"The Black Cat" By Edgar Allan Poe

since it's my birthday today, I wanted to do something special as a (self-indulgent) treat, so here’s Oleander if he was in Termina 😋

He looked to the west at the setting sun, shielding his tired eyes with his gloved hand, before saying: “It’s getting late, perhaps we should find a place to rest for the night.”

“Come on!” exclaimed the yellow mage, almost insulted by such an absurd suggestion. “The night is young! And we’re in Jettaiah of all places! Let loose a little!”

“I do not ‘let loose’,” stated the dark priest flatly. “This pilgrimage has an important goal, and I simply cannot get distracted by such frivolous nonsense.”

“Have fun doing that, then. Or don't,” scoffed the yellow mage. “I’m going to an opium den a brother recommended to me.”

I decided to post this again because it's my blog, and I do what I want. 😋

One Night by hav1ng_fun

Hey guys, I recently published a one-shot fanfic on AO3! It's Cahara/Enki AU, so if you're interested, feel free to check it out!

Here's the description:

On his pilgrimage to the Eastern Sanctuaries, a young dark priest stumbles into an opium den, where he meets a stranger, who seems to be very interested in spending the night with him while indulging in opium smoking. 😊

I also drew an illustration 🤭

“hey my partner saw you from across the dungeon and we hate your vibe. he’s gonna cast hurting on you”

A sneak peek from something I’m working on 🫣

being an artist is great because if you feel like your favorite character/ship isn't getting enough recognition, you can just draw something yourself, unless ☝️ you don't have time, in which case you have to starve like everyone else

“This arrow? It's nothing. It's none of your concern anyway."

I might delete this later when I eventually remake it, because, as previously established, I am not very good at building the physical figures. Still, I am pretty satisfied with the design itself as of now. 😮‍💨

I made a paper-craft figure of Oleander, but it looks kinda wonky because I am not good at assembling them 😔

D’arce from band AU by @gutsfroggie‼️ I love how the characters in her au look so much 😩 I really dig their vibe

UMM ABSOLUTELY I WANT TO HEAR ABT YOUR FUNGER GUY?? tell me abt him!!

His name is Oleander (which means “an evergreen tree” 🌿) and he is a herbalist/folk healer, which he took up after his ageing mother! He has the Caressing soul type and he is in the dungeons to search for a rare herb (something silphium adjacent), which is said to grow there because of the presence of the old gods. Thank you sm for asking! 🫶

(I drew this in my biochemistry class 🤪)

over on my instagram I said that I'd like to revisit my old ocs (especially my favorite old man John) once I'm finished with my exams and I was wondering, if you guys would be interested in the lore. and if so, would you prefer a good ol' lore dump, or would you like me to share the lore more "organically" (tho I can't guarantee that I'll be consistent enough for that...)

let me know what you think! feel free to share any thoughts/suggestions/requests 👀

old art moment 😭🙌
