And once again her heart work (yes heart, because you out so much love into every drawing) has made my day 🥰🥺
Cry, fool.
I think this is my first time trying to paint both in one layer and not using lineart, because if I’m going to mess it up, I’m going to mess it up as a whole ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_ Neverless, it was a fun little experiment.
Based on L'Ange déchu, or The Fallen Angel, by Alexandre Cabanel. A detail, because I wanted those tears to show themselves.
Let me rest my head on your chest and hear your heart. Let me watch your lips whisper your thoughts, your dreams, your fears, your love. Let me hear your voice that calms the harshest waves. Let me look up to your eyes that remind me of the endless fields of life beyond the hut’s door. Let me hold your hands that carry so much power, but cradle me like I’m the most fragile thing on this earth.
Let’s just lay here in the fire light. Let me stay here, and burn this moment into my soul. You don’t need to do anything. Just lay here with me.
“To define is to limit”, said Dorian Gray, and I think that’s applicable here. Tarek doesn’t specialise in a type of magic. Not yet, at least. Barely three years since he remembers joining the world, and even shorter since he was actually able to start relearning magic, focusing in just one branch at the price of missing out the rest feels almost irresponsible, preposterous.
Tarek owns the magic shop, and knows enough flashy tricks and illusions to keep the business going, so he can afford studying as much as he pleases about any type of magic just for the pleasure of knowing, there’s no rush.
When it comes to magic that it’s natural to him, though, that’s easily answered. His fire, his blue fire, has always come to him as simple as breathing. For someone who is not specially interested in physical violence, Tarek surely was chosen by quite a violent element. Ironic.
Abraham and Rivka (parents), too old to care at this point.
Midnight living her best life with her spouse and children (if her and her spouse has). Mood is quickly ruined my Victoria, her twin.
Victoria bullies Midnight in any and every aspect she can, 10/10 wants her dead. Just so she can fuck Tarek (only for when Midnight is married/dating/engaged idfk to Tarek). Sleeps with people for money even though she’s rich.
Jace used to be in a gang. Has a severe hatred towards Lucio and Tarek. Constantly pisses off his ancestors (he took after his dad). Craves violence. A lot of it.
Jason fucking cinnamon roll who just wants to be loved and cherished. Huge sweetheart, don’t make him angy though.
Aurora is a precious sapphire who also craves love and to be cherished. Hates violence so avoids it and prefers to not be yelled out.
All of them together.... Funny, chaotic, scary yelling and threatening. Very kind though to each other’s lovers. Except Jace, he’s just an asshole to everyone and Vic thinks she’s all that when she’s not. 😂
