The Spear of Telesto

I finally received my masters degree, and now I'm a free person, yaaaaaay🎉 I now have free time and can draw whatever I want whenever, mwahaha

Anyway, here's a pic of Sanguinius to ✨️celebrate✨️

Bilberry

"Bilberry – Treachery"

From The Illustrated Language of Flowers 1856, compiled and edited by Mrs. L. Burke

[rosaalba-art]

My dnd character - Larendas Vorima, going by Lar. Former heir to a noble elven family, current nobody looking for his sole surviving family member

I wanted to paint him with flowers representing his story and character. For those interested, the list is below:

Larkspur - ficleness, haughtiness

Ivy - endurance, friendship

Honeysuckle - affection, love bond

Forget-me-not - devotion

Blue daisy - long-term loyalty, trust

Barberry - sourness of temper, petulance

Harebell - grief

Wheat - wealth and prosperity (not in his hands anymore)

Sanguinius's misbehaving children

[asheratt]

[soosmain]

Sanguinius, but i have the patience to draw my anatomical headcanons

This one's slightly older but i do think he has a habbit of Perching, maybe has some maglock mechanism on the soles of his boots to facilitate sticking to a surface since he lacks the talons for that

The implication of your non scattering good dad au intrigues me

Is he a good person finally or is he still a tyrant

Does one have to be a good person to be a good dad?

I'm glad you liked it!

I think you don't really have to be a good person to be a good dad (for a certain definition of good, after all, if you are not good yourself, you will have problems with teaching your children necessary values, and are you really a good parent without that?). Like, you could treat your children vastly different to how you treat everybody else. I cannot find real-world examples off the top of my head, but I can for sure say that being a good ruler and a good dad are not correlated. You can be a good ruler, bad dad (Peter the Great) or a good dad, bad ruler (Nicholas II). Or a bad ruler and a bad dad (looking at you, Henry VIII). Good ruler, good dad? Can't remember, sorry😅 I'm sure it's possible, though!

As for the Emperor, he is certainly a better person. I imagine that this led Erda to trust him with the well-being of their children more, thus scattering didn't happen (though I think chaos gods would still have to have tempered with the Geller field for primarchs to have warp-exposure to give Sang his wings). I think this means he leads with a gentler hand, but he still has to deal with chaos gods and that prevents him from being truly benevolent. Additionally, if Geller fields were tempered with and he and Erda had to rush to save their kids he would probably turn into a bit of a helicopter parent.

Oh, and I would like to think custodians actually like primarchs in this au and treat them as younger brothers:3

Fluff all around (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ

No scattering, good dad Emperor AU

I have no set headcanon for Sanguinius's childhood with the Blood. The one I prefer depends completely on my mood at a given day (I am most often in the mood to cry and chew glass btw)

These are two of the more angsty versions as opposed to the fluffiness of the found family root. The first is what is canon, I guess, with Sanguinius playing the role of a living God to his people. He is respected and adored, but completely removed from human closeness and affection. The second is the most painful one, with Sanguinius starting out as a slave. In this version, the only mutant tribes of pure blood would tolerate is the one providing them with free labor. I really liked a headcanon I met in several fics like "Konrad and Sanguinius take revenge on Horus" by kishiriaz and "Blood in the night" by WhiteWitchDark (primarchcest warning for both if you're not into that) where Sanguinius is not even a name, just a word to call all orphans/slaves which San kept out of spite and as a pledge of loyalty to his legion.

Although one of them is much more comfortable and happy (or at least less sad), neither are truly free.

P.S. I am writing out this post a second time btw, because the previous one literally vanished? Don't understand what happened. I clicked the button and left Tumblr, never checking if it appeared, and then didn't find it in the morning, not even in drafts. If it suddenly ulappears out of thin air, I'll be kinda mad

[rosaalba-art]

Just thought of something. As far as I understand, it's canon that Sanguinius is not supposed to fly, so his ability to lift himself up in the air is most likely warp-based.

And it's all good and stuff, until you remember that Sisters of Silence exist.

So, my question is: could it be that one of the first instances of Sanguinius meeting a Null was him literally crash-landing at her feet because he didn't know he probably shouldn't fly above one?:D

P.S I do recognize that is probably not how this works. After all, Sisters of Silence don't reveal to every passerby how the Emperor looks, simply see him as himself, so they probably do not cancel all warp-abilities of all psychers, but the mental image is just too good😅

P.P.S This maaaaaay also be a nice way to start a Sanguinius x Null!Reader story *insert a thousand terrible puns about him falling for you*

'Fishing Wall'

A Lamenters short

Brother Dadrail & Brother Kazryan share a small moment before a deadly mission, of which they will not return. They are not forgotten however. To lament, is to remember.

Just a happy little doodle of sanguinius and his mom/pa

Transcript/dyslexic fixed hopefully under the cut

Sang: I missed being home

Mapa: we missed you too little bird

Sang: How's atta? Mali?

Mapa: Happy, we are all very happy

Sang: good...

Sang: I thought you died...It's been a century

Mapa: we did

Sang: oh

Mapa: We still got to watch you grow, sweet little bird

Mapa: You were such a hideous baby

Sang: hey

Mapa: Perfect, ugly little baby who made all of our lives better

Forgot to write - when you first fell into our lives you had black hair, and then you spent so much time out that you burned it all off into this gold.

Mapa: Our Joy became our defender

Mapa: Then you went out to help so many people

Sang: I didn't-

Mapa: you did more than any one soul should have to do

Sang: I was made for-

Mapa: You're still one soul. One great, amazing soul, but still a boy. A boy who cried for days because his Atix died

Sang: I couldn't-

Mapa: you tried, you did more than anyone could dream of

Sang: but he- I couldn't- he- why did he? why?

Mapa: oh heart, you did so well. More than our sweet bird should have to do.

add: love hurts, but that love was good. I am so sorry for how it turned, but your love was brilliant to see admist this pained universe.

I love the aquiline nose you draw On Sanguinius! It gives him such a distinguished profile, as well as giving back to his bird-like traits!

Thank you, I'm glad you like it❤️

[rosaalba-art]

Faces of the Great Angel

I subscribe to the idea that Sanguinius has mild psyker abilities that allow him to sub/consciously change appearance according to his emotional state or preference. This was born out of that idea

[rosaalba-art]

Thought about pacing my posting just a lil bit, and then failed at the task miserably. Magnus the red, casual and formal, enjoy:)

(I swear to god, I love two types of profiles, and I will give them to as many primarchs as I can. Let's call it a passed down trait from their Dada. Like male pattern baldness. Yeah. The only reason Emps has hair is his psycher abilities. He bald as egg in truth. Lorgar, in his attempts to avoid sacrilege by shaving, instead reminds him how he should look like without magic woodooo. That's why he dislikes Lorgar. And also religious fanatisism a lil bit. But mostly baldness. Yeah.)
