#I want that man so badly

[sol-consort]

Might I offer a pretty turian I spotted in my play through of me3 who has lingered in the back of my mind ever since.

The dual-colored face paint really stuck with me, after having seen the same patterns in the same colors over and over in me2. At first I thought it was a graphics bug that my game had given me but I wasn't complaining at all, there was a different turian model on my screen after so long.

If I remember right, he was either arguing with the shopkeeper/bartender or checking surveillance systems nearby that kiosk where we meet up with our virmire survivor post citadel attack.

A turian so pretty I just had to spend hours studying his face paint in an attempt to replicate it. I found a clearer picture online that confirmed, yes, it is multicoloured and not a glitch

Left is extracted from the OG pic version.

Right is what I drew based on what i imagined the original symmetrical design to be.

I kept the wavy lines under the assumption that it's inspired by flower petals. I wanted a transparent bg, but the checkered design would've gotten lost with the tumblr bg.

My absolute favourite turian face paint design is this guy in here

Something about seeing hot pink on a guy makes me weak in the knees. Even though turians don't hold the same gender/colours associations humans do, to my ape brain, still makes him appear ten times more confident in his masculinity.

Finding out turians can use multiple colours in their face paints makes me wonder if it's like the human equivalent of country flags but for clans? Since a lot of the designs are similar in certian areas–those two top flower petals are found in 3 different designs....it could also be the Mass Effect devs copypasting to cut corners.

Either they're used as a symbol of something, maybe indicating a clan belongs to aristocracy, or it's just a common design in turian culture. Much like humans love rectangles and straight lines in their flags, turians love wavy and flowery/nature inspired ones? Nihlus markings almost look like the outline of a butterfly wing.

obsessed with baby queer buck and the hang-ups he probably doesn't even realize he has, let alone acknowledge.. newly realized bisexual evan buckley who didn't stop once to consider long-term commitment to a man he dated for 6 months as a viable option until josh spelled it out for him. and we've seen buck navigate romantic relationships before. he didn't do things by half-measure or shy away from grandiose declarations with abby or taylor. he knew he loved them without the need for an outsider's perspective. i don't think the cautiousness displayed in 806 was linked to tommy as an individual/lover so much as it was about building a life with a man — still a foreign concept, still a bit alien. not something buck could really envision for himself and by himself, unprompted (just like he remained unaware of his attraction to men until he was made to confront it with a kiss). that moment of hesitation wasn't because he was unattached to tommy or their relationship, quite the opposite according to the follow-up questions: if buck wasn't in love already, he was at least willing to be. yeah, he needed a little nudge from josh to reassess his feelings, to jump over that last barrier, but the very moment things clicked in his mind, buck was ready to cement their relationship, ready to wholeheartedly pursue a future with tommy, serious enough that he brought up the possibility of marriage someday (another first! not just first potential husband, but first potential spouse ever!!) — because buck doesn't see much value in waiting once he figures out what he wants.

Honestly I don't have much of an explanation outside of I like the irony of a Blind Watcher. And. Well. Grian is right there for things to go awry like that. So,

This was created for the 2024 Reverse Big Bang hosted by @mcytblraufest !! Us artists had to create artwork for the writers to claim this time around! >:)

and speaking of writers.. my art garnered the attention of not one, but two writers, who both created fanfics based off of my art!! It's been such a cool experience seeing how differently they've both taken things and they're both VERY WELL DONE!!!!!!!!

Parts make up a whole, but Mumbo hasn't been a part of anything for a very long time. He was okay with that though. The world was more than welcome to continue outside his window, as long as he had his oven and his cable tv all to himself. But every once in a while, the outside world comes inside, and he has to chase it back out with a broomstick. This time, his technique backfires in a way he never could have imagined. Or... Mumbo could count the number of his friends without even raising a hand. Who knew that a 30,000 year-old creature stealing his bed comforter could change that?

" Lost To The End " by Sary_Sary

Six months ago, Mumbo’s closest friend vanished without a trace, leaving nothing but unanswered questions. 6 months later, a strange creature appears in his bedroom, with no inkling of how or why. With no clue how this creature got there or what it wants, Mumbo is thrown into a whirlwind of confusion as he tries to figure out what is going on. Now, Mumbo has to continue trying to figure out where Grian went, all while learning what this creature even is, and how to help him without harming him in the process. To make matters worse, the only person who can help him unravel this mystery is the one person Mumbo swore he would never work with: Scar.

“You may now kiss the groom!”

The delicate, loving kiss shared between James and Regulus following that declaration was enough to have Barty grinning stupidly, happy that his friend had finally figured things out with James. After everything they had gone through, no one could argue against the fact that they deserved to have this.

Barty turned to share this sentiment with Evan, but the words died on his lips as he took in his friend’s expression. The corner of Evan’s mouth was pulling down ever so slightly, and even though he was clapping fairly enthusiastically, it was clear that something was bothering him.

“What’s wrong?” Barty murmured, reaching out a hand to touch Evan’s shoulder ever so lightly.

Evan startled at the contact before attempting to force a smile, which Barty just raised his eyebrows. Seeing that he wouldn’t be able to convince him, Evan dropped the act.

“It’s just,” he sighed, looking thoroughly dejected now, “seeing them up there, looking so happy together…”

He trailed off, forcing Barty to prompt, “Yes?”

When Evan looked up at him, it was with pain fresh in his gaze. “It makes me doubt that I’ll ever get to have that.”

The words, coupled with the sad tone and resigned expression, made Barty’s heart clench in his chest. He scoffed.

“Ridiculous,” he said.

Evan cut him a biting look. “What’s ridiculous?”

“The thought of you ending up sad and alone. I mean, have you ever looked in a mirror before? Add that to you being, well, you, and I don’t think it’s possible. Besides,” continued Barty, snaking a hand around Evan’s waist so he could pull him in and grin at him flirtatiously, “if we’re both still single by the time we’re thirty, give or take, I’ll just marry you myself. Easy.”

Evan made a noise of protest and pushed Barty’s hand away, but there was a hint of a smile in his face as he did so.

“You’re an idiot,” Evan said fondly, to which Barty immediately replied, “Only for you.”

And if that made a slight blush appear on Evan’s cheeks, well. Barty didn’t notice, because he had already gone back to cheering on the happy, newly-wedded couple.
