#c: the fool

"THE FOOL" - a Fairest Librorum (from Kith and Kin), who was often left to guard the vast knowledge of her Keeper in the guise of a strange horned lion-creature. What marks her different from a Beast is that even at her most intimidating, her mien is clearly cultivated. She is less wild, more deliberate. After escaping her Keeper, the Fool -- real name forgotten, left in the dust on a Victorian street (or was it earlier, it's not as if she can tell anymore) -- found herself guarding the tomb of a particularly manic Mummy ( @acheronarcanist ). It's a sweet enough deal for her. She sleeps, and rises, and helps. In turn, while her counterpart rests, as long as the Fool remains in the Tomb, her huntsman cannot find her.
It's a cozy life, and she's pleased to have it.

I made a few new wax seal stamps out of clay (like the ones I did for my worldbuilding stuff forever ago), this time just of random symbols that I thought might look good done in the style of painting over the raised part of the wax or etc. :0c Some of them aren't carved deep enough to really show up that well, but overall they worked okay for being clay lol
#wax seal#crafts#wax stamp#stationery#Window one is kind of stinky.. I was imagining like a swirly night sky sort of looking thing so it would be a surreal contrast of a night#sky with a window in the middle that shows a daytime sky - but the silver and purple wax kind of mixed too much together#with the black and it just looks very plain black and not all that starry or anything hjbhj.. Of course the eye is probably my favorite#since all I ever do is draw eyes and still like eye imagery for some reason. The four leaf clover is very lumpy and skrunkty but also it wa#the smallest in size out of all of them so was easier to do multiple stamps of just to try it out.#The heart with eyes wax is actually more swirly in person. I wanted it to be a mix of light pink and red and white. and the wax#did kind of all blend together but in person you can definitely see MORE of the intentional swirlyness. in this it just looks plain pink.#I was going to do one eye in the heart but it looked weird. but now two seems too plain. i could have done 3?? in a pattern.. hmm#alas. I wish I could make actual metal ones. With the clay i have to paint them in a thin layer of olive oil before stamping because#otherwise the wax just kind of gets stuck in the grooves of the clay and then you can't pull it up. Very wacky ''unprofessional'' looking#set up where I'm hot gluing circles of sculpey clay to short stumps of a wooden dowel that I sawed apart with a serrated bread knife#and then using an old paintbrush to put olive oil on them whilst holding a spoon over a yankee candle flame hjbjh#ANYWAY.. I think if I were middle class/rich/etc. this would be one of the main things in my crafting room is like.. SO many colors#of wax. and all different custom made stamps designed by me. which could be much more elaborate in actual metal.. muahaha.... >:)c#RHGghhh... I actually don't want to talk much about it since (this is probably just my Obsessed With My Own World Artist Delusions) I#think I have a really cool idea for a game that could genuinely be successful if i ever get to make it and I don't want to give#everything away and spoil the whole plot/concept in hopes that one day I can actually do it - BUT - a game that I'd like to make after the#visual novel I'm making now has partially to do with the main character working as a sort of writer/scribe/artist assistant in an elven#city (set in my world/with my worldbuilding species and versions of elves and etc) and I was thinking of maybe incorporating#somehow being able to collect little writing type items like these like.. you can get different wax seal patterns or pens or etc. when I do#stuff like this in Real Life it always makes me think of that like.. ouh... this is good research.. what it shall be like to be a littol#elf collecting wax seals and such.. indeed... GRR i need to be finished with my current game NOWWW... i MUST work on other#thingss... aughh... ANYWAY.. yay. accomplishment to do One Single Thing other than Sit In The Summer Heat And Rot#though also hilarious as this was the first cool-ish day that was below 80F in a while hgvh#waking up like 'wow.. i actually feel okay today?? like I could do things?? how mysterious.. I wonder why..?? :0'' Its The Weather You Fool#Tis Always The Weather

the way garak looks at bashir as he puts all the clues together at the end of cardassians. the sheer 'look at that little twink go (affectionate, sexual overtones)' energy he manages to convey in the background there as bashir passionately does the presentation of their group project that garak did 80% of the actual work on. immaculate

if anyones wondering what the vibes in the archives in this au are in my head:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This random guy swans into the institute:
1) marked by so many of the fears you'd think he was collecting them,
2) Sneaks up on an Omniscient Avatar Of A God Of Fear, and
3) Baffles a harbinger of death because he Cannot See This One What
and he somehow walks out with a job because the afformentioned god of fear wants to know What His Fucking Deal Is.
Chaos Ensues.

Long Live the Kings
My word.. I had to hurry up and save this or my art program was going to crash and ruin everything I worked on. xX; Kept struggling trying to save it towards the end there. Woof.
Anyways, enjoy the many different versions of King Boo!

Some drawings of Jago I did. I changed his look a bit to go more in line with the other Vveashul, but he’s still got his big ol ears. =( )_( )=
Idk I’ve just been in dress up doll mode but hey it works as clothing practice.
He let his hair grow out when he reunited with Kraw but in his previous job he kept it short and was kind of intense about being taken seriously with his rep where he mostly worked with Myce within the Ladder’s jurisdiction in the Drifting Lights Cluster (a group of connected uptown metropolis islands).

sketch ref wip for the The Fool -- or the Red-Toothed Wolf, as she's known in other Cities. :) Fallen London's first Werewolf, servant/right claw/paramour of Mr. Cards (as written by @acheronarcanist ) -- changed by her own perceptions as she blunders through Parabola and deals with the Starved Men (wounds. she means wounds, and the first Death, falling from the sky, ALL LOST, ALL HANDS LOST, SO PLUMMETS THE CROWNED CRANE), The Fool slowly becomes more of a shapeshifter; the Correspondence, the Discordance, all of it loops together to alter her sense of self. she wears, always, the red stockings, though often with big steel-toed boots.
