I'm realizing I haven't been posting super frequently on here, so hi, so sorry about that! I was really excited to share this anyway though, I got this idea and it was one of those ones I completely focused on, working on no other drawings really, until I finished it. This is Cassian from Life of the party, and I just... I loved this moment, I loved when he got his henna back, I love his relationship with Lia, all of it. I LOVE IT!! And y'know that style of photography you see sometimes where it's half underwater? That's what I was going for with this! 💙🌊 drawing the water was actually SO fun.
I didn't make it for the intention of the weekly art prompt, but it kind of works for it anyway, the prompt this week was gold!! I loved drawing cassians gold details, expecially the henna in progress of re-applying magically! I am just a day late for the weekly prompt but ah, what can you do 🤷♂️
Here is my song for the LOTP weekly prompt, magic. I really hope you like it. Lyrics are below.
This one is based on the most recent episode of The Rising Dawn, A Merchant's Revenge Part 3, and the conversation that Vanden had with Astra. It's written from Vanden's perspective and is about how his relationship with magic has changed since the beginning of the show, especially as he's seen it be used for good by the others and is now becoming a lot more comfortable using it himself.
Lyrics:
I struggle to get the words out sometimes and say what I mean
But I'm glad you're here to listen to me
It's difficult for me to pretend like I don't care when you're family
And if we're not together then that's not fair
Oh, it's magic when you're by my side (and not the bad kind)
You've helped me reassess and realign
My priorities and wishes, set on a shooting star
I'm no longer afraid of the very thing we are
And I have you all to thank for all that
Oh, it's magic with you by my side (and it's the good kind)
Practice, Practice, Practice. In That Fucking Fire Poker, Cassian suggested finding a less cluttered space for Vanden to practice his magic, so Cassian helps Vanden find a new spot, and they do some arcane sparring together.
Life Of The Party Aesthetic: Elyse + Renard + Astra + Cassian + Boblem + Sariel
A lot can happen in a year. . .
Been a fan of @nyxrising for quite a while now and Episode 23 of @lifeofthepartydnd brought on All. Of. The. Feels. So, I present to you a little tribute to the latest collection of characters that have found a place in my heart <3.
P. S; THAT SCENE may inspire a future Renian board we shall see
Being royalty who at first hide it, have hair to the shoulders, emo horsegirl, travel with a bunch of people, romantically interested in an elf, not completely human, has dead parents, has a necklace, doesn't reveal their true identity at first, have had a sword held under their chin by said elf knife cat style
Cassian is always dressed to the nines. Coordinating colors, always in season. Tasteful jewelry, most handsome man in the world. Award winning style. Has upstaged royals at their own weddings.
And his boyfriend, who has been wearing the same hoodie everyday for maybe a month because it gets cold in the history department, who understands fashion in technicalities but can’t really be bothered to keep up with it when he’s got other more important things to deal with. Vanden, who may be just a little color blind and wears one black sock and one slightly off dark grey sock and it makes Cassian’s eye twitch when he realizes.
Hello! This is my song for the LOTP weekly prompt, ‘Courage.’ It is from Astra’s perspective and is about finding the courage to go back home and leave the other Dawnbringers, given the storyline in A Merchant’s Revenge.
I really loved this chapter (as always) and I’m so excited to see what comes next for all the characters.
Lyrics:
I have always known that I would leave
I have always known that brighter shores lie ahead of me
But I didn’t anticipate finding a family along the way
And they make it so much harder to go
I will find the courage to face what I know
To give up on adventure and freedoms for a home
Say goodbye to friends and fairer riches, farewell to something new
Discover familiar forest secrets and cope with the loss of you
Staying is easy but sometimes the hardest choice is right
Staying is easy but sometimes the hardest choice is goodbye
Goodbye
