ALRIGHT, IM DONE!!!
AHHHHH this was a little big project I had in a while- I used to do these types of art sgdgdsg but anyway, it's been awhile since I've drawn these two.
I decided to give Baldwin a helmet-crown for ✨safety purposes✨
I tried to make the horse tack semi accurate for the time but umm I forgot to do a proper bridle so funny time traveling horse tack are my favorite genre in medieval documentaries and movies hehehe
I have to crunch the quality for this so DA link.
Tumblr media
So I saw a comment by @aurianavaloria in @somethingstrangeishere post (who is also drawing them playing polo together, I'm so excited to see this one!)
Also i used a reference
(Also fun fact, medieval horse saddles can injure or kill you, if you're unlucky)

Ok another request..
Saladin is coming back from a battle, absolutely tired, probably grumpy, the reader comes to cuddle him as he goes to bed hehehe (based on @somethingstrangeishere art hehehehe)
♡ My Comfort - Saladin x Reader ♡
Tumblr media
♡ Fluff ♡
A/N: Hey girl, this request is adorable omg I had to do it first. I have been dying to write this one since you sent it in 🩷😭. As always, this is based on the film Kingdom Of Heaven, not the real historical figures. Enjoy!
It was late afternoon when y/n received the news that her husband would be returning from battle that day. His army had been defeated by Jerusalem and word had already begun to spread around the kingdom.
From every corner of the castle, the young queen could hear servants whispering about the defeat. She knew how disappointed Saladin would be and the last thing he needed was to overhear some maid gossiping about his capability as sultan. 
She along with the servants awaited their arrival outside the palace.
As one by one the men and their horses came into view, y/n anxiously scanned the crowd for her husband. Relief washed over her as she watched him dismount his horse, staggering a bit as he did.
The young queen ran to him, tears welling in her eyes at finally seeing him again. The moment he saw her, the sultan's heart relaxed for the first time in weeks as he fell into her arms.
They embraced for a long while as others bustled around, paying them no mind.
Saladin rested his forehead against his wife's shoulder, struggling to keep himself upright from exhaustion. Being back in her presence was what he had craved for the entire time he was gone.
“I'm so glad you're safe” y/n spoke softly, her voice barely above a whisper.
The sultan, being too tired to even speak, simply nodded in reply.
“Let's get you inside” she added, placing a hand on the small of her husband's back to guide him gently into the building.
-----------------------
Once inside the royal chambers, y/n ran a warm bath as Saladin sat down groggily on the edge of their shared bed, removing his dirty clothes slowly.
The queen helped him into the bath and began to wash his hair, gently massaging the tension from his aching temples. The sultan sighed as warm water washed over his face, a few times almost dozing off only to be jolted awake again by the sudden image of the horrors seen in battle.
Each time, his wife would soothe him, reassuring him that he was safe now and there was nothing to worry about. 
Y/n helped her husband out of the bath, drying him gently with a soft towel. She ran the towel over his face, cupping his cheek in her hand.
“You're so beautiful, habibi” the young queen said, gazing into his eyes with only pure adoration in her heart.
Saladin smiled for the first time in what felt like months, his tired eyes looking into hers. He had missed her so deeply, he had yearned for her every second they were appart. The pain he felt from her absence resulted in only a few silent tears as he had stared blankly into a dying fire.
And now she was here, right in front of him. Finally. 
Saladin was more than relieved to finally lay his aching body into the comfort of a warm bed. Y/n tucked him in before climbing into the bed herself.
She opened her arms, gesturing for him to cuddle against her chest. The sultan smiled wearily and eagerly accepted the offer. Y/n stroked his still slightly damp hair softly, running her fingers through his dark curls.
“You need not give up on yourself, my dear” the queen said gently.
“You are a brilliant and powerful sultan, I know how strong you are. Please do not allow this to defeat you” she paused to press a kiss to his forehead.
“I love you so much habibi, never forget that”.
Saladin shut his eyes tightly, fighting back tears at her lovely words.
“You always know just what to say” he whispered, y/n could hear his voice trembling. She smiled down at him as he buried himself against her chest.
Her heart ached for him.
Her powerful husband lying broken in her arms, stifling tears like a frightened child trying to appear strong.
“You do not need to be strong for me, my love. Allow yourself to let go of your pain” y/n whispered.
Almost as soon as the words left her lips, Saladin’s silent tears turned to broken sobs. The young queen held him as he cried, rocking him back and forth gently all the while stroking his hair.
A few minutes passed before the sultan’s sobs died down. It wasn't long before he was deeply asleep, worn out completely.
Y/n smiled at her husband's form. She missed the feeling of him laying beside her at night. The room felt so cold and quiet without him. She would never admit this out loud but he looked adorable when he slept.
Buried comfortably into the soft of his wifes nightdress, snoring a little with his lips parted. It was rare that y/n saw him at such peace.
Pretty soon, the young queen joined her husband in rest. Neither of the two left each other's embrace for the entire night.

