After show sleep-in

"I know a way or two to wake him up fast... but since he sang his heart out yesterday night, he deserves a little bit of laziness; l'll let him doze off for a bit while I treat myself to this chapter from my book."

Playtime together

[floofnwool]

Years may pass but some things stay the same... while the books' rating goes up.

“...how can she read that with a straight face while in public? Even I would -almost- blush!"

"When the curtain closes, our own opera begins."

"Everything is calm and peaceful... the beautiful Venus entered... and...

…..and I forgot the rest."

Could it be ADHD, low blood sugar levels or something else? Studying the piano remains a sore point for Florien, but perhaps he doesn't mind so much... it's an excuse to spend more with Irina. She seems to have become more patient lately... but only because she has to reciprocate after the numerous help she received with singing.

"It's normal to share knowledge and help each other in a healthy friendship between conscientious adults... you can't play cat and dog forever!"

That's what she would answer with a scornful look. As usual, it's better not to contradict her and let her be... we've probably made her waste too much time already and she and Florien need to wrap their study session.

“Fremon già nell’anima le dolcezze estreme, nel bacio freme amor.”

To remind you to take breaks in between study sessions… here’s Maximilien and Cecilia having a moment for themselves

I: Do you really think I am gifted for singing?

A: Absolutely. You have a perfect pitch, a good sense of rhythm... And your voice is as powerful as that of a general!

I: That doesn't sound like a compliment at all! I want to sing like a princess... not like a general!

A: Ahah, but that was actually a compliment. Princesses in opera sound quite powerful, didn’t you know? Powerful yet elegant… with the right amount of training.

I: If you say so... then, will you accompany me with the piano and help me learn? Until I'm ready for my debut? I don’t think I am as talented with the piano as I am with my voice…

A: Hm, that’s actually something you should learn on your own little princess. A good singer should also be capable of playing the piano.

I: Aww… please?

A: …but with that said, I don’t mind spoiling you a little bit. Just every once in a while.

I: Heheh, thank you big sis

A: Furthermore, you’ll need your big sis to keep in line all those suitors you'll have begging at your door... so accompanying you will be for the best!

I: What?! Suitors... I-I can perfectly keep them in line myself! I won't let them lay a finger on me!

A: Pff-hahah! I'm just messing with you. Of course, of course you can. I don't expect anything else from a princess-general...

They went on a date together while he was dressing up as his brother... I wonder if everything went alright.

"Not all princesses can sing well from the very start... some of them require coaching first. This princess has potential - the rogue says so at least - and he shall gladly assist her in her voice journey in exchange for gentler piano lessons... but the real question is: will the princess be able to stay focused? After all, she's used to far more severe teaching methods... not that she complains or anything, of course."

Prototype of short comic I made last month and didn’t finish

not all princesses can sing perfectly like in fairytales... Some of them require some coaching💖

(Merry Christmas!)

Bonus Florien and Irina doodle💖 looks like he was positively impressed by her performance🤭✨

Zerlina: "Vedrai, carino, se sei buonino,
che bel rimedio ti voglio dar.
È naturale, non dà disgusto,
e lo speziale non lo sa far.

È un certo balsamo che porto addosso:
dare te’l posso, se’l vuoi provar.
Saper vorresti dove mi sta?
Sentilo battere…
… toccami qua!"

-Don Giovanni, atto II, scena 6

Opera is mostly known for drama and tragedy, but there's also plenty of sensuality in it, especially in Mozart-Da Ponte operas! So here's Irina in a slightly more... Disinhibited mood. For the sake of putting up a show worthy of Mozart himself, she's willing to sink fully into the role given to her... With body and mind. But, mind you, linger too long on her figure and she shall give you a run for your money! A princess is still a princess.

...Anyway, since I'm in the mood for surprises there is a 5th secret artwork which is a little bit spicier and that you can view on my Patreon page! Support is always welcome, if you like what I do!✨💖 I'm still in the process of writing this part where the characters are adult... Which should be my favorite since it involves Mozart (and more adult themes and romance) and I really want to make a good job!

(ENG lyrics)

Zerlina: "You’ll see, my darling, if you behave
a fine cure I will give you!
It's natural and not unpleasant

and one that no apothecary can make.

It’s a certain balm which I carry on me.
I can give it to you, if you would like to try.
Do you know where I keep it?
Feel it beating…
…touch me here!"

-Don Giovanni, act II, scene 6

I felt like showing you a little more of this character, so here's Carmen! She's always up to something unpredictable with Florien and Maximilien and those two can hardly keep up with her... But at least they focus on cooperation rather than falling into their old pattern of eternal rivalry🤭✨
