last year we did cheesy v day cards, and this year, the lover girl main characters from my books get to feature in their very own simp exposé! 💋

my girls are down bad for 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 their 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 girls, so it only makes sense that i highlight the love languages + actions i think best match!
Square cropped character art, commissioned by @emparkerart. The characters are highlighted in the foreground and the background has an applied motion blur. There is white blocky text in the top left hand corner that reads "when her love language is acts of service so you expose yourself to the scrutiny of stan twt just to be on the same dating show as her" and there is an orange circular graphic sat behind the words "acts of service". Square cropped character art, commissioned by @gildedruin. The characters are highlighted in the foreground and the background has an applied motion blur. There is white blocky text in the bottom right hand corner that reads "when her love language is quality time so you risk your life to unravel timelines to free her from an ancient curse" and there is a light brown circular graphic sat behind the words "quality time". Square cropped character art, commissioned by @or.molu. The characters are highlighted in the foreground and the background has an applied motion blur. There is white blocky text in the top right hand corner that reads "when her love language is physical touch so you choreograph a whole duet routine whilst trying to convince everyone else that you're actually rivals" and there is a red circular graphic sat behind the words "physical touch". Square cropped character art, commissioned by @_milirine_. The characters are highlighted in the foreground and the background has an applied motion blur. There is white blocky text in the top right hand corner that reads "when her love language is words of affirmation so you talk about her like" and there is a blue circular graphic sat behind the words "words of affirmation". Below this chunk of text is a quote from the novel, THOSE WHO BURN THE BRIGHTEST, placed against a larger blue graphic. It reads "Eira could only picture Meilin to be the sun she took a bite of to swallow, to keep that little bit of brightness to herself—selfishly so. She was paying the price, for the sun belonged to no one and nothing but the sky—and it had been foolish of Eira to try and snatch that part for her own safekeeping."

A graphic with three rows of three images, overlayed with character art. All background images are from Pexels. The top row, left to right, depicts a cloud-covered mountain top, a foggy forest and a person holding a sword. The middle row, left to right, has an array of lit candles and a blade wrapped in red silk. The bottom row, left to right, shows the outside of a castle and two women embracing. The overlaying character art obstructs some of the images and a dark-haired woman is shown holding a dagger to the throat of the taller, red-haired woman who is smiling down at her. White, cursive text to the left of the graphic reads 'THOSE WHO BURN THE BRIGHTEST' and, underneath that, '138 DAYS LEFT'. There is imagery of pressed flowers and light leaks also included on the graphic. Character art by @morrieechan_ on twt.
