Title: Class Distinctions
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Durand ♂, Frost ♂
Rating: Rating: R (L0 N3 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Nude dudes
Notes: So, I ended up sticking with the title this had in my working folder, which looks a little weird, but I just had this moment, looking at Durand and Frost, together, and comparing to popular depictions of labourers and aristocrats of the last few centuries. Durand, the stonemason, who is burly, tanned, hairy, and scarred (though I think he's facing the wrong way for the enormous scar on his face to show) beside Frost, fae playboy of one of the royal houses, who is lithe, pale, almost hairless, and unmarked. I have no idea why this time, that's what stood out, but it did.

Title: Tamiel & Galharda
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Tamiel ♂, Galharda♀
Rating:Rating: <span style=T" src="https://penbrydd.groundline.net/wp-content/luxintenebris/rating/PG13.jpg" width="32px" /> (L0 N2 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A demoness with half a shirt, showing a lot of leg.
Notes: So, this is one of those things that goes a little better if you've got context. There is a demon/fallen angel called Verrier, who is "Prince of Principalities, and tempts men against the vow of obedience, and makes the neck stiff and hard as iron, and incapable to stoop under the yoke of obedience." (Hell's Hierarchy, 1612) In constructing Magelight, we built Verrier's family as imperial anarchists — they'll help you overthrow, as long as you keep overthrowing what they want you to, and don't turn against them. They spread their empire of rioters to wherever they can find an unstable situation to exploit. Revolution? The House of Verrier was there. More on these two below the cut.

Because It's There

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: Pints For All!
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost ♂
Rating:  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.

The Weapon of the Wood

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 y!GallerySargantas. 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: The Weapon of the Wood (Prologue)
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Mocker ♂, Noctis ♂, Artemesia ♀
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V0 D1)
Warnings: Foul language, dark deeds, and gin.
Notes: The Unspoken, who numbered several tens, at the start of the War of Dominion, which lasted close to seven hundred years, were nearly obliterated during the war. Five worth speaking of survived it, and one of them died a hundred years later. Two were divided over her death, and one of those two has just discovered another of their number, presumed dead for centuries, may yet live. This is not actually the commission! This is the prologue to the commission, which I had to write, in order to screw my head on to do the commission. Consider it an introduction to some of the background, if you haven't read enough Magelight to know Mocker, his troubles, and his bizarre sense of humour.

Title: We Fight for No Kingdom
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost ♂, Solaris ♀
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Flaming swords?
Notes: Frost and Solaris — Winter and Summer, Ashes and Apples — at war for themselves. I think I have finally managed to texture that staff in a completely unreasonably awesome fashion. If they don't seem to have facial expressions, you're looking at it in a size that's not appropriate for your resolution.

Title: In Case of Emergency…
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frost ♂
Rating: M (L0 N3 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: It's Frost. Did you expect clothes?
Notes: In Case of Emergency Break Glass. *coughs* I'm way too tired to come up with something that makes more sense than this. Take it on faith that it does make sense. Frost's birthday was yesterday, and this would have been quicker but… glass and I still have disagreements.
