Show Yourself As...

@allymcfee, my beloved, thank you for the tag! I'm gonna do this one right away so I don't forget again!

Alright, let's go!

If you look at this and think to yourself, "she's basic," you would be correct.

Character was hard actually. In reality, I'd actually describe myself as an unholy blend of Gale's personality, with Karlach's optimism and Astarion's mannerisms, but I had to pick one, so alas, you get Gale. I'm not proud of it.

And that is a sticky toffee pudding, in case you're wondering.

The BOLD THE FACTS Tag

Tagged by @eljeebee thank you for the tag!!💙✨💙

The rules are simple! Tag people and name a character you want to know more about! If you want to let the person you tagged decide who to showcase, then don’t name a character and they can pick somebody. Easy! The person who is tagged will then bold the remarks below which apply to their character &, if they want to, include a picture with their reply!

You guys really seemed to like The Alpha so it's only right that I try this out with him.

Last line challenge!

thanks for the tag @w3rd0-artist!

seeing as my last sketches were all nsfw, I'll go with written works ^^'

She continued eating for a bit, going slow. It felt good to have something easy and comforting, warming her from the inside. It was one ache less, at the very least.

All the better for some company.

"Did you.. used to make this, back home?", she asked after a while, when the silence had taken over too much for her liking.

Dirak looked over to her, seemingly taken at least a little by surprise by the question. 

It took a little bit for him to respond.

"Yes. We make it when the little ones are sick.", he explained, eyes fixed on the wall across the room. "But my daughter only eats without the carrots." 

"I see." Lucia nodded, finishing off the rest, carefully handing him the bowl back. 

"There is more in the kitchen when you want.", he said, getting up to put the dish away. 

Lucia stopped him before he got too far, though. 

"Dirak?" 

"Hm?" 

Her mouth set in a tense line, just for a moment. "Thank you." 

He looked back at her, quiet. 

It would be hard for her, from now on. It would continue to be, for quite some time. 

At least, she wasn't alone. 

"No problem."

i got tagged ages ago in a "find the word in your wips challenge" by @bitchesofostwick and i've finally got round to it.

my words were fire, cup, fist, bite, and gentle.

i am so so bad at tagging people but if you want an excuse to do it then consider this your sign!! make sure you tag me in it when you're done! Your words are cold, press, night, hand and smile.

Fire - Sera x Astarion

Astarion looked up as he took a swig of wine, and almost spat it out.  Sera was walking back into camp after washing in the lake, and she was completely naked. She flopped down on her bedroll by the fire, and stretched out like a contented cat.  He didn't mean to keep staring, but he found he couldn't quite tear his eyes away.

Cup Mug - Sera and her twin brother, Ty

Ty sat down beside her. Sera didn't say anything, she just continued to stare forwards into the dark, sniffing occasionally and angrily wiping stray tears from her face. They remained together in comfortable silence for a few minutes, before Ty wordlessly pressed a mug into her hands.  “You’ll have to heat it up,” Ty said, quietly. “Took me ages to bloody find you.” “Some ranger you are,” Sera replied. She concentrated for a moment, her hands glowing with magic, and the liquid began to steam gently. Tentatively, she lifted it to her mouth and took a sip. Instantly recognising the flavour, she smiled and drank deeply.  "Thought it might perk you up a bit," Ty said, nudging her shoulder playfully.

Fist - @glamfellens’ wonderful D&D PC Aeres, and her boyfriend in our home game, James Blythe

“Aeres…” he repeated. “Wait here.” He scrambled to his feet, an idea coming to him as clear as the sky after a storm. It took him less than a minute to find what he was looking for, and he returned to sit in front of Aeres with his fist enclosed around something. Aeres raised an eyebrow suspiciously. “Hold out your hand.” “This better not be a spider or something…” James laughed again. “Just hold out your hand!” Aeres acquiesced, and James dropped a key into her waiting palm.

Bite - Aviv x Gortash

Enver watched as Aviv took a bite from the peach, and a small trickle of juice ran down her chin. He found himself wanting to clean it with his tongue, lick upwards to her lips and taste the sweetness of the fruit in her mouth. His desire for her was not unsurprising; he was far from the only person in the room with designs on her, but there was something… magnetic about her. Enver was drawn to her, like a moth to flame, and it was the sheer unfamiliarity of that, that piqued his curiosity.

Gentle - Sera x Astarion

The only noise was the quiet slosh of the water against the side of the tub, and the scratching of Sera’s hands on his scalp. Fresh tears rolled down Astarion’s cheeks, as she worked, washing all the blood from his hair, the water taking on a pink tinge around him.  He expected her to say something, to scold him, or argue, to challenge him, to do any of the things he was so used to when her altruism clashed with his selfishness. But there was nothing except her gentle, loving hands, tending to him in a way that was intensely alien, but nonetheless comforting.
