Another dump of doodles and sketches I've done of various WH40k characters that I haven't shared here yet. At least I'm pretty sure I haven't. I've been known to accidentally share repeats but oh well.
Rollgryn holding out baby Caiphus with bonus reaction from Diana
Royce meeting Caiphus based off a shitpost
Another meme redraw with Caiphus and Diana
...yet another redraw with Caiphus and Diana, corrupted edition
Idk that Caiphus and Diana would be open, even when corrupted, but the thought was funny
Gap and chaos AU Skuld ( @vatillly ) having a play date with some of their demonic beasts :3c
I figured out what the lil tabs on Gap's sleeves were.
Filled out a silly character meme for Jehoel that revealed he had zero Minecraft skills so Rat was going to teach him
Filled this out for @mininuked's Aliana and my Royce. I enjoy Royce and Jae in my game so far and even the history between Royce and Jehoel. But Aliana is this man's everything. This is his WIFE. Holy shit.
Had a request from @mininuked to do this for Royce/Ahn but they didn't specify which version of them till I'd already started on rogue trader Royce/Aliana so here we go.
Note: Ahn (Aliana) belongs to mininuked
Alas I have no art of them (yet)
How often do they sleep together?
From the first time they sleep aboard Blade's Edge. Royce offers up a guest suite if Aliana isn't comfortable with the idea of sharing his bed yet. Hell he'd probably even let her take his bed and he would move to the guest suite if that's what she wanted. From the get go this man is at her feet lmfao But he offers none the less and she asks if he's not interested in sharing to which he responds he's very interested in sharing. So they do. And so long as they're together, they'll be in the same bed.
Where do they sleep?
Royce's quarters, largely. Being a noble from a long-standing rogue trader lineage he's very accustomed to having a proper bed even before he inherited the warrent for himself. That said, I don't really imagine him complaining much if he has to sleep on something less comfortable or even a bedroll on the ground somewhere so long as he knows there's little other reasonable choice. But imagine him makin' a big stink if his wife has anything less.
How do they prepare to sleep?
Maybe Aliana has more of a routine to take care of her hair at the absolute least. She's probably preparing for bed for a while before Royce finally shows up. He spends that time getting last minute paperwork or meetings done etc because it's just efficient to spend the time getting more work done rather than laying seductively in bed only to pass out before she's ready to join him.
What do they wear to sleep?
I can see Royce having a luxurious set of pajamas though it might be rare to catch him wearing the full set. Usually just the pants or just the night shirt and absolutely neither one properly tied or such so the pants threaten to hang off his hips and lack of ass and the shirt hangs mostly open because this man is very proud of his sexy bare chest. I think he likes the idea of feeling very sexy in bed and what better way to feel sexy in bed than by being half-undressed?
Aliana can have whatever she wants. He will make sure she gets it. She often sleeps naked however lmao But I don't doubt there's a wardrobe with an extensive selection of sheer gowns and lingerie of various sorts.
Do they cuddle?
Yes if only because Royce is a very physically affectionate person almost regardless of which version you look at. Aliana likes spooning whether she's big or little.
What are their preferred sleep positions?
Aliana has a preference of not having her back to the door though this may not hold as strong in the Warhammer setting as others. Shuu would have to determine that much. Royce is usually a back and side sleeper, still sprawling some as other versions do.
How easy do they fall asleep?
Easy enough.
Do they toss and turn a lot?
Not really.
Do they snore?
Not enough to make any difference I think.
Who hogs the blanket?
Neither hogs them more than the other but even if Aliana took them, Royce would simply requisition more. And then if she took those as well there might have to be some sort of talk about it.
What do they dream about?
Look I think I just like giving my little guys some terrible abstract nightmares cuz I'd love to say there's something haunting Royce. But idk that for certain yet. They both probably have a fairly typical range of dreams.
How easily do they wake up?
As with other versions, Royce is able to wake quickly and promptly or at the potential of a threat. It's just who he is. I think some folks would be surprised by how readily Aliana is to wake as well, though. She may not look it entirely but I think she has a beautiful gracefulness of a predetor lurking just beneath the surface.
How awake are they afterwards?
Generally speaking they're both awake. Buuuuut I also don't doubt they have their moments where they'd much rather just lounge in bed together whether or not that works its way toward something slow and sensual.
I don't write a whole lot and maybe at some point I'll just put this up on AO3 or even just Toyhouse but for now I'm going to link this for those interested in reading anything about my WH40k OCs.
Notes: This is dubiously canon. I was mostly kicking around the idea of how such a reunion and conversation might go. There are details I don't have fleshed out so there's some placeholders involved. There's also liberties taken.
This piece is overall SFW but alludes to some NSFW things.
Warnings include canon typical things, mention of child death.
Aliana and Jaei belong to @mininuked
Borgr belongs to a non-Tumblr user (but he'd be a super star over here)

It was no secret that the Mourningstar had visitors; Another rogue trader had entered the sector and sent a shuttle to negotiate trades. It wasn’t atypical of their kind nor was it generally the business of the rejects and strike teams that milled about between their inquisitorial assignments. Jehoel, too, would have had little to no interest in the matter if it weren’t for the voice that interrupted a moment he’d been having with Borgr.
Short, sweet blurb featuring @mininuked‘s Ahn and Steph and how life changes with a baby on the way.
Reminder that you can always buy me a ko-fi if you like my work.
“Ahn...c’mon, gorgeous, time to wake up. You’re gonna be late.”
Soft words and soft fingers through dark hair. Ahn slept hunched over her workbench. Exhaustion seemed to touch everyone these days; RJ and Ahn hustled ‘till they couldn’t hustle anymore and Steph managed the home and Duncan and the baby. Even Duncan yawned his way through dinner and bathtime.
She felt bad; pregnancy left her restless and unable to settle. At night she tossed and turned, kicked and shifted. Some nights she wandered the house, tidying and retidying, starting and finishing menial projects until her body settled.
“Aliana…” Steph hummed. She bent to kiss her cheek, brush the tip of her nose against her ear. “Danny isn’t gonna cover for you again, sweetheart.”
Ahn groaned and stretched, scrubbed at her eyes. The bags beneath them were dark. All of her weight shifted upright, then into Stephanie. Gentler than anything Steph had seen her do before, Ahn rested her cheek along the growing bump.
Steph smiled, a soft, fond thing. “You’re gonna hurt your back sleeping like that, you know. You could stay in bed with RJ.” She carded her fingers through dark curls and over Ahn’s shoulders. “Don’t worry about me.”
“ ‘S my job, Sweetness, to worry about you. Both of you.” A yawn and her arms secured around Steph’s legs. If she could stay here, like this, all day, she would.
