Hi, everybody, and a very Happy Valentine's Day to you all!
So….(so, so).
Some time ago I was watching TV. Well, actually, it was New Year's Day, and I was watching the New Year's Concert from Vienna. So as the lovely music was playing, they started to show a dreamy confection of a palace. And then some dancers came leaping onto the scene. And I was thrilled out of my mind, because she was a beautiful, dark-haired woman, and he was darker and shorter than she, so I said...
OH, LOOK! It's Eugenides and Irene!
I have made some digital art out of them -- and no, they don't look quite right. But I hope you find them romantic anyway ;-D
They are under the cut --

You will probably not be surprised to hear that a strapping, blond young man then came bounding out, dancing with a small woman with dark, curly hair, and I was all "OH! SOPHOS AND HELEN!"
In other news… Someone here made some really awesome earrings a while back, and I have emulated them, with wooden beads and sharpies. They are quite small, and they look a bit more like twins than a married couple, but anyway, here they are! (You will see, if you look closely, that their "feet" are made out of tiny silver hearts. Irene's lipstick seems to have gotten a bit smudged, maybe due to the inferior quality of sharpie I used to draw her features -- oh, well. I was ridiculously pleased with myself, anyway!)
Enjoy!

I'm not SO obsessed that I think about the Queen's Thief characters ALL the time (even though I have named one of my pets Costis). But somehow, watching that show, they just leaped out at me. (OK, I love bad puns ;-D)
