rearranged a few royal marriages to suit the story. Unless I need to squeeze in another of my fictional nations as a direct counterpart (instead of an addition to the map, like Feredar), all other real-world monarchs and political figures will remain the same. Tana is approximately twenty-three here, making Kellom thirty-one. Andrell would be sixteen, and Mera nineteen.
