Two drawings of Poor Edward and my Fallen London character Samuel, together romantically; one shows Edward leaning his mask against Samuel's forehead, saying "We should have shared the milk, my love. You could have been as happy as I am." Samuel undoes his shirt, expression resigned but not unhappy, and replies "Ha. Maybe." The second drawing is Sam and Edward sitting next to each other, with Edward pouring them each a glass of wine; Edward is eagerly happy to see him and Samuel is doing his best to smile.

AU Where He Said Yes aka Bittersweet Marriage AU

since i mentioned it in the tags of one of those character asks, I dug up some of the sketches from when I was pondering how it might have worked out, if Samuel had agreed to marry Poor Edward... He isn't in love with Edward, but Sam felt a lot of sympathy for this out-of-control whirlwind of self-destruction and wanted to... help him, somehow. If he went through with it, he'd treat it like a real marriage, he wouldn't marry again in the waking world, he would ease off of his dalliances with Peter and Jack because that's cheating on Edward now, and do his best to be faithful and present for his husband. It would, in truth, be a loveless duty of a marriage, but I don't think Samuel would regret this choice; the fact that he feels unsuited for a "normal" marriage would convince him that he's the right person to keep Edward company.
