“Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die”

~ (varying sources including Saint Augustine, Nelson Mandela, Carrie Fischer etc. )

so quite a while back i made archer as a dragon in FR... it’s been a while, they added several new dragons, and one of them fit so well i had to get around to making him in that because while the other ones do fit him (and tbh i think their markings fit more), the banescale definitely fits him more than any other. so naturally i had to make him in that

couldn’t decide which combo i liked more so i did both. /smooches him and yes i used the female pose for him, it’s so much more dynamic than the male version

ARTEMIS         keen sense of a hunter, freckles like constellations on their skin, piercing eyes, disheveled braid, moonlight peeking through the shadows, the calm of the forest at night, lying on the grass and staring at the stars, mother doe and her fawn, protecting their kin, the moon shimmering on a still lake, quiver full of arrows resting against the bark of a tree, running with wolves, bonding while circled around a campfire, not being much of a people person, arrow hitting a target, popping egos, patience on 3%, touches heaven and returns howling

ATHENA         discerning gaze, unreadable face, the patience of a lifelong teacher, quiet museums, owl perched on their finger, armor that intimidates, eye for architecture, plays the sims for the sole purpose of building houses, studied the blade while everyone else was busy getting laid, big fan of logic, loves brain teasers, go-getter, balls of wool displayed on shelves, ancient buildings, sweaters in neutrals and cool colors, hair done up, can kill you with their brain, heads to the library often to research, sharpened pencils, abs that can cut steel, stoic statues, pottery classes

DEMETER         soil-covered hands, smile that can bloom flowers, skin loved by the sun, being the mom-friend, can lift you and your friends, flowers kept in the pockets of overalls, takes pride in their beautiful garden, speaks to their plants, leaves rustling in the wind, stalks of wheat, picking fruit, greenhouses, heart as strong as a mountain, values simplicity, daisies dotted across a collarbone, curls crowned with flowers, folded pile of sweaters in warm hues, pulling out fresh-baked bread out of the oven and the smell wafting through the air

DIONYSUS         drunk shitposter, on their sixth glass of wine before you’ve even finished your second, seductive smirks, untamed curls, rich fabrics on dark skin, sleek-furred panthers, theater masks, stage productions, receiving a standing ovation, rose caught between their teeth, being the baby of the bunch, wild parties that last from sundown to sunup, creeping vines, inspiring loyalty, grand opera houses, masquerade balls, rolls of film, shattered chandeliers with broken glass scattered across the wine-spilled floor, pouring champagne into flutes, lives for the applause

HEPHAESTUS         the calloused hands of someone who knows labor, sweaty brow, flame burning in their eyes, inventive mind, broad shoulders, steampunk goggles, nuts and bolts stored away in little boxes, ashes, striking a match, blueprints for future projects, fixing up a busted up car and giving it cool upgrades, wrestles with bitterness, work boots have seen better years, wrinkled plaid shirts, iron melted in blazing fire, huge jackets, crafting masterpieces, greased-stained overalls, fascination with robotics, pain is fuel, stack of weaponry, even their muscles have muscles

HERA         resting bitch face, dressed to the nines, cows grazing on a pasture, cool rain, loving and hating fiercely, hand clutching a string of pearls, large chandelier with glittering crystals, plays the sims for the sole purpose of killing off their sims, romance to realism, pictures of the sky while flying on a plane, files that under fuck it, downs glasses of wine as they relax with a scented bubble bath and netflix, like their selfie or you’re grounded, knows 57 convenient ways to murder a man, dark eyes that penetrate your soul, marble and gold

HERMES         devil-may-care smile, ink-stained hands, always up-to-date on the latest technology, will steal your french fries, does it for the vine, shitposter, puts googly eyes on everything, meme hoarder, long drives on the highway, ma and pop diners, spontaneous road trips, folded maps, fingers dancing across the keyboard of a laptop, shooting hoops on the basketball court, chatting up strangers as you all journey to your own destinations, goes jogging in the morning, mixes redbull with coffee, menace on april fool’s, hoodies and sneakers

