Artist's Comments

Young Munstrum Ridcully and Esmerelda Weatherwax. I thought the affair between them more-than-eluded-to in Lords and Ladies was too damn adorable.

So here's Ridcully, all football-player like hoping for some "smoochy-shmoos" and Esme's like, "oh I know what you want and yer not gittin it." aw.

Characters from Discworld, property of Terry Pratchett.

EDIT: HAI GUYZ--in lords and ladies, young Esme is ESSENTIALLY magrat. She's got flowers entwined in her hair, it's a summer fling, she actually had feelings for Ridcully--but as you can see, I definately hold respect for Granny Weatherwax's pride--she's not *leaning* into Ridcully, it's not a slash piece. Terry Pratchett has the excellent writing skillz to extrapolate information. I was lead to believe that Granny's proud, restrained, and traditional witchness came after she crossed paths with the Elves.
But whatever. So the "blasphemous" comments are uniformed. That's all I'm sayin'. Done.

Adorable. :D I love how young Esme is still a bit into the "Magrat" style with all those flowers and stuff.

Oh My God that's EXACTLY how I saw young Esme, the face,the body,the expression,everything!...Well except for the flowers in her hair, but that just makes her look cuter. I've always related myself to Esme - I was always the one who knew there must be some skin under all my layers of clothes but I don't have to approve that fact, all being supercold and supermoral when it comes to the issues of love and relationships, but still coming across it somehow... Heh,I dunno,I just love Esme and your interpretation.

pretty much AMAZING, although Ridcully's quite frighteningly attractive. I'm completely in love with your Esme, though; she's gorgeous.

Flowers in her hair and a smile on her face? Ridiculously blasphemous. Faved, so that I can look at it and SCOFF at it loudly every time I see it.

Flowers!

I just can't imagine Esme with such clothing. I think she would be wearing something simple yet beautiful.
but otherwise it's really great!
