Hey there, I’ve made some fan art for DrawingWiffWaffles of her witch sisters, Sage and Hyacinth! She shared a deeply emotional story about them on YouTube that spoke about coping with grief, and that really resonated with me. Please check out the videos if you haven’t already!

As far as I’m aware the story does not have a name, I just made one up for the sake of this poster-esque composition, so it is by no means official! I just thought it would add a bit of irony given that the cat’s “advice” was far from sage in the end, though admittedly it might be a bit too punny for the more serious subject matter. ^^’ I haven’t done a fully black-and-white piece in a long time, but I’m quite proud of this (and I’m a sucker for any kind of star imagery lol)!

Rin, if you’re reading this, I’d like to thank you not only for the inspiration now and over the years, but for sharing this incredibly personal story with us. It takes a lot of courage to express something like this with such vulnerability, even if you aren’t specific about the sources that inspired it. Grief is something that never truly leaves you, but the burden to carry it will get lighter with time. From one stranger to another, I hope that what you’re going through will make way for better things to come as soon as possible. <3
