“In their old age the roles had reversed, and Patience had lovingly tended her failing ‘serving woman’ to the end of her days.”

Hello! While your WIP folders are bountiful and tickle my curiosity, I HAVE to ask you about the Pacey one. What have you envisioned for it? How was the idea born? I just love Patience, and her very scary bodygu-- hmhm maidservant-turned-lifelong-*friend*

Hi! Ah thanks for the interest!

I adore Patience and Lacey and thought they stole the show every time they were on page. I guess this idea came about when I was thinking about what the early days at Buckkeep must have been like for them (Post-Chivalry, mid-AA) and thinking about how their relationship would have grown during that time. The comic I have a planned is just a small moment between them, where Lacey slips and says "My Love" instead of her customary "My Lady." It's fun thinking how they'd both react and I love a good noble/bodyguard dynamic.

Here's a little sketch:

I headcanon that Patience is a HUGE flirt and Lacey is extremely affected by it <3

Sketches/illustrations based on some of my (many) favorite scenes from @tragediegh's amazing fic Of Cats and Closed Doors. In order: Beloved accepting Fitz's hand for a dance from chapter 17, Beloved teasing Fitz from chapter 28, and Patience and Lacey from chapter 31.

Even when I'm painfully going through the Rainwild chronicles I'm still thinking of the Farseer family. This time it's Patience and Chivalry. When I was drawing Chivalry, I was very confused because of how young looking he is and then I remembered that he died at the age of 26 or smth. So yeah, I left him like it, looking younger than his own son. And Patience, well, she's just Patience. She came out actually pretty close to what I had in my head.

Also I love the parallels between Chivalry and Patience romance and Fitz and Fool romance, cuz like both have an unstable, emotionally unavailable, devoted to his kingdom Farseer and the other one, who's a quirky, weird and sunny person, that just tries to support their beloved.

Fitz's mommy issues make me so sad. When he very carefully doesn't think about his real mother at all, even though she was there when his grandfather took him to buckkeep. Even though she called out "keppet" in the marketplace. When he says patience was only like an aunt and not a mother. When he says "he took me away from her. I was much too young to be gone from her" then burritch realises that is nighteye's memory. When he almost cries when dutiful tells him patience called him "son", that she still mourns him. When he gets jealous when nettle is telling thick she won't let anything harm him. When he finally calls patience "mother" at the end of tawny man. She must have wanted that for so long, this woman who could never have a child of her own. I was so happy he got to spend some good years with her, as a mother and son before fool's assassin

Thinking about Patience Farseer makes me literally ill. You would think she'd be the one that hates Fitz, the bastrad son of her husband, the most but she was likley the only adult that loved him unconditionally. Like she actually cared for him and saw him as her son and she loved him so much and sge fought for him and she insisted hed be burried whole WHICH LITERALLY SAVED HIM and she thought he was dead for 16 years!!!!!!! Her son!!!!!! Her son which she loved so much and cared for so much and!!!! And shes just the best ok. And then he returned!!! He called her "mother"!!!! SHES HIS MOM

something about Patience and Lacey growing old together makes me very emotional OK

Can't listen to Garden Song by Phoebe Bridgers without thinking of Patience

Sunlight Garden

This fanart was made by Cornichonrond for Heart_of_gold_ass_of_dumb and can be found on AO3.

This piece shows Patience and Lacey in a sunlit meadow, and it is so incredibly lovely 😭😭😭 The character designs are really spot on (down to Patience’s tattoos) and the soft colour palette really adds to the calm and tender atmosphere. We even got some extra sketches that will definitely put a smile on your face :)

Thank you so much for taking part in our event, and for drawing these sweet (and very much in love) old ladies ♥
