A little nod to Nott the Brave / Veth Brenatto, with a button for the various characters of campaign 2~

Also if anyone is interested in what buttons I used for for each character~

pearly tears

rafayel x reader / mc | 384 words | hurt/comfort

after rafayel wakes up from a nightmare, he cant find MC

His hand felt heavy, rapidly moving against the weight of the water. Fighting an invisible force. For what? He wasn't sure. He just felt a sharp pain and anguish in his chest as he went against the tide.

Then he saw her. Slowly descending into the depths of the sea. Her eyes closed, mouth open. He reached out to her, she was almost in his hold when his vision was covered by sea foam.

Rafayel jolted awake. Sweat dripping from his forehead as he took in his surroundings. Right. He wasn't in the water, he was in his bedroom. The covers were sticking to him, a bit of the moon light creeping in from the courtains and his beloved was sleeping right next to him. He turned to see her.

Only to find an empty space.

The artist's breath quickened, his hand gripping the sheets that were supposed to be enveloping her. He looked around rapidly, searching for her. It was hard to tell what was going on now, his senses heightened yet he felt numb. His eyes observing but his vision was clouded. He didnt hear the bathroom door open.

Suddenly arms wrapped around him, holding him tight.

"Im here"

He turned around, cupping her cheecks in his hands to make sure she was real. His love wasn't dead. She was there. Rafayel burst into tears while she leaned into his touch. Her hand made its way to wipe them away as her facial expression changed to one of wonder.

"You cry pearls, how lovely"

Everytime she spoke it felt as if he was in a trance, her gentle voice a contrast to his desperate and anxious demeanor. But the comment only made him cry harder, the pearls growing in size. Quickly, the bed was covered in the shiny and soft object. The sound of them rolling off and hitting the floor was all that could be heard apart from the man's sobs.

Slowly, with her affection he started to calm down. Slim hands playing with his hair as soft lips kissed his jawline.

He moved to her lap, head in the crook of her neck as his arms tightened around her. The pearls had stopped flowing.

"Please... dont leave me..."

She smiled as she patted his back.

"Wouldnt even dream of it"

something something about Caleb Dume surviving the genocide of his people and divorcing himself from his culture and remaking himself entirely in order to survive

and something something about orphaned Ezra Bridger who loves Lothal but doesn’t quite belong being adopted into a self-made-cobbled-together family of outcasts from multiple cultures

and something something about Kanan choosing to embrace his culture and religion again despite his fear and the risk it brings to him and his family

and something something about Ezra embracing that culture as whole-heartedly as he can when so much of it has been lost

and something something about both of being denied the ability to practice certain aspects of their religion because otherwise they might be killed for it

and something something about Kanan remembering how Master Billaba carefully sheared his hair and oh so reverently plaited his Padawan braid and held it gently between her fingertips and told him she would do right by him and told him not to be afraid and told him she would be there for him until her dying breath and beyond and told him that he was going to be a great Jedi Knight one day and told him “you are our future youngling and I will do everything in my power to protect that future”

and something something about Kanan looking at Ezra’s wild hair with something hollow and aching tucked between his ribs because he longs to show Ezra the devotion his Master showed him and her Master showed before her and his Master before him but it’s not safe to gently plait that Padawan braid behind Ezra’s ear because such a sign of devotion will mean death and Kanan can only hope that Ezra understands how much Kanan loves him and how much Kanan is proud of him and how much hope and life he sees in his Padawan because while that Padawan braid may be the physical link between future and past tying together generations of Masters and Padawans who have lived and loved and passed on because “we are what they grow beyond”—

Kanan knows that every moment has led to this and Ezra is the future his Master and her Master before her never expected but they would be so proud to see Ezra now and Kanan can only hope Ezra knows how proud Kanan is of him too and know when he looks at Ezra he knows everything is going to be okay because “we are what they grow beyond” and despite everything that’s been lost to them Ezra is carrying the heart and soul of thousands of years of legacy and Kanan looks at Ezra knowing he can’t give him that Padawan braid but he’ll be damned if he can’t teach him the things that matter and he’ll be damned if he doesn’t do everything to protect the future he sees in Ezra’s eyes

Gonna hold off on continuing the story until I have more done, but here's some historical Vatore gameplay as a little treat. 🤭

[iintervallum]

empire siblings fanart! finally completed this wip, or to be more specific I got to a point where i'm happy with it lol.

[ID: First image is digital drawing of Beauregard Lionett and Caleb Widogast together standing by a bookshelf. Beau is pictured holding an open book, Caleb is pictured taking a book out of the shelf. The next two images are close ups of each characters face.]

[nellasbookplanet]

I'm incredibly soft about the fact that the people Caleb shares a sending stone with aren’t the mighty nein members who live furthest away, but the ones who live the closest. That, when also taking into account the easy invitation to dinner and request for a spare bedroom (and the mention that Caleb has the worst timing when calling, implying he calls often) makes so much known about their domestic lives. How often does Yasha make a quick call to invite Caleb for dinner to try some new (barely edible) dish? How often do Caleb and Beau stay up late doing research, with him staying the night in the guest room? How often does Caleb call in the middle of the night with a question?

The nein getting together for adventuring is fun, but man, I'd absolutely sit down for a few hours of them just being domestic and settled like this.

The LaDS boys as Animal Crossing villagers <3

Xavier / Sasha

A blond lazy bunny with sparkly eyes who seems like a jock at first. C'mon now. GENDER.

Zayne / Raymond

Look at me. Forget everything that's Raymond related and look at this objectively. An office cat who wears a tie and glasses. I know you see the resemblance even if you don't want to. I didn't want to.

