HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL SOUZA 15.09 🤎🖋️🔶

*Rhys voice* “There you are, I’ve been looking for you.”

“I spent centuries wandering the world, from empires to kingdoms to wastelands, never settling, never stopping-not for one moment. I was always looking toward the horizon, always wondering what waited across the next ocean, over the next mountain. But I think ... I think that whole time, all those centuries, I was just looking for you.”

Heir of Fire: Rowan grinned. "There you are." Blood - her blood - was on his teeth, on his mouth and chin. And those dead eyes glowed as he spat her blood onto the earth. She probably tasted like a sewer to him.

Queen of Shadows: Gods, that scent. From the moment he'd bitten her neck in Wendlyn, the moment he'd tasted her blood and loathed the beckoning wildfire that crackled in it, he'd been unable to get it out of his system.

so like imagine Undertale characters but they're all crafts supplies (Undyne and Alphys) (Toriel and Asgore)

Astarion’s first impressions of my tav Cain, because playing a good aligned paladin with a charlatan background is really, truly, deeply hilarious. I loved lying at every possible opportunity to make my life easier. I wish there wasn’t a cap on inspiration points because I was getting it left and right from cain and astarion combined.

Both would be ideal tho.

God this panel kinda drives me crazy. From Batman & the Outsiders #17, Shiva asks Duke about his suit, whether it was his choice. And how does Duke respond? He... doesn't. He parrots what is clearly something Bruce said to him, but never clarifies whether it was 'his choice' at all. Because both him and Shiva know it wasn't. And he acknowledges that his suit, with all the Batty-ness (ears, symbol), was specifically designed to make him like Batman.

Then Shiva suggests dark red, which is what Duke wore in We Are Robin and has connotations to Robin as a whole. Duke's reaction - can we let it go? - can be read in many ways, but to me it suggests Shiva's words hit home. He does miss the Robin colours. Becoming the Signal wasn't his choice, but becoming Robin was.

(And throughout this run, Shiva says both Cass and Duke are being held back by Bruce. With Cass this is a clear allusion to being Orphan over Batgirl, so it's not farfetched to read this conversation as being about how Duke was denied Robin to become Signal).

Duke-as-Signal is a symbol of 'people like Batman', but Duke-as-Robin was a symbol of youth, of community, of diversity and of choice. He was a Robin formed without Batman. I know there's no going back, but having Bruce choose the name, the suit, and the time of day that Duke goes out makes the Signal such a fraught identity. I love the yellow, the suit, and the daytime aspect, but I just wish they were Duke's choices, not Bruce's.

I get questions about Machete's ear situation quite often so I whipped up a quick age chart.

Back in February, decided to have a gander at drawing a fake cover for my novel in progress! You may recognise these from a piece back in 2023 that became my favourite of the year, and I'm so so excited for the world to meet these characters when it's all ready. The novel WIP is a blend of Angela Carter-esque gothic, fairytale romance and the grim obsession of one mortal woman for all things other that leads her on a katabasis of both the self and underground space she's longed to visit since childhood (inspired by the PhD thesis I wrote on hellspaces and journeys in modern literature!)

*reminder that all my pieces are nightshaded!*

A couple of drawings of Ezra d'Avenir (an npc from our Curse of Strahd: She is the Ancient campaign) to establish his looks, and also my pale smol witch boy Vic for comparison :]

Been playing FFXIV recently desperately searching for my cunty lil man :)

I love my tiny little friend who insists I come with him for all of his political negotiations where I just sit and nod and occasionally smack a dude senseless