Sidi Mansour ~ Salah ad Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub
A halal story
Tumblr media
Summary:
She grapples with obedience and defiance. With faith and secrets.
She is the daughter of a man who will go down in history... infamously.
But what of her? What of her escape from him and the journey that follows?
A journey that will take her to her father's foe.
The most powerful warrior and conqueror the lands have seen in many years.
The Righteous Sultan.
Salah ad Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub.
Tumblr media
I have two chapter drafts, but the plot will need more time to be shaped into a short story format, which I’m still learning. But I’m happy with the idea so far. I don’t wanna give the hooks away yet, but I’ll only say that I came up with something in order to spite a certain ancestor of mine 🤭

He, Dreamless by nizzuto
Part 1 of I don't see the sun (I know it's there)
Through the tear-away of waves and the vastness of oceans and the separation of the three of them, there remains the legend of true love and the infinite fight to get back to it.
A gift for the incredibly talented @guarncre, whose gorgeous fic (and every single fic since) I adore so much. Few fics have so effectively simultaneously ripped me apart and put me back together, and swallowed me up with every word. These drawings have been a long time coming, but I really wanted to show my love for the fic by attempting to capture its evocative storytelling and imagery. And this is my call to everyone to go read it, now! Right now!
[Image description under cut]
[I.D.] Two digital drawings of Joe and Nicky, respectively, depicting scenes from nizzuto's fic He, Dreamless.
Joe is standing alone in a dark brick tower, visible down to his waist. His head is tilted down, his eyes closed, and he has a melancholy expression on his face. Only one of his arms is visible, his hand gently curled over his chest. His hair is long and loose, a few curls lit by moonlight. A deep red garment is draped over his shoulders. Behind him is a small arched window with bars, where a bright moon attempts to shine through. He is half-lit and half in shadow. A small signature in the bottom left corner reads, "Siggy, '23".
Nicky is sitting with his knees pulled up to his chest and his head tilted up and painted with bright, almost heavenly moonlight. He is in a hole underground, and the dark ground can be seen surrounding him. He is wearing a tattered uniform, the details of his clothes mostly hidden in shadow. His hair has been cut short and uneven, as has his beard. He is reaching up with one hand, the tip of his finger poking through the bars above his head. He wears an expression of longing. The moonlight is casting streaks through his fingers onto his face. He's looking at the same moon as Joe. The same signature as the first image is written on the bottom right corner.

Facts about the historical Saladin but it gets progressively more unhinged
Tumblr media
He played polo Now, this is common knowledge that he was an avid polo player and encourages a lot of people in his court to play it.
He assassinated two times and survived Order of the Assassins, I could talk all about it but to make it short, they tried to kill him and he survived, he was stabbed in, i think, the 2nd attempt
Told a guy to get out when he was dying I forgot where I read this but when he was dying (?) he was talking to his younger kids and some guy was there and just told him to get out
TW: FOR RACISM chronicler or poet either joke or mocked one of Saladin's Egyptian official and got exiled. "The writer Ibn Unain mocked Saladin's Egyptian officials, particularly the black Sudanese: 'If I were black with a head like an elephant, bulky forearms and a huge penis, then you would see to my needs.' Saladin exiled him for this impertinence."
Had a nephew that almost fucked himself to death "The royal doctor wrote Saladin's nephew a special work titled 'on sexual intercourse'" "Saladin's nephew Taqi Addin was his most talented general, but the most ambitious and debauched of the princes. His hobbies were so notorious that it was said his words were 'sweeter than a beating with a prostitute's slipper'….such were his priapic overindulgences that that he started losing weight, energy and erection….such that he cunsulted the jewish doctor maimonides…."
He had a giraffe So he had a giraffe and gave it to his nephew as a wedding gift, after that going straight to the crusades
Last 3 facts were from a book called Jerusalem: the biography by Simon sebag montefiore and thank you @gaudybaudy for sharing the book in the server!!
