beautiful art, and a great take on the card as well. her face is wonderfully expressive.

Thanks for liking it!

beautiful! and wonderful interpretation of the card as well. ♥

[soramame_kun]

I enjoyed drawing it. And I really couldn't imagine a better character for the Empress the moment I read the description of the card. Thanks!

Oooh, I love this! The discard of her mask and infant Draco in her arms...wow. And I love breastfeeding art; it's powerful and beautiful and sexy as hell, all at the same time.

Trust you, amanuensis, queen of non-con and smut, to make breastfeeding seem sexy! LOL :) But honestly, I was recently reading up on the history of breastfeeding and yeah, apparently wet-nurses were always REALLY sexy because they were chosen for their fine features, good skin, good health and BIG BOOBS lol. In fact, most of them ended up being mistresses of the Master of the House, while the non-breastfeeding Mistresses worried about preserving their figures and bustlines and avoided breastfeeding their own children. Ironic isn't it? And seems like a fic just gasping to be written in some fandom or other!

Long time no see, good to see you're still around enriching the fandom. *hugs*

DAYum but that is a serious plotbunny, you're right.

Actually I do have a longstanding original breastfeeding kink story that I do want to write down at some point. Heaven knows when I'll get to it.

Wow, I really love all the symbolism you incorporated into this piece (as described in your notes)! Just her expression and the way she holds Draco is so beautiful and loving, you can easily see her doing the sort of things she did in DH to keep her baby safe - like nothing would stand between her and her son. Lovely entry!

[soramame_kun]

Thanks a lot dear! Yeah, Book 7 really melted my heart towards Narcissa. I knew the fandom had always been sympathetic to her, but it seems JK was as well :)

Am so glad I managed to convey my intended effect succesfully! I was worried it wouldnt' come out right as I am so rusty after not drawing for a year. Thanks again!
