Please fullview! (': You get a detail shot of the lyre either way because it has details harder to see even in proper fullview.

Some inspiration talk under the cut!

I used this fresco of a lyre player as inspo for Paris' clothing. The restoration of the upper half looks different, but given there are lines that the restoration haven't followed through on, I feel it's much more logical the lyrist is wearing a tunic like we usually see, and that what he's wearing on the bottom is a wrap-around fringed skirt like we see women have instead of what the restoration seems to be going for, which is a sort of... robe/dress? The mountains in the wall fresco was also partially inspired by the rocks he's sitting on.

I was originally going to try and include all nine Muses and even Apollo on the bottom of the lyre, but I kinda ran out of steam and there isn't really enough space, anyway. So instead I've limited it to the Muses that seemed to me to "fit" Paris' general spheres of music/personality; Erato for love poetry, Euterpe for lyric poetry, Terpsichore for dancing, Thalia for bucolic/pastoral poetry, and lastly Kalliope for epic poetry!

Paris is not holding/playing that lyre as an Achaean lyrist would, with a plectrum; he's plucking it with his fingers like he would on an Eastern asymmetrical lyre instead I forgot he should've been using a plectrum but shhh this works too

:) the cups I took inspiration from this one, plus adding the the very popular octopus motif as well.

And yet at last they met once more, And long ago they passed away In the forest singing sorrowless.

Vol 10 be like

Weiss, handcuffing herself to Jaune (right hand) and Ruby (left hand): "I am not going to let you 2 run off again, you damn martyrdom obsessed jerks. You are going to stay by me and get some damn therapy."

Ruby, looking curiously at the binding, considering: "Does this count as a date?"

Jaune, nodding: "I say it counts as a date."

Weiss, pleased: "It Is A Date! I have won bisexuality."

Is that how you attach the wheel onto a chariot? Looks like it's working pretty well for him, though. ;)

The Prince has said to Na’haya that Voss was his sword arm but the liberator was his war spoils; the reward for his battle against ghaik, lich, and traitor. Something prized, something treasured, something hard-won. -words by @nothingimportantanywhere

I got a beautiful commission from @redreart of Vanquish and Orpheus sharing a wee tender moment and I'm so, SO happy they're so beautiful and deserve a little quiet downtime and happiness together amongst everything (no Voss in sight for 5 mins lmao).

I highly reccomend commissiong her, her work is beautiful! Thank you again, lovely!

People fighting whether if XiaoJin or HwoaJin is better are so funny, because the obvious and the only correct answer is that they're a polycule. 🧡❤️💙

Hello yes I'm here to be very predictable and ask for 💖 + Waxer/Boil (or Waxer/Boil/Rex if you're feeling ambitious? XD)

Well then, you can't just throw me a challenge like that and not expect me to take it. This involves only one pair kissing and the third one appreciating the view.

** ** **

💖 rough kiss / hot and heavy / making out

Despite his short life and the war that sometimes weighed him down, Waxer had seen many amazing things in his life.

He had watched an aiwha calf, still smooth and unscarred, glide through the air alongside its mother, seen the brilliant shades of green of Naboo, and witnessed the tiny, pleased smile Boil does when he gets his first cup of caf in the morning.

There were several other things, memories of places and brothers that Waxer considered just as amazing or pretty or even breathtaking.

And this? This was yet another thing Waxer would add to that long list, eagerly so.

Because watching Boil devour Rex's mouth, holding the blond man's hands over his head, pinning them into the bulkhead was one of the prettiest things Waxer had seen in months. Boil and Rex's fingers were laced together but Waxer saw Rex's fingers twitch and curl every time Boil did something especially good, followed by low, breathless sounds of pleasure.

Waxer shifted against the wall to find a more comfortable position, the tightness of his beneath codpiece growing even tighter as Boil pushed his thigh between Rex's, the black kama flaring open as Rex eagerly spread his stance.

Then, Rex bit Boil's bottom lip, tugging it hard enough to make Boil groan. "F-fffuuuck," Boil swore when he was released, and Waxer could see the flush covering his cheeks, the way the color was slowly spreading all over his face and ears.

Rex, oh Rex wasn't any better with his face red as a Corellian apple.

But what had Waxer swallowing, his throat suddenly dry, was the heated look Rex was giving to Boil, those familiar dark eyes burning with desire.

Then that gaze turned to Waxer, pinning him down just as effectively as he might've physically.

"Waxer," Rex called, his voice husky and enticing, and Boil actually shuddered from the tone of it, fingers tightening their hold. "Kiss me, too."

Frozen, Waxer watched Rex lick his lips quickly, dark and kiss-swollen, and it was yet another sight that was going to sear itself into Waxer's memory.

Then Waxer was moving. Two steps and his hand grabbed Rex's jaw, turning it towards him and their mouths clashed in a rough kiss.

Waxer wasn't sure which one of them let out the breathless, elated moan. It could've been him but Waxer didn't care. Not when Rex kissed him back, hungry and eager and Boil started to suck Waxer's earlobe.

Watching Rex and Boil make out was pretty as hell but this was even better.
