Children of James I

Love drawing historical fashion and art. The three children of King James.

Yeah Brutus, don't play with your stupid knife.

Romania dressed as Howl from the ghibli movie :)

the most excellent request ever probably

Wee teuton and livonia (latvia).....

Two kids you'd think would fine together in a "they'll balance each other out!" way but it turns out they personality clash like crazy and have to be carefully supervised because teuton drives livonia crazy and makes him act out of his usual character with his selfishness, greed, relentless bullying and aggressive manner.

“Leviathan’s Fishhook”

Richard takes a break from suppressing rebels in the south, Philippe has his first rude Brother Experience(TM), and King Louis nurses a grudge against his rival vassal.

Inspired by the account in Matthew Strickland’s Henry the Young King, where he speculates that at some point Louis may have been deceived into giving up Alys to Henry II’s court with the promise that Richard might be given to him. Gillingham takes a much less sympathetic view, saying ‘to lose one daughter was a mistake, but two is carelessness.” Or something to that effect Lol

Uh guys idk if u know but I heard this guy is kinda problematic....i saw some of u following him and I think you all should know :/ yeah it's for YouTube crimes

Bilbo: I want to see mountains again, Gandalf – mountains; and then find somewhere where I can rest.

Gandalf: Look, you’re old, rich, single, and weird. If seeing mountains is really the last thing you need to do before you die, I’m thankful for it. 

Los Austrias

Silly idea of Don Juan, what if his story took place in the modern day. Inspired by other artists' ideas. A young Don Juan and his family.

Ciresarii

The main characters of the five books, in an unfinished group photo.

why would you like media that is good if you can like media that is bad instead and pace around your room like an insane person thinking about What If It Was Good

Imagine saving your favorite historical figure from their worst mistake

A very merry (medieval) Christmas!

besides all the king/crown prince metaphors about how the united states stepped into the shoes of the british empire, ngl one reason i find the arthur-alfred familial dynamic best is how they might look to humans uninitiated in the eldritch-immortal-nations-exist conspiracy. the casual mention of "oh, lord kirkland has a son, mentions what a pain in the arse he is all the time—" might bring to mind images of some, pale knobbly-kneed 13 year old brat attending eton or harrow or some other posh place. because even in the 1940s, i think arthur still doesn't look quite withered enough to have Adult Children even if he has the mother of all eyebags. but then one day there's a smug, obnoxious, 6 foot plus u.s army captain in a dress uniform throwing the door open with a bang drawling "still alive and kicking huh, you old fart? well i got you your fucking cigars and ice-cream!" well i never. sure, there were many hard-up lords marrying newly rich american heiresses to plug the gaping hole in their finances in the 1900s to save their massive landed estates, but who knew sir lord arthur bloody kirkland has a Yank (tm) for a son unlike the other respectable lords who, goodness! at least made sure their half-american children had the most stuck-up accents like lady mary crawley in downton abbey.

To Lovino and Tolys:

Any Saints you guys have a particular devotion to?

Tolys: I'm not terribly religious, but there is a certain comfort in having someone looking out for you.

**Contextual Note, TW for brief mention of sexual assault and torture:

Just a brief overview of the saints Lovino and Tolys mentioned. St. Agatha of Sicily was a Christian noblewoman who was killed during the Decian persecutions. She made a religious vow of chastity that a Roman prefect attempted to break. As punishment for rejecting him she was imprisoned and forced to "work" in a brothel. When this did not break her, she was tortured, most notably by having her breasts ripped off with hot tongs. This is why she is often depicted in art with tongs or presenting her breasts. A miraculous earthquake prevented her execution and supposedly St. Peter appeared to her and healed her wounds, but she eventually died in prison of unknown causes. Among other things, she is the patron saint of victims of torture, rape victims, breast cancer patients, fires, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions (particularly from Mt. Etna). As Lovino mentioned, she is the patron of Sicily, as well as the Sicilian city of Catania.

St. Christopher was also killed during the Decian persecutions. According to legend, he traveled to find a king who claimed great power, only to find he feared the devil. When he found a marauder who claimed to be the devil, he found that this criminal feared Christ. Learning this, he chose to become Christian and serve people by helping them cross a dangerous river. In doing this, he helped a small child across the river who was much heavier than he anticipated, and almost died in the process. After crossing, the child revealed himself to be an apparition of Christ, pleased with his work. Christopher was eventually beheaded after travelling to Lycia to help his fellow Christians. Among other things, he is the patron saint of travelers, transportation, bachelors, athletics, and storms. As Tolys mentioned, he is the patron of Vilnius, Lithuania's capital (Riga as well!)
