Too Many Sketches Not Enough Time

Why do I always sketch in pink? who knows

Hugs from behind, my beloved

Couldn’t decide on a background so I’m posting both!

LOOK AT HIS EYES. LOOK AT THE MIXTURE OF HURT, AND FEAR, AND SADNESS IN HIS EYES. HE IS VULNERABLE. HE IS MAD THAT HIS DEATH WAS "AN ACT OF GOD". HE IS MAD THAT NO ONE REMEMBERS HIM OR CHARLES. HE IS SCARED OF WHAT CRYSTAL IS DOING TO THEIR RELATIONSHIP. HE FEELS HELPLESS THAT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW HANDLE A WITCH AND HE FEELS INCOMPETENT. AND IF HES INCOMPETENT, THAN HE CANT HELP OTHERS. HE WILL BLAME HIMSELF FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S UNSOLVED CASES/UNFINISHED BUISINESS.

And as we know this roots back to the fear of Hell.

If he can't help others, then he has nothing to argue about being sent back to Hell. And he's terrified of Hell. That is when he felt the most helpless and vulnerable. That pit in his gut is the most painful thing in the world to him.

In the OFFICIAL character sheet in the omnibus, it says:

The base ESSENCE of Edwin's whole character is that he wants to be safe. But he's in an uncomfortable, unfamiliar place (America), with an uncomfortable, unfamiliar person (Crystal), on an uncomfortable, unfamiliar case (witch). This is scaring him and he doesn't know what to do!

AGH IT FUCKING KILLS ME. EDWIN YOUR EYES KILL ME
