Calliope: Recollection
(a poorly drawn mini-comic inspired by a recent convo between yours truly and @ahhhh-118, enjoy!)
Translation:
Cairns family homestead, 1917...
Adeline: Calliope?... Where are you going with that shovel?
Calliope: just gonna go withdraw some money, mum.
Calliope (in mind): just a little money...
A few years earlier...
Robert: Oi, Calli! Where yah goin'?
Calliope: Goin' down to feed the sheep, why?
Callum: *narrows eyes in suspicion*
Robert: You've only got a few more bucks in your allowance, so.yah betta make it count.
Calliope: Yessir!
Calliope (in present mind): *sigh*
Calliope (still in present mind): It's just to keep us fed... I promise I'll pay you back... Someday
For context, this follows an eighteen year old Calliope (aka, when she still had long hair) whose mother approaches her about where she's going. Calliope responds that she's going to withdraw money, but doesn't tell her that she's withdrawing money from the secret stash of money Calli and her brothers had stolen from banks and buried out on their families property (they come from a family of cattle farmers). Calli reminisces to herself about only taking a little, before we're thrown back to a fifteen year old Calli with her two older brothers Robert and Callum. Robert asks Calli where she's going and she responds with lie, of which her brothers catch onto. Robert replying with what he knows she's actually going to do, and says to use the rest of what she has in her 'allowance' wisely. As to make it even they had divided up their loot. Calli salutes him with her shovel before we cut to eighteen year old Calli thinking to herself, this time about how she would pay back her brothers the money she took from them to be able to feed her and her mother while they were away fighting in the great war. If they ever did come home, that is...
Woo, that was a doozy! Sorry for making the post so long 😅, there was just too much info I wanted to stuff in. Thank you so very much to the people that read this far!
With that in mind, have a splendiferous day/night!
I made this graphic to convince my brother to watch dunmeshi.
Genuine question, why do homes hate leosagi? I'm new to the fandom and kinda curious because the ship doesn't seem problematic on the surface level???
usagi is an adult with a kid and leo is 15 even if they were the same age idc about it bc usagi is more than his tmnt crossover
As recompense for your crimes, I'm obliged to ask for 24 and 29 on the question sheet plz 😌👮♂️ (even when I had stolen it from someone else first 🤫)

Uh, yeah, my first q&a in Tracy's style (more or less)! For the record the first picture is my very first attempt at self insert in a comic, please don't be too harsh on me lol.
As pertaining the second question, no. 29, "What is the stupidest thing she has ever done because someone dared her to do it?", I didn't draw anything, but I'd say a large number of senseless endeavors with... you guessed it, the Savoy siblings, yet again. It's always them.
Of the likes of, throwing knives - only problem being, that Margo herself was the one having knives thrown at her like a circus performance. And she was giggling like a blushing schoolgirl, too. Or going rowing with a shirtless, barefoot Nicodeme in a swamp hosting crocodiles as its fauna. Or having voodoo love symbols carved in unnamable places of her body by an overeager Serafine (yes, I do will descend into further details about this in another post sooner or later).
But even after it all Marjorie's still alive and well, isn't she? And as they say, 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger'.
Or just batshit crazy in Margo's particular case, but she's not the only one. Margo, we feel you.
The two outfit references for the third drawing as well. I simply combined pieces from each suit and added her southern bow tie, while I kept the dress the same but simplistic.
Finally finished with the Åse standee. The flower inb the back is suposed to be Purple loosetrife.
Purple loosetrifes (Lythrum salicaria) are a pink flower that is part of the Lythraceae family. They bloom in autumn tend to grow near water. They're call Kattehale in Norwegian witch translates to Cattail not to be confused with the American Cattail which I don’t think grow anywhere in Norway. They are one of the many plants that grow around the Mjøsa lake. I chose this flower to represent Ace mostly because of it’s location and name. As far as I can tell it doesn't have any specific meaning but the name lythrum might be derived from the Greek word for blood. Red is Ace’s primary color and in general I associate Ace with blood more specifically the blood that gathers under your nails when scratching someone. (its weirdly specific I know but for some reason thats the strongest visual representation I’ve imagined for Ace for the longest time idk) loosetrife also contains the word strife which I also feel ties into Ace and her story allot.
I went for something more stylized for the flowers. I'm not good at painting realism so I think this is the best I can do lol.
