The driest place in the world is in Antarctica. You wouldn’t think it with the whole continent being made of ice, but it’s actually true. Right in the middle, there’s a place scientists like to call the Dry Valleys where there’s no ice at all, just crust. It hasn’t rained there in more than a million years and any moisture that manages to roll down into the valleys from the surrounding ice shelves is immediately evaporated by winds rushing through at 200 miles per hour: cold enough to freeze your skin solid or fast enough to rip it off. Oddly enough, even the Dry Valleys aren’t devoid of life. A kind of bacteria called extremophiles thrives off the harsh environment and lack of competition for food.

The first time he met her was when he was thirteen.
Vilhelm was already used to pretending to be the prefect child, standing still and silent to exalt his father in the eyes of attendees at every party, dinner, and casual event he was forcibly dragged to. He didn’t have a choice in the matter, and he only made the mistake of voicing his displeasure once. The sting still lingered across his knuckles, serving now as a constant reminder of what would happen if he stepped out of line again.
Rosa was the daughter of some prestigious scientists from a different country. Even as a child, Vilhelm could still tell that she was different from him. She didn’t seem to fear her parents, instead having no shame in discretely pulling her mother’s dress or stepping up to her father to hold his hand or ask a question. If he would do that, he’d get swatted for sure, but her parents seemed to have no qualms with her behavior.
Electronic musician Porter Robinson has spent a lot of time in Japan over the last year (or two). One of the main reasons is that he has been working tirelessly on this anime. This has been a very personal project for Porter and we are super happy for him that it’s finally out. Please watch the anime and also read the explanation of the story on the “Shelter” YouTube Page.
Summary:A rogue charm hits on a mission and suddenly, Draco is nineteen again. Harry is still thirty-five and doing his best to look after his de-aged Auror partner (and forget about his long unrequited crush) until St. Mungo’s can brew the antidote. Only, Draco insists on wandering around Harry’s flat wearing nothing but Harry’s pants, flirting like his life depends on it and in the end, Harry’s only human after all.

A/N: This fic is a gift for the wonderful @sitp-recs who has given the fandom so much!! Happy two-year fandom-versary Liv!!!!!! We are all so lucky you’re here, writing incredible recs, helping people find amazing fics, making gorgeous banners and mood boards, and helping to build and sustain the friendly, supportive, no-bullshit culture that makes the Drarry fandom special.
I was thrilled to receive this wonderful gift by @sorrybutblog last week and immediately fell in love with her young Draco, her daddy older Harry, their sexy and tender dynamics. I wanted to do something special in return and luckily that’s when @ihopeyoubothstaysafefromharm reblogged about @snarkyships-drarryside’s commissions post! I’ve been a huge fan of this artist since I saw the brilliant and charming artwork for The Liars Department and I had no doubt their style would fit this story like a glove! Thanks so much Snarky, for embarking into this with passion and enthusiasm, and for reflecting the exact tenderness I had in mind when I read this cuddle scene!!! It was amazing to see these panels coming alive and I can’t thank you enough for allowing me to gift a friend with your gorgeous work I hope you enjoy, Iota!!!
Why not title my drawing for once. Parts still bother me, but it’s good enough. It’s ALWAYS going to bother me no matter how much I work on it cuz that be art, you know? Enjoy all the references :V
Going to edit the speedpaint at some point of time. Yes, this whole thing was recorded (using CSP’s timelapse option, though it’s on 3 separate files because I had to keep saving and deleting the old timelapse and starting a “new” one to make room because the file would be like 7-8 million Kb, and my computer did not like 4 million Kb. When will that come out? When I find a new editing program.
