— Kairos
noun: kai���ros: the perfect, delicate, crucial moment; the fleeting rightness of time and place that creates the opportune atmosphere for action, words, or movement.
warning(s) depictions of anxiety, stress, overthinking, and mentions of financial difficulties. Also maybe some grammar mistakes.
It was an overcasted day.
The building, although massive, lacked liveliness.
It wasn’t because a lack of students, oh no. It just… It was dull looking. Basic and aged.
But it’s a university nonetheless. A university that Lucien was fortunate enough to get into.
The student was forcing each foot in front of themself, chanting assurance in their brain, and ignoring the bodies that passed by them, or any they accidentally made eye contact with.
It took everything in them to not completely disassociate or succumb to an anxiety attack while heading to the administration office and receiving the necessary paperwork. They made sure to try and listen as information was being given, making sure to not ask the woman to repeat herself too much, and used the notes app on their phone just in case they forgot.
When the student finally left they fled to the courtyard and sat on a lonely bench, the cornflower paint chipped and the wood a bit cracked.
One breath in.
Hold it for four.
One breath out.
Out for four.
Wash, rinse, and repeat till they felt at least somewhat normal again.
They fix their headphones and flip around through their music, dark brown eyes watching young adults either rush to their lectures or meander with their friends or alone.
They soon study the map of Olympeius and murmur to themself about the next thing to do.
“It’s probably best to figure out where our lectures will be that way I’m not lost like a damn fool when it comes time to my first official day..”
They look around themself and purse their lips. “Nah… I’ll wait till there’s not so many people in the halls…”
Lucien isn’t clueless. Ever since they stepped foot into this city and university, they’ve seen the people walking around it.
Fast, vibrant cars, name brand clothing and accessories, black platinum cards (or flashes of green or pale blue paper), and finally, the attitude of others and how they carry themselves.
Lucien didn’t grow up rich and knew the taste of stress from financial problems, and the bitter feeling of someone constantly taking their money when they probably don’t even need it.
But anyways.
Lucien knew that they’d better keep their head down and try to avoid getting in some peoples way.
Otherwise they just might be eaten alive.
But they try to not think too negatively. Especially when they’re in a delicate headspace currently.
“We’ll be okay… Just stay in your lane and do your work. Don’t wanna disappoint anyone…”
‘I wasn’t bullied too badly in high school, maybe I’ll be okay.’
‘But I came from a simple high school. This place is different.’
‘What if I get caught up in something? Will I get help?’
‘What if I become some rich asshole’s servant?’
‘Will the bullying be like how it is on tv?’
‘Should I take self defense classes? Hell, nah, I definitely don’t got money for that, nor the motivation.’
‘Ugh, what about that bill I still need to pay?’
‘God, I have to find a new therapist too.’
‘So much to do and-.’
“Excuse me? Are you okay?”
It was dull and gray outside. They like it like that, it usually meant rain.
But now… The sun has peaked out from the shade of clouds and licked at their skin.
They blink and shake their head, catching their headphones as it slips back slightly, and there stands a proper looking young man with pretty eyes and an even prettier face.
Brown meets azure, and they nearly choke on air.
“I-.. Yeah..! Sorry, I was lost in thought!” Lucien quickly explained.
The dapper fellow smiles with relief and stands up straight, his hands behind his back. “That’s good to hear. I was quite concerned for a moment! Are you perhaps new?”
A gentle bob of their head and they smile sheepishly at him. “Is it that obvious?”
The man gives a lighthearted chuckle. “Hmm, I wouldn’t say that, but I haven’t seen you before. You just gave it away.”
“Fair,” Lucien chuckles, rubbing their neck, their eyes moving from his eyes and down to his mouth before looking at his attire.
Tawny skin with dusty pink undertones, silken brown hair in a little braid that rests on his shoulder, a few strands fallen in his face, making him look soft but still elegant. He’s got a clear face, plump shiny lips, a cute nose, and expressive eyes.
Blue eyes aren’t something they find interesting, but on him? They’re beautiful.
Fancy black shoes, slacks, and button up, and a purple vest that hugs his torso.
It makes them wary for a moment once they take in his all too neat and perfect appearance, but…
He seems sweet.
“Oh, I’m Lucien, by the way,” they greet.
“I’m Jericho. Jericho Ichabod. But everyone calls me Crowe!”
His teeth are straight and white, and behind him the sun blooms brighter, and Lucien isn’t sure what exactly is blinding them more.

