Tav realizes she likes Astarion's fangs a little too much. For reasons yet undisclosed, Tav isn't too familiar with her tiefling instincts, but she's starting to learn the hard way. I have several headcanons about tiefling culture/biology, (maybe I'll write them up one day) one of which being that tieflings have a hardwired attraction to a nice set of fangs.

(NSFW filth from here onwards)

While tieflings mostly share similar sexual dimorphism characteristics with humans, one of the differences is that males tend to have more pronounced fangs than the females. Every tiefling is different and has their own preferences regarding gender/orientation, but during a tieflings heat/rut cycle, bigger, sharper teeth = better mating bite. Astarion isn't a tiefling, but well, I don't think Tav minds too much. ((Also sidenote: while the terms rut/heat usually refers to an affliction for males/females respectively, the terms are more or less interchangeable and not bound by gender/orientation/sex. Informally the terminology changes depending on whether the afflicted wants to breed or be bred. I'll let you guess which one Tav is, LOL))

The Embrace Still renders of a 3d sculpt I've been working on featuring Astarion and my Tav. Programs used: Zbrush (Modelling, posing) Blender (Rendering) and Photoshop (Cropping).

I have uncensored versions but Tumblr said no nipples or buttcheek sadly. I don't have Twitter or Bluesky but ill let you know if I ever make one to post the uncensored pics there!

As promised, here is the full, extremely self indulgent painting, haha. Haven't done a full digital painting in years so I think I am going to take a break from it for a hot minute and go back to the typical comics. If you want to know more about my Tav you can find writeups on my blog! (Bonus below)

What she sees vs what he sees

Did a quick pixel study of the usual bastard. Original is 128x128px but I've blown it up so it isn't minuscule on screen. This was super fun to do, I love pixel art but I haven't gotten the chance to do it in a while! Might make more...

Obligatory Catstarion post, with an additional cameo of my Tav as a cat. Big One-Orange-Braincell energy from her, lets be real. Also smashed together a quick animatic of Catstarion bringing her a "gift" in the morning, isn't he a little shit the best? If you're curious about my Tav, there's some more artwork on my blog like this one.

Your OC as a flower

I was tagged 9 million years ago by @again-please , thank you!!!! This was super fun to do.

These types of qiestions usually make me ponder a bit, so I was surpised when the answer came to me in almost no time at all, and a bit of research into what the flower represents in broader lore only cemented it.

The dandelion, though often considered an unsightly weed, has a long and storied history of both medicinal and culinary uses. The leaves are edible, the roots can be used roasted and used to brew a coffee-like drink, and the flowers can be used to make wine. The sap within its stem boasts several healing properties used across various cultures arond the world; it’s most common uses revolve around detoxifying the liver and remedying digestive issues. It’s healing properties and versatility reflect my Tav’s paladin class, and her desire to help those around her.

However, it is in the symbolism of the Dandelion that I see her most reflected. Like a weed, tieflings are often thought of as undesirables, and like tieflings, dandelions have a deeper and richer history then seen at first glance.

They are often seen as symbols of the sun, the arrival of spring, and of all things warm and pleasant. In Celtic Irish lore, they serve as one of the symbols of the Goddess Brigid, who was associated with the sun, Spring, fertility, and childbirth (often represented by lambs).

Tav’s sunny dispostion and warmth often serve as a foil to Astarion’s colder, harsher demeanor, and her initial innocence and naiveté could be likened to a lamb (her lamb/goat ears definitely support this theory, lol). Though, above all else, Dandelions represent perseverence and tenacity in harsh situations. They can grow and blossom in environments other flowers could never tolerate. My Tav might not be the smartest, or the fastest, but she can certainly take a beating and still be grinning afterward.

Thanks again for the fun prompt, it was super fun! Tagging @gilded-glitter @atsadi-shenanigans @mutualcombat @eraserspiral and @fireheartedpup (And anyone else who’s interested!)
