Not to be an unbearable plot tease, but I'm editing/rewriting a chapter from Hunger Pangs book 2, and while I adore all of my characters equally, Vlad and Ursula getting to know each other properly might actually be some of my favorite moments.

His realization that he can pester Ursula to tell him more about random historical events as they actually happened, not how they are portrayed in history books, is so, so sweet. He's like an excited labrador who just found a dinosaur bone.

Ursula's very much not used to this kind of attention.

She's used to people only being interested in her power. And here's a werewolf who couldn't give less of a fuck about exploiting her magic for his own gain, and a vampire who wants to ask her what textile production was like circa the fall of the Ecrecian Empire.

Do you think you can draw Jennifer waking up with a bedhead and having a bad hair day while she has that tired groan expression waking up to go to school ?

I think that would look interesting ! :O

if i may ask, who the fuck is fitz vacker?

This is a delightful ask to receive as someone known for being vocally unwell about and obsessed with Fitz

For those new/following for other things, a fair chunk of my blog is dedicated to the Keeper of the Lost Cities series by Shannon Messenger, a middle grade sparkly elf dystopia series that crawled into my head when I was 12 and still holds me hostage. I've literally been called a walking kotlc encyclopedia on multiple occasions

One of the main characters is Fitzroy Avery Vacker (official art linked), a teenage telepath from the secret elven world's most prominent (but not royal, that's not a thing) family. He's known for having teal eyes and the MCs undying ardor, which she conceals not at all.

He's the golden boy--top of his class, incredibly rare ability (the telepathy), charming, handsome, prestigious family, the works. But! He's also been sent on illegal missions to the human world by his father since childhood, looking for the MC.

Throughout the series he's drawn further into rebellion, following the MC as she uncovers the dirt under the shine of their "utopia." But even amongst friends, that Wonderboy status continues, creating this tension between the prestige he's been showered and burdened with his whole life and its slow unraveling. What worth does being golden have if the whole system's rigged? But how can he let go of all he's ever been?

And how the hell do you process that? He's got an incredibly strong sense of justice, values trust above all else--and his world and the people close to him are breaking it. How can he do anything but lash out, desperate to recenter himself?

To the point the Golden Boy, who bakes for his friends and has a sparkly red stuffed dragon he can't sleep without, nearly kills his traitorous brother with a knife to the throat. To the point when his traitorous brother is trapped behind glass, suffocating liquid pouring in from Fitz's frantic smashing at the control panel, Fitz deliberately steps away. Because he knows one of the buttons probably opens a drain, and he's choosing to let him die by his doing. Even though it wasn't on purpose. even though elves cannot abide violence, and risk shattering their sanity even witnessing it

GOD I love him. he's everything everyone else wants to be, he's deeply jealous and constantly fighting it, he's sweet and thoughtful, he's full of a rage so profound he can't think straight, he's putting his life on the line to better the world, he can't quite let go of what he thought it was, he's everything 2 me.

3 and 4 for the costume design ask game.

3. What is your favorite era for historical costume?

EARLY RENAISSANCE. SPECIFICALLY ITALIAN.

The Borgias is of course le ne plus ultra of this era but Medici the Magnificent isn’t too shabby either. rich colors AND gold AND pearls AND brocade AND slashed sleeves all wrapped up and presented in constant glorious golden sunlight is literally what God invented eyes to see. I’m even willing to overlook all this empire-waisted anti-hourglass propaganda, that’s how down bad I am.

4. What is your least favorite era for historical costume?

Generic Medieval Drab. you know the kind. desaturated af and gray/brown color graded until it’s the sartorial equivalent of a clinical depression diagnosis. I’m not even going to bother posting photos because looking at it upsets my humors.

Nigel and Alex have their rare moments of intimacy behind closed doors. Lingering touches, and blazing warmth.

Just two crime lesbians and their sleeping bisexual boss. Crime is tiring business.

May i hear about Noah's storyline? ^^

His design is absolutely delightful and he seems very fun <333

OK SO-- Noah and his extended crew (created by my friends @king-of-vertigo and @jaidethalagorra), actually began as OCs for the Beetlejuice universe. They are not Beetlejuice OCs anymore safe to say.

They've all evolved over time, we play with em like little dolls in our heads and put them in Situations. As of now, the three of them are still ghost hunters like they were originally, although more in the internet sense (think Ryan Bergara and Shane Madej from BuzzFeed Unsolved/Ghost Files. That sorta energy). Noah is usually the one holding the camera, but he's sorta shaky and really really really scared of ghosts, demons, vampires, and the like.

Recently it's been established between this little crew that they also stream part time? I like to think originally their internet presence was just their ghost hunting videos, but they did one or two special live streamed events, and now they regularly stream and vlog everything.

ANYWAYS that ramble aside, I'm really happy someone decides to come ask!!! Thank you for your interest (Not gonna lie I may come stalk your blog and send you some asks back--)

Cecil the goose stares at Epsilon before honking at him.

@goose-of-the-fatui

"Oh my god. Oh my god, it's here."

Epsilon backs quickly away from the waterfowl, fear evident on his face. He is starting to understand how passersby must've felt about the Hilichurl he armed with flamethrowers a few months ago. Geese? Already terrifying. Geese with weapons? Even worse.

Every time Odysseus says we’re almost home I’m like baby girl you wish

"I'm just a man who's trying to go home," says Odysseus in Just a Man, song 2 of 40.

Do you wish your brothers actually cared about you?

They do! They do. They do…
