You're home. With me.by *misi-chan

“It’s OK”, I tell him, moving closer, wary in case the nightmare suddenly fires up again. “You’re home. With me. Lord Loss can’t get you here. Your eyes are fine. It was just a nightmare.”

“Grubbs?” Dervish wheezes.

“Yes, boss.”

“That’s really you? You’re not an illusion? He hasn’t created an image of you, to torment me?”

“Don’t be stupid. Not even Michelangelo could sculpt a face this perfect.”

Dervish smiles. The last of the nightmare passes. He sits on the floor and looks at me through watery globes. “How you doing, big guy?”

“Coolio.”

“Did I hurt you?” he asks quietly.

“You couldn’t if you tried,” I smirk, not telling him about the hit to the head, the hand on my throat, the foot at my face.

I sit beside him. Drape an arm around his shoulders. He hugs me tight. Murmurs, “It was so real. I thought I was back there. I…”

And then he weeps, sobbing like a child. And I hold him, talking softly as the moon descends, telling him it’s OK, he’s home, he’s safe - he’s no longer in the universe of demons.

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

A little sketch of a scene from Slawter, by Darren Shan. It wouldn't leave my head, so I gave it a try.
The relationship between Grubbs and Dervish is so touching, IMO. I love how much they care for each other, how loyal they are to each other. There's something about how Darren writes father figures that moves me.
Dervish has been my fav character since Lord Loss and seeing him scared and crying is horrible. Even more because he's a badass, a funny, clever man.
Let me love you, Dervish ;u;

Really like this drawing, it shows the human side of Dervish, the man who was broken down by tragedy after tragedy, loss after loss

Aww, the expression! D:

I want to read the series but I can never find the first book in my library... I remember I used to love Cirque du Freak.

^^
Well, the books are genius! So I hope you can read them. They're definitely not in my country and not in my language, so I'm buying them from here, if it's of any help: [link]

Ah, Cirque du Freak is awesome. And Mr.Crepsley is made of love <333

_{(How you doing? It's been soooo long! Hope everything's going well. I'm trying to go back here to dA but I'm taking my time xD)}

*shaydh Feb 19, 2012 Digital Artist

I might look for them online, but I don't have much time for reading while I'm at school. XD Maybe over the summer!

Yes, it is! XD Nostalgia from middle school...

I'm fine! Pretty busy though. I have way too many deviations to go through... D: And trying to answer all the comments. XD What about you?

~priincezzz Feb 10, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Iba a comentar en inglés pero vi que hablas español así que pus mejor así xD

(Aparte que akjbkfbksdf una fan de Darren Shan en español akjsbakfd no estoy sola kjdbsfk)

ESTO ES PERFECTO. Todo lo que Darren Shan escribe es ORO, y tienes mucha razón, las figuras paternas son tan akjlnjhfbksdjfk, por eso duele tanto cuando las pierden (Larteeeen ;___; jhdbsbfkjsd) o con Grubbs en Lord Loss ;__; ¿en qué libro vas? Para no echarte a perder la saga

Yo estaba leyendo Demonata y muchísima gente me recomendó The Thin Executioner (en donde está otra figura paterna... Tel Hesaniiiiii aaah all the feelings akbjabfvjks) ASÍ QUE YO TE LO RECOMIENDO. Es un libro FANTÁSTICO. Hasta el mismo Darren dijo que es su favorito de los que ha escrito. Simplemente genial ajkdsfkljfkds.

Yo aún tengo que ponerme al corriente con la saga de Larten, pero oh Dios, que Darren Shan escribe puras cosas geniales. Esta escena en Slawter es tan aksjakjfbksd y la forma en la que la capturaste me tocó :')

Muy muy buen trabajo xD

Jajaja, ya ves, una fan de Darren Shan en español, somos una especie en peligro de extinción xD Visita a

, tiene muchísimas cosas de Darren Shan en su galería y también es española

Pues de la Demonata he leído los cuatro primeros libros, vamos, he acabado Bec (con una depresión xD), y en cuanto tenga dinero me compraré los dos siguientes x3 También me han hablado muy bien de The Thin Executioner, así que está en mi lista, tarde o temprano le pondré las manos encima

Muchísimas gracias ^^ la verdad es que me gusta muchísimo cómo escribe las figuras paternas y cómo suelen demostrar afecto sus personajes, y salen estas cosas ^^

Even in death may you be triumphant <3

~priincezzz Feb 12, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

NO ESTOY SOLA ;__;!

Sí, las figuras paternas son tan ajsdbkfsbkfkb de hecho todos los malditos personajes los hace tan bien, son tan reales que hasta da miedo D: ajkdksbkf haha xD aparte me gusta que los "malos" tienen un muy buen fundamento y son geniales y perfectos y ahh ajkndshbskfds (Steve es mi personaje favorito D': sigh).

Y POR FAVOR LEE THE THIN EXECUTIONER. Es fantástico. Eso sí, está ENORME, pero vale mucho la pena :3
