I present to you the fully colored (with the gouache brush in the brush pack) sketch with added bonus fic. This is a collaboration with killians-dimples   a.k.a. the lovely BK, a wonderful writer of the fandom, and me…the person who grossly fell all over her and begged for words. :D I hope you guys enjoy! I know I did after I finished rolling around on the floor and squealing.

She tries to offer him the others - pumpkin cheesecake, blueberry streusel, honey glazed - but he remains obstinately fixed on the cake that looks like it came out of a three-year-olds’ crack dream princess birthday party, ignoring the others and plucking it carefully from the box between thumb and forefinger.

CS Fic Rec Monday

I think we need fic recs more than ever, am I right? This one is an all time favorite of mine. I read it early on when I first joined the fandom, and I have re-read it multiple times. It was written in 2014, before Neal died and back when all our ships were less complicated. It’s now canon divergent, but it was originally a future fic. I love this take on Henry’s family dynamics, and I am a sucker for fairy tale world meets the real world in fics. The humor and family fluff abound!

Summary: In which Henry attempts to explain his crazy family to his girlfriend. Oh, and she doesn’t know they are fairy tale characters.

Rating: T (according to ff.net rating system)
