[Art] - And in the lake there was the Giant Squid

Title: And in the lake there was the Giant Squid
Characters: Blackbeard and Sirius.
Rating: Say a letter?
Notes: For the Giant Squid challenge, over at omniocular. :) To put it short, you chose a number that was connected to (a) a character, (b) a place, (c) etcetcetc and you had to create something that contained both the prompt and the Giant Squid. In my case it was #18, which turned out to be Blackbeard. I had to Wiki him to know who he was, but I'm using the Different Country excuse. ;P

This art will be one of those on sale at Sectus' Art Gallery, starting 20th of July. 40% profit will go to Book Aid International. Other pieces of mine - still on sale - will be The Patronus and Wake Up Boo.




So, I got the prompt and started thinking of what I could do. I was honestly starting to go for the classic "Giant Squid jumps out of lake and scares Blackbeard half to death".

That is, until I remembered the last paragraph of a certain entry.

On the way, as I figured out details while I was working, it started to become something different, though. In other words, what is going on is: Sirius broke his Timeturner, got stuck in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time. And talked his way out of Trouble by starting chattering about everything and anything - including Giant Squids in Hogwarts lakes, which is what Sirius is miming at the moment. :3

♥ I adore the face your Sirius has, you know. It's so very expressive. And Blackbeard looks astonishingly like Remus in his exasperation with Sirius. Once again, ♥

*blushes* Thank you! :D

I suspect Sirius would bring up the same reactions from anyone. ;P
