Read the Big Bang fic about this Completely Normal Theater AU

Play Por Una Cabeza in the background

Yearn

Leave nice comments/kudos for the author because gd this is a very good fic and there are so many clever references thrown in there to all sorts of mythos stuff

Summary: When piano teacher and retired composer Arthur Lester agreed to take a minor composing job with the Arkham Community Theatre group at the behest of his friend Henry Armitage, he didn’t expect to regain his inspiration and zest for life. Yet even as he rediscovers his muse, Arthur learns that the production—a musical adaptation of a peculiar play with a dark reputation—has been plagued by mysterious delays, accidents, and deaths. At the heart of it all is curmudgeonly librettist John, an even more peculiar figure who may be harboring the darkest secret of them all.

Bonus sketch for @malevolentbigbang! For @lyresnake's wonderful fic,

Tentacles Get into Everything Eventually: and Other Lessons from the Theater

(this event was the first time I've drawn Malevolent fan art, so sketching a sweet moment at the piano in the fic felt like the perfect way to familiarize myself with drawing Arthur and John)

[ID: A black and white sketch of Arthur and John, who's human. Arthur sits on a piano bench. He rests his hands on the keys, and leans back against John, who stands directly behind him. John reaches around Arthur to grasp Arthur's hands in his own. /End ID]

It was amazing to get to work with you, thank you so much! 💛

@malevolentbigbang 2023 art time!!!

I was partnered with @lyresnake for their wonderful fic,

Tentacles Get into Everything Eventually: and Other Lessons from the Theater

I don't want to say too much ;) but this fic has some of the most vivid descriptions and imagery I've encountered. It's honestly been a treat to illustrate...

Arthur surface, gasping, beneath a sky of black stars. He floated amid the golden, iridescent flotsam of the stranger’s cloak. Around and below him wove a net of black tentacles, holding him at the margin of water and air. He stared into the empty eyes of the stranger. “Arthur,” said the stranger, in a voice he knew. “Please, wake up.”

[ID: Arthur, submerged but for his head, floats at the boundary between water and sky. The Stranger, a yellow-cloaked being with a pale mask for a face hovers directly above him. Underwater, Arthur is held in place by the Stranger’s dark tentacles, which are gently wrapped around his limbs. He gazes up into the expressionless mask of the Stranger, who gazes back. Above them, black stars are strewn across a sky at sunset. Surf from the waves push against the body of the Stranger. /End ID]

After Addison, Arthur and John didn’t go to New York - they just went home, and set up shop in as PIs in Arkham. Now several months later, having completed work for a wealthy client, they find themselves invited to a fancy dinner party with New England’s elite occultists. But among the rich and famous diners are two unexpected guests: “Andrew” Larson, Arthur’s one time nemesis, and Peter Yang, back from the dead but not quite right. After an awkward dinner, and an introduction to a mysterious supernatural artifact, a corpse is discovered. It’s up to Arthur and John to solve the murder and stop the artifact before it unleashes its eldritch magic on them all.

Or is it? Maybe instead, Arthur and Peter fool around in the back room and they miss the drama. Maybe Arthur and John can stop the murder entirely. In this Choose Your Own Adventure there are multiple endings and more than one way to make it to midnight.

My entry to the @malevolentbigbang 2023! With beta Zuzeca and artists @miskapestek and @franksfishies. I threw so much into this fic, I hope you’ll check it out and let me know what ending you get (first)!

BROOMS cover reveal!!

It's 1930s Mississippi. Magic is permitted only in certain circumstances, and by certain people. Unsanctioned broom racing is banned. But for those who need the money, or the thrills...it's there to be found.

Meet Billie Mae, captain of the Night Storms racing team, and Loretta, her best friend and second-in-command. They're determined to make enough money to move out west to a state that allows Black folks to legally use magic and take part in national races. Cheng-Kwan - doing her best to handle the delicate and dangerous double act of being the perfect "son" to her parents, and being true to herself while racing. Mattie and Emma -- Choctaw and Black -- the youngest of the group and trying to dodge government officials who want to send them and their newly-surfaced powers away to boarding school. And Luella, in love with Billie Mae. Her powers were sealed away years ago after she fought back against the government. She'll do anything to prevent the same fate for her cousins.

Brooms is a queer, witchy Fast and the Furious that shines light on history not often told - it's everything you'd ever want to read in a graphic novel.

“Him.”
