I was lucky enough to get to work with the fabulously talented
dear_tiger for
samdean_otp Minibang, illustrating her amazing story
Love As a Hole In the Ground. It's a delightfully creepy post-Season Six casefic with Sam/Dean first time and an amazing brotherly relationship. Go read it now! I loved this story as soon as I read the rough draft and I was hugely excited to illustrate it - I hope I did it justice with my artwork, even if real life tried to stop me! Much thanks to
dear_tiger, to Sam/Dean Minibang mods
neros_violin and
cordelia_gray for running all of this, and to my darling
zempasuchil for holding my hand, letting me work and wig out at her place for the weekend, and for keeping me sane while I drew.
A monster is stealing people’s hearts around Elephant Butte, New Mexico, and now it’s after Sam’s. After he almost got married to a stranger and almost ran off to Los Angeles with Ruby on the same day, Sam can’t trust himself anymore. Worst of all, the monster might have gotten smart and turned itself into Dean this time, or else Sam really is falling in love with his brother.

“Sam!” she yells after him. “But baby, where are you going? I love you!”
Out of the corner of his eye he catches bobbing light back in the direction of the roadhouse like a tiny firefly. He takes an involuntary step towards it because it’s the Impala, it has to be.
Sam holds the snapping, snarling head by its hair while Dean stashes the body into the trunk. The head howls in Sam’s hands when the trunk closes.
I wanted to and would have loved to do a little more art for this story, especially of some of the Sam-and-Dean scenes, but unfortunately personal circumstances forestalled it. I am pretty satisfied with what I managed to produce in the time that I had, though!
