New shot of my Wiccan costume!
(Yes I made my eyes blue in photoshop, I haven’t mastered contacts yet. Still working out how to do the magic effect…)

It was the heaviest thing I’ve ever endured, and I had the sensation of being crushed under a thousand trucks. I thought it was going to faint from the pain, but took a deep breath. I can do this. — The Titan’s Curse (Drawn by Jujubajulia)

Valyria was the last ember, and Valyria is gone. The dragons are no more, the giants are dead, the children of the forest forgotten with all their lore. Sad to say, but magic is gone.

Ivan Aivazovsky - The Black Sea At Night, 1879
We [Fraction and his wife, Kelly Sue DeConnick] were pregnant at the time, and while I was out there I started to realize that if I had a daughter, there would come a day when I would have to apologize to her for my profession. I would have to apologize for the way it treats and speaks to women readers, and the way it treats its female characters.
I knew that if we had a daughter, because I know my wife and I know the kind of girl she wants to raise and I know the kind of girl I want to raise, she was going to look at what I did for a living and want to know how the fuck I could stomach it. How could I sell her out like that?” Fraction continued. “That conversation is still coming, and I’m bracing for it in the way that some dads brace for their daughter’s first date or boyfriend. I became acutely aware that I had sort of done that thing that lots of privileged hetero cisgendered white dudes do. ‘I’m cool with women, and that’s enough.’ It’s not enough. It’s embarrassing to say, because we somehow have attached shame to learning and evolving our opinions, culturally, but I became aware that there was a deficiency of and to women in my work, and all I could do at that moment was take care of my side of the street.
