Updated portrait of Samaira Lavandros, Siradin and Tahir’s adopted daughter. There were things about her portrait that have bothered me for a long time, and she deserves so much better u.u It’s still far from perfect, and there are still things that could have used some more tweaking, but I’m so much happier with this version.

Samaira: In you go Mrs Williams.

Prisha: You’re drowning a teacher!

Samaira: Your point?

Samaira: My face is funnier than yours!

Prisha: Your face is always funnier than mine! (Tee hee)

Prisha: Don’t you drop me!

Samaira: Have I ever?

Prisha: All the time!

Prisha: Ow!

Samaira: (giggling)

I can't resist: 14 with Dillion and Samaria :>

14. on a bruise

“You’re limping.”

Dillion jumped slightly at Samaria’s words, the worry behindthem making his face go pink. He had only made it a few steps into her home andshe already caught on. His leg had already been bothering him since themorning, but he had opted to keep his cane folded up in his bag until he reallyneeded it.

“Oh. Y-yes, I uhm… m-may have taken a tumble in the marketearlier. And landed on my b-bad leg,” Dillion said sheepishly, shifting wherehe stood. He looked at Samaria, his face going even pinker at the soft,scolding look on her face. “I’m o-okay. It’s not that bad.”

Samaria’s cheeks puffed out slightly, her hands balling intoloose fists and resting on her hips. She only held the pose for a moment beforeshe reached out, taking one of Dillion’s hands in hers. “Come here.”

A small squeak left Dillion, and he easily followed Samaria,his hand squeezing against hers lightly. She led him to the couch, ploppingdown with a little less grace than what he intended to at her gesture.

“Let me see it,” Samaria said, and her own tone caused herto blink, her own cheeks turning pink. “Please, Leo?”

Dillion sighed softly, and it was more of an exhale to relaxmore than anything else. Still, he felt a little silly rolling up his pant leg,showing Samaria the damage from his fall. A nasty purple bruise had formed onhis knee in the hours since, and it was only a little bit scrapped up.

“Oh, Leo,” Samaria said softly, sitting down on the couchnext to him. She reached out, gently tracing over the bruise. Her touch waslight enough that it didn’t bring pain, and Dillion only felt the pressure fromit. “Does it still hurt?”

“Not the bruise, no. I was already having a bad leg day soit made it a bit sorer in general, but it’s not bad,” Dillion said, hand goingto mess with his earring briefly. When he saw the worry still creasing Samaria’sbrow, he offered her a smile, arm wrapping around her waist. “Please don’tworry, oraios. I have my cane in caseit gets worse.”

Samaria relaxed at that, her own small smile breakingthrough. Even with his reassurance, she raised two fingers to her lips, pressinga kiss to them. Dillion tilted his head in confusion, but squeaked as soon asSamaria tapped her fingers to the bruise lightly.

“Okay, but I’m going to keep some painkillers on hand incase it gets bad,” Samaria said, pointing a finger at him playfully. “Noarguing with me.”

“I wouldn’t dream of it,” Dillion said, unable to stop thewide smile from forming on his face.

Samaria’s cheeks puffed out again, but this time she wassmiling. She reached up, resting a hand on his neck to gently bring him in fora kiss. They were both smiling into it, but Dillion was the first to relax,pulling Samaria closer.

“You’re cute,” Dillion said once the kiss broke.

He laughed as Samaria swatted at him lightly, bringing herin for another kiss.

We are sisters.

And we are twins!

Everybody says we are a lot alike.

And we are...

...but we are also very different!

Prisha: Samaira is a drama queen!

Samaira: And Prisha is a reclusive artist!

Prisha: Not really reclusive...

Samaira: You are...

