Description
Dan's fading away. Rorschach hangs on.Fanart for the brilliantly-written and haunting "Gently at Twilight, Go Gently at Dawn" from the kinkmeme. [link]

He feels fine, physically. It's how he looks is the problem. He's pale. Not 'barely enough sleep' pale – there are no dark shadows beneath his eyes (well, no worse than usual), no drawn features or heavy eyelids. Not 'sick' pale – he's not clammy or pallid. He's just very, very...
He checks his neck for twin puncture marks, then chastises himself for being so ridiculous (but only when he doesn't find any).
Rorschach notices immediately. "Feeling well, Daniel?" he asks.
"Fine," Dan replies, and wonders who he's trying to reassure.

GO READ IT NOW. [link] [link] [link] !
Dan is checking for puncture marks, in case it's not clear what his right hand is up to. First time drawing Rorschach... well... as Rorschach. Complete with mask and hat. (yay milestone!) There's a face under there, actually, all sketched out... maybe I'll do a maskless version at a later point.

"R-Rorschach, I've noticed a few strange things about you"
"Hurm?"
"your costume never shows any skin, you-you seem to shun human contact, your inhuman way of dealing with criminals...and your bathing habits...it's like you're up all night."
"your point Daniel?"
"I-I don't think you're human. I think you're a..."
"say it"
"vampire!"
"For the more socailly acceptable one of us, Daniel...you really disturb me sometimes..."

You know, I've always wondered whether it's better to leave an uncontructive, "holy crap I love this so much" comment, or say nothing at all, keeping all my incoherent admiration bottled up inside.
What would you prefer?
(By the way, holy crap I love this so much. Dan's expression makes me bawwwww. ;-

NO PLEASE KEEP YOUR HANDS AND LEGS AND FEELINGS INSIDE THE VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES
um. what kind of a question is that. the only thing better than actually enjoying the act of drawing and the characters that i'm drawing is the fact that there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow in the form of all kinds of feedback. And who am I kidding, squeeful feedback makes ME squee.
When I draw I actually "emote" the emotion of the character-in-question to help me understand their facial construction better... when I was drawing Dan, my sister came over and asked me if everything was okay because I looked like I was about to cry. LOL.

Well that's good then - now I can squee over you without feeling guilty. xD
DUDE. I do the same thing. xD I guess it's all part of "getting into character"? haha

Author-anon is so spoiled, getting two pieces of fanart from you in as many days
This is really great - Dan looks so worried (and he's checking for bite marks!), and Ror's body language is all 'don't leave me D:'. There's a tension there that's so very them.
Thank you so much!
And again, can I put this along with the story? I'm juuust about to post a slightly edited version over in steals_thyme

(now I am slightly scared to draw moar stuff for you, oh high priestess of D/R fanart. but of course if the mood strikes i can't say my hand won't take on a life of its own and spam you...)
And yes of COURSE you can put it with your story! *FLATTERED* I'm ecstatic that you like it enough to feature it! <3 <3

Oh god don't be, the last thing I want is to intimidate people. Seriously, I get just as flaily and
(hehe, sorry I thought you knew, since you'd friended both, and I get schizophrenic over which one I reply with on the kinkmeme/etherati's journal all the time :d)
