potofsoup: Let’s pretend it’s still Inktober 2k17: where I attempt to draw 1 pic each for the first 30 chapters of Owlet’s The Long Road Begins At Home. Chapter 30: Resolution of an equation And then: an offer that makes all the calculating Barnes has done since DC become clear. This trajectory he is on, the three parts of him together, is a thing made up of broken parts that is not itself intrinsically broken. He doesn’t need to forget, to move forward. He doesn’t need to erase his long past. It is sufficient just to be who he is. He can sit on the balcony with Thor and watch the sun rise, eating cookies and answering Thor’s questions about memory and mission. And by the time Steve finds them, rumpled looking in the flying-pig pajamas, the itch in Barnes’s brain has eased. Something long untethered inside him has found an anchor. Maybe some other day he will define it, name the thing that ties all the parts of himself together with a new solidity. For the moment, just to feel it is enough. And with that, I’m done with this Inktober! I always get super emotional when I hit this scene in my various rereads, so I was very happy when I laid out my inktober plans and realized that I would end here, with Barnes and Thor on the balcony. Here’s everything in chronological order: http://potofsoup.tumblr.com/tagged/infinite+coffee/chrono Thank you, to everyone who came along for the ride and left so many great comments in the notes and reblogs. And to Owlet, for writing Infinite Coffee-verse and giving me so many joys in my many many read-throughs, and for being so open to my Inktober shenanigans. There’s still a bit of miscellaneous clean-up before I post it on AO3. And possibly print a few paper booklets for folks who want one. But first: a small art break.
