Sooooo, my friend Reg who is not only a total sweetheart but also a master artist worked on a commission for me during the last two weeks.
And very conveniently (she didn't know that) sent it so me yesterday, one day before my birthday. So naturally, I can not keep this to myself. I just NEED to share it (with her permission of course). I mean: LOOK AT THIS. ISN'T THIS THE BEST THING EVER?
Please, go on and leave lots of love for her in the notes and make sure to follow her on Tumblr for more of this beautiful art. *___*
And if anyone is interested in the fanfic this artpiece is for, it's Fuel On The Fire on Ao3. I you love our favourite soup-cooking criminal & are also into fantasy novels, then this might be the one for you. We are heading into darker themes, though, so please heed the tags (they get updated with every chapter).

People didn't like Dorcas Meadowes. That was just a matter of fact. Of course it didn't mean every single person hated them, but it was common knowledge that they were unlikeable. It was the general population's viewpoint. And Dorcas had to agree with it, they were indeed very unlikeable. They sat alone in class, at meals, in the common room.
And then came Regulus Black. He was rude, expressionless, selfish, self centred, and entirely unlikeable. Dorcas Meadowes loved him.
Regulus was in the year below Dorcas and had one friend. A hufflepuff girl in his year that seemed to always be rapidly talking to him. Pandora, Dorcas found out her name was. And Pandora was also entirely unlikeable; she was loud, strange, also selfish, and said whatever she thought.
Dorcas instantly loved her after one conversation.
"You stare a lot. At people. I noticed when you were staring at me and Regulus. Oh! You're doing a charms essay! I love charms, especially the professor. Do you like him? Regulus despises him, I think it's cause he calls him out for questions. He hates that. Do you hate it? I tried to tell Flitwick to not choose Regulus for questions as it makes him panic but Flitwick just said that's how you learn and so I told him that's not true and he must be a terrible teacher if he thinks that. He gave me detention but it was a night detention so I was allowed to break the rule of not being out at night, which is kind of hypocritical of them, isn't it? Making people break rules to punish them for breaking rules, it would just encourage more people to break rules-"
Dorcas smiled slightly. Merlin, how they loved this person already.
Regulus approached them next. They were just leaving quidditch practice when he appeared right in front of them.
"Meadowes, yes?"
"That's me."
"And you know who I am, yes?"
"I do."
He stared at them for a few seconds, so they stared back.
He blinked, "Teach me."
"Teach you what?"
He pointed at their broomstick, "Quidditch. I wish to make the team as a seeker next year."
Dorcas smirked, "And what? You suck at it so you need help?"
"I'm great at flying. Better than the seeker on the team at the moment."
"Then why do you need my help?"
He stood up even straighter than before, "To get better, to ensure I definitely make the team."
Dorcas shrugged, "Fine. But you're a Slytherin, you know how this works. You owe me."
He glared, "What do you want?"
They looked at Regulus and the blonde girl that sat in the stands a few metres away, reading a magazine.
Dorcas turned back to Regulus, "I help you, and you and your friend over there sit with me for meals."
He raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "You're that lonely?"
"I'm not lonely. I just like studying people. And you two are clearly the most interesting."
Regulus sighed, "Fine. You help me and you can study me and Pandora as much as you wish."
At that, Pandora bounded over.
"Are you making a friend, Regulus?"
"No." They both replied simultaneously.
She laughed and handed a flower each to Dorcas and Regulus.
"What's this?" Dorcas asked.
"A flower... they're not very smart, are they Regulus?"
Regulus snorted, "Nope."
"Fuck off." Dorcas laughed.
Regulus seemed to take that literally and grabbed Pandora's arm as he headed off the pitch.
"I love them. We should hang out with Dorcas more. They're very likeable, aren't they?"
Regulus nodded slightly and looked back, "They are."

i am once again thinking about the hilichurl rogue :(
the first time i fought it was actually yesterday after climbing a mountain in fontaine cause i wanted to see what it was and the drops really reminded me of neanderthal flower burials + how both neanderthals and hilichurls are/have been seen as primitive beings despite tons of evidence to the contrary (ignoring what we know about khaenri'ah since the curse of the wild seems to cause them to be catatonic for a period of time).
theres tons of literature on how neanderthals actually appear to be similar to homo sapiens and have higher mental functioning as evidenced through their tools, their presumed social structures (taking care of injured/disabled neanderthals rather than abandoning them as would be thought of beings focused only on survival), but most notably for this the evidence of "flower burials" at Shanidar.
Basically, two neanderthals were found buried in primarily medicinal flowers (indicating their possible role in their group). I believe there were 11(?) other neanderthals found there who appeared to have been crushed by rockfall whos ages (if my memory is correct) were from around 7 to mid 40s. The reason i bring this up is because of one of the flowers found at Shanidar: Achillea/Yarrows. I find these flowers to be fairly similar in appearance of the petals (excluding size) to the hilichurl rogues drops
Now, each drops description:
A Flower Yet to Bloom
"a wildflower that a hilichurl rogue treasured. it was plucked before it could bloom. the hilichurl takes nothing with it in its sojourn across the wilderness save this flower."
Treasured Flower
"a wild flower that a hilichurl picked bereft of any special qualities. flowers can be used as gifts or offerings to express ones feelings in many cultures"
for this description in specific i would actually like to quote Ralph S Solecki's "The Implications of the Shanidar Cave Neanderthal Flower Burial"
"Under normal circumstances, today, in many cultures, flowers and death go together, as one can see a funeral corteges and burials. The association of flowers as tokens of esteem, respect, or for the joy of looking at [...]. According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, 'the flower has been a universal symbol of beauty in the civilizations of the world. Confucius included its cultivation among the arts that were essential to a man of culture.' We pride ourselves thinking that we know a lot about Neanderthal man, but the association of flowers with Neanderthals adds a whole new dimension to our knowledge of him, and his humanistic nature."
Wanderer's Blooming Flower
"a blooming wild flower that a hilichurl rogue treasured, bereft of any special qualities. the eternal outlander asks not for reward, but only to see their deeds come to fruition"
TLDR (abstract lol); hilichurl rogue drops remind me of the neanderthal flower burials found at shanidar
below the cutoff are some sources if you want to do further reading on neanderthals
(im not an anthropologist or even studying it btw but here are some articles on neanderthals i used for a bibliography on neanderthal spirituality in an anth class last winter in case you want to read up on it, theyre formatted in SAA kinda)
