Hello all!
I'm Eva! (Co-conspirator, co-creator of the gendEd AU, and beta for the garden of eden fic.)
I make a lot of fun doodles while we brainstorm chapters and usually post them as fun "behind the scenes" extras on tumblr, but I decided to put them all in one place here!
(Read: figured out how to nicely embed images on Ao3.)
I'm Rainowz! (Co-conspirator, co-creator of the gendEd AU, and author of the garden of eden fic.)

Rainowz doesn't really *do* tumblr, so p much all of her art lives here and here only! Tell her how absolutely gorgeous it is please! -Eva

Chapter 1: Doodles (Chapter 6/7)

Notes:

Hey! It's chapters 6 and 7! (Mostly)
These doodles were done before Rainowz started actually writing the fic so they might not map 100% cleanly lol!

 

 

Chapter 2: Nina!

Notes:

Nina got some flowers for her mama!

Notes:

Chimera Nina has my whole heart!

Chapter 3: Love at First Concussion (Chapter 12)

Notes:

"Before him, Ling swore he saw an angel. Their long, golden hair tied into a braid, fell perfectly past their face. Intelligent golden eyes sparked, even their skin was a perfect golden tan. It was like a statue had come to life in front of him. A beautiful red dress fell from their figure, like they knew that they deserved to be royalty. This, Ling deliriously thought, was someone who was smart, and deeply loyal."

Chapter 4: The Dress (Chapter 12) (Rainowz)

Notes:

Art by Rainowz!!

Chapter 5: Outrage! (Chapter 13)

Notes:

" Lan Fan had never been to the West before, so any lessons to be gained about life here were good to know. However, the more the Elrics said, the less inclined she was to believe them. There was just no way any country would have the only way to refer to others be by how much you respect them. She was like, 85% sure."

Notes:

Lan fan is so sick of this shit already.

Chapter 6: The Lesson (Chapter 16) (Rainowz)

Notes:

“These hands,” Ed rubbed Nina’s small palms with her thumbs, “These hands will grow and change to do so many wonderful things, but the one thing your hands were never made for is to destroy.”

Chapter 7: Snow day! (Chapter 33/34)

Notes:

Happy Snow Day! The gang heads to Fort Briggs!

Notes:

So much of Nina's experience at Briggs is pulled directly from my childhood in a frozen mountain town. It was 100% my influence to give her some of my most magical memories (walking on top of the snow in early spring) and I regret nothing!
(Well. Slight regret: We didn't quite find a way to work in jumping off of the roof when the snow drifts were deep enough, but knowing the Elrics, I'm sure they would've loved it)

Chapter 8: TRUTHED (Chapter 40)

Notes:

"Truth did their weird laugh with many voices, before speaking. “I’ve come to make a counter offer.”"

Notes:

Gosh, I love this piece. As soon as Rainowz stated talking about TruthEd, I knew I just had to draw this!

Chapter 9: TRUTH (Chapter 40) (Rainowz)

Notes:

"Ed’s eyes were pure white and glowing, and she had a manic grin on her face. When she opened her mouth to speak, her voice was layered with many others. "

Chapter 11: Huevember #1: Letters! (Chapter 55) (Rainowz)

Notes:

Hey everyone! I've decided to do huevember based on this AU this year, so look forward to lots of lovely art in the days to come!

Chapter 12: Huevember #2: Poems! (Chapter 30) (Rainowz)

"No, no. You can't use the word golden twice-"

Notes:
