Hey my dears! I'm working on another coloured illustration before this month ends (so like, by the end of today lol) to complete this month's reward. If I can, I'll squeeze in a bit more to make up for last month's rewards as well. Please stick around until they're all sent! Also for those who are unfamiliar, coloured illustrations are a bi-weekly reward.

Not exactly NSFW but I wanted to work on something that's intimate in a more slice-of-life way. Hope y'all like this one <3

This is exactly what I needed today! I love the intimacy of this pic, its what really makes a relationship work. Snuggles and talks 😍

Karissa Nelson

This is really just so beautiful and touching

Deedee

Wow 😍 To me, intimate scenes like these are so much more erotic than the explicit ones. Tho I am here for that as well 😚

Pauline Thyssen-Nahon

It's so cute! you really feel the emotion. Thank you so much Lily, you are an amazing artist!

BlueCaty

JRS

Bly

Omg please, please, please, PLEASE tell me at some point, we'll actually see Poppy in Tora's hoodie in the webtoon lmao. That is my dying wish lmfao.

Math’?

💗💗💗

Monique

Beautiful Lil, so much detail. I can feel the intimacy from here.

Rodrigues Julie

Magnifique, on sent l’émotion! J’adore Bravo l’artiste! 🥰

Jillian Biehl

So simple yet soooo sexy 😍🥰

Melroyn

Love it! This is too cute

Jenny Slusarz

The intensity with which I want this to be canon is obscene. Melting with warm and fuzzies.

ReineK

Magnifique 🥰

B00kie

I have the dokis 😭💙

Shireen Simms

This is my new desktop background! I love this so much!! <3

SOPHIA A

Such a sweet picture. Also love Tora's pony tail.

Toutou Cee

I love these ‘slice of life’ images.

Leslie

This is so tender it’s breaking my heart 😭

Jordan Dennis

Loving this one ❤️ just so sweet

Tatiana Eletzky

Stunning, love the colors, you have a special talent with colors to make things so smooth and warm

Emily Basso

So there are a million reasons I’m in love with this right right 🥺❤️ and the intimacy and sincerity of this snap shot moment is filling me with all the emotions... lol shocker.... But it’s the composition of this peace that is really fascinating me right now. My eyes can not stop moving. I go from Tora’s face and his beautiful eyes, (and HELLO PONY TAIL 👀) and follow his gaze to Poppy’s own eyes that seem to be a gateway into her racing mind... and follow that to his chest, where’s she’s touching him so gently, and zigzag again down her arm and up his.... and then all over. It’s like we are being directed, given permission to explore this moment with them 😭 and I feel honored?? It’s such a private moment and yet it doesn’t feel like they’re hiding...

Green Eyed Soul

Wait a minute! Could this be a canon? 👀

Lucy_bee

This is adorable, and so true to real life! I love it! Gives me the warm fuzzies 🥰

MadTeaCat_86

I so feel as if a moment like this is coming in the main story. In season one, if poppy hadn’t broken Tora’s heart just a little bit, we got a clear picture of where they could be together. When I position the cell of Tora telling poppy that she can hold on him just right on my phone....... it almost looks like they are topless

Samantha Wells

The clothes in the background sure look familiar...

NurseLaura

"Not exactly NSFW" she says, then proceeds to gift us Tora in grey sweatpants 😏🥵 lol But seriously, this is what I imagine their heart to heart will be like. Like idk after running high on adrenaline from being in Ares Street, they end up in a heated make out sesh but then when the hormones dissipate, they reflect on what being together could mean and how Poppy's turd ex made her feel, etc etc

Jenny Wooten

I can not wait to see this in the webtoon for reals! This is amazing! 😍

Cassandra Star

Just what i needed to start my day 🥰😍... Refreshing intimate coloured art of Poppy and Tora... This is my morning coffee ☕☕ THANK YOU

Taylor

This is definitely one of my favorite images of them.

Anastasia

This is stunning. Your ability to capture emotions is just too amazing.

