"Both were in very inconvenient positions in which to hug, especially as Strike still had his seat belt on, but neither let go for several long minutes. Strike gently rubbed Robin’s back, and she held him in a tight grip, occasionally apologising while his shirt collar grew wet. Instead of recoiling when he pressed his lips to the top of her head, she tightened her hold on him."

1897 Dutch Neo-Classical in Cadillac, Michigan is in beautiful condition. 5bds, 5ba, $859,900.
A foyer opens directly into the 1st floor.
A small keeping room leads into the sitting room.
The sitting room is very large and has a cute alcove.
I can't say for sure that this cabinet is a built-in, but maybe it conveys if they took a photo of it.
Lovely fireplace and wainscoting.
You can tell that the fireplace is very old in this closeup.
The kitchen is disappointing. It just doesn't match.
This home has service stairs in the kitchen, just like an historic mansion usually does.
The pantry was remodeled. I like the original light fixture.
There's this magnificent dining room off that kitchen. I don't know what they were thinking.
Beautiful turquoise tiles on the fireplace.
Check out the powder room. Wow, that is one old toilet and sink.
Beautiful stair landing. Look at the fireplace.
What a cozy room. The tile on the fireplace is amazing.
From the uppermost landing you can see that fireplace through the glass doorway.
Very large primary bedroom has an alcove and a fireplace.
The baths in this home are incredible.
This bedroom has a mid-century modern vibe.
This bath has some newer fixtures, but still looks so vintage.
There's a massive finished attic with a kitchen.
And, the basement is finished, also.
The beautiful 2nd floor balcony.
The home is on a beautifully landscaped .50 lot.

This is the first time I've asked a question, but first I just wanted to say that I love your art!! I wonder what the archivists' anatomy must be like, do they have organs? or they would be made of some space material or even have a vital core made of a star.
got two very simillar questions very close and one about skin that vanished for some reason from my inbox, so yeah, thanks for that tumblr, but anyway
The way I envision physical form is more of a mimicry of a body than an actual organic entity. Particles of stardust being moved and reshaped by the magic they consist of, sticking together to form an approximation of a mortal body and functioning as an outer shell to protect it. The thing about muscles is that they use relatively little energy compared to the work they do; they mostly need some to contract, tendons working as ropes pulling bones, while reshaping the whole arm to move it I imagine would require much more energy. (Its why as very small kids they are more glowy and "fluid" more reshaping). There isn't much difference between the Collector conjuring a doll in WaD and conjuring a form. With magic suppliying energy there isn't really a need for organs, its just the basic mechanical system to interact with physical world
For the bluish patches on the skin, it's where the magic seeps through. That's why they get darker and cover more area as they get older, having more magic at their disposal. Shapes are sort of souvenirs from the time as shapless magical creature mimicked the things around them, be it a bright star or a nearby planet they formed close to. As for why it's the color it is, it's just the color celestial magic takes in that form
Froooom a more design point of view, it looked better to have a bluish hue to me, and it's a element to distinguish between characters and keep them looking like family since drawing faces is tricky. And I do like the body horror aspect of unorganic creatures trying to mimic living
