A commission I've done for @little-box-of-wonders of her Horizon OC Elyrria (the daughter of Aloy and Kotallo) from her fic "To Know Peace".

You should TOTALLY go read it people! It's an adorable fic about them at different ages and it's really lovely and emotional! 💕

Chapter 3: tastes like fire (Part I)

When Aloy began to twist and strain, trying to reach a bruise near her left shoulder, Kotallo wordlessly plucked the jar of salve from her hands. He waited until she turned her back to him, then applied the medicine with firm but gentle touches. She allowed herself to relax into it, enjoying the tender care for a while, until they switched and she fastened a clean bandage over a nasty scrape on his lower back. "I'm sorry about that," Aloy murmured, finally breaking the silence, "I should've used more frost ammo to slow them down, make it easier for you to dodge—" "Don't apologize," Kotallo cut her off, though there was no edge to his voice. Aloy's fingers stilled nonetheless and he sighed. "It's a small price to pay. You didn't need to risk your life today by accompanying me there, and yet you did." His hand reached to lightly cover her own where it rested upon his waist, and he turned around to catch her eye. "I'm grateful, Aloy." Their gazes locked, and something seemed to ignite in the tiny space between them. The air was suddenly heavy with it — buzzing with a static charge that raised the hairs on Aloy's arms and made her forget any lingering pain she might have felt from her injuries. Kotallo's chest rose and fell with a deep, slow breath as he stared at her face. His lips parted softly. It was all the encouragement Aloy needed. "Can I kiss you?" she breathed, barely a whisper, and Kotallo moaned as he pulled her towards him.

Chapter 4: tastes like fire (Part II)

She reached out a hand, prompting the doors to slide open — and flinched back with a half-contained yelp. He was standing right there, Kotallo was, right outside her room with his arm raised as if about to knock, dressed in simple linen clothes instead of his usual armor and headpiece. Even more startling, though, was the fact that he was completely bare of all his paint. They both froze and gaped at each other for a long moment until Kotallo dropped his hand, straightening up. "Aloy," he said, and then, "Forgive me." She couldn't stop staring at his unpainted face, transfixed by the scattering of little moles dusted across his perfect skin. His throat moved as he swallowed. "I know you must be tired and that I should let you rest, but..." He trailed off when Aloy seized his forearm and yanked, pulling him with her over the threshold, and they fell together in a blaze-fire kiss. She arched into it with her entire being, rising up on her tiptoes and pushing her whole body flush against Kotallo's, wanting so badly to feel every part of him, and he met her in kind. Her arms locked around his neck at the same time his fingers found the hem of her tunic, stealing underneath and grazing her bare skin. Aloy jolted into him at the unfamiliar touch, pretty much hanging off his shoulders at this point because her knees most likely wouldn't have carried her anymore — not that it mattered. Kotallo was clutching her tightly, his mouth hot and hungry now as he devoured her, consumed her, and she could feel his carefully controlled restraint rapidly unraveling.

I will stand with you on your mission. Give whatever is left of my life.

How can I say no to that?

Okay. Forgive me for reposting. But I figured out how to get less compression out of the program, and that jpeg was just so bad. Please be patient with me while I learn how to use digital, I’m old and slow and used to watching paint dry.

So, here’s Da’mi again, plus a few details because I spent too much time on those small areas to lose them completely.

I promise I won’t be posting everything twice in succession.

For anyone worried because they write the same trope more than once: I love that shit. I will love that first one and I will still be excited for the thirtieth one. Let these idiots do the same thing over and over again. We deserve that.
