Henry Strauss - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

Maybe because it’s a book for adults but I can’t believe tumblr isn’t obsessed with Henry Strauss from Addie LaRue. he owns a bookshop. he's bisexual. he dropped out of grad school. he made a Faustian deal with the devil. his ex-boyfriend is in love with him even though he himself has fallen in love with a 300 year old French woman who also made a Faustian deal. He self medicates with random pills his little sister gives him. He was made in a lab for you people

Everytime I think of this scene in my head I imagine it sounding like the most gut wrenching desperate pleading scream and it kills me a little more every time

No Matter How Desperate Or Dire, Never Pray To The Gods That Answer After Dark.
No Matter How Desperate Or Dire, Never Pray To The Gods That Answer After Dark.

No matter how desperate or dire, never pray to the gods that answer after dark.

I've always wanted to draw this scene, and I've been trying to practice backgrounds so the forest setting was perfect. I also really like the way the 2nd panel turned out!

THIS

I’m sorry but the people who read Addie Larue and walked away saying she had no depth or no motivation or wtf ever lack basic reading comprehension skills. The book literally mentions multiple times that she is operating on pure spite. There are multiple times she wants to give in but doesn’t because there is more beauty to be seen and more ways to make Luc mad about the fact that she won’t give in. “She never does anything important.” Girl is literally fighting the ocean alone. No one can remember her, but she still wakes up and gives her heart to people who see her as a stranger. Over 300 years and she doesn’t stop trying to experience love and happiness. God, you must be so miserable and end result motivated to not see how good this character is.