Strife, when playing as Rook Aldwir: Why hasn't this weird bug i kicked out of our camp ages ago died yet :|

me: i sure hope the crows are not gonna be solely depicted in veilguard as a brave force who 'fight for all' when they are at their core a criminal organization who is known to buy children to indoctrinate them and turn them into assassins, by putting them in overcrowded warehouses and making them fight for scrapes in order not to starve, to later torture those who reach adulthood to finish their initiations and kill them anyways if they dare to try getting out
bioware: i cooka da pizza
#sorry i'm still not over this#i want to like teia and viago but everytime they say something like “the crows rule antiva!” i'm like “maybe they shouldn't”#but rook can only say “yayyy cool viva the crows” so.#i mean i kinda get the thing they were going for#but when you know zevran. yeah no sorry#each time a crow says 'he was one of our own we protect our own' i'm rolling my eyes like shut uuuup#bioware critical#dragon age#dav#veilguard spoilers#datv#dragon age veilguard#datv spoilers#da:tv#da:tv spoilers#wave posts

Rook: *sneaking in through their window after a night at the villa*
Viago: *turning in their chair and flicking the light on* You want to tell me where you've been all night?
Rook: I was out with Teia?
Teia: *turning in their chair* Wanna try again?

One of my biggest gripes with Veilguard is absolutely no acknowledgement of Zevran, the Crow lore established in his backstory, and what a pain in the ass he's been to the crows over the years so I've decided the reason the Crows are so different from how they're described in Origins is because Zevran terrorized the Crows so much they completely changed their modus operandi to be less shit and are so scared of the specter of Zevran Arainai that they dare not speak his name in fear of summoning him to wreck holy hell upon them.
#someone brings up zevran and lucanis starts looking over his shoulder like hes expecting zev to pop out of nowhere and whoop his ass#Zevran Arainai#antivan crows#dragon age

(part 1)
(short comic) (you can otherwise search 'spy x pta' on my profile)
MY GOODNESS. it's been a hot minute since i posted the first part and i guess i just couldn't SHUT UP because this is FOURTEEN PAGES LONG. FOURTEEN. you can even see some pages where the linework is slightly different because i drew it like 6-ish weeks ago, that's how long this has been cooking. drawing in general has been hard lately because of time constraints, BUT i am so happy i finished this. this is like my fav project even tho it isnt as popular, but who cares!!!!! POPULAR IN MY HEART
#also another six of crows reference because Obviously#loid “i must mold myself to please everyone” forger meets yor “as long as my family accepts me im happy” forger#mrs delaire you can choke on a rock#i hate her (i literally wrote her)#im so happy with so many parts of this comic but its so freaking long LMAO so i wont list all the parts i like#to the people who r enjoying this thank you for the love :')#its nice to see when people like smth that i have put time into :D#spy x family#my art#loid forger#sxf#yor forger#twiyor#spy x pta

When you spend 20 years attempting to bring down the child slavery, murdering, human trafficking exploitation ring that stole your childhood, murdered your friends, and killed countless innocents only to have them rebrand as 'Noble Freedom Fighters™' off-screen.
#rip zevran's crusade against the crows >:(#when people said they wanted to be crows they didn't want devs to make the faction nice so we won't feel bad or conflicted about it#people wanted to be conflicted! they wanted to see the faction in all its glitz and glamour - then see what it hid beneath all the mystique#choose to play as a crow that loves the life/hates it/is undecided/etc...#but i'm sorry i forgot that this game doesn't want to do 'role play' options my bad#i will not stand for this zevran erasure!!!#they set up a schism with zevran's da2 codex entry - with other crows joining him!#have the antivan crows faced with a threat that challenged their outlook on why they fight#have the talons be the one to sell out antiva! in exchange for allowing their business to resume (have it be a sneaky reveal!!!)#their work has purpose and order to it so the antaam might agree! they're like 'babys first ben-hassrath!'#have Crows look around at their own home - see the vendor they bought fruit from disappear or the smiling old lady now cowed by grief#then have them decide to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT#have a schism! have Zevran take in Crows who are unhappy - have them realize how shit the organization is!#boom! somewhat-noble freedom fighters! (they're doing their best okay)#if there were differences between different crow houses they needed to explain it better...let us talk to Lucanis! I want to know him :(#my art <3#dragon age#datv critical#datv spoilers#dragon age the veilguard#zevran arainai

what if there was a plague doctor that was so so so cute (and was also secretly a bird themself)
#art#plague doctor#posie#pastel#kawaii#cute#captioned#artists on tumblr#character design#oc#original character#oops! no name yet#halloween#spooky#i made them for merch reasons but i will draw them like i draw my other characters#i worked so hard i got Brainsick from Stress and i had to stop and then also i was busy in Not art ways for once#GIRL I NEED MORE HOURS IN THE DAY#oh uhh character facts. i love skulls and flowers and plague doctors and crows/ravens so i jammed them together#they are an anthro white raven disguised as a plague doctor. bird disguised as bird. nice. you can see their tail though#they use they them. the nonbinary urge to wear a full face mask at all times#that little bird is their Familiar of sorts and it can turn into things. usually a staff or a walking cane i think#the little bird also doesnt have a name. neither of them have names#not from lack of trying i just haven't had time to look yet#edit - THEIR NAME IS POSIE#YKNOW LIKE THE NURSERY RHYME
