opaldelight: opaldelight: A little after star-rise, Shiro was just about to start checking the crate
A little after star-rise, Shiro was just about to start checking the craters when
something bright and vivid hurtled through the space above him. It tumbled down to his moon, landing past the crest of a nearby hill with a thump.
Alarmed, Shiro ran over the barren rock to check on whatever had fallen.
He stopped at the ridge of a shallow crater. The whatever-it-is had landed in the center, a warm glow against the colorless surface of the moon. It shifted, revealing dark hair and slender hands that moved over it gingerly.
“Ow,” came a small, pained voice. And then, “fuck.”
Shiro lost his breath on the next inhale.
A starchild, he realized, looking down in awe.
“Fuck,” the starchild said again, with much feeling.
My collab piece with @plstskys for the @vld-au-zinecollection [Sheith edition]! <3
It has been so awesome to be able to create art for this!! <3 The fic is so environmental and the interactions between Shiro and Keith are this amazing mix of lightheartedness and genuine emotion that made me close my laptop and go lie down by the end of it.
Pre-orderers opened once again and will remain open until September 22nd so go ahead and grab your copy before they close! :)
