Title: A Scholarly Debate
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Cædmon ♂, Drost ♂
Rating: T" src="https://penbrydd.groundline.net/wp-content/luxintenebris/rating/PG13.jpg" width="32px" /> (L0 N0 S0 V2 D0)
Warnings: A whole lot of facepunching.
Notes: So, you know me and academia. *snrk* I know I've introduced these two before, but I'll do it again. Cædmon is a scholar, above all things, but he's very much an outdoor sort of scholar. A student of the wild, an archaeologist, an anthropologist, and a shaman. He's one of a coterie of nerds from the lesser houses of Summer, who's managed to stumble into a spot as one of the court historians. Drost, of course, is essentially his Winter counterpart. More an indoor wizard, than an outdoor shaman, Drost tends heavily toward book-learning. Languages, written histories, art history, and architecture are his preferred fields. Needless to say, their fields overlap. And there is usually a war on. But, scholars have never needed politics for times like these — just egos.

Title: Living Dolls
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Emmett ♂, Artemisia ♀
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: There's a lot of skin.
Notes: He's a bronze-boned, steam-powered android, given life by the Hebrew word etched in his forehead, underneath his worn artificial skin. She's a golem, raised in plague-ridden Venice, from the blood of seven camels, magic, and spare parts. Why I've never gotten my golems in the same image, until now, just escapes me. Anyway, boxed dolls on the window shelf coming to life while no-one's looking. Why? Because once I saw it, I couldn't make it go away.

Title: Martian Ballroom
Fandom: Star Trek(ish)
Characters: An Andorian ♀, an Orion ♀
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A low-cut dress
Notes: Nnnnope. Not explaining this one, except to say it's a wide shot because it's a little more about the set than the people in it.

Title: Because It's There
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost ♂
Rating: M (L0 N3 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Frost hates clothes and likes poledancing.
Notes: Just doing some experiments in upside-down hair and lighting the interior of a gazebo. Faces are really difficult to get right, when they're inverted. Expressions just go all to hell. But, I think I managed to accomplish great things with that hair. The title is… well, the answer to 'Why would you—?'

Title: Antler Envy
Fandom: N/A
Characters:
Barbarian
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless dude with a large axe
Notes: I don't even remember. Barbie said something about antlers, and then I took a painkiller for my shoulder, and then I woke up a whooooole lot of hours later, and this had happened. Beats me, man.

Title: The Ban Dragon
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Glitter ♂
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: So, maybe that's a little too jade, but I liked him in jade! Ladies and gentlemen,
Glitter: the banninator, Master of the Banhammer, he who bans first and asks questions later.

Title: Pints For All!
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost ♂
Rating:Â G- (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Implied beer. Frost in drag. The usual.
Notes: So, it's a holiday. A drinking holiday. And it's that drinking holiday for which I've got quite a tradition of posting images of Frost in all his fabulous goodness. So, you know, the usual. *grins*

Title: Dragon Gossip
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost, a small dragon
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless dude
Notes: I dunno. Just got this into my head, and then it happened. Frost standing on the bridge, gazing out across whatever the hell is over there, when he hears the wings behind him and half-turns to catch the dragon on his arm. "What did she say?" "Well, you know what Moira's like… And then Sheila had to get involved…" The look on that dragon's face. You know that's what's going on here.

Title: The Weapon of the Wood
Fandom: (Non-canon) Magelight
Characters: Frego ♂, Mocker â™…
Rating: M (L0 N3 S3 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shapeshifting, gender-swapping, slave trading
Notes: For
Sargantas. This was supremely strange to write. It needs dialogue, but I don't know one of the characters well enough to write dialogue for him, so the dialogue is all suggested rather than explicitly spoken. Not really sure how I feel about that. It's also confusing as hell, and that's semi-intentional. Mocker changes forms faster than people change their socks, and he's always called by the face he's wearing. Sometimes he's the Marquess of Renshaw, sometimes he's a friar, a foreign spirit, a jaguar… If you're not sure who that is, it's probably Mocker. This is a pretty serious break, stylistically, from anything I've written, before, and I don't know how well it works, but I do know it's the only way I could manage to tell this particular story.

Title: Boots First
Fandom: Viridian Legacy
Characters: Betty ♀, Arkady ♂
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless dude. Bad lighting.
Notes: Again with the hotels. I'm really just fucking around trying to make something work. There's some shaders I never use that I wanted to get a grip on, also, indoor lighting, which… less bad, but still pretty terrible. Anyway, the conversation going on here is, for some reason, 'Boots first, then corset'. (Which I'm sure we all had, at some point.)
