Saw this photo and couldn’t get it out of my head. The first person that came to mind was Briony like she would put her friends in a headlock if asked. So enjoy the gals just being gals drawing I had to get out of my head.

i am a demanding creature.  i am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable.  but i am your servant.  when you starve i will feed you;  when you are sick i will tend you.  i crawl at your feet;  for before your love,  your kisses,  i am debased.  FOR YOU ALONE I WILL BE WEAK.

the real reason goat farmer Ely au won't ever be a fully written fic is the amount of ocs I'd have to make to fill the small town she moved to

12, 18, 26, 29, and 30 for Kyrahlise/Shery??

Yes, I love them together so much! They are by far the sweetest ship I have! OTP Question Meme 12. Who initiates kisses? At first, Kyrah does most of the time. It would take Shery a while to get comfortable enough to initiate I think, but they even out more once she does. 18. Who leaves little notes in the other’s one lunch? (Bonus: what does it usually say?) Omg, they both do! Shery's are actual notes, "I love you!" "Have a great day" that sort of thing. Very sweet and uplifting notes. Whereas Kyrahlise leaves doodles with a cute little heart in the corner. 26. What would be their theme song? Instrumental: First Kiss by Anton Belov, it's tender, emotional, and sweet in a way that I feel perfectly suits them. Lyrical: Harbor by Vienna Teng, Shery is Kyrah's harbor to come home to when she's away on missions, and Kyrahlise is the harbor for Shery's heart. 29. One headcanon about this OTP that breaks your heart. Not actually a headcanon, but whenever I think about the possibility of Kyrah dying in the line of duty and leaving Shery behind I almost cry! Imagine waiting for the love of your life to come home, and instead you get a letter saying she died. Or worse yet, you find out when her body is brought back. And that's it, she's gone, there is nothing you could've done to protect her and you can't change what happened. It's just over, and you couldn't even be there in her final moments. Haha, it's fine I'm not getting misty-eyed thinking about this! <- That's a lie. 30. One headcanon about this OTP that mends it. Whenever Kyrahlise is away on a mission she draws the places she goes to and sends the drawings back to Shery. She knows Shery hasn't traveled, and it's her way of showing her the wider world without it possibly being overwhelming. Also, they like cuddle up together under a blanket while Kyrah reads a book aloud to Shery. She tries to get Shery to read some too, but I think Kyrah does most of the reading. Though she won't pick erotica to read this way because Shery would combust, lol!

… Nevermind. Forget surviving — he would rather throw himself out the nearest window than swear himself to this wishy washy hogwash. “Problem?” Blade asked mildly, raising an eyebrow. “No.” Thorne intoned. He sounded dead even to his ears. “Hm.” Blade didn’t say any more. Thorne had a feeling that he knew exactly what was going on.

[pirunika]

thinking about Blade and Eos again bc really technically speaking it really should be near impossible for them to Get Together

• the fact Eos is like a VERY much a law-abiding woman, she does not break rules and she's really harsh with those who do....(when she can be...so...recruits lol She gave up on other captains....WILL snitch tho)

• in the same manner,,,, she's someone who strictly follows orders, in the past she was way worse but its still obvious she holds her superiors (Blade for the longest time) in a high special regard and would do ANYTHING for them..... She's not someone with healthy boundaries and its so obvious to Everyone most of all Blade who's like....so conflicted about it beyond the rules....is she doing all these because she truly feels the same OR she's going along with it... (ofc she truly wants it but its kind of a valid concern..)

• She also cares a lot about her reputation as a woman, its very important since it doesnt come easy to her because of her looks, her size...her demeanour... Her first thought when doing anything is What would make me/us look Good and Respectful here whether its social interactions or missions.... So if there starts a rumor like OF Course he gave her the [redacted] position...only because she s sleeping with him.. That'd ruin her.

• of course there's Eos' belief that she's walking towards her death steadily - it's like a fixed point. And she does not want to leave anyone grieving behind. Her out of norm opinions about dying makes her rather accepting about this fact but she knows others dont think the same way and even though it'd be just as devastating if she died before getting all romantic it's still Different right? If you're 'together'. She's okay with others' death though lol

So normally it would take very long. Until after she saves the day. But i can also see them starting an affair of sorts but she's refusing to name...like its not friends with benefits that doesnt fit either of them its just 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫 shhhh there's nothing. Its like being in a relationship secretly but.....its a secret to them too dgfgfbdbvh

The bunny project

Wanless Journal entry #23

My day wasn't supposed to end up in a wild chase to find that stuffed rabbit Caine lost. (Note: Give the kid advice on how to not lose his things. Or other people's things.)

We did end up finding the rabbit near a bunch of small cats who tore that stuffed animal to it's last threads. I said to the kid to take it back, but Caine insisted his friend, Claire, wouldn't mind. Why he made that decision without Claire's input, I don't know. Nevertheless, I just offered to make him a new one. He was skeptical that I could sew and make things because in his words, "You just don't look like the type of man to do, like, crafty things, you know?". Like yeah, whatever that means. But I couldn't help but check my appearance earlier and I still don't get his point. But who cares, I don't know what someone "crafty" is supposed to look like.

