No Graves snippet
It was too easy, to sink into living the life the Archeron’s carved out.
By the time Lucien awoke the next morning, in a slightly too-short bed that was among the furniture that had come with the property, they were already gone. A note greeted him, in Nesta’s slanting hand: furniture at 11, trees at 1, stay to sign.
A fire he hadn’t lit, hungry red that spit sparks to ask him, have you lost your mind?
He did not need to see Eris, much less hear him, to understand the actual sentiment, though it bled from the question the kitchen hearth threw at him by the time Lucien was done brewing tea: that city is a godsforsaken death trap. The messages the High Lord is sending do not come from a well man. Do you need help?
Lucien would have very much liked to read those missives. He could imagine the demands: armies, promises, money. Based on what? The name of the most famous traitor in the land, who no one had been surprised to see commit atrocities in Hyberns name, even compelled. Not after how he’d spent the last few centuries ruling the North.
SAPLING, the fire yelled.
An extra four hundred years that touched only Lucien was near enough to level their ages, which made the tone feel very unfair. Still fond, though. He was not actually offended enough to let the fire scorch Nesta’s new kitchen.
“I’m fine,” Lucien said, aloud, his own voice proof and magic too. Eris was Vanserra enough to feel every path through a forest- to be both outraged and know that something fundamental was changed. “Stop worrying and stay alive, old man. I’ll see you on the battle field.”
He’d see him at the summit of lords, but it was a sure enough warning: Lucien, like Eris, inclined still toward a single truth.
To fight if they had to, to stop the sort of carnage Hybern was capable of unleashing on their land.

I already promised some more MSA sketches in the future for my watchers, but I figured ya'll deserved at least one cleaned up sketch right now since I haven't posted any art of the gang in awhile. Purely for fun as I've always wanted to draw the gang in more alternate outfits. :D

so there's this post that talks about how people call jason's curved knife a kris but it's not a kris 'cuz why would he have a southeast asian knife? and op's tags say if you're gonna give him an 'exotic' weapon at least make him malay or something. a later reblog adds a filipino kris as an example, and then i was like, 'omg, jason in a barong tho.' SO i tried designing a bat-barong inspired by his hood logo, for a filipino jason haha. and now here we are! 😊✨️🇵🇭

ough toshiro is speedrunning his way to being one of my fav characters. He's so autistic and terrible at expressing himself and comes from a high context "saying no is extremely rude" culture. He is a foreigner. He withdraws when he's overwhelmed because he can't express articulately his needs. The most selfish thing he ever did was ask his family to try and rescue falin with him. He respects laios so damn much, and had a hard time telling laios to back off cause he didnt want to be rude to someone he sees as so sincere. He's dedicated and hard working to a fault. That dedication and respect is how he says "i love you." I want this man to be fed and happy.
