False God
Bearing a Halo of thorns
Savior of none but the self
#flowerseller: volo#volo#pokemon legends arceus#pla volo#flowerseller art#noodle flowerseller#pokemon#quick sketch because I’m rusty#but look at him#looks like an an angel#but he’s the devil in disguise#got inspired by the one image of the sheep thanking the dog for protecting it from a wolf#but Volo ain’t no hound#and he certainly ain’t there to protect the herd that is Jubilife#at least not in a way that truly matters#:3c

$5 farmers market flowers + yard poppies and lambs ear and russian sage + exuberant vase (handmade)
#the flowers were marked $6 but the flowerseller insisted on only taking $5#which is incredible for kindness and surprise rate per dollar i think

AaaAAAAA hi hello thank you
I shall do both a RNG number roll and also if anyone wants to know more, the ask box is open! ;w;
3/6 = Emotional 3/8 = Have they ever been in love?
Hmm..HMMM, oh I have to think so very hard on this. Oooogh the anguish of indecision!
Very much so to both of their absolute glee and detriment. I think about them and my heart hurts genuinely ALSKSHJI
Neither one of them are very versed in romance so it started off very clumsy, especially on Volo's part because of well the…you know…Everything. But Euphorbia very much thought he was gorgeous right from the start but was concerned with survivng and gaining her footing so left it at "Oh hell yeah, a friend in this extremely isolating predicament AND he's nice to look at? Fuck yeah!" Which became "I've only had Volo for a day and if anything happened to him, I'd burn down this entire village and then throw myself on the pyre" (Hilariously seems to be standard fare after finding an ally where she is from, gets it honestly, I guess)
Both me and Noodle were actually very surprised at how well they meshed so early, since as a sort of tradition we keep certain details of our blorbos story/interaction locked so we draw out details organically. But it was like introducing two unhinged cats and expecting a slap fight but instead while they do push each other off counters and swat each other over the head just because they can, you are just as likely to see them asleep on the windowsill together.

Fantasy February - Day 12: (K)Night
@morrigan-sims ”Oh honey, what happened to you?” ”Don’t worry about me, you should have seen the other guy!” (More info and unedited cas pics under read more)
Another couple that was very dear to me. Ivy and Ayanya were just so adorable. Ivy was also the first character I didn’t already put in fantasy gear. So there we go, Lady Ivy and Flowerseller Ayanya.
Keep in mind, Ayanya is a trans woman and both her and Ivy are lesbians. Terfs are not welcome here.

Women and children found themselves increasingly banned from factory and industrial work in the later years of the nineteenth century, but they continued to struggle for a living in unregulated trades. Henry Mayhew, who observed the poor of London, gave this account of flowersellers in 1851:
Sunday is the best day for flowerselling . . . in the height and pride of the summer four hundred children were selling flowers on Sundays in the streets. The trade is almost entirely in the hands of children, the girls outnumbering the boys by more than eight to one. The ages of the girls vary from six twenty, few of the boys are older than twelve, and most of them are under ten.
Of flowergirls there are two classes. Some girls, and they are certainly the smaller class of the two, avail themselves to the sale of flowers in the streets for immoral purposes, or rather, they seek to eke out the small gains of their trade by such practices. Their ages are from fourteen to nineteen or twenty, and sometimes they remain out offering their flowers until late at night.
The other class of flowergirls is composed of girls who, wholly or partially, depend upon the sale of flowers for their own support or as an assistance for their parents. They are generally very persevering, more especially the younger children, who will run along barefooted, with their, 'Please, gentleman, do buy my flowers. Poor little girl!' or 'Please kind lady, buy my violets. O, do! please! Poor little girl! Do buy a bunch, please, kind lady!'

Oh like half of the FlowerSeller AU setting is built off of Ransei and feeds back into it. The man's may actually have a chance to meet one day in here.
If you have played Pokemon Conquest and Legends Arceus, I'd like to know what will happen if Nobunaga meets Volo.
#We also tweaked the human evolution aspect to make it a bit more like bloodline pacts with a patron pokemon#Among other things#Noodle would be able to give better specifics on just how these two particular fellas would interact though

Yes I am on a modern!Volo kick, this is his “good god how am I still alive I’m so tired” Era BABSBDJFFBEBFJV
This was meant to just be clothing wrinkle practice but my hand slipped
#noodle flowerseller#pokemon legends arceus#volo#flowerseller: volo#flowerseller art#pla volo#pokemon#arcanine#modern!Volo does in fact get a shiny Arcanine#and perhaps in a moment of sappy depression he names a mon of his for once#and perhaps yet he names this golden fella after his father 😔#modern!Volo is the polar opposite of Warlord!Volo yet they are one in the same

" mom, i think you should let red have sweets during the holidays. it's only fair. "
perhaps there’s a glimmer of amusement laced within the answering look she casts toward her, though not enough to dispel the general sense of disapproval that accompanies the silent hike of her brow. it’s obvious that she assumes collusion even without physical proof of it ----- he’s not here for her to scour his features in search of said proof, so she’ll settle with the gut suspicion of it and condemn him mentally, anyways. guilty until proven innocent. ❛ anne. ❜ given name is uttered with a chiding fondness only she could perfect, punctuated by a soft tut of tongue against palette. ❛ the two of you act as though i’m starving him. all i ask is for a little restraint. is that so terrible of me ? ❜

" you can't just keep ordering bouquets under random names ! i know it's you ! "
A SITUATION TO BE PLAYED DELICATELY. brows lift ever so subtly as he gently folds the paper he’d been perusing — stern jaws set with moderating concern. ah and just a dash of polite confusion. ❝ you seem upset. sit down , there’s tea in the pot — chamomile. it’s good for blood pressure. ❞ she’ll find he CAN do a great many things. he tends to be talented that way.

I am TEARING up fistfuls of grass SCREAMING crying SLURPING up worms from the churned earth and DISINTEGRATING into ashes wah wah WAH!!!!
Them them them!
Indeed though, she won't be public about it but if you fuck around you will find out with this woman. I think if she and Wander ever met through some sort of dimensional wuh oh they'd probably get along. She's nice so long as the other person is nice. 👀
@flower-seller 's character Euphorbia is very 🤝 Wander over being mistaken for a Zoroark, though i feel like she would look almost normal when standing next to our favorite albino ranger. He'd be the perfect lightningrod to take any bs off of her back by virtue of being a more obvious target. Which is hilarious because he's the chill person that tries to refrain from any violence. Euphorbia can and will fuck your shit up.
(Wander can too but he really doesnt want it to come to that. Man works with pokemon for a living and has overpowered Volo relatively easily on two separate occasions)
#Aaaah thank you for drawing my girl!#She looks so nice in your style wah WAHHH#I will be staring at this for many days#Love the expressions and linework#Salem Flowerseller#Flowerseller: Euphorbia
