Disclaimer: Nothing you recognize belongs to me.
Notes/Warnings:This started as a little vignette I wrote on tumblr that grew unexpectedly. It's kind of jossed already by what we've heard about S3, but I still wanted to get it out of my system.
Excerpt: He crossed to her, silent, and reached into his jacket. He withdrew a glove. It had been white, once, but it wasn‘t anymore. Oil, gunpowder, dirt and blood had entirely transformed it, but it was hers. Dropped in the struggle. Hers.

Since I figure making more of them is the best way to get better at making icons, I'm doing the

musketeerstills challenges. This round is "favorite characters" and I did Athos, Porthos, Milady, Constance and Treville. A couple of observations:

1) My God, Constance, can you not keep still? I notice a lot of people seem to prefer making icons with promotional photos of her; possibly it's because it's so hard to make a screencap of her that isn't blurry.

2) Milady on the other hand is great to take screencaps of. I ended up making like sooo many icons of her. I made extra Porthos too.

( Surplus Milady and Porthos Icons... )

3) Though I didn't mean for it to happen that way, the icons I'm thinking about posting make a rainbow. I'm still deciding whether I should embrace the rainbow, or arrange them in a different order and hope no one notices.
