I saw @yolkylemon's dtiys and i had to participate. I made it a bit more angsty because that's what i live for
Every time he does this is breaks my heart
I'm back on that short haired Jean agenda.
I love to see all the fluffy haired Jeans coursing around, but for me he just doesn't look like that. He's had his hair yanked out in clumps, has been probaly held down by it, yanked around by it. So, I think one of the ways he gains a bit of control over himself and his body is by keeping his hair short enough so nobody can properly hold onto it, let alone pull it hard enough that chunks get torn out.
He says he is vain enough that the bald patches it left behind bother him, but i don't think he would go see a hair dresser about it, because letting a stranger touch a part of your body that is connected to a lot of trauma? I don't think he would let that happen.
Cat even pointed out that Jean's hair looks uneven, and she assumes it is like that because he cut it himself. I think he let the patches grow and tried to cut the rest down to the same length, so it doesn't look as obvious as just leaving the rest longer. So I think his hair is quite short, around the lenght hair takes to grow when it regrows for like 2-3 months and the rest of his hair is cut accordingly.
So, besides having short hair being a bit of a self-protective thing, I think, it's also just something that makes sense, because otherwise it would just be SO patchy?
This is art from like 2022, but I thought it would suit the occasion. Maybe I'll redraw it

Send in the Raven (of Feathers and Bone)
Rating: Explicit Archive Warnings: - graphic descriptions of violence - rape/noncon Other warnings: nonconsensual tattooing, attempted suicide Categories: m/m Relationships: Jeremy/Jean, Riko/Jean, Implied Riko/Kevin
Characters: Jean Moreau, Jeremy Knox, Riko Moriyama, Tetsuji Moriyama, Original Ravens Player Characters, Kevin Day, Mentioned David Wymack, Mentioned Betsy Dobson, Laila Dermott, Sarah Alvarez, additional background characters
Additional tags: Dead dove don't eat, as in it is what it says on the tin this story is dark as hell sorry, Angst, Hurt/comfort, Angst with a happy ending, Jean's POV, sharing a room (but bad), Jeremy Knox is a Good Boyfriend, canon compliant, Friends to lovers, leaving bad situations, canonical levels of violence, panic attacks, nightmares, ptsd, abuse, sex, healing sex, we love to see reclamation of your body through love, implied attempted suicide
Summary: Every time Jean sees Jeremy Knox, it's always from the other side of a barrier. A TV screen, a jersey, an entire country, or the hand of Riko that holds Jean's leash close. The light Jeremy Knox exudes pulls Jean towards him like a planet in a gravitational pull. He knows he has to break the chains he has tying him to the Ravens if he ever wants to reach Jeremy's light with his own fingers. As Jean grows up, he watches Jeremy grow right alongside him, but only from the other side of a barrier. A pre-canon + post-canon study of Jean's life before and after the Ravens. Hey everyone! Super honored to be able to participate in the @aftgbigbang this year! I may have crawled over the finish line but in true fox fashion I suppose I kept crawling. This is supposed to be read in Full Work mode, not chapter by chapter mode, however you may do as you please? I’m not the boss of you but idk there’s my recommendation. Thank you so so much to my artists this year, Kiz and Starling! You can find @solelystarling 's wonderful art in the End Notes :) The way this is laid out is in 3 chapters: Chapter 1 is the ravens, chapter 2 is a short intermission (go get a coffee, go pee, I love you this fic is long), and chapter 3 is the trojans. It is told in a series of drabbles. Hope you enjoy!
Here is the fic my work is based on
My contribution to the @aftgbigbang this year.
Please check out the lovely fic this is based on by @pibachu, i really enjoyed the collab!
I tried something a little different with the style and i think i dig it. It definitely fits the vibe I think.

Who You Gonna Call? (Andrew Minyard/Neil Josten)
My fic for the Winter 2020 @aftgexchange is for @solelystarling! I tried to fit in as many of your prompts as possible! It was a lot of fun to write and I hope you like it!
Neil has a poltergeist.
This is fine.
It’s never hurt anyone. Well, not seriously. And sure, it’s annoying, but Neil has dealt with worse.
It’s fine.
Until Jean brings his new boyfriend over and suddenly everyone has “concerns.”
I participated in the @aftgexchange and made this piece for @fuzzballsheltiepants. Just some fluffy Andreil for the soul. I really hope you like it!
The first time Nicky meets Erik Klose, Erik pads into the kitchen, takes one look at him, and freezes.Nicky’s first thought is that Erik looks exactly like one of those boys you’d take home to meet your mom. Clean face. Tall, but not lanky. Some stubborn baby fat still sticks to his cheeks.
His second thought is that only a boy like Erik would wear a t-shirt two sizes too big that says, I bee-lieve in you! across it in big, blocky letters. A cartoon bee spirals toward his armpit.
“Ähm,” Erik says, and stops there.“
This art piece was a collab with the wonderful @quensty, I was allowed to draw something for their beautiful story for the @aftgbigbang.
Please check out their fic and all the other amazing contributions of the people participating in the big bang!
