[beanghostprincess]

Your tattoo looks fantastic! But can i ask how its connected to sanuso? Im missing context i think

Thank you!! I wanted something subtle of them!! Basically, you know how all the strawhats have flowers to represent them?

Because Cal deserves rest too.

Spent a couple of days on this because I am sad about just how much Cal has been through and I think he deserves to sleep for a while. He and his loved ones hold flowers with various meanings:

Cal’s calla lilies mean both beauty and death, reminiscent of the grief he carries with him all the time.

BD-1’s heliotropes are indicative of eternal devotion and love.

Merrin’s honeysuckles represent the devotion and affection of a lover’s embrace and are believed to ward off evil spirits.

Greez’s carnations carry the simple but strong message “I’m proud of you.”

The ghost of Cere gifts a daylily, a flower usually denoted to mothers and often given to those in a rough patch so that they can move on.

Kata holds out daffodils, a sign of forgiveness.

The ghost of Jaro brings magnolias, for nobility, perseverance and dignity.

The ghost of Cordova gifts chamomile, for rest, peace and calmness.

And the lotuses, reminiscent of rebirth, resilience and strength, are from the ghosts of all the other Jedi that were lost with the purge. I like to think that they’re watching over him.

Cal on his own version:

Also featuring my design for what I like to imagine he’d have in the third game. Because I like long hair, pretty fashion and colours. I think Cal deserves to have nice things for once.

Flowers of Elarion

Here's my interpretation on Aaravos with some flowers of Elarion (in glow pens because it's fun). I based them off of hyacinths for several reasons:

1. Hyacinths are my favorite flowers

2. Hyacinths smell AMAZING, and Tales of Xadia states that flowers of Elarion "have a scent that can soothe the most ragged spirit":

3. In flower language, hyacinths can symbolize jealousy, desire for forgiveness, and sincerity, among other things:

To me, this fits Lasair's story well. Leaving behind a flower as a gift as a way of asking for forgiveness for what they've stolen gives the gesture a bit more meaning. The sincerity/jealousy not only represents duality (a theme that is prevalent within the flowers of Elarion story) but also represents Lasair's feelings of jealousy for humans, who have enough to survive and don't need to steal, and the sincere desire for friendship and forgiveness.

I just think they're neat.

Cale as:

Red zinnias representing the stead beating of a heart, steadfastness, and family ties

Iris flowers representing faith, hope, courage, wisdom and admiration

🏵️ [ROSETTE] What flower symbolises your OC best and why? What does the flower mean in floriography?

thank you for the ask ♡(｡- ω -)

for nira'sae, it's always been forget-me-nots. sweet, delicate little blue flowers that grow in the most unlikely places. the soft colour matches their visual theme perfectly, to me. and in floriography, they stand for True Love, Faithfulness, and Remembrance. also very fitting.

as for minasha, i've always kinda been stuck on roses. usually a deep red, but sometimes softer - more peachy or orange. i can't say that i ever really had a concrete reason for it ╮(￣ω￣;)╭ i think when i was initially designing him, i liked the edenmorn weapons for his concept - which, of course, have beautiful rose decals on them. in floriography, roses can mean.. like. everything. all the things. but the main ones for him, are: Love, Desire, Unconscious Beauty and Pleasure/pain.

OC Interview Questions - Nature

[dolceaspidenera]

We all know at this point that the name Astarion is connected to the word "star" (starry or little star).

But Larian decided that they wanted to go all in with the details and they delivered!

The flower you can place on his tomb in the final romance scene (which I think is such a cute and tender gesture and I love his reaction to it), seems to be an Ornithogalum umbellatum, a star-shaped white flower with six petals. Among the plant's many common names, there are summer snowflake, starflower, and star-of-Bethlehem.

Moreover, in the language of flowers, its meanings are related to trauma, mourning, and welcoming pain without repressing it.

According to Doctor Edward Bach (1886 – 1936), these flowers are "For those who find themselves in a state of great anguish due to situations that, in a given period, have caused so much unhappiness", and can be used to help with the aftermath of a trauma, the alleviation of pain and the mourning process.

Edit: every time I see an artist include this flower in their Astarion fanart my heart swells with joy. Love this community

💐 / sherliam, flower language

when married to a guy whose mind palace only stores flowers with poison/medicinal value

I recently got a book, “Floriography: An Illustrated Guide to Victorian Language of Flowers” and it was fun applying it here! I imagine Liam knows Sherly doesn’t really bother to remember flower language, so incorporates Sherly’s knowledge of poisons/medicinal herbs for the fun of it!

Brothers, doomed by birthright, doomed by love, doomed by darkness.

My piece for the @mementomoristrahdzine of Strahd and Sergei

My wonderful DM altered their relationship fairly heavily so I wanted to represent their relationship through a portrait that could sit comfortably in the castle full of hidden meanings and secrets. Truly honored to be a part of this project! Everyone was so wonderful to work with and I am thrilled for the next one! Thank you @curseofsergei for running this!

[king-dumbasz]

Just a reminder that mimosas mean Sensibility, kindness, tenderness, safety, sensitivity, respect (often given to women on women's day)

Basically, he's a softie

GABV1EL NATON LISTEN

i was on tiktok when i found these flowers and oh my god they are very them!! (apologies for my incoherence i am insane for these two)

orange lily: aka the enemies to ??? (lovers? idk) flower. self explanatory but hey gabe's fixated as hell on the 'insignificant fuck' turned duel partner or whatever secret third fucked up thing they have /lh

white poppy: representing v1 with how their victory over gabriel became both his bane with how he got his light stripped off him therefore bringing him harm as well as the entire duel thing. the antidote parts comes from gabriel being freed from heaven's control as if like a poison that clouded his mind with their views and v1 clearing them away in the messiest way possible.

asphodel: representing gabriel with how he's dying and may have many regrets in his mind like killing minos, being wrathful towards the sinners etc. you get it

rosemary: for how gabriel gets invigorated to the point of ecstasy in 6-2. v1 brought catharsis to an angel that never knew therapy and it shows /lh. also represents v1 since yk theyre a vampiric robot and gabriel is very flesh and blood. quite literally giving v1 a second chance on things and carnage

phlox: this one can be a reach but (HEAR ME OUT OKAY) for how they (gabv1el) keep bumping on each other twice (maybe even thrice in 9-2) after all ultrakill *is* gabe's story and v1 is a machine who happens to be another POV of that story

thats about it i think unless there is more to add. thank you for listening to my insane talk

[tlkdraws]

Kieran and Morning Glories, which mean unrequited love and obsession, depending on which language of flowers you’re looking at.

So there’s a creepy Kiki version too haha.

Drawn for some friends that love Kieran! \o/
