16 How did your Rook react to getting trapped in the Fade and separated from their partner?

Hiii thank you so much for the ask and I'm so sorry I took this long to get to it,,,

Not great! Calien gets to watch two of his closest friends and his partner die in quick succession and before he knew better he lost the lyrium dagger and got stuck in the Fade prison. As far as he knows at least. He completely falls for Solas' illusion and believes Lucanis to be dead. He even features in the prison with Bellara and Davrin and Varric (and some Crow related regret of failing to complete the contract on tracking down and stopping Solas).

I imagine he just stands there in shock for a bit. Maybe spends a small eternity on his knees after the reality of it sinks in. Calien isn't very in tune with his feelings so his first instinct would be to block it out and carry on as if nothing happened. Bit hard to do when everything around him takes the shape of the people he lost... HOWEVER it's not like there's anyone around to witness him and his weakness, so he could crash a little. As a treat.

He isn't one to despair normally but it takes a while for him to make his way out of the regret prison.

Once he's back (and done giving Lucanis the longest and tightest hug ever) he's burying those feelings DEEP DOWN again. No time to deal with them and wouldn't know how to anyways! 👍 (This isn't 100% successful but A for effort!)

commission i got from @whistlingstarlight of my cesare design!! he is so skrungly <3

[mismess]

Being 100% honest when I was into Carmen Sandiego, I was feral for Devineaux

He’s just so pathetic he’s trying his best and that is NOT enough

GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS MAN HAS INVOKED THESE EMOTIONS IN they put something in this detective that makes you lose your mind

IT'S JUST NOT ENOUGH!! he's just. he just. He's so Him. He is trying so hard to the point of it being ridiculous and destructive rather than productive. He is actively getting in his own way as well as everyone elses. He is the cringefail king. I have grabbed on to him and I am not letting go

[strategicjazzhands]

No ones doing it like him, I fear.

there's something so incredibly sweet about how many times davrin notes in his journal that talking to rook helped him with something. he keeps bringing them out to touch grass and gaze at nugs out in the woods with him which I think must be very good for them, and their company clearly helps him work through and get more clarity on things he's been stuck on emotionally. it's just kind of lovely and a great little nuance in that relationship.

The Rise & Fall of a Midwest Deadpool

Hey peeps!

So… uh… saw Deadpool… I love this scrimblo of a man so much it’s… a bit of a problem?

No but like this man has altered my brain chemistry it’s not even funny

To illustrate: I stayed up until 5 AM after watching Deadpool & Wolverine in theaters making a 35 Hour long Deadpool playlist and it’s all I’ve been listening to since then, I’ve filled up three separate sketch pages of just Deadpool, two for Wolverine, which is CRAZY RIGHT NOW, and I’ve reblogged literally hundreds of Deadpool related posts onto my reblog account, so much so that I can’t scroll anymore

BUT HOLY SHIT I FEEL GREAT

All this to say - Wade would be the biggest Chappell fan and I won’t even die on this hill. It’s just canon. There is no hill to stand on because he broke the fourth wall and told me personally that he’s a Pink Pony Girl and he dances at the club oh mama aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

johto’s champion and chronicler for the deity of the ilex shrine, it’s lyra!🌿

this one took me a while due to trying out different techniques (studying a Lot of art nouveau) and making a couple changes to her outfit (the details help), but I’d like to think she’s learned a lot in her journey and wanted to reflect her experience more in her champion fit

her specialty would be in fairy types and her meganium’s divergent evolution is grass/fairy 🧚🪷

and a bonus w/ the johto gang after the photoshoot!

Lucanis Dellamorte is such an enigma. After a year of torture at the hands of Zara Renata, and upon learning of his grandmother's death, he says he needs to work. It is easier to bury your head in the sand and hide from the fact that you feel as though you've failed everyone who ever depended on you. And yet, as soon as he is out of the atmosphere created by such heavy grief, he begins to open up.