Elizabeth Phillips

Beautiful! I love the intimacy despite thinking It would be something more spicy lol <3

Sahar

Poppy and tora are sooo stunning

Tiana Veronica

i live for secret garden updates 😍

Catie

This is so perfect. I love it. Thinking about them as a “normal” couple doing everyday things is really great after seeing them in dark and/or dangerous places and situations. 🍓 🐅 ❤️

TicklemeAli

I just love her little leg on the side 😭 😭 precious beans

Pauly UM

Totally beautiful 🥰😍

Gizemdrawssometimes

Emily

The way he looks at her always makes my heart melt ❤️

Brook B

This is simply gorgeous

EmeryDiLoncrete

I am blown away with how beautiful and majestic this is❤! Such an intimate yet sweet moment between them🥰. There's nothing else, just them, their moment....😌 And how He's being so gentle with her, just letting her roam and explore his body 😭 and Poppy being as gentle as him, yet careful. I see that piece of tat is her favorite, she always goes for it 😂, my heart 💓 I can't take it 😍. This looks canon 😁 and I can't wait to see this. Lily, darling, you're awesome and thank you as always for making me feel this way with your art. I've said it before, but you ma'am are a master storyteller 😘👌🏻

Rachel B.

I so miss these Secret Garden updates. Are we going to be graced with more of 'A Little Theif' ?

TeHeeJones

Love it 💜! Who doesn't enjoy seeing a big tough guy being gentle with his woman 😉 aka Tora and Poppy 💜!

Sara Malfitano

I love these intimate moments!! I would love to see more of them! I like how tender they are. Seeing the emotion between the two of them melts my heart.

Dracula

It's so soothing and beautiful I was brought to tears 🥺🥲💘 one can feel the sweetness of this moment

Gracileuda Silva

I love this kind of illustration, I actually prefer it that way! Congratulations for the best art ever!❤️

Aubribri

Be still, my heart! The look Tora has, Poppy's hand on his chest UUUGGGHHHHH this is a beautifully subtle and intimate moment. The warm fuzzy's are REAL. 😩🥺🥰😍 Edit: SHE'S WEARING HIS HOODIE!!!! OMG I JUST NOTICED!!! OMG OMG OMG

ladylibris

Awww, she just adores *that* spot on his chest, doesn’t she? I love how we can understand what’s happening between them just from this one image. Every picture tells a story, doesn’t it?

Katarina Mineo

Omg I love them so much. I'm so excited!

Haley Webb

I really like Tora’s “colonial” style ponytail. We haven’t seen him wear it in that style in the cannon comic yet but something about it just gets me. 💜 This might be one of my favorite Secret Garden posts Lily! I can see this being the calm, sweet moment before they’re intimate for the first time.

Malin

This is sooooo cute, intimate and sexy at the same time! AND OMG POPPY IS WEARING TORA'S HOODIE Imma cry now our baby girl is all grown up now and covered in Tora's scent lol

Lo

Honestly this is so beautiful it made my heart hurt 🥺❤️ I’m such a sap I love this!!

Jrin.V

Oh gossshhh....I'm dead❤❤❤❤

Erin S.

The intimacy of them exploring each other 🥵🤯😵 my head and heart can't handle it! Noticed his hoodie (I see you phone, trying to auto correct that to goodies 😜) right away, but anyone else think it looks like Poppy isn't wearing anything else BUT that hoodie??? We know that Tora is big enough that his clothes swim on her, but 🤩🥵🙏

Bonny Rozzi

This is soooo BEAUTIFUL 😍 and I love their feel❣

Bonny Rozzi

OMG I didn't realize till I read the comments that she has Tora's hoodie on! 😳SWEET! LILY😘 Chica your amazing 😍🥰

Alyssa Perrone

Aww I love this! This is sweet and adorable, and honestly, kind of how I picture them to be in the comic once they do actually get together. I also love that she is wearing the Superman sweater from the beginning of the comic. So touching!❤😊

Theresa Scott

These pics are gorgeous your the best Lily.

