“Henry,” says Alex.
“Alex,” says Henry.
“You and me,” Alex says.
“You and me,” Henry agrees.
- Bonus Chapter of RED WHITE & ROYAL BLUE by Casey McQuiston
It felt fitting for my last fanart of 2022 to honor one of the absolute highlights of my year, drawing endpapers for the RWRB Collector’s Edition. This scene was such a beautiful, fitting conclusion to their story, and I WEPT when I read it. I will never not feel overwhelmed with gratitude when I think of this book and its impact on my life, and I can only imagine what loveliness awaits us in 2023 when the movie is released.
If you and yours are celebrating this week, know that I am wishing you the happiest of holidays and a beautiful and bright New Year! Thank you for being here, and I can’t wait to share more art with you in 2023! 🎉

I need people to understand that Commander Cody is not a top, he is a bottom. I always see fics portraying him as a top. nope. he’s also a bratty bottom GOOD DAY!
Andrew Minyard is demiromantic.
I rest my case.
destroyed by Commander Cody and how he had a mind control chip in his brain and yet he stayed soft. he lost every single thing that ever mattered to him in one fell swoop and he didn’t stop caring about his brothers or the citizens he’s supposed to protect.
he thinks he did Order 66 on purpose and he still chooses every single day to be a good person and to be better than that because that’s who he is. he’s good to the bone and he always has been and always will be. no matter what. it’s his core trait. and nothing can take that away no matter how hard someone tries. i’m in pain
i was thinking about how Edgy™ andrew is from neil's pov but so many fans have realized he is really just a gay traumatized emo kid
so i have decided that andrew is definitely very active on twitter and has a substantial following. he mainly posts about his stupid little boyfriend, horrific food combinations, jokes about therapy, and random gay thoughts
none of the foxes knew he had twitter (except for his stupid boyfriend) so when his PR agent got on his back about being active on social medie he just changed his twitter handle to his name and that's how he came out
allison feels betrayed because she had been following andrew for almost as long as he'd been twittering and is horrified that she actually thinks andrew is a funny person
Senior Year things to appreciate apart from Gilderoy (who I think we've been doing plenty of well deserved appreciating this week):
Brian Holden as Hagrid - so fucking funny, I remember squealing my absolute head off the first time I saw this bit. I completely understand why Darren is just creasing throughout the whole scene.
The way that learning about Voldemorts backstory isn't necessary to appreciate his plot in AVPM but when you know it it adds so many more layers. Starkid literally said Voldemort is like that because of homophobic parents and we were like fuck me up fam.
This has already been discussed at length but obviously the last scene. "I hope you find that swimming pool". Albus Scarfy Potter. Quirrelmort. Wang Mu. Okay is wonderful. All of it.
Tyler as McGonnagall - seriously what can't that man play?? He embodies her.
YOU GOTTA GO HOME, YOU GOTTA GO HOME - you know what I'm on about
Jeff Blim's vocals in Get in My Mouth. Also would recommend looking up Nick Strauss' cover from a Leaky Con in I think 2013. It's on YouTube and it's fucking incredible.
I Was and Tonight This School is Mine are both complete bangers and the fact that they're still audiably bangers even with the microphone issues says a lot. The fucking poetry in I was, and the fucking sass in ttsim
The many layers of Always Dance. The beautiful bit at the start with Dylan, then the fucking dance off between Voldemort and Lucius which is everything and finally the evil last verse when he's waltzing with Ginny
Sidekick.
Joey Richter's actual real ass human tears that he manages to squeeze out
Everything Ends continual ability to make me bawl like a baby. Goddam you Brosenthal why is your voice so good.
"I think we FOUND each other". It should be illegal for a line so funny to come in the middle of a scene so emotional. I distinctly remember when I watched it as a teenager having to pause to howl with laughter (tigerfucker and Santa Claus is going to high school are the only other scenes I remember having to do that for on first watch). Lilly divorcng James in heaven and remarrying Cedric is just an inspired concept
Evana Lynch smoking a fag - it was really cool that they became big enough to get an actual Harry potter actor in the show but just watching her smoking while washing blood off her hands made it so worth
The fact that AJs commitment to being in both the band and the cast means there are so many moments where the camera pans across and it's just oh look there's Gilderoy Lockhart just casually playing keyboard with Clark
The death day party scene - Ron and Lavenders date, Harry and Cho's date and then Seamus and Dean's double date with Ginny all 3 of them fucking hysterical. Also the bit with the ice sculpture and the roller skates
Brant Cox - he has like 5 lines in this play but they're the funniest 5 lines
All of the boo boos - most specifically 'fuck the tie' and 'a floating diary? Ah shit'
"sssssnake ssssnake I'm a snake where are my arms gone, only kidding I'm a ssssnake"
"sparkles, sparkles, I'm gay!" ~ Lord Voldemort
"I drew a majestic owl" - watching the SK10 livestreams and apparantly this comes from when they were doing a 24 hour story writing thing (a Hackathon for humanities students??) and Jim got bored really early on so spent most of the time drawing a realistic owl
And finally that it actually happened in the first place because I remember how initially it was going to be right after the sequel but then everything got thrown into disarray, and it kept getting pushed back. But thanks to us being absolute impatient assholes who commented 'give us threequel' every time they so much as breathed on social media we got it and it was wonderful!
Dear Filoni,
If we, as a community, are not aware of Cody and his wellbeing by Wednesday, we will raid your house and beat you with sticks. This is not a threat, but a promise.
Sincerely, me and many others
"Commander Cody is a bottom,” I say into the mic.
The crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.
"She's right," they say. I look for the owner of the voice. There in the 2nd row stands: Commander Cody.
