Remix of art by: lunulet
URL of original piece: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/leelastarsky/Harry%20Potter/lunulet.jpg
Rating: G
Characters: Harry, Ron, and Pig.
Notes: Lunulet, chosing one of your pieces to remix was sweet agony! So many choices, and I was really, really tempted to do one of your Trio pics! But then I decided that those were too perfect, and any sort of copy I did would look really horrible compared. It came down to a choice between the Sirius/Buckbeak one you did recently or this one. My kids picked this one! (when you can't decide, kids are ALWAYS happy to make the choice for you! XD) I really love this pic of yours, despite the fact that it's unfinished. It shows the comfort inherant in Harry and Ron's friendship, and Pig's expression is priceless. I love the idea that Ron is tickling/teasing him. I also thought it appropriate for them to be in their pyjamas; they look so comfy! ;~P
I just discovered, when looking for this on your website to link to, that you don't actually have it up there. So I hope you don't mind that I posted it to my photobucket account.

Ohmygosh, must form coherent comment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEELA!!!! I am so lucky and honored to have you as my remixer. And that you remixed something tiny and unfinished, and turned it into a full image, is like being given a wonderful gift. ;_____;

I can just feel the special bond between them. You gave this picture so much more nuance. It's *realized*. Ron is relaxed, leaning naturally into Harry, and his lanky legs and feet are just stuck out casually, since he's grown up in close quarters, where the family is relaxed and affectionate. But Harry is more reserved, taking up less space, not initiating contact but sort of wondering at it. I love Ron's hair on Harry's arm, Harry's finger hooked into the book pages, and of course....

PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the little bit of skin under Ron's shirt pleases me greatly. :D
But the fact that it is not overtly slashy pleases me greatly too. Thank you, Leela! Can I link from a thumbnail/host this on my site?

:> :>

*does happy dance* Oh, I'm SO glad you like it! Of course you can link to it or post it at your site!

And, as I said, they look so comfortable with each other in my pic because that was (I felt) the major theme of your work, even if it was just a tiny sketch.

:~)
