May I present my most oddly specific quiz to date
“I dream with my eyes open.” ― Jules Verne, Journey to the Center of the Earth
I am currently reading this book. I am surprised (in a good way). Also I like illustrations...
Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Kilian Eng
Hello tkluts people, a thought has appeared…
Conseil is a Flemish man in the mid 1860s working for a French Academic. He is said to be in his 30s meaning he was born in the 1830s and I’ve been researching some 1800s Belgium history rendering me very very suspicious of Pierre.
Idk, anyone else think about this?
The homoeroticism when you tell a man that you'll follow him wherever he goes after only knowing him for 4 months (the weirdly indepth and lengthy conversations about the technical ins and outs of the Nautilus is foreplay)
Finally, I've made a full-fledged art with this heroine, so now I'm posting it for public access. Those who have read the original novel "Around the World in 80 Days" know that, in addition to Phileas Fogg and Jean Passepartout, there is a heroine called Aouda - a Hindu woman whom the main characters saved from sati - a funeral ritual in which a widow is burned with her deceased husband, and together with them she travels to London, and in the end she even becomes Fogg's wife.
While reading this book, I didn't like Fogg, but I loved Passepartout with all my heart, as well as the relationship between him and Aouda, even though I understood that in the end she would end up with the phlegmatic Englishman (and the Frenchman himself, if my memory serves me right, turned out to be a confirmed bachelor). But I didn't stop shipping them. However, remembering the 1972 cartoon series, I immediately realized: Here it is! A chance to realize my pairing!
For those who don't know, this animated series is very different from the original, especially the main reason for the round-the-world bet: here Phileas Fogg agrees to travel for 80 days for the hand and heart of the rich Lord Maze's niece Belinda, that is, there is no trace of Aouda, and her role is occupied by a completely original, but very charming character. And then I decided, why not squeeze a young Indian woman into this setting and bring her together with Passepartout? The meeting between them will be the same as in the book, but:
1) Sati might be worth replacing with a regular sacrifice
2) If there was an episode with her, then Aouda would be a purely episodic character and at the end of the episode she would calmly leave alone to her relatives in Hong Kong, but at the end of the story she would still come to England on business, and at the same time she would meet our heroes again.
Yeah, in fact, I just adapted it to bring it together with Passepartout, but she has already managed to sink into my soul, so don’t blame me.
If you are not familiar with the animated series one or two right away, watch the intro: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyceRy…

I very much regret that I decided to draw them in the style of paper dolls. However, I am quite happy with their faces. Give me strength, patience and support to finish them ...
