It’s the end of @forduary - boy did it go fast! It’s been so fun and SO great to see everyone’s awesome work!
For Week Four, Hugs/Hug It Out, I lovingly ripped off an old Scottish legend. I hope you enjoy!
After Ford and Stan have a fight, Stan disappears. But when Ford finally finds him, it will take a little bit more than giving a hug and making up to get him back… Or maybe that’s exactly what it will take.
“I’m tellin’ you Ford, she was gorgeous,” Stan sighed as the brothers hiked through the autumn woods of Scotland.
“What was she doing talking to you?” Ford ribbed him good naturedly.
“Ha ha,” Stan answered dryly. “Anyway, then she brought me our food, and you know what she said?”
I made this comic ages ago but it fit the theme so well that I just had to redraw it for week 4. I figured a redraw would be relatively quick and easy.
…It was not. T^T
This takes place during Stan’s recovery post-Weirdmageddon. After several days of working to get his memories back, Stan starts to remember his and Ford’s complicated history. Ford is obviously deeply apologetic and tries to reconcile, but he’s also fully prepared for Stan to hate him for what happened between the two of them. Lucky for him, this is Stanley we’re talking about. He was always gonna forgive him; all he ever wanted was his brother back.
The first time Ford found Stan curled up on his bed with the blanket pulled over his head they’d been six years old. Stan had gotten into the new books Ford had received for Christmas and accidentally spilled paint all over them. Ford was furious, and didn’t talk to Stan for three days. Then he’d walked into their room and found Stan in a ball sobbing his little eyes out.
Ford sat on the bed hesitantly, looking at the floor while his brother pretended that he didn’t know Ford was there. Eventually, Stan peeked over the blanket and Ford began to talk.
“I’m still mad.”
“– I didn’t – !”
“I’m still mad.” He reached out hesitantly then abandoned caution and threw his arms around his brother. “I really liked those books.” To his horror, tears started to roll down Ford’s cheeks. Hiccup’s caught his breath and it felt like he couldn’t breathe. “I can be mad!” Stan held him while he cried.
Hello everyone! In honor of the new year, I’ve decided to host a Draw This In Your Style!
To make it more interesting, I will also be redrawing the piece each week myself, in my own different styles! I’ll be running this event for the next six weeks(January 2-February 14). I don’t have any prizes in mind at this point in time, but that may change!
Here are some guidelines!:
- You definitely don’t need to use my color palette in particular, but colors are a plus!
- Your entry can be either traditional or digital. Neither is favored! But do try to get the best picture possible to properly show off your work.
- Please, no tracing.
- If you’d like to change it up a bit, please keep the original concept intact. The original concept is this: Artificial gravity is down! Data and Geordi will have to fix it…eventually. But cuddles come first!
- Create your own post for your entry!
- Be sure to mention me in your post and add the tag #mostlynatmdtiys! The tagging system may not be entirely reliable, but I’ll keep my eye out for all entries. That being said, I’ll be reblogging every entry as I see it, so if it’s been a while and I haven’t reblogged yours, that would be the point that you should let me know!
Have any questions? Reply to this post, and I’ll be as quick to answer as possible! If you’d like to help me get this seen by as many people as possible, please reblog! Thank you!
Hey, everyone! So, slight change of plans. Because I haven’t felt my best the past week, I’ve decided to extend the DTIYS for another two weeks, through to Valentine’s Day! I’ve edited the original post to reflect this. I figured this would give everyone, including me, more time! Thank you.