Rafayel / Henry

I wish I could've given him an octopus villager but none of those fit him, however... A smug semi-aquatic animal with a constant blush? Sounds like him.

Sylus / Roscoe

Do you remember that 'taming Sylus' card? Yeah? Do you remember where MC got that idea? That's right, Sylus' horse. So who better to represent him than a cranky black horse with red eyes that wears a biker jacket?

Caleb / Peck

Of course I was going to give him a bird. Not only that, but a jock with red details in his design? And you could argue they're both brunets!

Headcanon that post-canon Caleb has never actually adopted a cat himself.  Rather, his friends are regularly gifting him a never-ending stream of cats, which over the years has included:

Schatz, a little munchkin cat from Veth, who delights in taking and hiding little trinkets around the house.  Many inkpots (not always empty), jacket buttons, and Dynasty-style earrings have been claimed for Schatz’ secret hoards over the years and she has no intention of stopping.

Dashilla, a gangly rescue cat with one eye from Jester and Fjord.  She appeared on their ship one day after they left port in Port Damali, and her favourite person in the entire world is Fjord.  They couldn’t keep her for allergy reasons, hence why she is now biting Caleb’s hand whenever he lets his guard down.

A fully grown moorbounder named Blümchen from Yasha, who bought her as a mount during a stopover in Asarius and really bonded with her.  Yasha returned home to Zadash with her; when the fantasy HOA objected, Beau joked that they should give Blümchen to Caleb and Yasha fully committed to the bit.

Charly, an absolutely enormous Norwegian forest cat which Caduceus found in the Savalirwood.  Spends his days climbing up to the roof to sunbathe and menacing all rodent lifeforms who so much as twitch a whisker in the cottage’s direction.

Motherfucker, a spotted cat from Beau.  Her name was originally going to be Professor, but Beau called her Motherfucker so much that it’s the only thing she responds to now.  Was found abandoned behind the Beaurebar one evening, and is the most affectionate cat in the world to everyone except for Beau (hence the name).  Also nicknamed “Pop Pop” because one simply cannot tell visitors that one’s cat is named Motherfucker.

A whole entire litter of kittens, also from Jester and Fjord, from a ship’s cat on a Stone’s Throw ship.  Their names are Brötchen, Pumpernickel, Knödel, Pfeffernüsse, and Spritzkuchen, and they came with a basket of the best (slightly stale) pastries from around the Lucidian Ocean.

Kaiser, the most regal stray that the streets of Darktow have ever produced.  Kingsley claims that the large roguish scar on his cheek is from Kaiser and that he needs someone to take this hellcat off his hands.  It would probably be more believable if Kaiser weren’t the laziest tyrant to ever claim the cat basket for himself.

Hansel and Gretel, separate presents from Astrid and Eadwulf respectively.  Hansel is both an apology and a bribe from Astrid for making Caleb the student counsellor at the Academy.  No explanation was given for Gretel, Eadwulf just knocked on his door one day, dumped a yowling tabby in Caleb’s arms, and left without saying anything.

Perle, a pure white cat who technically belongs to Essek.  Technically.  It’s just that he’s always on the move trying to avoid capture by both the Dynasty and the Empire, and he would really appreciate it if someone could look after his cat for him until things are a little safer?  Of course he would have to visit often to check in on Perle, and maybe his Zemnian friend too while he’s at it.

Love me some shadowgast!

Especially with the new lore popping up which makes me so happy!

Guess it’s time to commence with my newest cross-stitch project!

When it’s complete, it’ll be approximately:

9x16.6 inches on 18 count

50,500 stitches

Pattern created by me~

[critrolesideblog]

The frozen fields of Eiselcross stretched around Essek white as a sheet of fine paper waiting for something to be written upon it. Snow was falling lightly like feathers around him in large, puffy flakes that lent a hazy air to the morning that was dawning candy-pink to the east.

But Essek was not looking east.

In the west, a giant eagle in a familiar shade of orange was flying toward him, still far enough away to give the illusion of being small, but growing larger. It was at turns coasting, looping, diving, and soaring in a joyful dance, delighting in the fine weather. And perhaps -- Essek thought, hoped, dared to believe -- delighting in the thought of seeing him. His heart raced in time with the bird's dance.

Caleb landed at the edge of the icy plateau, transforming as he touched down and transitioning into a steady walk with an easy grace. The falling snow softened the edges of his form with their dreamy haze, allowing Essek first the bright copper of his hair and warm brown of his coat, then the striped, particolor pattern of his scarf, and at last his wide smile and blue eyes, like a star slowly sliding into focus in the lens of a telescope. He found he was smiling back.

And between one breath and the next it seemed, Caleb was there at last with his arms around him. Essek was stunned for an instant, as he often was by the Mighty Nein's ease with affection, but only for an instant. He wrapped his arms around Caleb in return, squeezing tightly to his chest the dream that was now a warm, solid reality in his arms. He basked in the warmth and the scent of him: woodsmoke, incense, leather, and parchment -- a scent he was pleasantly surprised to find familiar and comforting.

When Caleb finally released him, he did not go far. One of his hands came to rest on the side of Essek's neck, the other on his chest, and Essek mirrored him. Their cloudy breaths mingled in the few inches of space between them, and Essek found it an intimate thing, as if there was no space between them. There was Caleb. And there was Essek. And there was Caleb and Essek. He could feel the potential of it, electric and heavy in the air as dunamis.

"Shall we go on an adventure together?" Caleb asked, smiling, and Essek could feel the matrix of possibility shifting around them like snow in the breeze as he answered.

"Yes."
