Prompt #: 47: "Greek mythos au. Laurent is the god of springtime, who rules over the harvest and fertility along with his big brother, the god of nature and sacred laws. He fulfils his role dutifully, but everything changes when he is swept to the underworld by the King and the god of death itself, Damianos. In Auguste's grief over losing his brother, the world above has been plunged into an unending winter."
Summary: This is Laurent before he was taken by Damianos in the underworld. I also have a selfie, but rather good quality, from the same shot, if you're interested. I hope everything's fine, it's my first time using a cosplay as a prompt!
See it here on Ari's Tumblr!

When I was getting changed out of my cosplay I suddenly felt a Laurent vibe and then pics?? happened??? he says as if he didn’t spend ages editing the shit outta them after
“He returned his eyes to the road, and the first part of his journey. South, and home.”
First set of my Damianos pics! The beard is a stretch, but I know we’ve got long-haired-Damen fans out there right? Just imagine a seasoned Akielon king, he’s a dad now and decided to follow in his father’s footsteps...
Help me reach Pacat!! I’m posting them on twitter (akielon_lion) and instagram (forestelffancies) too 💕
@capri-month II Day 1: Identity
In celebration of 10-years of Captive Prince!
I planned on using another picture for this day, but this one matches the promps and the anniversary-theme much more.
This is part of the second outfit of Laurent on which I’m working on. It’s the base for the campaign-outfit and will probably mostly be seen underneath an armour.
Quick Interpretation, for those who asked me why I’m not just posting any picture to keep my feed fed:
Let’s start with the background. Behind Laurent is a darker and red-ish space, presenting not only what has happened in hin past but also what is lurking behind his back during the whole story (darkness: war, death, violence, Intrigues, betrayal / red: blood, war, The Regent)
Infront of him is the bright future he is heading into. Or if you want to have it said in the cliché-way: It is the future his heart yearns for (hence the hand on the chest). Added grave flowers to remember the dead. There are also brown/redish specks of color, indicating that the color is not only meant to come with darkness (Akielos > Damen).
All in all it is a small display of the two-sided play the whole story is build up upon.
That was a quick view into the wibely-wobbely-mess I call my mind. I hope you still enjoy the picture anyhow. Happy 10 years!
How can you trust me, after what your own brother did to you?
Because he was false, and you are true. I think if I gave you my heart, you would treat it tenderly
