After seeing @felassan's post about there being two different versions of Neve and Taash's cards, I needed to sate my curiosity and went digging to see if I could different versions of the other companions as well.

Lo and behold, there are! I found them for every companion except for Emmrich. There's no way to say with absolute certainty which is the old version and which is the new; hopefully we can get some confirmation on this.

For the time being, I went ahead and marked the differences for those who have trouble spotting this sort of thing. Hopefully it's not too overwhelming for the ones that are very marked up, but I wanted to include some of the more mundane changes as well.

Neve — The biggest changes are the crossed leg (making her prosthetic more visible) as well as the metal rivet detailing on her outfit (see: the collar, the shoulder pads, the sleeves, the skirt portion). Some of what I'm calling the more "mundane" technical changes include the lighting and shadows on her staff, her nose, and her chest.

Taash — The most notable difference here is the coins (I didn't circle all the individual coins but you get the point) and the dragon in the background. In one version, the eye is more distinct, and a bottom row of teeth have been added to the dragon's jaw. There have also been changes made in the shading of her face. Her body shape (namely, the torso and her arms) have also been changed, as well as the general shape of the "spikes" on her hips and her shoulders.

Harding — Just a couple changes here. Her eye is more white/ghostly looking in one version, and the shading on her face and neck have changed.

Lucanis — LOTS of differences. They're pretty inconsequential, by which I mean there hasn't been any added/removed/changed symbolism in his card. The shading on his nose has changed, as well as the shading on his collar, hand, forearm, armpit (didn't circle this one oops), hips, and hip dagger. The purple "wisps" have changed in shape here and there. One of the orbs in the upper left have moved, and there is another orb above that one which has been removed/added.

Davrin — Just a few changes with Davrin, though they are big ones. His face/head has been changed, and the vallaslin has been redrawn. The scar on his eyebrow has also moved slightly.

Bellara — Bellara's head has shifted and her neck elongated/shortened. There are stars in the background and around her arm in one version.

As for Emmrich, I mentioned I could only find one version. I did compare the image we currently have with what I believe is the earliest Emmrich art that was shared with us (a cropped version of his card) by overlaying the two on Photoshop and didn't see any differences.

And that's it! You might have also noticed that some of the versions on the right hand side have a white line at the top of the image. Make of that what you will.

(People viewing this post on PC will have an easier time quickly clicking back and forth between the images to spot the difference. If you're on the mobile app and care enough to do so, you might have an easier time saving the images and flipping through them in your photo album. At least I know it's easier if you have an iPhone, I don't know about other models.)

YOU ARE SO SMART

[ID copied in alt text: a drawing of McCracken holding Mr Curtain. McCracken’s face is smug and he’s looking straight ahead not at mr curtain, who is clinging onto his neck and looking distressed and backwards at the ground. mr curtain is yelling “Put me down! McCracken! Put me down!” but the text is blurry and McCracken is indicated as “not listening”. both of them are blushing but mr curtain’s is worse. McCracken has one arm wrapped around his side holding his shoulder and the other wrapped underneath him. ]

You mentioned in one of your asks or posts that you might make a collection of your Burning Bright Verse, if that would be helpful. Do you still think about that? Because I'm gonna be honest, I'm obsessed and you've posted to many fics that function as stand alones as well that I'm getting overwhelmed and my brain is nagging me. I absolutely love what you've written and might start my 4th reread of the series ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I actually think about it at least once a week haha. I'm so glad you enjoy the series so much! Rereading is truly such a lovely compliment!

And absolutely definitely totally unrelated...does anyone know why a collection would not be showing up in the list lol? For me to add or invite a fic into?

i'm never not going mad over this. she is answering him. la revacholiere is there. she is someone, and she's waited so long to talk to him. she's never not seeing or hearing or feeling him. she is the rain and the sodium light she bathes him in. harry is begging into the void of a harrowing prerecorded message in an abandoned building and she picks up. to tell him that she has been here for three hundred years. just to show him that she is capable of an answer. that she has always been here; immaterial, ever-changing. that if her voice can reach him so earnestly, in this place of doomed hope and failed capitalist ventures, he can keep going. augh.

✂️ for august?

✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

When August was a little baby vamp, he was deathly scared of humans - they were his biggest fear. His parents would spin tales about human hunters and mobs and tell August that the cruel, nasty humans would rip him limb from limb if given the chance. He believed that humans were vampires natural predator...not the other way around.

He lived in a big stately home growing up, and his family had MANY blood bags. August used to avoid them like the plague, wouldn't even make eye contact. But he did feel sorry for them. One day when he'd been 'naughty', his mother dragged him kicking and screaming and locked him in the cellar overnight, where their human blood bags were kept, to teach him a lesson. Poor August pounded his tiny fists on the door and was hiccupping/crying/screaming for his mother to come back and save him. He really thought he was going to die. That the humans could get their revenge for what his family has done to them.

He's never been that scared in his life to this day.
