[splatooshy]

presenting the totally heterosexual dinner party that definitely isn’t a double date (no, not at all)

damon: adjusting hand on his lap with a strained expression

elijah: watching damon while resting his head on his hands

klaus: 2cool4skool, sitting there amused by stefan using his cutlery to gesticulate.

stefan: cranky, trying to ignore klaus while staring right at him.

klaus + stefan sharing a secret smile (+ klaus’ little ‘shh’ motion???? they’re having a silent conversation fr fr)

damon winking at elijah, elijah turning his attention away from whatever the fuck’s going on between their younger brothers.

klefan, silently gossiping about their older brothers.

stefan (with his eyes): oh my god. are you seeing what i’m seeing right now???????? like fr, tell me they aren’t flirting.

klaus: shhh i know right??? you look good btw :-)

stefan: …

stefan: no but fr look. you see this too, right?????

goes from staring gazing at damon (with his chin resting on his hands??????) to pay attention to the conversation

[stefan’s line btw]

klaus: i am actually not opposed to that suggestion. to be perfectly honest, i would prefer it — in fact, i am imagining it right now.

damon: wanna know the real reason i undaggered you? 😘💞😈👅🍆💦

elijah: 🤭 (🫣)

I went with Cléo de Mérode in the end. It felt right.

I would have wanted the bun a little higher, but I've never tried to recreate this style before, half my hairpins were missing, and I didn't have much time, so I'll call it a win! I had a wonderful time. 😊

AI is absolutely talentless for making this about ROBERT MITCHUM

[vaguely-concerned]

Ooh. should I have rye without any of his makeup on for the final lucanis romance scene this time, to mirror him starting the game off wearing none while running around with varric (sometimes glitches are storytelling opportunity blessings in disguise). finally allowing oneself to be seen literally barefaced, without embellishment or obfuscation through deliberate curlicue, stripped of the image of yourself you meant to present because you yourself don't know what is hiding underneath anymore -- and being so readily recognized and tenderly loved through it anyway. you know me so well it makes me no longer a stranger to myself. well. what it lacks in subtlety as a metaphor, it more than makes up for in making me feel nuts. Yes. Yes. I think that might indeed emotionally devastate me

(the mutual desperation of like... intimacy and recognition and relief in this romance still shakes me to the very core btw. if you even care. rook walking through the mind lucanis is so sure has been broken to the point that it's 'no longer the mind of a crow -- not even the mind of a human being (no longer me)', and recognizing him every step of the way so undramatically and completely, finding him where he's been hiding even from himself. because he knows it's where they'll look first. and helping him come back to himself just by standing there next to him, promising to walk beside him. rook stumbling out of the fade confused and disoriented and robbed of the lies they told themselves to survive, and lucanis being there to catch them. and giving that back to them. all the fear and confusion and longing resolving into calm certainty because rook is rook. and rook is there. and next to that nothing else really matters. you're here. you're really here. and so am I. (why would I be anywhere else, when you're here.) and between them there's safe shelter from the storm outside like spite writes about with him and lucanis before. hello. help. can anyone hear me.)

WHY DO THEY BECOME TEN X HOTTER AND BETTER WHEN THEY HAVE KOHL LINED EYES?!?!?!

P.S: I need more people to talk to about Once Upon A Time!

"Kohl" We where each assigned a color with a small except explaining the history of the color. We where only aloud to use the color assigned in the artwork. I was assigned Kohl, which was used in ancient Egypt as a sort of eyeliner, worn for its protective qualities both against the sun and against illnesses that affect the eyes. The rich would mix crushed pearls or emeralds or such things to add a shiner to their kohl. It was later discovered that the chemicals kohl is made of helps prevent eye infection. My ancient Egyptian grammar may be off but the hieroglyphs spell out "ointment that protects the eyes" in ancient Egyptian. The hieroglyph on the top right is the symbol of Sheshat goddess of scribes and illustrators.