But alas, it happened. And it...wasn't bad. The kid was happy. He gave me some weird card of Tallys(?) as a reward, which I just stuffed in my pocket. I was more annoyed he put his ENTIRE NAME on that damn board. Careless brat. Did no one teach him that his name could be used against him?

(Note: Force Red to give Caine lessons on magical name manipulation.)

Either way, I haven't gotten to sew anything for a while now that I have enough money not to refurbish clothes, so I might've pricked my fingers a few times. I had to use my only pillow to make that rabbit, but that's not really relevant, I'm used to sleeping on a flat surface most of the time anyways. Shery looked at me some weird way when I mentioned that fact, just like the time she found me sleeping on the floor one day. But her concern is not of my concern.

Gods, that girl cares too much.

But to end this stupid journal, that Shery, once again, somehow convinced me that I should do.

It...was fun. As long as he's happy, I'm hap- Why is this so embarrassing to write? It's not like anyone's gonna read this kak but me. I set up multiple enchantments so no one, especially Caine could find and open this book. Not that I'd expect him to read through people's things. He's a good kid.

This was meant to be the first picture in a series but ummm idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Rising from the dead to doodle my favourite boy from @shepherds-of-haven

[aylaaescar]

I hope it's not to late to ask some of the Romance Asks! I'd love to know 2, 12, 15, and 31 for Tysinno, please! Feel free to only do some if four it too much <3

absolutely not too late to ask, and thank you very much! I'm always happy to have an excuse to talk about Tysinno, and Tysinno/Ayla 🥰🖤

2. What was the first moment that they knew they were in love with their LI? 

the first minute he saw Ayla Aescar. love at first sight, y'all

jk nah. Tysinno knew he had feelings for her for a while, and was interested pretty early on (as early as Capra, after fighting Quiial.) but as of my typing this right now, I'm thinking he doesn't realize "oh, I'm in love with her" until a more mundane moment at the compound when they're spending time together. I have this headcanon that Ayla occasionally uses wind magic to mess with Tysinno when he's sparring or practicing something, like... using the wind to send a practice bullet straight into the ground instead of a target, lol, or pushing a dummy back when he's trying melee stuff. one such occasion, he rolls his eyes and jokingly glares as usual while she's snickering at him, and that's when he knows that he loves her.

(that said, I reserve the right to change my mind on The Moment (tm) as more of Ayla's days off come out! my answer might be different next year :D)

12. Do they have similar goals? If they clash, how do they deal?

I don't think they clash all that often, in terms of goals? they're both very similar people: they both want a community and a family, they're both wanderers who want to see more of the world, they both just generally want this feeling of peace, security, and understanding. they just get each other, so I feel like they're going to want the same things as a couple. stay with the Shepherds, travel the world, start a family at some point. I'm sure that they will clash on something there at some point, but I'm not entirely sure what?

maaaaybe on how many cats Tysinno can have, lol. I think he'd gladly take in every single cat he could if Ayla didn't put her foot down or set a limit or something.

15. Does their view of themselves differ from their partner’s view?

oh, absolutely. :') Tysinno doesn't have the best view of himself; he's struggled with self-loathing over what happened to Maj for the longest time, and he's really only just starting to cope with it as of chapter eight. he sees himself as a bad luck charm, and believes deep down that people are better off without him around. it's why he wandered for so long, and also why he left the Circle without giving his best friend Red a goodbye.

Ayla sees him differently, of course, as do I! Tysinno is aloof at first, but he's incredibly warm and sweet once you become friends, and will yell at gargoyles for you. he's got a dry wit that isn't nearly as overt as Chase's jokes, but still makes you laugh (especially if you have a morbid sense of humor.) he's a gifted artist and writer, he's compassionate and caring, he's just a lot better than he initially gives himself credit for at the start of SHOH. Ayla sees all of that in him, and I imagine that while she does understand why he feels the way he does about himself, she still challenges it and dares him to see the good in himself. which he does to her as well. :)

31. Share anything you would like about the couple!

Tysinno's working on learning Gangara in his spare time! he wants to be able to surprise Ayla by being able to speak to her in her first language.

in RPG terms, I like to think of them as a healer/tank couple.

this scene always makes me laugh, and was just one of many 😳😏 moments from Tysinno lol

an MC who's been without their hometown longer then they've been with it realizing they can't remember their parent's faces or anyone else from their village. it's all just impressions and general ideas. the layout has gotten fuzzy in their head

distressed b/c who else will remember them? don't they owe it to them b/c they're responsible for the village being gone in the first place?

[marzely]

I could not stop thinking about Solie with her parents ever since I started my replay of @shepherds-of-haven alpha demo. Solie is someone who honors her parents, through anyway possible her bow and arrow, her morality, and her happiness. When Halek tells Solie that he considers her family a First Family she can’t help but get a bit misty eyed (scaring Halek in the process) knowing how much that would have meant to them coming from the Sol.