Thanks for reblogging the questions again! ❤ Siradin: 2, 14 Hadriel: 22, 24 Lotus: 1, 33 Samaira: 12, 31

Siradin: 2. Whodo they look to for guidance? - That’d vary a bit depending on which part of his life you’re looking at, and also what he needs help with. Throughout all of his life he’s been very close to his mother, and aside from the things he can’t talk to her about, she’s always been the person he turns to. In his early teens, he had his childhood friend and first love, Dari, to turn to, especially when it came to those sensitive, personal issues he couldn’t discuss with anyone else. Things obviously changed pretty drastically upon his arrival to Chamyra, and for a time, he didn’t have much outside of official advisors to turn to.Tahir becomes the first person there to offer both personal and political guidance. For as much as I joke about him just being a useless, ditzy pretty boy, he is a genuine asset to him, and he gives genuinely good counsel. Tahir is well read, he knows the city and it’s history, the culture and the language. He can offer a unique Chamyreen perspective to counter the very biased and often aggressive advice from his own countrymen. And even if Tahir has ulterior motives (at least in the beginning) they ultimately want the same thing, to keep the peace and avoid unnessecary bloodshed. Then of course there’s Noula. She goes very quickly from personal servant to official bonus mom (Siradin just really needs the presence of a good mom in his life). He comes to her for advice on anything ranging from “How do I take care of this kitten?” to “When torn between duty to your nation, your family, your subjects and your own heart, what do you do?”. Noula always offers good advice, or at the very least, a listening ear and very good hugs. 14. Whatis something that never fails to make them excited?- Hot guys? Ok, no, just kidding (am I really, though?). Hm, well, he’s the outdoorsy type, and Chamyra offer so many new things to experience! The landscape is so foreign, and everything is really exciting to him. Like, for example, he’s never seen the ocean before, and although finding it a little terrifying, and there are some parts he never learns to enjoy (ships are horrible and seafood is nasty and gross) it’s also fascinating. Like there’s this one scene I imagine where Tahir takes him to the beach one night to see bioluminescent plankton and it absolutely blows his mind. I can also imagine him witnessing a nest of sea turtles hatching and just being absolutely delighted. And I know that he’d love dolphins! On an unrelated note, I also think Siradin really likes dancing!Hadriel:22. Howindecisive are they?- Not... very much at all. He’s the type to just make a decision and run with it, and if that doesn’t seem to be working he’s more likely to jump the track than to slow down and think things through. It’s not that he doesn’t put any thought into the things he does, but he tends to trust his instincts. 24. Whatdo they think they’re good at, but aren’t?- Ok, the thing that instantly came to mind was this XD

Questionable risk assesment aside, I think he really overestimates his ability to judge people. I mean, it’s not necessarily that he’s bad at it, he can be quite brilliant in fact, but he lets his own feelings get in the way and is easily blindsided when it comes to the people close to him. Some of his biggest mistakes come out of him taking his loved ones for granted and not seeing how his own actions are hurting them or forcing them to act against him. Like how he never expected Tahir to warn Siradin about the conspiracy against him, or how he couldn’t see how his actions following that whole disaster drives Lotus closer and closer to the edge of what he can put up with. I think it all comes down to a serious lack of self-awareness. Lotus:1. Whodo they look up to?- I... don’t think there is anyone he really looks up to. He loves Hadriel of course, and there are moments where he might admire some of his actions, but he’s not deluded about him and knows better than to idolize him or see him as any kind of role model. He knows he’s a disaster of epic proportions u.u There are other people he is, or has been, fond of, like his close servant and friend, Calla, or his former work partner, Cassia, but they aren’t necessarily people he looks/looked up to. And then there are people he can respect for their good qualities or their actions, with or without any stronger feelings of affection (Mesheret and Siradin would fall under this category), but I wouldn’t go so far as to say he looks up to them.He’s such a cynical boy, I don’t know if he could ever find anyone he’d genuinely look up to. 33. Dothey have a signature accessory?- There’s the signet ring Hadriel gave him when he bought his freedom. He’s been wearing it every day for as long as they’ve been an actual couple. I also always draw him with teardrop-shaped earrings, so... unintentional signature accessory? Samaira: 12. Whatis the fastest way to upset them?- That’s an easy one! All you have to do is talk shit about either of her dads or uncle Hadriel. She’ll straight up punch anyone who talks badly of her family... or kick them in the shin with her very hard prosthetic foot u.u31. Dothey have a comfort food?-Uh... hm... That’s a very good question.I think just Noula’s cooking in general. Noula grew up in the Chamyreen countryside, so it’s rather different from the food you tend to find in the city. It’s simple and hearty and it tastes like home. Thank you! ❤

Lines for my current project, featuring Hadriel and Samaira. Samaira made matching flower crowns for them, and she’s so excited to show her favourite uncle how well she’s learning to walk with her pretty new prosthetic leg!
