Day 14: Predator/Predator

"During the rebels feast, Shay and Tally escape into the privacy of the prairie to give in to their instincts"

They were compared to wolves too often to not use this

Found another fridge horror: Shay canonically choose how she looks as a Special - but forces Tally back for surgery, so Tally doesn't.

So either Dr. Cable chose, or Shay. Shay would be both darkly romantic and absolutely disturbing...

Saw a woman wearing this outfit and thought about Shay starting to remember her old self, starting to dress just the slightest bit more like herself, but before she starts spiraling

During Shays Special Surgery, she sees different ways her and Tally could have encountered each other.

Happy birthday Tally and Shay (well, in around 300 years...)

Headcanon that not until their 18th birthday they actually celebrate together. 16th obviously bc events of the book, and 17th they still need to process and heal

Refreshing (and relatable) about Tallys bad social skills is that she's able to start new relationships, romantically successful and even charismatic - but she is incapable of upholding them long term, and she is incredibly bad at understanding peoples motives

Perk of being a rebel mostly hiding outside the cities: Really idyllic places to make out

Of course I had to do one for Tally too. Clothing swap the third. Adaptation design and my pre-movie design

How peaceful they are. I love this, even beyond my OTP being cute. Maybe it's because their scars and angular faces and warriors bodies, but they're resting instead.

(Tally/Shay post-canon, my pre-movie design)

Had a blast doing that "Old Romance Novel Cover" trend.

Briefly thought about doing some of their other identities, but then realized that having two rather masculine female super soldiers doing these very gendered poses would be the most interesting

"In a foreign city, Tally finally manages to get over her fear to fully be intimate with Shay. Neither of them, with their bodies and brains modified to be weapons, expected it to feel so.. loving"

Seeing each other again.

Don't tell me that doesn't look romantic

Realized we never got to see Pretty!Shay and Pretty!Tally in one frame or even just interact in the adaptation, and damn do I wish we had

Found the idea of a battle-thrashed super soldier in idyllic nature fascinating.

Something something Tally creating this promising new future but never truly being able to escape the regime that turned her into a weapon

Thinking about how in the book, Tally and Shay seemingly cuddled so frequently, including falling asleep cuddled against each other, that after Shays surgery Tally could do a whole list of details that felt differently

The good thing about them being super soldiers is that I can draw so many slightly too homoerotic trainings fights

Wanted to draw Tally and Shay in uniform (+bonus Fausto)

Of course Shay would do the Ensign Mariner sleeve thing

She is not even canonically bi (and the cowards also didn't change that in the adaptation), but wow did I see myself in Tally Youngbloods messy, insecure relationships, even before I admitted to myself I am queer.

Realized I apparently had never drawn them on their movie design hoverboards and had to change that

Little headcanon that for them, since they wouldn't want to waste backpack space by carrying around a strap-on, that is a luxury thing they do whenever they are in one of the cities. Of course Shay would top
