  • Feel free to interact, dm or send an ask if you want

ABOUT MY ART
  • PLEASE, do not repost my works.
  • No need to ask for permission to use it as an icon, banner etc
  • I make art in my free time and as many other artists, I started drawing so I could make fan art so it’s kinda what motivates me to improve, put effort on it and share it!
  • Even when it’s not stated, expect my art to be based on reference pics (pinterest, ref packs I bought, my own pics), I’m pointing this out because there’s a concerning amount of people that feel guilty about using them, but art is not created in a vacuum so you should never feel bad for taking advantage of the tools/resources available to help you improve your art!

Generations

Saw a cute illustration on Pinterest of a Mom doing her daughter’s hair and it inspired this. Hair’s always been important for Madeleina and I think doing her daughter’s hair reminds her of the days her mother would do the same.

Her mother always kept her hair long as well, so into adulthood Madeleina keeps hers long as a way to stay connected to her. Those were really important memories for her.

Some days, it feels like her mother is watching over her and Francesca making those same memories.

yes i'm on something of a crusade to dismantle the nonsense misconceptions about illario's competence as an assassin

what of it

ILLARIO DELLAMORTE IS GOOD AT HIS JOB AND PART OF THE CORE CONFLICT WITH LUCANIS IS THAT HE HAS ABSORBED A LOT OF CATERINA'S RHETORIC WITHOUT REALIZING IT

I yell as they drag me off stage

He's in his fucking 30s if he wasn't good he'd be dead. The line "this isn't your kind of job" implies that he HAS gone on solo contracts enough to HAVE a "kind" of job. No matter how many advantages he has by being Caterina's grandson, if Illario is on a contract by himself, he's the only thing keeping himself alive. Especially since TWJ implies he doesn't actually have a lot of personal contacts of his own. We literally see him break someone's neck one handed in game. Do you know how much strength that takes? I know TV and movies make neck snapping seem easy, but it's really not.

The one person who says anything positive about Illario is Teia! She says he's a good assassin and that Lucanis's joins have a tendency to go sideways. Teia was the youngest Talon ever, and she's held on to that position for years. She's also had a front row seat to the Dellamorte drama. If she says someone is a good assassin, then they're a good assassin, AND I'd bet she knows exactly why people don't actually give Illario any credit. (Because he's being compared to Lucanis, who's kind of a bit of a freak. )

Hell, even just reading TWJ Illario had to be good at a lot of assassin skills just to put up with Lucanis's improvising. And that's probably not the weirdest job they've been on.

This Week's Work List

Hold Me Until The End - probably the most painful and favorite thing I have ever written. Rook x Lucanis x Spite. Rook is dying and she gets to choose how she goes. And the boys find a reason to continue once she's gone

Dedications to You - Rook x Lucanis x Spite, Varric x Trevelyan, Hawke x Fenris. Varric's final book is released after his death, and we see the reactions from some of our favorite people to his newest title.

Taash Week is Here!!

Day 1 Fire- Hot To Go - Taash saves Rook from the Antaam and Rook realizes they are kind of hot

Will update daily

URGENT: FUNDRAISING FOR BREAST CANCER TREATMENT

I have tried my absolute best not to seek financial help online, especially when our collective focus should be aimed towards the welfare of our Palestinians, Congolese, and Sudanese brothers and sisters. I truly have considered countless options before resorting to asking for monetary assistance but I no longer have the means to keep myself alive and my little family afloat. Following my father's death almost three years ago due to colorectal cancer, I was diagnosed late last year with Stage 2A breast cancer.
I am genuinely sorry for this. If I could only ask for your permission one by one, I would, but I am afraid of the possibility that Tumblr may consider our plea as spam. I am reaching out because I am desperate.
