Cover art continues

With a new week, I have a new story banner from sroni, this one for “Come to My Window” (now more than fifteen years old):

I love that banner!

Very cool. :)

The things I get under sroni’s name really do suit my preferences for story art: stylish, sometimes only distantly representative of the story itself but never entirely irrelevant, and … well, nice-looking. This one pretty much meets those specs, and I’m satisfied.

I won’t be sending it back, that’s for sure.

Nicely done, as usual. I think I remember that fic... maybe from the first (only?) rewrite round I did? Anyway, lovely banner.

You are, indeed, correct. And, checking, I see that your remix of that story got quite a bit less feedback than it deserved. Maybe people were still learning remix etiquette back then — it was only the second round — but that’s still an unrectified injustice.

Including me (learning remix). It's fine. Your stories and OCs are always so complex and interesting, I'm just happy I was able to come up with something. :)

Thanks. Of course, technically neither Sheila nor Tana is an OC (Tana is the name I gave the ‘Asian Cordette’ who appeared only in “the Wish”), but I’ve done more with both characters than the show ever did, so I have to accept some responsibility for how they present. I’m not dissatisfied at this point, and nobody else has complained too much, either, so I’ll count that as a win.

True, but when you take a very minor or background character and give them life, I call that an OC. :)

I agree with that. "Asian Cordette" isn't a character, that's a plot device. Cannon (canon - heh) fodder.

sroni's banner is lovely!

Hey, Nicole Bilderback had a speaking role there, even if her character wasn’t favored with an official name.

And, yes, the banner does strike me as apropos to the story, and aesthetically pleasing as well.
