Meet The Academic Collective
Suave... well, Suave has no idea who the Academic Collective are. Really, in most cases, that would be the end of the story. Unfortunately for him... well, it seems at least one of them is more than aware of who he is.
Normally the raccoon would want no part in any such activities that might draw more attention to himself. After all, with various figures on both sides of the law out to get him, it would only make sense to avoid such events.
However when he came to be approached by this 'Academic' who noted that Suave's latent elemental ability would be 'of interest' to their studies, the added suggestion that it would be 'unfortunate' if Suave were to be found by any of those looking for him rather tipped him off that he may not have much choice in the matter. Of course... the man was pleasant enough to offer up a light for Suave in these 'trying times' - alongside a ribbon that would certify Suave was a part of the study, and certainly not someone the authorities should be worrying themselves over.
Suave still has no idea who the Academic Collective are. But he's definitely come to the conclusion he doesn't like them.
A little bit last minute I'm afraid, but made it in time! Was hoping to get all my initiation pics done first, but I am not a fast artist and the clock's a-tickin'!

The ribbon also REALLY pops agains all other colors. You look at the thumbnail and your eyes already are drawn to it like damn.
Also I've gushed about this so much but I'll continue to do so, I LOVE this! Love the encroaching b/w, but leaving the center with the ribbon and cigarette in colour! Also, fuckin brilliant left hand on Suave there.
And thank you! Since I didn't have time to shade the piece I wanted to at least add something to make it visually a bit more interesting/feel less flat!