POSEIDON         storm with skin, colorful coral reefs, waves crashing against the shore, the sea casting its spell, stroking the soft fur of a cat, their heart pounding as their horse’s gentle trot speeds into a gallop, tousled locks, clothes smeared with paint, owns several sketchbooks yet always yearns for more, leather jackets, fondness for diy projects, handwriting that flows across the page, nimble fingers playing the strings of a violin, velvety singing voice that haunts your dreams, mood as ever-changing as the sea, the roar of a motorcycle, compass with a spinning arrow

ZEUS         thunder in their heart, running on coffee, flash of lightning, natural charisma, eloquence, badass in a nice suit, aficionado of history, force of nature, lenny face, pretends they don’t have feelings but they do, nightmare-filled nights, proud arm around their lover’s waist, high-rise buildings, planes soaring through a cloudless sky, technician on the piano, maintains order, strong handshake, juggling multiple events on their busy schedule with ease, most likely to be voted class president out of their peers (even when he didn’t enter himself), expensive watch

Some are gonna be obvious, some not so much. Always a WIP and prone to being edited. If you have ideas for what else to add here feel free to let me know.

BROTHERS KARAMAZOV : orthodox monasteries,  deep woods,  starry nights,  the sound of paper being torn,  dimly lit rooms,  withered roses,  an unfinished letter,  piles of books,  the sound of shattering glass,  ticking of clocks in a silent house,  heavy wooden furniture,  the air before a storm,  the smell of earth,  a crowd of people dressed in black,  distant murmurs,  emptied streets,  the fear of walking alone in dusk.

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT : coldness of the skin against a blade,  slender pale fingers and slightly shaking hands,  a red stain blooming on white fabric,  lonely steps in a corridor,   the slow dripping of water,  looking out of the window into the thickening darkness,  a single dying candle on the table,  listening to one’s breath and counting heartbeats,  too many stairs,  the desire to be invisible,  a subtle memory of kind words.

THE IDIOT : classical statues,  wealth covered with dust,  a dark house tainted with inherited madness,  an unsettling feeling,  long walks in a park,  useless chatter,  a silken ribbon forgotten on a bench,  a melancholic face,  an unexpected spring rain,  the joy of reading one’s favorite book,  the clarity of mind after fully perceiving the world around,  looking at cloudless sky.

ANNA KARENINA : fields of crops,  flowers brought from an early morning walk,  the wind caressing a girl’s hair,  a bowl of fruit,  the smell of ripe pears,  the clatter of a spoon against porcelain when stirring tea,  children’s laughter coming from the garden,  soft sunlight and white curtains,  the sensation of velvet against skin,  pearls from a ripped necklace spilling on marble floor,  a sudden silence in a room full of people.

WAR AND PEACE : a glass of wine,  the brightness of a crystal chandelier,  white lace,  a raging snow storm,  the sound of a door being gently closed,  the moment of holding one’s breath before walking in a ballroom,  indulging in looking at a beautiful earring against light,  closing one’s eyes for a moment while dancing,  the sweet smell of strawberries,  a pair of gloves left on an armchair,  light scent of powder.

THE MASTER AND MARGARITA : the chaos of a lively city,  ambient jazz in expensive restaurants,  jumping on a moving tram,  the sight of Moscow from the roof of a house,  yellow flowers in a vase,  leaning out of the window,  shelves stacked with books,  a small tin box with old photographs,  strange shapes in the night sky,  laughing in the middle of the night on a balcony,  colorful posters for a surreptitious magician’s show floating in the wind.

EUGENE ONEGIN : a lonely mansion,  reading a book in the parlor,  faint piano melody lingering in falling silence,  long evenings,  passing seasons,  discussing french novels of the moment,  unspoken thoughts,  leaning against the door frame,  quickly averted glance,  eating a peach absent-minded,  bright mornings,  footprints in snow,  a loud gun-shot terrifying a flock of birds nearby.

FATHERS AND SONS : birch groves,  morning mist,  moss covered stones near a moor,  scientific books,  white roses,  cheap champagne,  shabby pocket-watch,  light-hearted irony,  a maladroit cello sonata,  freshly mowed grass,  leaving thoughts come and go,  a slow yawn,  picturesque plates and bowls filled with traditional dishes,  drinking tea on the porch.

