Okay, some explanation is required. I read a passage from a book called 'Silk and Steel' via: [link] and felt utterly compelled to do some fanart.
An excerpt:
As Spikenard watched, Bronwyn slipped the transparent cloak from her shoulders; it fell with a whisper. She let her hands drop to her sides; she pulled her shoulders back and stood erect, feet apart, legs straight. This is what he sawronwyn standing pale and tall in the nervous light that shimmered through a vibrating canopy of green leaves. The shifting bands of milky light and emerald shadow made her seem luminous, translucent, as though she were a tallow candle glowing beneath its own flame. Like a porcelain lantern. Like a curtain fluttering in a window at dawn. Like a ghost that came and went with the twilight and darkness, that first veiled and then revealed.Her hair had the sheen of the sea beneath an eclipsed moon. It was the color of a leopard's tongue, of oiled mahogany. It was terra cotta, bay and chestnut. Her hair was a helmet, a hood, the cowl of the monk, magician or cobra.Her face had the fragrance of a gibbous moon. The scent of fresh snow. Her eyes were dark birds in fresh snow. They were the birds' shadows, they were mirrors; they were the legends on old charts. They were antique armor and the tears of dragons. Her brows were a raptor's sharp, anxious wings. They were a pair of scythes. Her ears were a puzzle carved in ivory. Her teeth were her only bracelet; she carried them within the red velvet purse of her lips. Her tongue was amber. Her tongue was a ferret, an anemone, a fox caught in the teeth of a tiger.Her shoulders were the clay in a potter's kiln. Her shoulders were fieldstones; they were the white, square stones of which walls are made. They were windows covered with steam. They were porcelain. They were opal and moonstone...
(It goes on)
I'm not sure whether to label this mature content, because her maguppies are an apple, a lemon, a morel mushroom, a honeycomb, and a window.
I just found out about this story today, laughed harder than I've ever laughed before, and after a quick google search to find out what novel it was from, found this piece. I'm thrilled that you have her thighs of eels and toes of snails with shells of tears! Sheer brilliance!
OH GOD This is actually a running joke in my guild for just how horrific it is...I am so glad they linked this for me. You have done a brilliant thing.

Hahaha! My sister read me this except the other day, and I went searching for the name of the actual book, and I found this image in my search. This is hilarious, and I thank you for drawing it!
