I have a problem, and it's called "becoming obsessed with the most obscure sapphic ship I can find" lol. After what happens between these two in canon though, I needed to make some art of them being cute and gay to wash away the pain

also, I randomly decided to write a little ficlet thingy to go along with this picture, so if that sounds interesting to you, read on below!

---------------------------------------------------

After class, Anna grabbed Alexandra's arm, holding her back as everyone else filed down the hallway.  "Come with me," she said, once she and Alexandra were the last one's left.

Alexandra looked at her quizzically, but acquiesced. "Okay."

Anna took Alexandra's hand and began dragging her along. She led her up two flights of stairs and around several corners, to one of the many forgotten, unused corridors in the school. Anna was sure they wouldn't be disturbed here - most students would now be returning to their dorms, or else dispersing themselves among the various clubrooms and the grounds outside.

"So what's up?" Alexandra asked. "Why couldn't we go back to our room if we needed to talk?"

Anna chewed on her lip.  "We need some privacy. Some real privacy, without any interruptions."

Alexandra snorted. "Sonja." She rolled her eyes.

Anna was glad she understood. Sonja had an annoying - though slightly endearing - habit of barging into their room without warning, and Anna felt her cheeks heating up at the mere thought of Sonja walking in on them during this.

Alexandra proceeded to pull out her wand, then began to sweep it in a half-circle, a motion Anna recognized as her sound dampening charm. Anna placed her hand over Alexandra's, stopping the spell. "Um. That's... not necessary, Alex."

Slowly, Alexandra put her wand back in her pocket, then gave Anna a long, appraising look. She must have noticed the tension on Anna's face. "Anna? What's wrong?"

Inside, Anna was screaming at herself. She had been so confident earlier, told herself all morning that today would be the day. But now that they were actually here, alone, she was losing her nerve. She began trying to think up an excuse for having dragged her friend up here, something to let her avoid the truth, yet again. All of a sudden she was back to the shy, timid girl she had been five years ago, before she came to Charmbridge.

But then Alexandra had come crashing into her life and befriended her, seemingly on a whim. She had shown Anna bravery and courage, had shown her that being brash, and confident, and even a little reckless sometimes, could be a good thing.

Because of Alex, she could be brave. For Alex, she could be a little reckless, just this once.

Anna took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. "Nothing's wrong. In fact..." Anna reached and grasped Alexandra's hands. She ran her fingertips over the charm bracelet Alexandra wore, the one Anna had given her. "I think things are really, really right."

Anna ran her hands up Alexandra's arms, then rested her palms on her shoulders, before giving her a gentle push. Alexandra backed up, pressing into the wall behind her, and Anna took a moment to gauge her reaction.

The two of them often hugged and occasionally held hands, so physical intimacy wasn't foreign to them. But this time was different, and Alexandra had clearly noticed that. Her face was now slightly flush, her expression a mix of shock and wonder. She said nothing, but gently nodded, and Anna stepped forward to close the space between them.

Anna leaned in close, resting her head against Alexandra's collar, and wrapped her arms around her best friend. She breathed in deep. Alexandra smelled like shampoo, and laundry soap, and just a hint of smoke and sulfur, probably from some hex or curse, or maybe an accident in her Potions class. Nothing that could be considered 'girly', though Anna didn't mind - she loved that about Alex. Alexandra hugged her back, tightly.

Anna pulled away, just a little, so she could look up into Alexandra's eyes. They seemed to shimmer and spark sometimes, Anna thought, shining like emeralds. Right then, they seemed to glow in the magical light from the lanterns around them. Hesitantly, Anna reached up to cup Alexandra's face, as if she were afraid she'd scare her away. When Alexandra leaned into the touch, Anna swiped her thumb over her cheek.

"Anna..." Alexandra breathed, and it was all she could manage. For once, Anna had left her speechless, not the other way around.

Anna raised up onto her toes and tilted her chin to bring her face up to Alexandra's. Their lips brushed together as she spoke.

"I love you, Alex."

This vote felt rigged. 😐 And no, it's not because Chu Yao's not here, just hear me out for a minute:

I think the devs knew Anna was going to win: back when shimmer reverb happened, many people chose her,(and Ikki wasn't out/that popular yet) and people are most likely voting based on kit and how she does in fights, NOT how much they actually like the character. I bet people don't even care about her lore💀

This is reminding me of the Embla vs. Ethan vote back when that was a thing.....the devs can already predict who's more popular with the fandom, they make stuff for them ahead of time, and then they give us the illusion that we have control when we actually don't 💀 How else did she get a 3D trailer and all kinds of shit so soon after the results were announced?

Watch the song they'll make for Anna come out right after voting.....if that doesn't scream rigged, then I don't know what to tell you.

Don't trust the devs. Or any voting event, for that matter. Just another frustration to add to the long list of "Things the Dislyte devs keep fucking up"

Sorry for the vent, but I hate this game's voting-related events. They never feel genuine.

