Secret Santa for @geekwithacuriousmind

[tanuki-pyon]

Secret Santa gift I made for @vhalesa! Happy that you liked it bud <3

[yasaoart]

Saw @vhalesa do this and thought it looked fun. [Original template from the former birdpage]. It's mostly OCs, Dragon Age (including my OTP) and Legend of Zelda on my part, but then again...That's what I love the draw the most XD (in that exact order).

I also realize I haven't shared all of the artworks from this yet. Are there some you'd like to see in full detail?

[sasquapossum]

I saw this on Mastodon, where @Vhalesa@mastodon.art (also @vhalesa here?) posted some very charming pictures to go with the descriptions.

Cuddles, analyzed:

Little Spoon: Feeling of being held and protected. Comforting pressure, like a weighted blanket. Warm. Down side: Slightly claustrophobic. Limbs lose circulation. Possibility of being crushed. Risk of overheating. Difficult to change positions without disrupting your partner. Good for the partner who sleeps like a fucking log and is always too cold.

Big Spoon: Satisfaction of keeping your partner safe and covered. Also warm. Easier to sneak away and piss. Loose, whimsical clinging options. Down side: Vulnerable to outside threats. Risk of becoming too cold. Little to no soothing surface pressure. Good for the partner who is protective and proactive.

Middle positions: Covered on all sides. Maximum skin contact, maximum surface pressure. Warm, protected, cherished position. Down side: Restricted range of movement. Possibility of overheating. Morning breath from at least one partner.

Face-to-face: Intimate. Offers the opportunity to stare lovingly at your partner while their eyes are closed, to admire and observe and to think of the past and future. Excellent for late night conversation. Down side: 100% certainty of direct morning breath blast. Relatively distant, physically. Weird blanket drape allows for draft.

Back-to-back: Primary choice for defensive position. Eyes on both sides. Maximum blanket tension. No morning breath. Easy to sneak off and back without being disruptive. Booty buddies. Down side: Feels a lil like you're a married couple going through hard times in a hallmark movie. The least cuddly of cuddles.

Stacked, Top: Freedom of movement. Warm. Heartbeat and breathing both detectable. Good for a spur of the moment nap on a shared surface. Perfect for a small partner on the go. Down side: Somewhat cold. Feels a little one-sided. Might roll off.

Stacked, Bottom: The most surface pressure possible. The most body heat possible. Heartbeat and breathing detectable. Secure position, greatest validation of affection. Down side: Zero freedom of movement. Worst for circulation. Worst for pee and water breaks. Highest risk of being drooled on.

Stacked, Middle: Expert level. Do not attempt. Worst of both top and bottom positions with the benefits of neither. Zero ventilation, no range of motion. This ride only stops for emergencies, and crying is not an emergency. Avoid.

[[Chapter 8, the finale of Anniversary Adventure, is now up! Art by @vhalesa!!]]

——-

Chapter 1. The Proverb Chapter 2. The Tower Chapter 3. Familiar Faces Chapter 4. The Wolf Chapter 5. The Iron Maiden Chapter 6. Decisions Chapter 7. Repose Chapter 8. A New Beginning

Once Chariot is certain that her two students are all right and resting, she leaves Alcor to look after them and takes the dragon with her to see Miranda.

From there, it's a long explanation as she recounts what Akko had told her happened the night before, as well as her request not to re-seal the dragon.

Though understandably shocked that such strange events had occurred and gotten students involved, Miranda is glad the girls were taken care of, and agrees to find an alternative solution for the dragon. But for the time being, Chariot is permitted to keep an eye on it, since it had already grown comfortable around her.

She then privately seeks out Akko's and Diana's friends, who by this point in the day, are all fretting and asking questions about where they could possibly be. After calling Lotte, Sucy, Hannah and Barbara into her office, Chariot explains everything, and that the other two are presently resting in the New Moon Tower.

It's a hectic day full of confusion and relief, but at the very least it's all positive.

[inktho]

Lucina (requested by @vhalesa )

[tracedinairlwa]

A collab with the incredibly talented @vhalesa for @diakkoday!

A fic in which Diana decides to flirt with Akko like a Victorian lesbian, so Akko responds with the only form of romance trope she knows how: yuri manga nonsense.

Enjoy over at AO3!

[vhalesa]

Yoo, it's time for the second chapter:

Full/More art:

Yes, I can draw backgrounds if I want to xD

[shintorikhazumi]

Trope (4): Orange

A/N: This was written for @vhalesa wee! The trope for this one is when a person who can literally do anything can’t do the simplest task. Uh... Perfectly Capable person can’t do supposedly basic task.

