Then... I guess I'll take your hand

[icon credit to @kresnikcest for the scan 💜] join Dolphin as she screams about Tales of Graces (and Asbel) specifically. feel free to ask me about my beloved WIP long fic (abbreviated to 2hcb1)! personal ramblings tagged under "dolphin noises"

[windor-truffle]

From the creator of angsty WIPs such as "what if Richard remained a monster in post game" and "what if Lambda tricked Asbel into killing Sophie" comes Dolphin's finest Graces fanfic scenario yet: What if Asbel had met Lambda on Lhant Hill as a kid instead of Sophie?

Dolphin awkwardly yet enthusiastically presents the frequently and mysteriously alluded to Tales of Graces long fic, working title "Two Hearts Could Be One"! An alternate universe in which Asbel and Lambda travel together, struggling to reconcile their flaws and learning to understand one another. One a martyr who'd sacrifice themselves to protect anything, the other a monster who'd sacrifice anything to protect themselves, both bonded in loneliness and bound in the same mind. Constant drama and angst guaranteed!* But stay tuned for that sweet happy?(???) ending after 25(?) chapters of the most emotionally gut-wrenching character drama a blorbo can endure!

Critics are calling it "Tales of Graces but better/worse," saying that the tone "ranges from bleak to hollow" and that "[Dolphin] should not have custody of Asbel" because "[Dolphin is] evil." Don't miss this chance to feel really depressed and distressed through the lens of what USED to be a chipper JRPG!!

Coming *eventually* to an Archive of Our Own near you!

*Contains graphic depictions of violence, possession, manipulation, body horror, and frequent suicidal ideation. Consult your local back arrow if you have concerns about problematic elements such as redemption arcs for abusive villains.

…while you still have the chance.

Day 5: I fear I can’t protect you this time; I fear there is no one who will stand by my side.

I’m so slooowww sobs

AU where Asbel stayed as a knight and consequently was forced to hunt down Richard when Cedric staged his coup. Perhaps Aston’s still alive, so Asbel can’t leave the knights because Cedric threatens to invade Lhant…? idk

A friend has been wanting to see Asbel chasing down Richard for a while, and like a good tomodachi I am here to deliver. Tbh, Asbel would probably still help Richard even if Lhant was being threatened, the dork.

…I also had another sad comic planned for later in the week but it seems I probably won’t have the time to draw it. Some other time, then ):

Cheribel Month  →  Week 4   Family, Promise 

It’s still cheribel month in our hearts! A promise is what bound this family together, and a promise is what will link Asbel and Cheria together, as they embark on this brand new journey of love - which will be equally as scary as it will be wonderful.

I sketched this project almost two years ago but quickly lost motivation. I started it again two weeks ago - what a few years can do for your skills! This is directly based off the amazing pengiechan’s fanfic, okaerinasai.

Found some old Tales sketches I did last year and fixed them up a little.

This makes me want to replay some Destiny R.

Day 4: Confession

(Here’s my confession I can’t draw hands so ignore those thank)

[sidereanuncia-blog-deactivated2]

30 Day Art Improvement Challenge Day 15/16 - Do a lineart/sketch, then swap it with a friend and colour each other’s pictures

So I might revisit this later (make it more dramatic, lightning, lighting, etc.) but I need to move on for now. I’m still really happy with how this looks, though, and I had a lot of fun colouring it.

Thanks to applepai for the incredibly cool sketch! I really enjoyed working with this one, and I think I will come back to it after this challenge is done to really do it justice. With lightning.

IT’S OKAY you can ask whoever you want ROFL

LambdaRichard Skit Faces

I tried experimenting with different expressions using the same picture so obviously I chose Richard as a test subject All edited from the Tales of Graces in game cutscenes

Feel free to use. No need to ask. Just don’t claim as your own.

[remanoirarchive]

richard and 2? :O

[artpharos]

This… didn’t turn out quite the way I wanted it to but yay colours!  also yes it’s my OTP because headcanon note to self: don’t over-complicate shading next time when aiming for nouveau art. I don’t even know what style this is in anymore OTL … I should really stop spamming ToG

[vyndahlia]

look at this shittily drawn comic i drew when i was talking about “what if lambda said things to people when asbel first meets them just to fuck with them” and luke was brought up.

asbel is so dense it would probably take him 2 yrs to figure out why people keep crying when he touches them.
