I like painting people that look comfortable in their own skin.

BORDERLAND SORROWS

Chapter 39 - All my joy, all my pain Read on AO3 (nsfw)

Fandom: Dragon Age Pairing: Abelas/F Lavellan Rating: E Fic Summary: Nepenthe Lavellan has disbanded the Inquisition and is committed to stopping Solas. A task easier said than done without political, magical, or physical power. When she meets Abelas, now an agent of Fen’Harel, as they each seek an Elvhen temple, they are forced to work together against a common enemy. Angst and mutual pining and a slow burn romance ensue…

Chapter excerpt: (chap total ~5200 words) “I know it’s no perpetually heated pool,” she said, unknowingly echoing his thoughts and gesturing at one of the baths, “but it’s a damn sight better than a bucket. Plus,” she added with a glance up at him, “we’ll have it to ourselves.”

“To ourselves?” he repeated, low and quiet.

A blush rose up her ears, and the relief he’d felt when they’d found the blood bloomed into something warmer and sharper.

“No one’s really been bathing here since the kitchens moved and we stopped being able to heat the water with the ovens. Still, it’s worth putting up a few barriers over the doors.”

“Am I to assume we might be here for more than… What was the phrase? Two Void-soaked seconds?”

A flash of a smile on her lips before she pressed them together, trapping a soft sound that could have been amusement or desire or relief. “I said we’d be doing something nice for two Void-soaked seconds, how you want to spend the rest of the time is up to you.”

She left him before he could answer, crossing to the tub with a coy backward glance, a wordless invitation to get on with the barriers already.

Or perhaps an invitation to show her how he wanted to spend this time. And, oh, how he wanted.

Big thanks to @noire-pandora, @emerald-amidst-gold, @starsandskies and @sinsbymanka for tagging me for WIP Wednesday today!

Sadly, I've got no new writing to share today. Everything I've been working on these past few days and weeks is now up on AO3. I plan on starting new chapters and one-shots later this week, though.

In the meantime, watch me obsess over Elenara Lavellan's hair once more in this little Art WIP. I just love drawing hair – although I guess I should've started with the dark color and make the strands lighter as I go. Forever an amateur, me!

Leaving some love and tags (if you want them) for @serial-chillr, @faerieavalon, @mogwaei, @johaeryslavellan, @musetta3, @effelants, @barbex and all you other creative masterminds out there. I hope your week is going well!

Until next Wednesday! ♥︎

THIS IS WHAT FUCKING HAPPENS WHEN YOU FORGET TO RINSE THE TUB OUT AFTER USING A LUSH INTERGALATIC BATHBOMB!

He’s fine. He got a bath.

Lush glitter is made of seaweed.

Art Giveaway Time!

Whoops, this took me a while but…I’ll finally have some more time to draw, and nothing gets me motivated like drawing for others :D (something something, spirit of the holiday season, something). So I’ll be doing a portrait giveaway in the style as on the poster on tumblr, as well as on my Twitter (you can participate in both places to double your chances). Also, I changed my blog url :o sorry for the lack of warning!

Anyway, here are the rules:

-Reblog to enter (one entry only) -Must be a follower -Any fandom and any character is fine (canon chars and OCs) -Contest closes at 10p.m. on the 26th, at which time I will DM the names drawn -If your name gets drawn and you don’t reply, don’t want the portrait, or if I deem your request inappropriate, I will re-draw a name 

I’ll probably reblog this every day until the 26th so that hopefully those who want to participate are able to see this :)

BORDERLAND SORROWS

Chapter 38 - Choices Read on AO3

Fandom: Dragon Age Pairing: Abelas/F Lavellan Rating: E Fic Summary: Nepenthe Lavellan has disbanded the Inquisition and is committed to stopping Solas. A task easier said than done without political, magical, or physical power. When she meets Abelas, now an agent of Fen’Harel, as they each seek an Elvhen temple, they are forced to work together against a common enemy. Angst and mutual pining and a slow burn romance ensue…

Chapter excerpt: (chap total ~3500 words)

For a moment, they ate in silence, watching leaves spiral off the vines like sparks and float to the ground. It could be some normal morning, or maybe the echo of a future one, slipped out of time. A tiny corner of the universe, all their own.

“Are we watched here?” he asked. The leaves provided some cover, but it was not the same as solid walls.

“I tried to pick a spot we wouldn’t be.”

“If Fen’Harel has other eyes here—“

“If Fen’Harel has other eyes here, I will gouge them out,” she spit with a vehemence that surprised him.

He set the mug down and cast a perception barrier around them, a boundary of shifting light and shadow that blended with the leaves.

“Not opaque, but it will help ensure privacy,” he said, sliding closer until their knees touched. She lifted her chin and he leaned down to kiss her, soft and slow as summer, with the taste of blackberry jam on their lips, and all the feelings too complicated to voice on their tongues.

“Forgive me, molain,” he breathed against her mouth when they pulled apart for air. “I should have been there.”

“There’s nothing to forgive,” she whispered. “How could you have known?”

I embroidered Solas's arcane tarot card!

I finished it, finally! Now I have to put it in a beautiful frame and hang it in my wall. I'm very happy with all the details and had so much fun doing it. Maybe I'm thinking about embroider all his cards? Maybe. 😜

Hey y'all!

I'm really curious if each individual pokemon has at least one person on earth where that Pokemon is their absolute favorite! If possible, reblog this and add your favorite in the tags and I'll try and compile the data in a spreadsheet or something!

Pride of her parents and a future of her kingdom - Solveig excelled not only in skills befitting a queen, but also in hunting and the craft of war. Trygve (derived from the Old Norse tryggr, meaning "true, trustworthy") is her beloved peregrine falcon companion. This painting study literally took me forever, but I was so happy to finally see it finished today :D