Sorry for the lack of updates/ writing lately. Been busy. Very. I need sleep. School hard, MayaKuro wonderful.

Enjoy?

~Shintori Khazumi

It was a menial task, something that required so little effort, and even less skill.

-That was how it was supposed to be.

Maya could just feel how her ears burned as she tried to keep a passive expression on her face while her nails slowly took on an orange tint as she continually tried (and failed) to open a single, simple... orange.

She could just hear Claudine hold back her giggles, actually feeling bad for Maya and her pride for once. It only made her feel even more ashamed.

She should just outright laugh if she wanted to!

Maya grumbled, pushing her nails into the skin, and cursed aloud (a surprise that rendered Karen speechless as she stared at Maya with wide eyes) when a small amount of juice squirted into her eye.

Maya grit her teeth, muttering her angry woes into her hands as she covered her face, unable to open her eyes.

Just as she lamented her terrible luck, she felt strong, gentle arms help her up, guiding her to walk across the room to where Maya found out to be the sink.

She heard the faucet twist, releasing a steady stream of water into the basin. Soon, careful hands assisted her in bringing water to her eyes to rinse them, relieving her of the burning feeling.

As the discomfort soon waned, Maya blinked away the few remaining tears, sighing happily as they were swiped away by the soft pads of Claudine's thumbs.

She knew it could only be her. Her scent, her touch, her gentleness were far too familiar for Maya not to figure it out.

"I told you you should have just let me do it for you."

Even her teasing tone of voice.

"I can peel oranges myself, Ma Claudine." Maya whined, wiping her face dry with the towel handed to her.

She was greeted with a smirk, and she scrunched her brows in annoyance, sighing as she unwillingly admitted defeat.

"But maybe... today can be an exception." She relented.

Claudine gave her a happy giggle, one that sent butterflies through her stomach.

She watched as the girl placed a piece of orange between her lips before leaning in close, daring Maya to take it.

"Really?"

Claudine simply shrugged.

Maya didn't think she could be teased like this, but maybe she was just weak to Claudine.

But two could play at that game.

Taking the other end of the orange between her lips, she pushed forward, leading their tangy little kiss, and leaving Claudine flustered and breathless.

At least she won again.

Grinning, Maya closed in once more, brushing her nose against Claudine.

"Shall we have another? Ma Claudine?"

She loved the way Claudine huffed and rolled her eyes in annoyance, but nodded nonetheless.

"You insufferable-"

"NO BEING GAY IN MY CHRISTIAN KITCHEN!"

The pair burst into a fit of laughter at the sound of Junna's frustrated voice.

Maybe they should do this some other time.

"I mean it!"

Taking Claudine's hand, Maya led her back to the living room, plucking a fresh orange from the counter they passed by. Winking at Claudine, she handed the fruit, sharing a small laugh with her girlfriend as they settled down with the rest of their friends.

"Keep it SFW too." Junna warned, to which both shrugged.

"Okay~"

[upathosarts]

@vhalesa you asked where the maya comp is well here we go :] much less,,,

tried to compile every single random kuro i've drawn from newest to oldest. (I only started drawing her at the end of this feb...)

[yasaoart]

What, another Dragon Age aceo? And it's Anders again? :D Even though I just recently painted another card of him? giggles (I’m talking about this one https://yasaoart.tumblr.com/post/167938286984/yet-another-aceo-originally-i-only-meant-to in case you’ve missed it.) Yup. But this drawing here is a lot older, in fact I drew it about half a year ago, for @vhalesa

You gotta admit, it feels good to see a little bit of spring in the midst of winter, does it not? ♥

[[Chapter 6 of Anniversary Adventure is now up! Art by @vhalesa!!]]

——-

Chapter 1. The Proverb Chapter 2. The Tower Chapter 3. Familiar Faces Chapter 4. The Wolf Chapter 5. The Iron Maiden Chapter 6. Decisions

The echoes of their unanimous cry reverberate around the dungeon for a few seconds as both witches look back to the little lizard in front of them. It scuttles across a small area, only within the range of the light of their wands, as if it's too confused by the light to make it back into the cover of darkness.

Diana holds her wand up a bit higher to get a better look at the dragon. There's no doubt in her mind that it's exactly the same as the one from last year when it had first been released from its seal.

"But how…?"

"Diana!" Akko says, shaking her arm. "Do you think that dragon from last time had eggs? What if there are more babies crawling around here?!"
