Happy Late 70th Anniversary Of Lotf !1!1!! (the Best And Only Book I've Ever Read In My Entire Life 🥹)

just one of those days!

old jack drawing from several weeks ago, when i was maybe halfway through LOTF.

the making of the JACK CAKE with @tomchapinsnosebump

this might be our lifes work please be supportive

thank you louisa for joining me on this adventure, it is so so delicious

I will never finish this 🫒

every like 5 years or so i go into a frenzy and have to draw them again. sorry everyone

i really hope someone knows that i’m referencing 😭😭🤞🤞🤞

I think because Ralph is my favorite character I’m always begging people to understand he’s such a flawed character…

Like obviously he makes fun of Piggy’s asthma, doesn’t ask his name in return, and tells everyone the nickname he explicitly said not tell.

And even more than that when he goes hunting with Jack he gets so excited and into it, bragging that he hit the pig a little bit. He makes fun of Simon to Jack just so he’ll agree with him and they’ll stop arguing (even tho Simon was the only one helping him).

Ralph wants Jack to like him almost as much as he wants to get rescued. Those things are like his number 1 and 2 priorities.

And when those two things start to conflict… he loses it. When Jack leaves he for a moment forgets why he wants to get rescued, no?

Like I won’t be a Jalph truther right now so even platonically with no crush or anything it’s like Ralph is this normal, kinda cool, well-liked, happy go lucky boy at the beginning of the novel and throughout he turns into this yelling, bitter mess because he can’t get Jack to like him.

ehhh i didn’t want to full render this so take a dumb doodle of the stupid alcoholic children
