Kushiel’s Legacy GIF sets || Dominic Stregazza & Thérèse de la Courcel
“Now, which one of the Stregazza is Thérèse?” I asked, when I gauged that he was no longer paying attention to me. “Is she the firstborn? Prince Benedicte’s daughters are House Courcel, I thought.”
“They’re of the Blood by birth, like Lyonette de Trevalion, but Thérèse married a Stregazza cousin. Dominic.” I had caught his interest; his voice ran a little ahead of his thoughts. Alcuin had always been better than I at royal genealogies. “A bad match, by all reckoning; he’s a minor Count, but then she was second-born. First is Marie-Celeste, who wed the Doge’s son. It’s her son stands to inherit La Serenissima. Once Prince Rolande died, I wager Dominic Stregazza thought to poise his family near the D’Angeline throne, though.”
“And found his path blocked by House L’Envers,” I mused. “How disappointed he must have been. But why would Delaunay care who killed Isabel L’Envers? By all counts, she was his enemy.”

De Magie van La Serenissima, een ReisKunst-Verhaal
De magie van Venetië. Een nieuw ReisKunst-Verhaal in mijn blog TOOS&ART. Van drukte tot rustige, betoverende avondschemering en 's nachts aangelichte paleizen aan het Canal Grande – Altijd weer volop inspiratie voor mijn Venetië-schilderijen #Venice #art
Toos van Holstein, Venezia (olieverfschilderij 130-100 cm)
Lang, lang geleden was ik er voor ‘t eerst. Nog met m’n ex. Lang, lang geleden dus. Toen bewoog ik me, zoals bijna al die dagjestoeristen dan altijd doen, door een drukke, lange en ingewikkeld kronkelende soort Kalverstraat. Lopend vanaf het station richting Piazza San Marco. Om nou te stellen dat die dag een diepe indruk maakte. Nee,…

WIP Wednesday, but it's a Thursday
I was tagged by the awesome @greypetrel ✨thank you so much!! ;u;
Finally, I can draw something unrelated to Art Fight lmao that's so relieving!!
Left: Two potatoes being very pink <3 I'm taking my time with this one because I want to achieve a certain effect but I need to study a couple of things rendering-wise before putting more stuff on paper <<
Right: A wild Luca appears! In the form of rough sketches. I'm torn between two options (we're going for nobiliar / high status costumes), but I do really want to draw a toga so... um... I'll ponder for a moment before finalizing a sketch
Tagging: @herearedragons @dreadfutures @underneathestars & whoever wants to share their stuff <3

Kushiel’s Legacy GIF sets || Severio Stregazza
“Charmed, Comtesse.” Severio Stregazza’s surly tone, in faintly accented D’Angeline, said otherwise. He tugged at the stiff ruff of lace at his neck. At close range, he had a sheen of sweat on his features, and he looked uncomfortable in his costume. Severio had been born and raised in La Serenissima. No more than a year or two older than me at best, he was clearly ill at ease in his surroundings and awkward at the evidence of his mixed blood at a D’Angeline fête. His hot, irritable gaze took my measure. “You’re very beautiful,” he said abruptly. “I suppose we’re related somehow?”
“No, Prince Severio,” I said, shaking my head. “My lord Anafiel Delaunay de Montrève of Siovale adopted me formally into his household, and it is his title that I inherited. We are no kin, you and I.”
“That’s a relief.” He tugged harder at his collar, scowling. “Damn nigh every noble I’ve met claims kinship to the throne one way or another. I can’t keep it all straight in my head.”
“It is not easy, cousin,” Bernadette commiserated kindly. “I grow confused myself, trying to sort out the tangled threads of Blessed Elua’s descendants.”
Severio Stregazza gave her an ungracious glance. I could not blame him for his anger and discomfort, in truth; in this, of all gatherings, his coarse curls and the ruder cast of his features showed clearly the dilution of Elua’s lineage, brought to La Serenissima in the person of Benedicte de la Courcel, great-uncle to Ysandre. “Your inheritance seems clear enough, cousin.”

De esa poca presumible forma se le conoce a la selección mayor de futbol de San Marino, la peor selección del mundo, y esta es la razón.
El pasado domingo la “Serenissima” (como también se le llama a la selección de San Marino), disputó un partido eliminatorio para la Euro 2024 contra su similar de Eslovenia, el cual perdió por 2 goles a 0.
Pero muy…