LoopyJ

I have looked at this beautiful picture for no more than 3 seconds and I'm already choked up. What is haaaaappening to meeeee?! 😭

Michelle Moore

This is so detailed & intricate, thank you❤️❤️

larosamorada

👀👀👀 anyone who thinks this isn't NSFW isn't using their imagination...Poppy is spread eagle in that lap, wearing ONLY his jacket 🥵🥵🥵 and by the looks of her room, they were rough and tumbling... maybe getting a little handsy before they contemplate AHEM.... getting down to business. That look on Poppy's face is "should I? Maybe." And Tora is like "you sure?" Gaaaahhh...losing my mind over here on the possibility alone 🥵🥵🥵🥵

Eva Rodríguez

Thiss is the cutest ❤️❤️❤️❤️

minnsco

This is beautiful!

Dani

I am such a fan of the sweet things. You can seriously feel the softness of this beautiful moment. 🌺🐯💞 He's studying his lil flowers face to ensure she's comfortable while she looks as though she's nervous. It looks as if he's allowing her to lead because he doesn't want to be rough with her at all. My goodness the genuine look of love on Toras face is so pure. Her touching him so softly is I'm sure something he's not use to and her being allowed HER time to do it without having to feel pushed into it is what I see here. Just a lazy day of learning and loving one another.😊😊😊 Thank you Lily

Christina Agan

Okay, so.......ngl, this might be my favorite SG image of them. Love love love this.

Mimi Mesa

I’m living for the gentleness also I love slice of life bc it’s just so sweet

Rosslyn Lizardo

So beautiful!! 😭😭😭 I’ve missed them sm💞💞

Shef1007

All the sweetness! 😍 also tora in a low pony didn't think that would get to me like it does lol

Ldyblue

Nice and sweet!

Eveondece

I don’t know if it’s because I’m on my period or what, but I started crying because this is just so intimate and cute. It’s what I’m craving these days!

Corn

I love this

Hannah

I love this and the fact that she has his jacket on and everything about this is perfect

Kritzia

I love how sweet this is 🥺

HiDeeRang

Will never get over the tenderness in Toras eyes whenever he looks at Pops 🥺💕

Ashley New

... I looked and I didn't see anyone else commenting about it... is Tora's hand behind him laying on top of a notebook? Could that possibly be the notebook he's been looking for in the story?? 🤔 love the art!!!! ❤😍

Sadie Allard

The intimacy between them here is so lovely 🥺 and the art style looks so crisp😆 I love it!

Sarah Hernandez

I love that this is the first thing I wake up too, Poppy wearing Tora's jacket, it's so pure🥺😭❤️

Sahar

The background with the sunset it seems as if maybe they had a steamy night and they woke up and just wanted more of each other.

Jagura

Yeah, as far as I'm concerned this is cannon.

Taylor Marbut

They definitely just got some sexy time in before this. I love it. 😍

marissa

perfect ❤

mari

Omg 🥺😳sexy time?🤩

Sevelou

The return of the jack-et !!!

Heather West

Squeeeeeeeeeeee! This made my month, I can’t stop gazing at it. This is absolutely the same level of ‘turn on’ for me as the more explicit nsfw gems. I can feel the longing and emotion in my bones. Lily, you are magic ✨❤️✨

Life is beautiful

This is so beautiful!!! The art the color the way they are looking at each other! Thank you @Lilydusk! Thank you for everything you do!!! 😍🥰😘 we missed you and your art!

J-Tee

Gorgeous!

BegoniaRex

Aaaaaw, I LOVE this! Steamy SGs are fun, but honestly I love moments like this more. This is so beautiful and sweet and tender.

M.

Oooh ooh in love with this, beautiful and sooo intimate, really does leave it open to imagination 😍☺️😉 always wondered what happened to his hoodie... also... anyone notice that laptop is up? Exactly at what point in the timeline are we imagining this to have occurred 👀

Tiffanyyyyy B

Omg this is beautiful! I love all the highlight added in ... and that warm color they both have? 😍marvelous! 🤌 I appreciate it so much more after watching a Pixar exhibit. Takes so much time to add in all of those details smh. Just when I thought Poppy & Tora couldn't get any more glorious you make it so ☺

Payton Rivers

YASS MY QUEEN. ITS THE INTIMACY FOR ME

Rachael

Slice of life are my favorite images

Victoriaaatoons

I love everything about this!!!! There’s so much to look at but I can’t help being drawn to their gaze at each other 🥺

LoopyJ

His tattoos are glowing, her skin is luminescent, the two being surrounded by warm lights and shadows. So visually addictive. So good.

