Dorian x Orym 💙💕 Critical Role fan-art

Dorian standing next to Beau and trying to show off his own abs (which are already constantly visible on account of his very sheer and open shirt) when Orym was talking to her about her work out routine was so funny of him, he really thought he might be facing competition for the affection of Orym (gay) from Beauregard (lesbian and taken)

Do you ever think about how Orym got his sword from Will, his shield from Derrig, and his armour from Dorian. Like this man is fully kitted out by the people he loves 🥹

Wait, is Orym's bananas high perception a trauma response to not spotting the assassins that killed his husband coming? Is it literally 'Nobody will ever be able to sneak up on the people I care about like that again?'
Like, in my head, I was going 'oh haha, this is Liam trying to make the perfect counter to someone like Vax, someone who can beat a high level rogue's minimum stealth role,' but like... in character? In character this is a man who has decided he'll never let anyone catch him unawares again.

Something I love about what’s going on in CR that you can only get in an actual play is the dual views of the past campaign characters.
When BH met up with Keyleth she appeared larger than life out of a tree and took them to Whitestone where they met the Lord and Lady. Who were intimidating and imposing and held Laudna’s potential resurrection in their hands. And then Pike came in to actually perform the resurrection, THE cleric of the Everlight on break from running her bakery.
And then the story switches to Vox Machina. Keyleth lost sleep coming up with titles for Bell’s Hells. Vex reassures The Voice of the Tempest that she’s a good leader and jokes about her grumpy old man husband. Pike and Grog are pissed out drunk in a bar and self-conscious about their bodies. Pike is depressed about Scanlan. Grog has no idea what’s going on with Ruidus. Percy is Exandrian Batman, eccentric and bizarre and still down bad for his wife. Scanlan is having a post-third-divorce quarter-life crisis. Cerkonos like sexual jokes.
They are legends of Exandria but they’re still dumbasses and I loved seeing it.

Do you ever think about how Caleb will live for nearly ten times longer than his actual lifespan because of the love he and Essek share?
Essek will probably name spells after his beloved partner long after he is gone. He will carry Caleb in his heart for all of his days.
One day when no one else remembers a dorky ginger wizard with a penchant for fire and cats, Essek may feel safe enough to use the name Widogast as his own.
What will this new world look like where Caleb has never tread but Essek loves him still?

everyone's favorite wizards commissioned by @that-wee-munchkin! they requested Caleb and Essek finally getting outside and enjoying some whisky hot chocolate at a campfire 🔥 a cozy early autumn night spent sharing stories and petting Frumpkins 🐱
thank you so much for commissioning me and giving me the sweetest prompt imaginable!

the way essek pauses & clearly gets flustered before saying he wants to talk to his partner before bed like honey no one is holding a gun to your head you dont HAVE to tell everyone how smitten you are but no they opened the floodgates & now he needs to mention his partner every 5 seconds or he'll die

happy valentine's day, friends! 💜
a week or so ago i ran a bunch of polls on what kind of shadowgast picture i should draw for v-day, and y'all have helped me build something really fun! especially with the three winners of the color poll (purple, teal, and orange!). i don't know how much of a 'regular shadowgast' this picture has turned out to be (regular shadowgast are probably studying ancient tomes in a dusty library as we speak), but let's say that i am giving you the plot bunny gift of figuring out the setting of this scene 😏
tip jar!

Caleb showing up to the Malleus Key wearing a purple scarf. Essek swearing in Zemnian and casting an amber dome. Something about the fingerprints you leave on your loved ones. Something about them becoming a part of you. Something about how to love a thing is to be changed by it.

just over a year ago, @saturdaysky commissioned me with an absolutely outstanding shadowgast prompt; namely, 'Caleb helping Essek put on a fancy outfit'. i'm sure you can imagine how ecstatic i was about it (just look at that line, every single word in it is designed to make me go heart eyes), and i'm finally finished and excited to post this bad boy. i hope you guys enjoy this picture too and my very optimistic wish is that it inspires all sorts of lovely stories in your minds 😏
sky gave me a beautiful prompt and a specific atmosphere/mood to depict, but was very patient and generous about letting me go wild on the actual posing, colors and details, so naturally i did 😂 my idea of using a mirror in the composition was admittedly rather ambitious, and lead me to reading up quite a bit on optics, the physics of reflections and reflections in art specifically (as well as the history of zippers and other closures!), so not only was this commission a delight from the point of view of its topic, but i also learned a fair amount of new stuff while working on it. honestly speaking, i like to think that the bookworm wizards would approve of my little adventure.
thank you for commissioning me! 💜
