“Feeling more human and hooked on his flesh I Lay my heart down with the rest at his feet Fresh from the fields, all fetor and fertile Bloody and raw, but I swear it is sweet”

Fanart based on the painting “Lilith” (1887) by John Collier because I can’t see any painting resembling The Garden of Eden without my brain relating it to them now. Close-ups below.

This is a piece of fanart I’ve been working on inspired by this amazingly written fanfic I read on AO3 by 29Piecescalled“Soul of Vellum, Heart of Chrome”. It’s a really angsty and adorable take on how the Bentley and the Bookshop may actually be way more than what any of us expects. Check out the fic! It’s absolutely lovely and give all your love to the artist!
