artisticbollocks:

that request for more newmann cuddling in weird places kinda accidentally pivoted into comic about labsex, a trope I (un)secretly love because (cool story bro time) I used to work in a chemistry lab and let me tell you, you really do not want to put your naked anything on anything in there. all of my shirts from that era are peppered with tiny little holes from the acids. 

art requests make me all warm and fuzzy inside. drop something in my ask box!

Summary:

The invasion of the Anteverse was successful, and the Precursors have been destroyed, but Newt still hasn’t awoken from his coma and doesn’t respond initially to Drift attempts from Hermann to wake him.

But when one day a connection is established, Hermann and Newt find themselves in a mingled mindscape that seems informed by Dante’s “Inferno”. Together, they pass through the Nine Circles, nine memories of Newt’s years under Precursor control in the hopes it will help free Newt from his own head.

Yet questions linger: how much did the Precursors take from Newt, to what lengths will Hermann go to free him, and is the other even truly there, or merely a rabbit of the other’s making, a wish fulfillment fantasy that they’re chasing into the abyss?

Next chapter is up because I have no self control. It underwent a MASSIVE re-write but I think it’s much stronger as a result, somewhat inspired by “The Blue Guitar” by cleanwhiteroom.