Anthalialovel25

I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!! This one looks very intimate and romantic!!!!!

Sahar

I noticed that in this picture both of them are in the light not just poppy and thats so beautiful

Amy Crumbaugh

Oh my GOD. The emotional intimacy and tenderness conveyed in a single image! This is blowing me away.

MissT

Her in nothing but his sweatshirt, clothes everywhere, pillows scattered, pages and books on the floor. Wowwww!! This could be another image that launches a thousand fanfics for REAL! I'm. Ob. Sessed.

M M

Love this!!! Thanks Lily! 💜

Dannisse Arenas

i swear tora gets hotter every damn day akajsnsjdnajsbsnfb 😩😍😍😍😍🥴🥴🥴

Leonie Raines

Really enjoy this slice of life. 😁😍

Diana Scarry

Just when you think the hair can't get any hotter (half bun), you go and do this low ponytail and I'm dead

Pamela Isley

Ma heart... Ma soul... Thank you

Magique

Definetly down for more intimacy ones over hard core NSFW ❤️

Sofia

Thank you! 🙌❤️

Jina Vargas

Hawt!!! I love that she’s wearing his hoodie and that he is so enamored with her while she looks so comfortable tracing her fingers over his chest. Nice touch with the throw pillows from the bed all strewn across the floor. 😉

Christina Agan

I love the quiet intimacy in this pose. The body language, and the softness.....they look relaxed with each other. It’s really a beautiful moment and I absolutely adore this.

Michele M

These are gorgeous- his looking at her -seemingly after perhaps telling her “I’m falling (or am) in love with you” as she processes those words and the fact that she wants to give herself (or has) to him

EmeryDiLoncrete

Why his hands are so darn sexy??? How can a drawing be so fucking sexy??? 😭😭😭

Ezra V

This is too cute 😭 she’s wearing his sweater 😖🥰😭😭😭

Mordred

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

Lawren

Adore these two and how sweet he is with her.

Jessica

Sigh, dreamy.

lily_ofthevalley

Ugh lily...this is absolutely one of my favorites now 😍 they're both so hot, but its the intimacy and love that gets me *sigh* *chef's kiss*

Erin Perez

The emotion and vulnerability in this make my eyeballs sweat. <3

Desiree DeRouen

Eeeekkkkk!!! They’re FINALLY FINALLY!!! Getting together??!!!...?!!!

Tiffany Roberts

Even if they are not spicy, the intimate ones are my favorite. <3 I love them.

Katrina Xharhus

Ah... this is so cute 😍 my heart is about to explode from the intimacy and the sweetness of this

Nana6781

This was really sweet and intimate for sure!! I love every detail in it. Awesome illustration as always.

Darla (Tora’s THOT)

So I looked at this hours ago and I really wanted to dive deep in this image. Poppy is sitting in between toras legs...she’s facing him and appears to be looking at his chest-ie his heart with her hand almost hesitantly touching his heart. Tora is facing poppy, legs around her, his hand securely holding her arm that seems to hesitate touching his heart. His eyes are focused on her- looking into her eyes, ie her soul. This is an intimate embrace clearly but there’s so much more. We see the background on poppys floor, it looks like the same clothes she wore to her second meeting with mr lam about his wife’s manuscript. She left that meeting so focused on her goal, but also talking to her dad in spirit.. she tells him to not worry about her, she might make mistakes, stumble and cry, but she will pick herself up and keep moving forward cause that’s what he would want her to do. She says “I’ll take good care of myself and I’ll always be thinking of you.” This narrative gives me the scenario of, what if tora came to see her immediately after her meeting while she was still dressed in her meeting clothes and she just got home? (Lets just pretend they bone in canon yeah)? Anyway—- in ep 31, we remember seeing butterfly land on tora… ie—- pops dad saying—-take care of my little girl...tora is literally there with her now. From this image- IN HER APARTMENT, literally almost cradling her, providing her with warmth and security from not only his safe and secure touch but his Superman jacket she is wearing here. She’s completely naked, bare, and exposed underneath which can be seen as completely vulnerable, but the fact that we see toras jacket covering her and keeping her warm, cozy, and secure shows how much tora IS TAKING CARE OF HER. Poppy is so damn independent and always has to take care of herself. I know how that is, it’s so damn exhausting and she’s the ONLY ONE she can truly rely on especially since her father died and well who knows where the infamous mother is...so- her telling her father that she will take care of herself??? Well here is this blessing of a man, TORA, like he’s sent to her, to take care of her, cause he WANTS to. Even in her most vulnerable, ie train where her tits exposed, Tora threw his jacket to cover her, so she won’t be vulnerable and exposed. I also wanna say how poppy makes tora feel safe as well. They are literally on the floor of her apartment… as we know, that’s where he feels the safest...poppy doesn’t seem to mind at all since there’s pillows all around. There’s that softness, the cushion she provides to Tora to literally feel safe in her space/with her. His hair is tied back exposing his neck and tattoos. He isn’t trying to hide his tattoos anymore. It’s part if him and he feels safe enough to expose himself to her. (HEH...DICK ON THE BRAIN ALL OF A SUDDEN-oh sorry). Also he has no shoes on… this tells me that he isn’t going anywhere. He will stay as long as he needs to- he will wait as long as he needs to- for poppy to let her guard down and allow him to love her & love on her… anyway I think this is running too long now. Point is- this image shows the love, safety, trust and security they both provide each other. It’s beautiful lily. I love it so much 😘😘😘 I hope I made sense as I was being distracted while writing.

