This is a sketch based on Ellen Million's Elemental, in which her character, Jenny, encounters a fire elemental sent by the well-meaning were-bear(? what do you call someone who is a bear in summer but turns human instead of hibernating?) Bjorn, and must find a clever way to protect herself from the *ahem* elements.

I think I commented on this somewhere else? Anyway, I really love the body language here!

I love that look of "...Ooookay, what's this then?" that you've captured with just her eyes and body-language.

Seconded! (What is she reaching into her pocket for?)

That's a lot of expression without the mouth being visible.

And eeeeeee, there's a bear in the flames! How did I not notice that before?!

Thank you!

Read the story if you want to know what she found in her pocket ;)

The elemental isn't exactly a bear, but it was kind of sent by one!

I really like the facial expression here, and the sketch does make me curious to read the story, so I think it's pretty successful. :)

Yay!

This definitely looks more like a fire elemental now.