He has always cared far too deeply. His compassion is what angered Zara enough to act against him. Rather than stick to the contract against Ambrose Forfex, he insisted that the elves he tortured deserved justice. Retribution. He makes sure that the orchestrator of all of that misery pays for his crimes in the most painful way possible.

When Lucanis gets to the Lighthouse and realizes that his new compatriots aren't eating nearly well enough to fuel their bodies for the fights to come, he takes the initiative and begins preparing meals, alongside Bellara, who he finds refreshingly honest and surprisingly compassionate.

He buys mint for Harding to help with her dreams. He knows what it is like to be haunted by nightmares so frightening that you wake up screaming. He buys Bellara some fish for a Dalish recipe that she wants to cook. He knows how much food can connect you to your home, and help heal your heart when you feel so alone in the world. He buys fruit for Neve as she hardly eats anything more than fried fish. Except I feel that this one goes deeper. He sees so much of himself in her. She is what he could be if he opened up a bit more, perhaps if he offers something sweet it will build a bridge that allows him to come out of his shell more, to learn how to love and be loved simply for being who he is.

And, if you wait until you recruit the rest of the companions, he gets something for them as well. He gets a bone for Assan to chew on. Caterina would never let him have a pet as a child, and though he tries to act nonchalant about it, having an animal that is always so enthusiastic to be pet fills him with no small amount of joy. Of course he would want to spoil the good boy! For Taash he gets spices. They've learned so much about themselves since joining the Veilguard, and growing up multicultural introduced them to many foods. The easiest way for him to share his culture is through his cooking. And for dear Emmrich, he picks up wine glasses. Lucanis is a man who has enjoyed the fine things in life since birth, but he is far too trained in reading people to believe the same of Emmrich. The Professor enjoys the fine things in life because he worked hard to achieve them, and he respects that. So he brings a bit of his home's finery to the Lighthouse for Emmrich to enjoy. -= This next bit is about my Crow Rook & the wyvern tooth dagger =-

And once he's finally done with his shopping and ready to get back to work, Rook, the woman who broke into his prison and freed him, treated him like he was simply a man even when he felt like a monster, bought him something. A dagger. He is suddenly drawn back to many years ago, attempting to gift a dagger to the other young Crow who he was infatuated with, only to have it seen as a threat. Upon wrestling his thoughts back, he realizes it's a wyvern tooth dagger.

He meets her gaze, and she has a knowing smirk on her face. He feels a warmth in his chest as he admits that he was quite fascinated with wyverns as a child (he still is, but she doesn't need to know that) and that Caterina had never allowed him to have a dagger like this. Her smirk turns into a content smile as they head towards Café Pietra, and he begins talking to her about the different types of wyverns that you can find all across Thedas.

She doesn't interrupt him once, simply asks questions about particular habits, and inquires if his fascination with Wyverns also translates to an interest in dragons.

[SQH: my king...]

[SQH: Surely we've grown enough as people that this is unessassary.]

[SQH(thoughts): WHAT is the point of being here.]

[SQH(thoughts): I can't even see his ass...]

[SQH(thoughts): ¡Unfilial!

[SQH(thoughts): ¡Spoiled King!

[SQH(thoughts): ¡Brat!

_____

It's been a minute since I started this but TBH other than minor design changes between now and then the only thing i'd change is the speech bubbles from "¡spoiled king!" and "¡brat!" to "¡brat king!" and "¡spoiled!". so. not that much of a difference but figured it was mentionable

[alliekitaguchi]

can’t stop thinking about essek “my partner” thelyss watching the brave, profoundly sad halfling and the charming, “trying to smile because if he doesn’t he’ll scream” air genasi dance around each other in aeor, where once upon a time, a kind, yet deeply depressed wizard and a man learning the values of friendship fell in love and made each other better (and also maybe saved the world)

and i wonder if there’s a part of essek that smiles when he sees dorian and orym’s longing looks, and if he makes a mental note to tell caleb and jester that they were right—aeor really is for lovers

[omegalerc]

he's growing out his omega coat for winter

it’s a win ig since he’s wearing huge jackets now and making himself look tiny and petite…
