this 13th century art from Al-Andalus is one of my favorite finds ever. I dressed with my Andalusi veil the other day and then saw this and it was like looking at a past life. She even has henna on her hands. (I was on a mission to find representations of its use in the peninsula).

And I love how her henna looks recently done perhaps even still with the paste on, while the other redhead at the other side looks like her tattoo has been there for days or weeks and it’s fading. The details are amazing!! Although don’t look too closely at the one in the middle, her clothing is… *ehem* rather light.

wasn’t around here yesterday but happy international men’s day to all the kings out there 👑💛 I love men fr fr

a scene from Heaven Can’t Wait in which they talk about rings

(Garnets had a lot of meanings and supposed uses, like protection against pestilence and plague, so I thought about linking it to his leprosy)

/kind of a work in progress. I thought of also making her tattoo some henna on him (on parts of his skin that would allow it)

[baudouinette]

Not sure if someone else has made it already, but I thought about the joke a while ago and forgot to do it 😭

Marrying Baldwin IV in Crusader Kings 🗿

Crusader Kings has to be one of the most hilarious games out there. Like, it enables me to be even more delulu, bc it lets you live your wildest dreams 😭😭 oh, you want to marry the Leper King? Sure, go ahead.

(Am I the only with this issue though?: his forehead clips through his mask and it’s bugging me. I do have a mod to change his appearance that goes more with KoH, but haven’t activated it yet)

Downside is that they made him completely infertile (understandably so) and that means that the only way to give him a seemingly direct heir is to ch3at on him 😭😭😭💔 I hate that, so once my Game Pass expires, I will buy the game on Steam and enter debug mode to modify his fertility. I can work with even a 1% lol but don’t make me ch3at on him ever again please 🥺 Like look at him, he has no idea (or he has and accepts Mélisende as his own). I even named her after his grandma I felt so bad ahhddhshhss

BUT I was able to make him live past 1185!!! I think in the best playthrough he managed to survive until 1192 🥹🥺

YESSS (kinda) 💜

buying the supplies to continue the mask soon 🙏🏼

Sorry if it looks like I’m flipping y’all off, but it’s as subtly as I could hold it in place lol

Lluna & Baudouin ❤️‍🩹⚜️👑👸🏽🤴🏼

from Heaven Can't Wait / AO3

[baudouinette]

Just a lil announcement:

I have a secondary Wattpad account (baudouinette) where I will be posting more original stories and novels as well as my own translations into Spanish.

Here is a little short story I am working on, with a prologue and dramatis personae for the moment (y tiene su traducción al español). Please read my disclaimers at the beginning. ❤️‍🩹

Would you also like me to upload it here? I have never posted my actual writings on tumblr but I can try to find the time.

For the moment it is not on AO3 but lmk if you’d like it there too.

SIBYLLE— 😰

(work in progress)

so cute ☺️ (ik it’s just a mask, but still)

(Ignore the weird line in the middle, halfway through the drawing I decided I wanted to extend it, so I had to change the aspect ratio of the canvas and now I have to try to match it to make it seamless 🥺👉🏻👈🏻)

This is for an illustrated scene from my story. There is another super interesting but obscure historical crusader in the scene who has something in common with Baldwin. Read if you want to find out who! (I am also planning on making an illustrated video just about this figure and his brave feat!)

[baudouinette]

Feck off, Renaud!

when you just wanna play as Baudouin in CK3 but Renaud jump scares you in the main menu

/fixing to add mods to this gameplay but wanted to try without first the other day

gamer girl Baldwin

adapted the mask to better fit my face (WIP) I think this one will be a prototype, and if in the future I can afford to make another one I def will. Bc I’d love to also make the “ornate/flowery” (armored Baldwin) version, and maybe a golden one 🫣

Heaven Can’t Wait | Baldwin IV - Chapter 6

Lluna slowly starts learning and coming to terms with what it will entail to have a husband with leprosy.

[baudouinette]

why are we like this

[baudouinette]

idk what this is or why I made it 😭

It’s kind of like a YTP + brainrot 😭😭💀

I’ve been watching ytps since I was 15 and it’s done a lot of damage lmao
