Mucho iconage!

[kerravonsen]

Icons, icons, get yer icons here! This includes the request for izhilzha. No, I didn't do all these today, just one of them. The others have been lying around waiting for me to decide whether I would tweak them or post them or give up on them.

	Astrogeek from my digital art "Astrogeek" (Samantha Carter); want, take, comment, credit
	Simon (sigh) done for izhilzha -- she wanted Simon looking Simon-like, here he is. I fussed so much with the background, I finally gave up.
	Vor Love Miles and Ekatarin, from one of the covers of "Komarr" by LMB. Want, take, comment, credit
	No Santa I declare this a Santa-free zone! (this is my reaction to all the Santa-hats which will soon be breaking out all over LJ). The hat is from some clip-art. Want, take, comment, credit

I like Cordelia but once again we have the sexist society so enamoured of SF. Why? At least the main characters question it and are intelligent enough to understand that tradition isn't fixed. But even Cordelia was obsessed by child-bearing. :-( However I'm looking forward to more as I like her, Aral, Kou, and Drou very much, and so many people whose taste I respect love the books.

And I have something to look forward to during my enforced breaks at work. :-)

It's kinda natural for women to be obsessed with having children. Those who aren't rarely propagate their genes...

Getting several books down the line, you'll meet some of the women of the next generation who are even more pissed off with Barrayar society as they've had a chance to see the worlds beyond. The culture clash becomes ever more interesting (and you also see the way some women manage to make their own impact by working round the restrictions. I remember one character in particular who gave me a very pleasant surprise)
