Lovely art with so many details. I like the dragon's crossed arms on the title page. The font is pretty awesome too. The offering of the tea is very touching. Such a sweet dragon and grumpy Jensen. The dividers are so eye-catching. I love how you worked a dragon into all three. Wonderful work.

These are absolutely delightful! The watercolour-feel is just like old style children's book illustrations and I love them to pieces! And how you've managed to get such a worried Jared expression on the dragon's face in the tea scene, I don't know. Kudos my dear!

Love the art- especially the antique-hardbound gilded book look. The detail on the guns and the steaming tea-cup is also enchanting!
Can't wait to read!

I know I gushed at you over each of these in email, but I want to be sure to gush out here in public and SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS that this is all such wonderful, wonderful art you've created for the story. Tea-serving dragon!Jared is simply absolute perfection. It still astonishes me how you captured his expression of bemused concern so brilliantly, and also grumpy!Jensen. Love love love!! And thank you for my sweet icons, and the beautiful dragon-themed dividers. And to top it all, the storybook cover for the fic is such a FANTASTIC motif. I'm so thrilled you picked this story to illustrate and that you made such beautiful things. THANK YOU!!! ♥!
