January 2017 Wallpaper: Airmail
Shaenon: The Nick/Dr. Lee relationship is all hells of messed up, but I love drawing them. All the flowers in the illustration signify secret or forbidden love in Victorian flower language. SECRET LOOOOVE.
As usual, if you make a donation in any amount to the Skin Horse Tip Jar, or contribute any amount to our Patreon, we’ll send you a link to this wallpaper. Patreon contributors will continue to receive new wallpaper for the length of their contribution.
You’ll also get this bonus Aubrey Beardsley-inspired wallpaper from the archives:
Channing: Even in thumbnail form, this wallpaper is about eight kinds of relaxing.
……And now I’m contemplating specifically how Nick and Dr. Lee could use the Whimsy VR system for porn together.
Rule 34 says that material is out there somewhere.
I don’t think their love is all that Secret, and it really isn’t Forbidden. Are there any Victorian flowers that represent Kinda Messed Up and Possibly Unconsummatable Love?
Hmmm…
Hopeless love: Yellow Tulips
Chastity: Orange blossoms
Instability: Dahlias
‘I am your captive’: Peach blossoms
Ain’t no such think as unconsummatable, this is humans you’re dealing with here.
I suppose it depends on how drunk they are.
Nick isn’t human, that’s the problem.
Very Maxfield Parrish-y…
Daffodil: unrequited love.
Chris and Marcie figured it out, although it took a nuclear attack to do it. I’d love it if Ginny and Nick could be together, even if they couldn’t be “together.” I’m just a romantic, I guess.
Hmm, it appears donating to the tip jar is currently still sending out a link to the December wallpaper instead of this one.
Sorry about that. Fixed!
