Hi! I’m getting out of my art block!

It took me time but I have the will to draw again! I’m working on a more elaborate illustration but for now here’s a drawing of my dad OC!

Actually, I finally got a name for him! His name is Rio. I got it from this music artist I listen to at times called Rio Romeo. I’ve only seen 3-4 of their songs so I’m not a big fan but I like their music and felt the name matched.

In the drawing he’s just witnessed the murder of his wife and it about to seek revenge. I tried something a little different with the highlights and I’m figuring out backgrounds more! I’m still deciding how I feel about the sparkle highlights but I think it turned out pretty well.

I haven’t drawn him much in a while bc Inwas finding it hard to draw him as my style evolved so much and stuff especially with his face and proportions but I think I’m figuring it out. With his body I was kinda aiming for the Toji and Miguel Ohara skinny waist broad shoulders body type and I think I finally did that well!

Anyways, I hope you have a good day or night and if not I sincerely hope things get better for you <3 Goodbyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It wasn’t supposed to happen.

It was an accident I swear.

I didn’t know it would happen.

I just lost control.

I’m so sorry Darlin’. God please accept her like this, it was my fault, I didn’t know my powers would do this and get out of my control. I didn’t mean for her to turn into that, and now shes with you. Take care of her Lord, take care of the song in my heart, my Melody.

-----

Wolfe had warned me that using a blast core might yield more undesirable abilities . He was right, I could now turn people into monsters, like the world needed more monsters like the one I can turn into. And now I’ve proven to myself that no matter what, God will taunt and judge me for what I did to those outcasts. Now the last bit of my humanity is gone, dead and burning in front of me. I couldn’t bring myself to bury my love in that half, twisted form. I can at least scatter the ashes closer to heaven this way. The condolences from Kessler and Wolfe didn’t mean anything to me, their words empty. They said this wasn’t the first incident with newly activated conduits, countless innocents dead just because they wanted to help the unknown affliction plaguing the one they loved. Was it to this degree though? Death by Electrocution, Fire, Concrete, but what about Mutation? I couldn’t think of a worse hell then dying like Melody did. The screams and crying, it was enough to shatter what soul I had left.

No one should ever suffer at the hands of conduits. We aren’t natural, we’re experiments to most, horrors to others, I’m a monster in everyone’s eyes even though I look completely human. It can’t go on, more will end up like Melody if something isn’t done, no one needs to go through this pain and guilt. Even if this is a sick joke by God; taking away an innocent woman who just wanted to help, at least now she won’t see what I need to do. Conduits can’t go on existing in this world. Perhaps this was a test, perhaps now without the last thing binding me to my humanity I will be the one to destroy my wretched kind. Maybe God’s plan included my wife’s death so I can be the sword of god, a deathbringer to an inhuman race.

Maybe then I can rid this guilt and be reunited with her.

Happy Friday! Maybe for your Warden X Morrigan: "A nightmare comes true."

Happy Friday!! Thank you for the angsty prompt! I've been dying to write some angst but I hate choosing my own prompts. Getting them helps give me the kick in the pants I need to just write. So thank you!! For Max Amell x Morrigan. But as this is me, I couldn't just let it end sad. Under a cut because I want to spare anyone that this might trigger.

Content Warning: spouse death, death mention, grief, loss, character death Length: ~500 words

He had failed.  The letter fluttered to the floor of the grand suite in the Empress of Orlais’ palace.  Morrigan sank to the chair by her desk as the world faded to a soft buzzing.  She couldn’t believe it.  The words were written by his hand but the words were wrong.  That was not him.  That was not her Max.  She could picture his smiling face in her mind as he came back from where the Wardens had him going.  Morrigan remembered the first time he’d seen her quarters in the palace and the nerves there.  He’d thrown all of Thedas in disarray to find her when she’d disappeared with Kieran after the fight with the Archdemon, though Kieran had not been born yet.

I’d walk through the Fade itself if it meant finding you again.

The tears spilled down her cheeks as she stared down at the words written to her.  I’m sorry Morrigan.  The Calling has come for me.  I was too late.  I do not wish for you or Kieran to see me suffer from it so I will do as all Grey Wardens have done before me.  Stay safe my heart and stay strong for Kieran.  Know that I love the both of you with my whole heart and beyond.

She crumpled the paper and tossed it at the wall in a fit of fury.  That damnable taint had taken her love.  Her worst nightmare come to fruition and she was powerless to stop it.  There was no saving a Warden once the Calling came for them, they’d slowly succumb to the taint until they became the very things they hunted.  She covered her lips as the sobs trembled on them and she silently prayed to gods that no longer listened for some divine intervention.

“Morrigan?” Morrigan’s eyes shot open and she sat up in bed breathing rapidly as she struggled to orient herself.  Warm and familiar hands clasped her shoulders bringing her against his broad chest.  “A nightmare?”

Her fingers grasped at his arms, desperate for that connection that told her he was real.  The vestiges of her nightmare lingering in her mind.  “I dreamed you left us.”  He went still beside her before he leaned back.  Morrigan was surprised to find him holding her on his chest as he laid on his back grinning at her.  The same grin she’d feared she’d never see again.  She told him of her nightmare as she laid her cheek against his chest.

“I’ll never leave you and Kieran like that.  Not with a letter.”  In her mind, Morrigan knew that.  It was her heart that refused to listen.  She still found it hard to sleep, even with the reassuring beat of his heart beneath her.

HFD widow denied citizenship oath weeks after husband's death

Immigration authorities explained because her husband of 7 years died, her approval to take the oath was no longer valid.

[agoldenshinywireofhope]

How do I tell my coworker that, due to the negligence of our outpatient supervisors, the peace lily she received in memorial to her husband has been damaged by the children.

Like that, I guess.
