someone on twitter is trying to claim that use of an em-dash is an indication of AI-generated writing because it’s “relatively rare” for actual humans to use it. skill issue

anyway if dracula daily made you realize how great the book dracula is, please read jekyll and hyde, it's also extremely good. and the audiobook narrated by richard armitage is EXCELLENT.

companion details: gale dekarios.

SO 👏 a few months ago in the bloodweave brainrot server folks were talking about Gale being spacey and sleepy after Astarion fed on him, and my brain latched onto that like a leech. Took me a bit to work up the nerve to try doing anything synced to music, but ta-daaaaaaa~

This was particularly inspired by a little snippet written from that conversation by Mumble_Bee on AO3! Do give it a read if you want a lovely little dose of protective Astarion and silly, loopy Gale-

Idk how Tumblr works when it comes to audio, but in case it gets muted this is based on a TikTok trend using the song On Melancholy Hill 🎉

Earlier

(Redraw of my all time favorite critical role scene I originally drew two years ago)

I was gonna draw this out of spite after it didn’t happen in tlovm but I’m glad I waited until I got to it in my rewatch so I got to experience how these two really grew, it just emphasizes to me even more just how big this conversation is for them.

shhhh he's sleeping (careful, don't yearn too loud or you'll wake him)

My mermay piece is finally done!! Inspired by Chapter 7 of Calm His Sea by pretty_sick_actually. Close up and timelapse under the cut.

living a beautiful lie

(i like to believe astarion's family is still out there and after the events of the game he finds them - he was a magistrate, kind of an important person, so there MUST be some papers about him + he's a hero of the city, ofc he has access to them.

and and

and his mother is so happy [i call her Isilmë]

he doesn't remember her well, but i feel like the hug of a mother is something truly unforgettable in its warmth and comfort. astarion is lucky to find it again after so much time.)

a small comic i want to develop. finding your family after 200 years is surely something

let me live my delusions

Call me crazy but Astarion is very Meg from Hercules coded to me

BG3, Astarion.
