“To Laigle, Joly said, ‘You stay put, and for God’s sake, sleep!  I’ve told you again and again—that’s the only way to heal.  Now take your doctor’s orders!’

‘Yes, doctor,’ said Laigle with a slight smile.  ‘Now, you take your patient’s orders and be careful out there.’

‘I will.’  Joly bent over the bed, taking Laigle’s hands in his, and buried his face against those hands.  Touched by the tenderness of this good-bye, I could not help but glance over at Combeferre, and was startled to see that he was watching me in turn.”

Because some of you (you know who you are… ;)) like it when I draw Laigle and Joly.  This is done with ink washes and pencil. 

I know I’ve been slacking on Inktober, but here you go, I did something in inks. So there.  🙂

(P.S., Joly must really live in a shithole.  I had fun scratching up the watercolor paper with my fingernails to get a nasty-plaster look for this background.)

Joly and Bossuet decide to go as each other for Halloween

It all goes awry when Bossuet has an allergic reaction to the Joly wig he’s wearing, and Joly accidentally glues his bald cap to his hair. They spend the night in the hospital making fun of each other as each other.

“Look at me I’m Joly! I’m so smart and I have a doctorates degree, but I don’t know that glue and hair don’t mix!”

“Well my name is Bossuet, or is it Lesgle? Or is it Legal? Legless? Legolas??? Who am I?!?”
