KeyLimePie's lovely story is a bit of a contrast to the first of my SammyBB claims. This one is short, sweet, and any angst is purely temporary. I'm sure you'll find it the perfect pick-me-up for the weekend!

Click on the banner to read the story
Birthdays suck banner-1-full

In addition to the banner I went for a rather irresistible scene near the end of the fic - so yep, SPOILERS AHOY!
Sneak preview in case you want to read the story first but need a teaser.

The full spoilery picture.
Sam with puppy digital colour
How cute is Sammy with a puppy? TOO CUTE, RIGHT?

Process-wise there's not much of a tale to tell - other than I had to do all this in a day because I had completely erased from my tiny brain the fact I claimed two stories, not one. I owe KeyLimePie some pie and puppies and a huge apology for being such a goldfish.

Anyhow - the banner is all digital. I drew the werewolf and the wee party hat, but the balloons are cliparts I found via google searches. The Sam drawing is ballpoint pen with digital colouring and a cardboard texture anyone who knows me will have seen before.
Here's the scanned pen sketch for anyone interested.
Sam with puppy
Oh I should probably also say, the Sam reference was a screencap from Plucky Pennywhistle (you know, when he's covered in glitter but has to smile anyway), and the pupster is an adorable cockapoo who I'd adopt in a heartbeat if I found him on my doorstep. (In fact, I'd adopt the pair of them, given half a chance...)

This is so darn cute!!! I mean is there anything more irresistible in life than a smiley Sam holding a puppy? This has a such a fun and positive feel to it, and I love all the bright colours too, and I love all the details on the werewolf too.

Thanks for sharing :)

Smiley Sam on his own is devastating enough, but add an adorable actual puppy and well - it's full meltdown time. LOL!!
Thanks me dear! (And sorry I failed to pick up your Gencest summary but you got a great artist to play with!)

It really is, and it's such a joy to see! I mean it's not often that we see him that happy, so it's extra special. And the pup looks so tiny and adorable in Sam's hands.

(I'm just thrilled that someone chose my fic and summary!!! Was it obviously mine? I did wonder if it just sounded way too much like me. My artist and I have been emailing back and forth and she's a real sweetheart! I'm excited to get stuck into the collab with her. Did you pick up a fic?)

I didn't pick up it was yours - though it was on my shortlist (potential for heartbreak? I'm there!)
Your artist is on the Discord server so you can chat over there - you were on the receiving end of some praise so prepare to blush.
I got storyspinner's fic - it was one of the case fics (number 9) - so that should be fun!

I'm very flattered that I was on your shortlist! I took as much of your advice as I could about a detailed summary and as many visuals I could throw at it. And gosh, I'm so terrible with Discord! I go on and then I somehow seem to forget all about it. I'll have to pop over.

And yay I'm happy that you picked up a fic. There was so many wonderful summaries, I don't know how you narrowed it down.

It's supposed to a puppy - but yes, Sam with anything small and fluffy is worth it! Thank you, my dear!

It's not a great Sam likeness but there's just something so appealing about giving them pets...
