Description
You were so proud, Jareth. But the right one will bring you to your knees.Like a mystery of Harris Burdick, I'm going to leave the story up to you.
Like a million years ago, when I was coming up on 500,000 pageviews, I took a poll to see which fandom I should service for my thank-you drawing. Labyrinth won out, which was kind of a surprise. I started this one but just couldn't make it work. I kept picking it up and tossing it aside for months. Well, I recently hit 600K, so I thought I should get off my can and finish this. And you know, it turned out really nicely, I think. I'm really satisfied with it. One of those rare examples of something turning out exactly the way I saw it in my head.
God, I miss the snow.
Some beautiful short stories, inspired by this drawing:
+ To Forgive Is Divine by Lady-Cobweb
+ Sea Whispers by crimsonspiral
+ Forgiveness by Chamaelirium
+ The New Year by greeneyesandglasses
materials: pencil on bristol
music: David Gray, "Flame Turns Blue"

there is a song by David Bowie which channels the Goblin King- it's about how he sees Sarah walking through the snow a few years later and says "I would be your slave"
