Title: Proclaiming the Glory of Man
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Nico
Rating: G-  (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless dude. Bad lighting.
Notes: Still working on a certain someone's birthday gift. Knocked this out in a couple of hours, to ease the frustration. Nico tends to emphasize personal and community responsibility, over divine intervention. Divine intervention's great when the total population's a couple hundred million, but a little less viable when you get up into the billions. So, here's our hero running his mouth in the courtyard of a church, in natural light and heavenly glow versions. ("Gabriel… Gabi, what the hell is this glowing shit? Go tell dad to knock it off, will you?")

Title: Contentious Intentions
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Nico ♂, Lucian ♂
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S1 V1 D0)
Warnings: Oblique references to smut, shin-kicking, teh gay, expletives
Notes: Lucian really is the typical asshole older brother. One might even say that older brothers are all in some way based on Lucian, since he's older than everything but the Greater Lords. The prototypical older brother.

Title: Lys – Test
Fandom: N/A
Characters: F-listElysian Fields
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: Ehh, test shots for a gift. This one's going to make me crazy. I know it. Fucking fuck, Google, stop autocorrecting the contrast when I upload shit. :| I apologise for you guys not being able to see this quite the way I made it. Also it's a test, so I didn't bother to fix the weird eyelash shadows in the closeup.

Title: An Afternoon Alone
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Sorrick , Jade
Rating: G-  (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless dudes in romantic poses
Notes: For y!GalleryKeldrin. A bit of shirtless romance. It was supposed to be 'pants only', but I couldn't find thematically-valid pants that didn't need to be used with boots. So, shirtless dudes in sexy boots. *shrugs* I like how Jade's face came out. That little touch of amusement took forever to get right.

[ Master Post ]
Title: The Birth of the Sea of Salt
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Gabriel (as Labashi) ♂, Hizkiel (as Harsu) ♂, Kafziel (as Kurigalzu) ♂, Lot ♂ & his family ♀
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V1 D1)
Warnings: Objectification of angels, threats of violence, really oblique threats of rape, violent nationalist sentiment, non-explicit mass destruction
Notes: A telling of the fall of Sodom and Gomorrah, from the perspective of the angels. I apologise for the names. Lot's supposed to be Chaldean, and Chaldean names are a pain in my ass to find, but he spent enough time in the Jordan River valley that I can mangle some names for his family. And then I had the bloody stupid idea the angels should be posing as Chaldean merchants… I give up. Also, I like Lot's daughters as self-determined hellraisers, able to make their own decisions and enforce their intent. I think canon supports that. And Gabriel loathing its shell is always hilarious — so, yes, this is really substantially before the fall of Jerusalem. (~2018 BC, maybe?) And if you've got any problems with my geology or geography, keep in mind that historical fiction is still fiction. (And I'm using a trope that's been argued by biblical scholars, which doesn't make it true, but does make it sufficiently popular to base a fictional work upon.)

Title: Jet – Test
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Jet (Raven's daughter)
Rating: G-  (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A whole lot of leg.
Notes: This one didn't come out as well as Nightfall. Jet, the party-girl into intricate long cons. Twice as smart as any of her marks, and only shows a quarter of it, if anyone's looking. Why calla lilies? I don't know, but she insisted.

Title: Nightfall – Test
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Nightfall (Raven's Daughter)
Rating: G-  (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Short skirt
Notes: Raven's daughters don't have names, but they take names, usually along certain themes. This daughter can be called 'Nightfall'. She's an odd one, in her preference for the gleam of yellow metals over grey metals. She likes warm, bright colours and art festivals, cheerfully choosing her marks from those who try to exploit the artists. The daughters have a profound fondness for winning against other tricksters.
