✨️ Cassander but this time he's a Sero/Ioadinnis ✨️

For my birthday gift I commissioned @fawllyn to draw my most special son's modern AU/Blood Moon design! Because I port him just about everywhere and he needs that design versatility 😇

And Fallyn did such a good job!!! His face sparks so much joy!!!! Thank you so much for this, it's amazing and I will stare at it for the next month

[sunshinemage]

All my OCs enjoy a good kiss, platonic or romantic, but Cass would love to be friends with Oya and show them his affection if they let him 👀

they'll let him because he's way too charming for his own good ❤️

Blorbo gang's now complete! He's not really a new face, but I refrain from yelling about him a lot on main. He has a whole sideblog for that. What I will do is just make a little post that explains his gw2 backstory!

So without further ado, introducing... Well, Cassander!

Cass is Mordrem; he was one of the few saplings that awoke from a Blighting Tree deep in Maguuma who wasn't entirely independent of Mordremoth, but had some form of free will from him. That tree didn't produce many saplings, a mere four of them, and like their mother, they too had more of a control of their own. Some found it to be a tool of resistance more than others.

For the majority of his life, he never strayed from his birthplace, though he wished to many times. His Tree was not a very motherly nor pleasant one; he was deeply unhappy under her thumb (branch) but wasn't sure if there was a place for him out there. But when the Pact launched their campaign against Mordremoth, he saw a chance and turned his back, in spite of his grandfather's forceful call, to his fellow Mordrem and aided the Pact as much as he could.

He was notably present in the aftermath, when he helped Warmaster and scout Aisanne Bjornsdottir look for missing Pact soldiers. Now finally free of both Mordremoth's and his mother's influence, he remains untethered to either the Dream or the Nightmare, as his sylvari cousins on either side cannot unsee his Mordrem-like fangs and slightly clawed nails. The Soundless turn him down as well, uneasy about the presence of an open Mordrem in their midst.

So he wanders Tyria, with no place to call home, a loose Pact agent in everything but name, trying to reforge his identity in a completely new world.

Look at my son <3

[srslyarts]

first treat for the @wayfarer-exchange featuring @ladamebrunette Cass aka local best haired man 😌

[redwayfarers]

I am also putting this here for posterity but Antivan accent Cass!! The little melodic lilt!! I don't share my Cass voice AUs over here often or at all, but I do think he sounds an awful lot like Daniel Balavoine when he speaks and that he does have a Greek accent so the way that Zevran speaks in DAO absolutely fits that melodic lilt :>

6, 9, and 10 for the veilguard asks :3

Ty for dropping by <3

6. Do you have your Rook(s) planned out to any degree? If so, would you share some details or ideas you have?

I don't wanna plan in advance too much, as I don't know the deets yet and I don't wanna get attached to an outcome just yet, but given my love of Zevran & interest in Antiva, I am very likely going to make a Crow (maybe for that sweet, sweet Lucanis bird romance) or a Lord of Fortune (because I don't have a pirate OC + Rivain.) I am also thinking human, elf or Qunari because I'm not really a dwarf person. Here's a little post about potential designs!

That being said, if all else fails, I might be porting my... IF MC-turned-blorbo-turned-babygirl Cassander (who some might be familiar with since I yell about him all the time over on @redwayfarers and there's a lot of moot/interest crossover) into a half-elf bastard of a human noblewoman, who she absolutely loathes (as per Cassander lore) so she sells him to the Crows. I absolutely love placing him in saving the world situations because he's the worst type of hero even if he isn't a bad guy. He just wants to live his life, dude. Also a Lucanis bird romance. Bisexuals stay winning.

(For any crossover moots, this is my chance to feature more human-looking Cass, as well! Think this but with pointed ears :>)

9. Which romance, if any, do you plan to pursue first?

*looks at prev answer* ... Birb husband. Davrin is a close second, and then Taash... But Lucanis... Been yelling about him since the trailer dropped, really.

10. Which location are you most excited/hoping to explore in-game?

Answered here!

[just-eyris-things]

Fish lesbian. Horse bisexual. And Cass. ( @ladamebrunette )

[i-mybrunettelady]

He has his turquoise scarf! And I have another virtuoso <3

Cassander Inteus for @ladamebrunette 🧡❤️

give in to what i can’t disguise; cassander

y’all know the drill: a @wayfarer-exchange treat! this time it’s for @ladamebrunette and her wonderful wayfarer Cassander Inteus. 

It’s been less than a week since Cassander woke up on the Dareia after almost dying in Rona, and the man is testing Aeran’s patience like no one else can. (Aeran would much rather skim past the almost dying part, but true to form, he can’t forget. He can hardly close his eyes without seeing Cassander unmoving on the Count’s villa floor, as if he needed more fodder for nightmares.) He’s clearly still in pain, should very obviously be resting, and today he’s insisting on sparring.

“I can’t get out of practice now,” he’d insisted when Aeran had voiced his concerns. “Imagine arriving in Velantis only to discover, in front of a legion of guild mages, that I’ve gone so long without any sort of exertion that I’ve completely forgotten how to fight. Humiliating.” 

“Who cares what they think?” Aeran had asked, and Cassander had shrugged. 

“Certainly not me, but I do have a reputation to uphold, you know.” 

So here they are, despite Aeran’s better judgment, sparring on the deck of the ship. Aeran has been taking it as slow as he can without letting Cassander realize--he’ll never hear the end of it if he does--but Cassander’s injuries are clearly far more prevalent than he’s been pretending. He’s already out of breath and visibly struggling to stay on his feet.

“Let’s break,” Aeran calls, but Cassander’s expression is one of exhausted determination. 

“No.” He advances on Aeran with renewed vigor, which lasts until he stumbles on the approach and goes sprawling towards the deck. 

Aeran, who had been expecting something like this, catches him easily, and lowers them both down together.

“Let’s break,” Aeran says again, more insistently, and this time Cassander doesn’t argue. 

“Fuck me,” he says instead with a grimace, and Aeran sighs as he watches him attempt to scramble up into a sitting position. 

“You’re hurt, Cassander. You’re not doing yourself any favors by not fucking resting.”

“I’m not doing myself any favors by wasting away below deck, either.” 

“It’s been a week,” Aeran says with all the patience he can muster. “You aren’t wasting away, you’re recovering. You’re allowed to stop sometimes, you know that?” 

“Am I?” Cassander mutters. 

“You are,” Aeran says firmly. “This whole situation is fucking terrible. I get it. But you’re just going to hurt yourself again, and I--” He stumbles over his words, but he forces himself to press onwards. “I can’t watch that. Please don’t make me.” 

Something softens in Cassander’s frustrated gaze at that, and instead of continuing to try to get up, he leans back against Aeran’s chest. “I guess I can wait a few more days.” 

“Thank you.” 

Cassander shrugs, and this time when he looks up at Aeran there’s an absolute shit-eating grin on his face. “It’s not all bad, though. There are worse people’s arms to collapse into.” 

Aeran feels his face turn bright red as Cassander laughs. “I--you--shut up.” 

He loves him. It’s a relatively new realization, and it sends a shiver down Aeran’s spine every time he thinks it. Gods be fucking damned, he loves this ridiculous man. Cassander will be safe, Aeran promises himself. He will do whatever it takes to make it so.
