On a transport ship Somewhere near Aldebaran They won't hear you scream... #vss365 #transport #haiku

She had done the math over and over again. Her calculations were correct. So why didn't the formula work as intended? What was she missing? Why would #science abandon her now, when time was running out? #vss365

It was a losing game and everyone knew it. Their #numbers simply weren't high enough. Too few had made it. Still, they wouldn't give up. Either they would win against all odds or die trying. No matter the outcome, it would be on their terms. The horn sounded and they readied themselves. #vss365

There is this persistent #myth mermaids shed no tears. Show no remorse for sailors drowned. That isn't true. No one has ever seen us cry, because the ocean takes our tears away as soon as they start to fall. We are forever alone in our grief as we weep for all those lost at sea. #vss365

Art train! ❤️🚂🚃🚃🚃 4x4 - Share 4, tag 4! @irusabu.bsky.social @mostlyskin.bsky.social @jellisdraws.bsky.social @incognitopencil.bsky.social Have a wild mix of everything. 😂 #clairobscur #dainquisition #studioghibli #bg3

Fun fact, I had a YouTube channel like three years ago where I uploaded narrations of my very short stories and poems. I made this one around the time when Silent Hill f was announced. How time flies. Anyway, here’s the link to the entire thing: youtu.be/hRWJPEOOY2Y?... Enjoy and happy Halloween! 👻

QRP with your fanart I thought I'd use this opportunity to share all three notebook spreads of the patates in one post. 😁 Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is such a gorgeous game and a big motivation to push my art skills. 33/10 would recommend. 🌹🥖 #clairobscur #expedition33 #coex33 #fanart #digitalart

„And that’s the story about Verso‘s misadventure at the Gestral beach.“ - „You’re kidding me, aren’t you? I wish I could have seen that.“ Monoco and Maelle are finally finished! They've been a lot of fun to draw and such a silly pair. 🥰 #clairobscur #expedition33 #monoco #maelle

If you see this post, QRP with a WIP Monoco is the other half for my Maelle portrait and his anatomy is a struggle. xD Luckily I should get away with cutting off his left elbow, I just don't understand how this joint works. 😭 It currently sticks in Maelle's face anyway. 😅 #expedition33 #Monoco

Just make it exist first. You can make it look good later. I wanted to participate in this trend as well and it's pretty cool to see how the piece evolved. 😄 I just need to learn that trusting the process usually works. :') #sciel #clairobscur #expedition33 #justmakeitexistfirst #digitalart

Another #FromOneLine anthology is open for submissions? 😍 Time to start writing I guess. 🤭

The second pair of my accidental Clair Obscur portrait series is finished! Sciel definitely would say something cheeky to Lune, only for her to try to feign annoyance and not indulge Sciel any further. 😂 One pair to go! 🧡 #clairobscur #expedition33 #coex33 #sciel #lune #portrait

I have painted my #truth on the #wall in bold and colourful letters; touching it up when it fades, reapplying it if it gets painted over: You are here to stay. You matter. You're beautiful the way you are. I love you. #2WordPrompt

It was a #catastrophe. Nothing more, nothing less. He knew he was being dramatic. At least a little bit. Still, that revelation didn't help make the situation any better. #Perhaps he should give her a call. She always knew what to say to calm him down. The line rang as he waited in silence. #vss365

He needed to #stock up on provisions if he wanted to be ready for the things to come. So he went to the supermarket, loaded up his car and made his way back home. He stopped dead in his tracks when he opened the pantry. It was filled to the brim with the exact same items he just had bought. #vss365

Another week passed without any sign of the #conspiracy of ravens she had grown accustomed to in her garden. She wondered if they had finally decided to betray her. They had been the only witnesses after all. As a murder of crows took their place, she became restless. #FromOneLine 390 #vss365

We obviously can't forget about the sunshine that is Gustave. 🧡 He is such a sweetheart, rock throwing expert and always ready to lighten the mood. 🥰 #gustave #coex33 #clairobscure #expedition33 #fanart

Speaking about improvement, I finished Verso a few days ago and I haven't stopped thinking about him or the game ever since I finished the main story. 😭 Also, I love drawing hair and beards so much. 😍 #coex33 #expedition33 #verso #digitalart

Artists! Show an old piece you still love! This was my very first painted portrait and second ever side profile. I still remember how utterly proud I was of myself when I finished it in June last year. 🧡 My style and skill has evolved significantly since then, but I still love this silly wizard. 🥰

The way your face looked is already starting to slip my mind. How your eyes shone when you lost yourself in your music. Your cheeky grin when you made me laugh, often followed by a kiss. Your peaceful smile when you closed your eyes forever. This #vigil is as much for you as it is for me. #vss365

None of them had labels. It was a mystery how the paintress could tell each colour apart without having to open every little tin containing the pigments. She always grabbed exactly the colour she needed next, while fantastical worlds formed under each flowing stroke of her brush. #FromOneLine 386

For those who come after. I'm currently playing Expedition 33 and it's such a beautiful game, I can highly recommend it! My skills have improved with Verso's sketch already, I love to see the progress I'm making. 😁 #claireobscure #expedition33 #verso #gustave

She's startled upon returning home. She's sure left the cup in the kitchen, not the living room. Was this some sort of weird #prank? But she's living alone. The sound of something scratching on wood wakes her. It's coming from the wardrobe. But nothing's in there & she doesn't have a cat. #vss365

It was just a box. A very plain one, carved from dark wood. Cherry maybe? The surface was scratched and worn around the lid, showing its age and countless attempts to pry it open. Using brute force only banged it up further, but it wouldn't yield its content. If it had any at all. #FromOneLine 384

All of the birds have fallen eerily silent, hiding in the trees and bushes. Everybody springs into action with hurried precision. Checking doors and window shutters, offering shelter to those who won't make it home in time. A low #hum fills the air. They come when the west wind blows. #vss365

A giant #sapphire is buried beneath the #elm. Or did it grow above it? Nobody knows. Just like nobody knows if it is still there. Or ever was. There is one thing we do know though. The trees positioned around it are its guardians, their skeletal branches stopping everyone getting too close. #vss365

#vss365 As you look out the bus’s window, you see a flock of birds. “It’s a host of #sparrows,” the lady across from you answers. “They are psychopomps, escorts for the newly dead.” You grimace at the thought. “It’s not so bad. But then you don’t remember getting on this bus, do you?” she smiles.

