Coffee shop AUs redefine escapism from wild fantasies about dragons and space travel to the comforting ideal of having a steady job and supportive relationships.
 
For a generation who came of age during the Great Recession, living in a time of constant political trauma, it’s not hard to understand the appeal.

How coffee shop romance became fanfic’s hottest genre

(via dailydot)

This article features fanart by @sheepskeleton of the coffee shop AU that @wicked-felina and I wrote!

The fic is called Signature Blend, and there are additional chapters called the Last Drop.

I will add more characters when…I actually start drawing them and have an idea of how I imagine their colors. This is the color pallet I imagined for the boys (and kind of how their hands look, but not exactly)

superhiki:

Younger-ish Marius and typical nightmare age Lestat.
This is my attempt at drawing two white blond men without suffering same-face too much. I will say, in my present style for both Marius and Lestat they have similar noses and lips already. But compare them to how I draw Armand, Daniel, or Nicki and hopefully the effect is more pronounced.

Before I even read the caption I was thinking Wow this is a great comparison of the way similar looking characters can each be uniquely defined in subtle ways… and that’s exactly what you were aiming for, so kudos to you!
