Ive been thinking about this trend but instead of metaphorical items and junk its just me attempting diff artstyles

i am once again thinking about how karlach is doomed the second she leaves avernus. she finally escapes the hells after a decade and gets a tadpole put in her head that will inevitably kill her. she gets out of the nautiloid and there's a warlock hunting her down. wyll doesn't kill her but there are still people looking for her. even when they're gone and she's finally free, SURPRISE there's a cult trying to destroy the world. and if she makes it through against all odds and kills a god and saves her home, her own body burns up and destroys her unless she returns to her prison. she's dead if she stays and dead if she leaves. i'm eating bricks
For the Laicion nation (aka, me and three other people)
I had this illustration commissioned (a big thank you to @lunehowls) for my werewolf AU Laicion fic (still a WIP).
The general pitch is as follows :
AU in which Laios never got to meet his sister again, putting his life on a whole other path, a more desperate one. A military deserter with barely a coin to his name, Laios hitches a ride on a boat to one of the elven continents, where he learns about magical tattoos that binds one’s soul to a wolf’s, effectively making them artificial werewolves. Illegal magic be damned, this feels like the answer to… everything.
In the process, he learns about the existence of an illegal fighting ring in one of the elven cities, where beastmen gladiators gather. Freshly tattooed and without anywhere else to go to, Laios decides to head there, where he meets Lycion, an elf and artificial werewolf gladiator. If they first bond over a simple shared meal, by spending time together (sharing the same room in the barracks, maybe the same bed? gasp) they find that they have a lot in common, notably a shared distaste for the body they were born in, a dysphoria partially remedied by becoming a werewolf.
They bond :)
NB: I commissioned another piece, go take a look :D
The urge to kidnap her & rape her in the woods. Chained against a tree & split open on my cock. The screams in pain drowning out all the pathetic cries for help. Carving our initials inside of a heart on, “our” tree afterwards so everyone knows what a sweet couple we are. 🔪🌹
Part of what makes Degenbrecher so fun is that she's simultaneously, you know, Broly, but also an incredibly down to earth, reasonable person.
Yeah, she fistfights avalanches to test her skills as if that isn't insane behavior that only someone as mind-bogglingly strong as her could possibly even consider, but at the same time, she talks about things such as one of her dearest memories being that one time some tourists picked a fight with her in her usual Kjerag eatery, and before she could brecher the fuck out of their degens, the shop owner pulled her by the arm, put himself in front, and yelled "hey, assholes, what are you harassing our Kjerag lady for!?", that she likes copying scripture just as a way to pass time when she's bored, and that Kjerag to her as a warrior is the dullest part of her life, and yet as a person it's the best thing that has happened to her for all the domestic aspects of it, like the snow, the burdenbeasts, the humble ways of life.
She's less wont to break into an inspirational speech about the bright future, and more about, hey, Doctor, stay hydrated, start tackling your schedule, and stay still for one sec while I fix your collar.
She also does indeed carry herself in a way that sells her being an incredibly skilled and experienced warrior, in how tempered her way of carrying herself is: How she likens being promoted to her giving medals to the Kjerag that finished her training, how her hatred for Leithanien has cooled some as she's realized that cultural norms and the associated discrimination that comes with it is something she literally can just walk away from, and that in the end, she's simply content with honing herself further than achieving any sort of lofty goal, because she doesn't have one, truly speaking, but she finds value in the lofty goals of others and doesn't mind lending her incredibly considerable strength to see them through.
Degenbrecher is just so incredibly down to earth. She feels like an active member of a living, breathing world in a way that sets her apart from other Strongest People Ever in the cast, in my opinion, which appeals greatly to my tastes.

ok i swear i'm not going to talk about my breakup forever but the thing that just keeps bothering me:
i know that not getting what you need in a relationship is a COMPLETELY valid reason to end it but also. i feel like having a very vulnerable moment where i opened up about my struggles with intimacy and being relieved that i didn't have to keep doing things i wasn't comfortable with, then being dumped a YEAR later because of my lack of intimacy. is something i should be allowed to be very hurt by???