I used to see them everywhere. Fluttering on the pavement, hopping along benches. Always carrying an air of mischief with them. And then I grew up, got a job, became responsible for myself. I think that is when they left. I want to go where they went. But where have the #sparrows gone? #vss365

Looking back, it was #happenstance; the way you stumbled into the café seeking shelter from the downpouring rain. How you sheepishly approached my table, the only one with an empty seat to spare. How I forgot how to breathe for a moment when I looked into your warm and gentle eyes. #vss365

I stumble towards you, my legs giving out from underneath me. Panicked, you run towards me and catch me before my broken body can hit the ground. #Crimson stains my clothes and tears well up in my eyes, accompanied by a weak smile. #Together until the end. If only we had more time left. #vss365

When the #tear ripped the sky apart, we all cowered in fear. Everyone believed the end of the world was here. But you took my hand and made it all okay. Bearable even. Luring me in. I like to think I saw regret in your #violet eyes when you eventually turned your back on me. #vss365 #solavellan

You hold me close in a tight embrace. I have to leave you, to face whatever danger fate throws into my path. Again. I try my best to hide the fear trying to take a hold of me. Again. When we finally part, a #promise hangs in the air. I will come back and never leave you ever again. #vss365

Luckiest unluckiest that I am To hear the words I love you, everyday Is a beautiful thing Tragic, I can’t keep them So like caged fireflies Set free into the night I let them slowly, disappear #poetry

Three copper pennies. That's all I have left. It's barely enough to buy me food. Or to live from at all. Apparently there are #spiritual guides, who can help. For a price of course. Maybe they can show me my #purpose. If not... Well. Desperate people do desperate things. #FromOneLine 382 #vss365

The dim candlelight is reflected in the mirror on the wall and the glass left on the table. A thin layer of dust coats every surface. She hasn't been here for some time and it doesn't seem like she'll return. But why did she leave her #onyx dagger behind? And how are the candles still lit? #vss365

My text for today's #vss365 prompt #wisteria turned out a bit too long for the character limit. 😬 Since I didn't feel like cutting it to size I added it as a picture instead. 😙

I lost my #innocence when I was thrust into events outside of my control & took up the mantel of the saviour. I lost my innocence when I had to give out orders deciding who had to die, so others could live. I lost my innocence to save that of others. And I pray it was enough. #vss365 #dainquisition

What if my Inquisitor went off the rails after being betrayed by Solas and losing Cullen in the aftermath in some AU? 🤔 Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned after all, so he should better start running. 😬 #dragonage #dragonageinquisition #dragonagefanart #inquisitor #trevelyan

My bag has many pockets. I'm storing words there. Words which have been left unsaid for one reason or another. So many are being bitten back, swallowed, forgotten. I pick them up. I give them shelter. And when the time is right, I say them. Whisper them. Shout them. #FromOneLine 378

Do you like what you see? ✨ Dorian is finished! I love this sassy necromancer so much, as well as how this artwork turned out. 🧡 Anatomy is still hard, hands are from hell, but the ref from @theposearchives.bsky.social helped a lot. #DragonAge #DragonAgeArt #DragonAgeInquisition #DorianPavus

There are cracks in reality. #Liminal spaces in the there and then, dreaming and waking, do or don't. Be careful if you look at them. Stare into them. Get too close. You don't know what will gaze back, reach out and pull you in. #vss365

Working in neon gradients is my favourite thing currently and I think Dorian would highly appreciate being depicted in glamorous gold tones. 😌 I love how his hair and mustache turned out, seems like I'm successfully refining my technique. 🧡 #digitalart #dragonage #dragonageinquisition #dorianpavus

While I am practicing my anatomy skills, I revised some facial feature fundamentals for a change today. I need to take a closer look at ears again. xD But I really love the nose, they’re a lot of fun to draw. 💜 Also, working in neon gradients makes studying so much better. #digitalart #fundamentals

The string snapped. Wide-eyed she stared up at the end still dangling from the ceiling above her head, almost taunting her. She tried to grab it and turn on the dim light to no avail. Something moved in the darkness below, she was sure of it. Something evil and #primordial. #fromoneline 377 #vss365

The canvas hangs in ribbons from its wooden frame, the portrait painted on it #slashed beyond recognition. Just like he doesn't recognise himself anymore after everything he's been through. After all he had to endure. This is what's left of the man he used to be. A mutilated memory. #vss365 #self

I #scrape off the the already chipping paint from the antique wooden desk. As I remove the layers, I discover marks on the surface, scratched in there decades ago. Crudely scored names. Symbols left by bored students. A heart encasing two intitials, telling of long forgotten love. #vss365

The wind whispering in the leaves #seldom makes for a good #guide. It is capricious in nature and likes to change the directions it gives. The right song can appease it, though finding it is tricky and singing the wrong one can have unforeseen consequences. #2WordPrompt

You leave invisible marks on my #skin, which I trail along with my fingers when you're away. So I don't forget the feeling of your hands and lips on my body until you return to me. #vss365

Between the ashes lies a #small, scorched scrap of paper. #Someone has scrawled a #single word on it with a shaky hand: Someday. #vss365