But that's ok. I'll just do my thing and draw Chu Yao, to me he won.

Alexandra and Anna (and their familiars), from the Alexandra Quick series of books/fanfics. Just finished rereading them, and got a strong urge to draw these very good goobers.

I know it's probably silly, but ngl I'm a teensy bit nervous about posting this one, since it is *technically* Harry Potter related, and I am, in fact, a trans person. But at least to my knowledge, the author of AQ hasn't publicly stated that I shouldn't exist, soooooo

Highly recommend checking these books out if you're looking for something to scratch that "magical school" itch! I think they do a much better job with the setting than the source material.

also I'm totally gonna draw these two kissing because they don't get together in the books and I'm upset about it lol

Where California politicians stand on Palestine

The majority of Democrats in DC, despite their voter base being overwhelmingly in support of a ceasefire, refuse to disavow the genocide in Gaza or call for ceasefire.

They are able to do this, to disregard the outrage of their constituency, because they feel certain that no matter how many letters we send, we will show up and vote for them when the time comes. They are certain their actions have no consequences.

Senator Alex Padilla received about $31k from Israeli lobby groups. He refuses to call for a ceasefire. This was his going rate to enable genocide.

Senator Laphonza Butler was appointed in Oct 2023 after the death of Diane Feinstein, who was pro-Israel. No campaign finance info on file. She refuses to call for a ceasefire. Perhaps she's waiting for her payout.

12/52 California congressional representatives are Republicans. None have called for ceasefire. Palestinian genocide is core to the Republican platform.

Of the 40 Democrat representatives, only 11 have called for ceasefire. The following CA Democrat representatives have called for ceasefire. They were not swayed by money received from Israeli lobby groups.

Jared Huffman, 2 - not swayed by $1k from Israeli lobby groups this election cycle, down from 13.5k and 9.5k in the last two

John Garamendi, 8 - not swayed by $500 whole dollars from Israeli lobby groups, down from 5k and 15k

Mark Desaulnier, 10 - not swayed by $1k, down from 4k and 4.5k

Barbara Lee, 12 - not swayed by $13.5k, down from 27k and just 4k in 2020

Ro Khanna, 17 - not swayed by $12k, down from 45.5k and 23k

Judy Chu, 28 - not swayed by $1k, down from 7k and 10.5k

Tony Cardenas, 29 - not swayed by 35k, down from 70k and 38.5k

Jimmy Gomez, 34 - received nothing this cycle or 2020, not swayed by the $13.5k Israeli lobby groups gave in 2022

Robert Garcia, 42 - has received nothing from Israeli lobby groups since taking office in 2023

Maxine Waters, 43 - has received nothing from Israeli lobby groups in the past 3 election cycles

Sara Jacobs, 51 - not swayed by $9k, down from $26.5k in her first election cycle

The following CA Democrat representatives have refused to call for ceasefire. The approximate amount they've received from Israeli lobby groups since 2019 (the price it cost to buy their endorsement of genocide) is after each name and district number.

Mike Thompson, 4 (24k); Ami Bera, 6 (46.5k); Doris Matsui, 7 (9k); Josh Harder, 9 (159k); Nancy Pelosi, 11 (92.5k); Eric Swalwell, 14 (54.5k); Kevin Mullin, 15 (0 - 19-22 data missing); Anna Eshoo, 16 (34.5k); Zoe Lofgren, 18 (22k); Jimmy Panetta, 19 (14k); Jim Costa, 21 (127k); Salud Carbajal, 24 (27k); Raul Ruiz, 25 (24.5k); Julia Brownley, 26 (47.5k); Adam Schiff, 30 (205.5k); Grace Napolitano, 31 (8k); Brad Sherman, 32 (132k); Pete Aguilar, 33 (315.5k); Norma Torres, 35 (14.5k); Ted Lieu, 36 (122k); Sydney Kamlager, 37 (15.5k - 22 data missing); Linda Sanchez, 38 (36.5k); Mark Takano, 39 (17k); Nanette Barragan, 44 (69.5k); Lou Carrera, 46 (12.5k); Katie Porter, 47 (152.5k); Mike Levin, 49 (143k); Scott Peters, 50 (34k); Juan Vargas, 52; (208.5k)

The Republicans will be trash regardless, but we cannot let our Democrats skate by thinking there are no consequences for supporting a genocide. They are slaughtering people with your tax dollars, Americans. It's time to get serious. It's time to tell these people that they cannot have our votes for free. It's time to start talking about primary opposition and third party voting. It's time to start exercising our power as voting citizens.

I've enjoyed a couple songs from this Ivana Wong 王菀之 concert, I hope she uploads the full show! =D

The band is outstanding, and Ivana is in great form. This opening number is a jazzy rocker, kinda gives me a Shiina Ringo vibe. This was from a series of July shows at The Box, Freespace, West Kowloon 西九文化區自由空間大盒劇場