DOCTOR ZHIVAGO : a strange feeling of loss,  writing poems in a diary,  traveling by train,  the hesitation before touching someone’s hand,  the gaze of one lost in thought,  the warmth of cinnamon,  a scarf brightly embellished with flowers,  a glass of water,  a threadbare jacket,  the tempting void,  the evanescent serenity of yesterday.

CHERRY ORCHARD : a lone chair in an empty room,  falling blossoms,  old samovar,  the unsettling need for change,  a mirror reflecting full moon,  the disappointment of a glossy object turning worthless after second glance,  a piano out of tune.

❝ MACBETH :

the howl of wolves.   moonless nights.   dirt under fingernails.   stained silk.   chattering teeth.   voices hoarse and cracked.   rotting fruit.   echoing drums.   dry heaving.   hanging cobwebs.   stifling humidity.   bloodshot eyes.   the roughness of rusted steel.   wild rosebushes.   muscle cramps.   the sound of splintering wood.

❝ A MIDNIGHT SUMMER’S DREAM :

crackling fires.   ivy crawling on stone.   the faint music of running water.   dirty.   bare feet.    tattered clothing.   thistledown.   wilted wildflower crowns.   late evening birdsong.   curling leaves.   a symphony of croaking frogs.   drifting feathers.   the eerie sound of windchimes at night.   humming bees.   beds of clover.

❝ ROMEO & JULIET :

warm golden lamplight.   worn shoes.   crumbling brick walls.   whispered poetry.   embroidered satin.   cool, hazy mornings.   tousled hair.   rosewater.   flushed cheeks.   distant orchestras.   unfinished marble statues.   cobblestone streets.   loose threads.   ink smudged on parchment.   tapping fingers.   dust illuminated by sunlight.   poison vials.

❝ HAMLET :

shattered glass.   a cluster of fraying ribbons.   unanswered knocks on doors.   lingering dampness.   white noise.   inexplicable drafts.   migraines.   bleeding ears.   the taste of metal.   reflected mirrors.   dry, cracked lips.   the sound of tearing paper.   fogged windows.   memories of dreams.   tarnished silver.   protruding veins.

CITY AESTHETIC

smoke escaping a dark alley.  speckled lights up a skyscraper at night.  the business of the morning rush to work.  the smell of freshly baked bread and pastries from bakeries in the early morning.  the crack of dawn walk of shame.  lines of cabs and buses filling the main streets.  sunrise breaking over the horizon.  neons flashing against brick.  lightning cracks upon the pavements.  sunset streaming through the buildings.  a theater district full of tourists and performers.  night time rain hitting long glass windows.  activity on every street corner.  shattered glass littering the concrete.  wind tunnels passing through a maze of buildings.  churches nestled within high rises.  breakfast on a small balcony.  sirens echoing and bouncing off the inner city walls.  dirty rivers breaking up the concrete jungle.

SEASON CHANGES

burnt orange of autumn leaves.  light white snow of winter.  midday sunshine of summer.  blooming flower bushes in spring.  crystal canals littered with houseboats.  dusk falling.  lights flickering on.  lightning striking the tops of skyscrapers.  vague reflections in the water of fountains.  cigarette ash in the gutter.  darkened and emptied side streets.  lines of people and chatter outside of clubs.  fire escapes trailing down the sides of buildings.  high ceilings in industrial studio apartments.  rainbow hues reflected in glass.  cityscape views from monuments.  rain gutters swelling during heavy rainfall.  a park oasis in the middle of the city.  new years fireworks lighting up the night sky.  airplane trails littering the sky.  polished corner offices.  strip club pamphlets strewn across the damp footpath.  rooftop gardens.  oil pools staining asphalt.  skyscrapers protruding thick cloud.  helicopter spotlights.  litter piles surrounding dumpsters nestled down alleyways.  window displays of designer stores.  streets lined with trees.  the contrast of the white paint and asphalt at crossings.  street views from the bathroom windows.  low lit bars permeating red light.  stark white art galleries.  colored gas thrown across riot lines.  the constant stream of data upon stock market screens.  cabs rushing by bus shelters.  rain water being splashed over sidewalk edges by fast moving cars.  faded posters on the subway.