Stephanie

Oh this is super cute 😍

Eva

My heart 🥰

ProperlySpoopi

I LOVE this! Slice-of-life moments might be my favorite 😍

Sara Barnes

I love how they take care of each other. Looking at this, I had this funny thought. Her ex knocked on the door and poppy answers in Tora's hoodie. Tora comes up behind her and picks her up by the waste, like a child and says " we already have enough girl scout cookies," and slams the door. Then you hear poppy through the door, "we have girl scout cookies?"

Haroly Nandy

I agree with Darla. Lovely picture.

Jamie13

My BABIES! I KISSED YOU ALL

Maggie

I can just see her touching his tattoos and asking "Did it hurt?" all concerned for him, and him being like "Of course it fucking hurt, are ya crazy? I got stabbed a million times for it. "... But at least it was my choice."

Lisset Garrido

Omg so beautiful!!! 😍😍😍😍More please!! 😘😘😘

juju

She gotta bite again >;] LMAOO

Odd’Rey

She is so « petite » and cute...

satellitedisch

Can this please be canon ☹️🥺🥺🥲

Katie80

This is my favorite kind of secret garden

Camille A.D.

well I'm just absolutely in love with this

Louina

Would loove to see Toras hair like this in the actual comic. Looks so hot and nice for a change of style! 🥰

SkellsBells

This is a very sweet scene but I’m tryin to figure out the writing on the wall... “Why [worry?] when you can shake ya booty”?

Airynelle

God I’ve fallen so in love with this series. The artwork is flawless and so beautiful, the characters of Poppy and Tora are adorable, hilarious and soooo damn sexy along with the oh so good sexual tension between them. Each chapter is so exciting and so long that I feel so satisfied each week even though I still need more. I do still end up rereading chapters and reading fanfiction a to hold me over until the next chapter 😂 I just feel so happy with everything about this series and can’t wait to see where it goes. I’m addicted. Thank you Lily so much for all the hard work, time, effort and details you put into every chapter. 🥰

Mookies

I love how sweet, gentle, and intimate this is . I recommend sitting with your partner like this and just staring into their eyes. Really deepens your connection .

Mookies

I need more low-ponytail Tora also

Irene A

Beautiful and sacred

Mary

Can you make this on canon?

Courtney

Kinda hope this comes up soon in comic. THEY both wearing similar clothes to whats currently present!

Emma

I would hang this on my wall

Amanda Patton

I honestly want this to be my phone screen so I look at this everyday all day

Jacinta

I just love how they care for each other. And the way he looks at her! My heart almost explodes every time!

Sans Foy

So apparently while I was doing the whole ugh gotta teach remotely for a year while my own kids are home and being jerkfaces thing you were getting Biz-Ay like dayum. Got to crawl down a really fun little rabbit hole tonight, thanks much. It’s been a week.
