Cute little Cassunzel thingy I drew (and by drew I mean put together a bunch of screenshots of Cass and Raps and traced them cuz I had a vision and my drawing skills are not up to par with that😭). Hope you love it!💗
“It horrifies me that you felt like you’re an intruder. It doesn’t even make sense because... honestly, when I think of my life, I imagine you at the center.”

ANYBODY READING NEVERMORE ON WEBTOON??? CAUSE,,, besides the PERFECT artwork and the Poe references and the historical setting intertwined with fantasy and the macabre, THE WAY THE CENTRAL RELATIONSHIP IS PORTRAYED?? ITS PERFECTION. [slight spoilers for 41-42 below the cut]
i've never found wlw relationships portrayed the way i want them to be and this. this takes the cake. this is it. give me that anger, that imperfection, that hand around the throat, that "To you alone, I have left myself completely defenseless," that, "Kill me if you choose, pet." It makes me weak. I need it. I need the love that you feel that makes you so, so wanting, to the point where you'd not only trust them to have their hands around your throat, but that you'd put their hands there yourself because "I don't want a new life if you're not in it." Nevermore is the best wlw comic i've read thus far because it makes you want it. because they're already in love but you don't know anything about their past life so you're unraveling the story backwards while their story in the afterlife progresses. because you can FEEL the tension, because the characters are multi-dimensional, because in the historical context they have their own struggles with femininity and identity and their roles in society but never with the fact that they want one another besides the need for trust being what keeps them apart. but they don't stay apart, they don't run away because it's scary to be queer, they don't stop chasing. Annabel Lee frustrates Lenore but she wants her, needs her, and we don't know more than the characters do. we feel that tension because we're experiencing their memories and trials as they experience them. we don't know what'll happen next. and god, Annabel Lee is beautiful, ethereal, but she's secretly so cunning and we want to know what's going on in her head. Lenore is honest and rugged but plays the game because Annabel Lee told her and she doesn't know why she wants to trust her, she just does. They want one another for so much more than physical intimacy and that sort of drive is so often omitted in lesbian stories on screen. i've been wanting THIS EXACT THING for so long. here it is. gorgeous work by Kate Flynn and Kit Trace. i can't wait to see how it continues
