The fool and the Wicked

I'm trying my hand at writing, and what better way to share my work than by uploading it to Tumblr?

English isn't my first language.

Astarion & Feyra

(Happens in the beginning of act 2) (nothing spicy but mention of some- but still very much sfw)

Step one: make our dear leader fall in love with him.

Step two: don’t fall in love with them—easy.

Or so Astarion thought. He had met and kissed hundreds of people, played the part of the fragile and the hero, so Feyra wasn’t something unfamiliar to him. A pretty face, a sly smile, and a twisted sense of humor to match his—nothing too special. So why couldn’t he stop staring at her? Thinking of her? She wasn’t special, but then again… against all odds, she sliced through that monster hunter without hesitation, let him bite her, and then again—and again. Maybe she was just plain stupid, naïve, but … she was clever with her words and absolutely frightening at times… maybe she wasn’t the fool, but he was.

They stayed at the Last Light Inn tonight, after being in that freaky forest for far too long, and he couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching them. He offered his favorite Drow to join him tonight because nothing says "sex" like being surrounded by dark shadows and corrupted land, after all.

She came at night as always, her white hair still tied up in a messy ponytail. She had just finished cleaning her face, making her skin glow in the dim candlelight. Astarion was reading one of the books they had found not too long ago, but the moment she entered, he let his eyes linger on her before she sat down next to him. Before he could even say a word, she sighed and said, “Would you mind if we just lay to rest tonight?”

“Oh? Not in the mood for some fun, I see?” he closed his book as she lay on his scrawny bed, taking up almost the whole space. She took off her hair tie, letting her snowy hair spill all around—what a delicious treat she looked.

“Just a bit tired, that’s all, and I wouldn’t want to spoil our fun with yawning all the way through.” Feyra looked at him, patting the limited space next to her, inviting him to join, and join he did. He leaned on top of her, caressing her face gently while playfully saying, “Have you no sense of shame? Offering my own bed?”

“Shame? I don't know of her,” she answered, stretching her arms around his neck and pulling him closer until he rested his head on her chest. Soft and warm, they were intimate with each other already, yet this time it felt different. He felt different.

“Why does the way to Baldur’s Gate have to go through a cursed forest? And not just a regular forest? I swear we can’t have one nice thing happening on this trip,” Feyra complained, and while he would usually offer some snarky remarks, Astarion was too focused on the warm, strange feeling that suddenly made him forget how to speak.

“The first thing I’m going to do in the city is take a nice, long bath with actual soap!” She kept talking and talking; you would think she wasn’t as tired as she claimed to be. But Astarion didn’t mind. Actually, listening to her speak, to her voice, while being held so gently in her arms, was something he didn’t realize could feel so good.

“Have you fallen asleep, Astarion?” she suddenly said, which made him open his eyes that he didn’t know were closed.

“Hm? You were talking for so long, my dear, I fear you must have lulled me to sleep,” he said jokingly to cover the panic that rose in him. He was feeling too safe—too comfortable for a moment there.

“Apologies, go back to sleep then.” She raised her arm for a moment to shut the lantern. It was Astarion’s moment to escape her grasp, yet his body didn’t move. Instead, he let her hand rest on him, her fingers pushing through his hair so gently it made his head spin for a moment.

The tent was dead quiet. She wasn’t asleep just yet, he could tell—not with the rising beat of her heart. Was it because of him? Was she finally falling for his spells? His charm? It’s about time! Yet only with one tender stroke on his neck, he swore he could feel his frozen heart skip a beat. What kind of dark magic is that?

At some point, her hand stopped moving and her quiet breath turned into faint snores. Only then did he decide to rise up and give her a short look from above. Her beautiful face now in deep slumber—what a cruel woman she was, making his world turn upside down only to leave him alone with his thoughts. He lay next to her, turning his back in the hopes that this warm feeling might disappear if he stopped looking at her. But even in her sleep, she found a way to taunt him by moving closer and pressing herself to his back, reaching her hand to cuddle him, shielding his back, keeping him warm. What a wicked woman she is, Astarion thought, holding her soft hand. And what a fool he is.

It's funny how opinions can change over time for instance I used to want Bruce to be a good parent but then I realised how fucking boring that is to read at the end of the day comics are soap operas and I'm here for the drama

[egophiliac]

tsum events really are just the best, huh

[arabella-s-arts]

Scenes/Things in Supernatural that genuinely don't make sense to me if Dean was straight:

The confession booth scene.

Sam just rolling with the fact that Dean's siren is a guy while still thinking sirens infect people through sex.

Dean being flustered by several men: Gunner Lawless, Aaron, Doctor Sexy, etc.

All the parallels between Destiel and other couples. (A big one being "last night on Earth" bc how do you do that accidentally.)

Having all the gay jokes be on Dean instead of Sam.

Paralleling Sam meeting his childhood celebrity crush with Dean meeting Gunner Lawless.

The boner Dean got when Cas cleaned up.

Dean gulping after Cas does an impression from a Western movie.

Charlie, a lesbian, calling Castiel "dreamy."

The way Mary looks at Dean and Cas when they hug.

Dean wondering why everyone assumes he's gay, while Sam not caring.

The logic that Charlie can't flirt with guys because she's only attracted to women, but then having Dean flirt with the guy for her.

Dean seeming disappointed when learning that Aaron's flirting was fake.

The amount of time Dean and Cas spend staring at each other.

Dean canonically having an orgy with Crowley.

A woman saying that she knows when someone's pining for someone else to Dean, just for us to learn that Dean was never in love with Amara.

The set design and script choices that lead to a cross in the background while Dean said "I do." to Cas after he came back to life.

That time when Dean wanted to say something and Cas was like, "It's okay, I heard your prayer." But Dean still looked like he wanted to say something important.

Amara: [about Dean] "I can see inside your heart. Feel the love you feel. Except, it’s cloaked in shame.”

If you want to have a more expansive list, @destiel-is-real-idgaf added to this one quite nicely.

[imissthembutitwasntadisaster]

Donna Noble really got in the TARDIS and on trip number ONE like ONLY the FIRST trip she was like we are going to change history to save a single family because that is how it should work so that is how it does and then on trip number TWO on the SECOND trip she was like we are going to destroy an entire culture of slavery because it is right I don't care if we're two people and then on the THIRD trip she was like I am going to be unbelievably brave to save my home and everyone I love and then on the FOURTH trip she was like no living breathing thinking creature is less than a person and how dare you try to dehumanise someone like that how dare you not give her a name and the list GOES ON this woman NEVER MISSED there goes one of the kindest bravest most constant women you might ever meet and she's a temp from Chiswick

City of Tears. But Mini.

I wanted to make an atmospheric art piece with Dewi. And the City of Tears is one of the most sorrowing, beautiful, and grand places to do that. This is a lot of firsts for me regarding the architecture and lighting. The shadows cover a lot, and it may have been too much. I'm happy with how it turned out tho.

No idea how Dewi found his way into the City. Probably magic. Probably plot too :) But oh boy, he is experiencing childlike wonder in his raincoat!

This is a better show of the line detail I needlessly covered up in the final lol

[rosyrubi15]

I needed to draw this as Kyoko lmao
