Guys I’m lesbianing to hard, it’s too much 🫣
I’ve made some more art of Leia(I love her so much) this time featuring some of Dawn and ‘Golden’. I love how these turned out so I figured I’d share my hyperfixation on silver and his family, I love this au and the character designs so much, and they are so fun to draw, sorry for having so much to past at random times lol. I just absolutely adore them.
Credits to @sunanthonyz for his au and design of Leia and Golden, they’re so silly and I love drawing them!
I finally got a little bit of motivation to draw again, so I’m back with some Princess Leia art, with some nice mother son bonding. This is a rough sketch but I wanted to draw her after state because the whole theater there reminded me of her lol, my inspiration comes from the most random things ever. Anyways I love her so much and felt like I should draw her again.
As always credits are due for @sunanthonyz for Leia and Golden’s design. They are so cute! 🫶
• Alright Who Is Cutting Onions In Here?! 😭 •
LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL LEAH LOOKS, MY WIFE THANK YOU FOR DRAWING HER!!!! 🥰🫶🫶🫶🫶
I think Leah and Dawn should leave each other and date me instead.
I tried to make Dawn and Silver look similar, but not a copy paste. I'm gonna make more family trees just based on headcanon.
Leah crumbs make me happy, such beautiful art 🥰

You guys gotta hear me out

On my knees rn begging
Begging with the single dollar to my name rn
hmm yes you got quite the brilliant idea anon
also as i was sketching leah i just remembered how disappointed i was when i found out we got like zero more information bout her besides the fact that shes the knights wife and henricks sister🥀like full gorgeously rendered sprite with a chibi for absolutely no dialogue or anything😔 they didnt even bother with the name and just ripped it right off her og character 😭 i just rlly wish we got to know how her personality was at least or sumth, i mean at least we got more room for interpretation but i dont think its unreasonable to ask for a bit of info
I’m actually gonna sob now 😭
Thinking thoughts about Silver’s bio parents again
So have this comic!
The same way that Meleanor knew that she wouldn’t be able to meet Malleus, do we think that Ray had a feeling that this would be the mission that he didn’t come back from? That he knew it deep down that he would never see Leah again or hold his child? Cause I think that’s a fun idea
Honestly I'm surprised at how much actual hate I've seen towards the Dawn Armor announcement (mostly Twitter). Just because he's wearing the armor doesn't mean he has to slay/harm Malleus.
Reasoning and anticipated outcome below cut
The reasons:
Already, Silver and Dawn have shown parallels. While they both wish for the unity of fae, humans, etc., Dawn followed any order despite knowing it was wrong because he didn't want to betray Heinrick (and by extension, his family). Meanwhile, Silver was already shown to go against Malleus's order for the greater good (early book 7 in Sebek's dream, when he refused to fall asleep even after being bashed for his disobedience, and fled from Malleus to save him and everyone else). There's also things like rabbitfest where he was completely warranted to dust those delinquents, especially since everyone else initially wanted to do that too, but he immediately went for a passive approach. That's not as strong of an example because there's no lives on the line, though.
Another thing we're forgetting is that Silver and Dawn likely had vastly different environments growing up. Silver was raised by Lilia, a fae who advocated for peace between all species. He also has peers who don't harbor any particular hate towards fae because the modern world is more tolerant. Meanwhile, Dawn might have had good intentions, but from what we see, at least some of the humans he grew up with had little regard for fae (Heinrick). And, judging by lines about their greed and lack of care for the environment, it's highly probable that most others had the same lack of regard. It's a little hard to follow your beliefs when it'll seem like betraying everyone else who you want to protect, ESPECIALLY your family. This leads to what I believe is one of the key differences.
Heinrick manipulated Dawn by telling him it was for Leah's happiness and her father's health. Maleanor is not someone Dawn has personally known, making it less of a loss to slay her in order to save what's important to him (as terrible as it is, and undoubtedly, it was a hard but wrong decision imo). On the contrary, Malleus is a part of Silver's family + his liege, and that's important to him. He's doing this to save Malleus and everyone else, not just to save one side like Dawn was.
Also, Malleus is doing this with misplaced intentions to make everyone happy, and the others seem somewhat aware of this (most definitely Silver, who saw his reasoning from beginning to end). Meanwhile, humans back then probably tried to dehumanize fae (especially Maleanor) by labeling them as the evil ones. No one is actively advocating for Malleus actually be slayed, giving Silver more room to follow his own will, unlike Dawn. So, not only was he raised to follow his will, but his environment is a lot more forgiving. As a matter of fact, if the others also advocate for not harming Malleus, there's really no reason AT ALL for Silver to hurt him.
Besides, it seems like TWST has been trying to represent a theme that the world is slowly changing, and issues do get resolved after overblots. Think of fairy gala. When Dawn said the line praying for all intelligent beings to live in harmony, he was about to slay Maleanor. When Silver said the line, it was because they actually SUCCEEDED at bringing the species together. History did not repeat itself, and I think it would be counterintuitive/more difficult for book 7 to end if they tried making Silver harm Malleus.
Also, did we forget how shaken Silver was when he realized he was related to Dawn? And how he had a whole character development realizing that even though he shared genetics with Dawn, he was still different and he was loved? Then vowed to save everyone? Super counterintuitive to go back on all of that for the sake of angst.
The conclusion:
In my opinion, I think the Dawn Armor has potential to be the opposite of "traumatizing" for Lilia. Sure, at first, he'll probably get a spook seeing that armor come out, but I think he trusts Silver enough to take the right route. I think it might finally give Lilia some internal peace when he sees Silver wield the same armor to save Malleus instead of slaying him, like a good ending version of what happened years ago. I also think Dawn Knight himself would be proud of Silver for doing what he failed at, assuming he's watching over Sil from the ring. At least, that's what I'm personally hoping for.
Feel free to throw tomatoes at me like a medieval villager if I'm wrong tho 🫡
Queen Leah's genes surrendered without even getting onto the battlefield.
I figured I’d take a shot at Georgina leech and did a quick sketch of her 🫶
