Art: Ghosts. (Lily Evans, Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Dougal McGregor, G)

Title: Ghosts.
Characters: Lily Evans, Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Dougal McGregor.
Rating: G.
Credits: Lily by ~Gracies-Stock and Dougal by ~Johnny-Yong, texture by `cloaks, grass and flowers by !ro-stock
Summary: Sometimes, if the light was right, in the hours around dawn, they almost seemed close enough to touch.
A/N:  Severus and Minerva being haunted by the ghosts of their past - Lily and Dougal. Loved ones who died remain a part of you, and navigating a relationship around those still half-with you must be pretty challenging. Yes, I caved in and did something Pottermore-backstory-related and kitschily indulgent. Apologies!

Oh, please don't apologise, it's glorious! I love how Dougal looks almost like an angel, and Lily like a faerie - it seems true to them. The night sky and the grasses/plants beneath them all are glorious. I love Dougal's nose, too. :B And the way Minerva and Severus are so-close to touching, but not quite. Dougal's pose is thrilling. Of course your silhouettes for Minerva and Severus are also glorious. Great colour scheme and amazing piece!

Thank you for your detailed comment, Kiwi! I love the thought of the ghosts as fairy and angel. ♥ For Dougal I was incredibly lucky to find a gorgeous stock image of a male dancer - it greatly improved my own attempts.
