digital comic. sylvan, a horned man with pointed ears and a long braid, has his back facing the viewer. he says "what would you know? leave me be." aster, a large dragon, tilts his head at sylvan. he says "I do have the memories of your mortal lover. Not all of them, of course... But I can give them to you. Should you want them." sylvan is enraged and turns to face aster. "Is that what you were doing? Why you kept leaving your stench in our home?"

aster, confused, says "ours?". sylvan continues to shout at him, "You were stealing his memories!? Like you took hers? He was nobody to you! What for!?" there's a full shot of sylvan with clawed hands at the ready, saying "waiting until he died so you could use them against me?" Aster raises a hand up and says "No, that's not--"

The top half of the page is a close shot of sylvan, now in a beast-like form, attacking aster. sylvan shouts, "YOU COULDN'T LET ME HAVE ONE THING TO MYSELF!" sylvan is knocked to the ground, and aster appears saddened.

sylvan lays crumped on the ground and says, "why couldn't you have let him be?" he pushes himself up and looks over his shoulder, saying "he was the one thing that was mine alone. aster has his head down in shame. he says, "Sylvan... You must see that I'm trying to he--" sylvan roars at aster, partially obscuring the previous panel. he says "GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!"

an offer of peace between brothers.

a relationship chart featuring three characters: sylvia, a human girl with long hair; aster firstborn, a scaly dragon with long ears and horns; and sylvan secondborn, a man with braided hair, horns, and long ears. aster and sylvan are both "living stars". SYLVIA: died young of illness on a distant planet. shared aster's love and fascination for mortal life and magic. wanted to travel the universe with him. ASTER: with no answers about his origin, he latched onto human folklore about stars being the souls of the dead. spent a very long time searching for sylvia. SYLVAN: did not fulfill the conditions to attain life and would have died as a star. still mad about it. rejects personhood and the value of mortal life. terrorizes them partly out of spite and partly out of boredom. (there's a little trans flag drawn next to him.) Sylvia and Aster: To Sylvia, Aster is a dear friend, and she named him. To Aster, Sylvia is his first and dearest friend, a kindred spirit, and his one true companion. their relationship is characterized by his insurmountable grief at her death. Aster and Sylvan: to Sylvan, Aster is a brother, father and jailer all at once. it despises him. to Aster, Sylvan is a brother, one that he regrets awakening but doesn't have the nerve to kill. their relationship is characterized by the endless cycle in which they continue to hurt each other. Sylvan and Sylvia: Sylvan was raised in Sylvia's image. They've never met, but he knows her through her memories. He hates her both as a person and as a concept. ironically, she would have liked him.

the definitive chart of what the hell is wrong with aster and sylvan and that girl that's been dead for a million billion years!

comic with pencil on paper. calem returns home from an outing and goes up the stairs, walking past books and his and sylvan's guild tags. he finds a cat on his bed and smiles fondly.

calem scratches the cat's head and says "when did you get back home..?" as he starts to undress himself, the cat stretches. when he takes his shirt off, the cat is now sylvan, laying on the bed in a humanoid form. calem sits down beside sylvan, who collapses dramatically in his arms. calem grins happily.

screenshot of a file folder with a bunch of images drawn in paint, styled as chapter headings. in order: a close up of a sylvan's eye with star freckles; a smooth stone with complex carvings and some pocket lint; a shot of aster's torso, cut off at the head as he gestures to himself; a close-up of grace's face, her wide eyes looking at the viewer; a bridge over a ravine; an adventurer's tag with a knife and coins; the throne room; a map unrolled over a table; an annular brooch with a moon and star motif; a campfire with cups around it; a stamped document on a table; a beast with a human-like face; two hands pointing upwards; a feather in the grass; a view of a port town from a hill; a hand reaching out to another; a cat on a windowsill; a ferret in a man's cloak; part of a forest nymph's head, focusing on her flowery hair.

the only thing i miss about using windows 11 (it was for a job i had years ago) is having layers in paint. i was gonna make images for every chapter

so bsky’s morel.us-east and oyster.us-east PDS are down and unfortunately my main is on the latter so my only way to engage with this website is to get on alt. awesome!

drawing of my four ocs. a tall demon man with short horns (ennos), a petite human girl with short hair (grace), and a satyr woman with curved horns and bushy hair (veera) look at the viewer in various states of confusion. they're all thinking "that doesn't look right but I don't know enough about elves to say for sure". beside them is a human man with crossed arms and a self-satisfied smirk (calem). he's captioned as "guy who knows enough about elves", but he's just thinking about banging the alleged elf instead.

only guy qualified to point out that something is wrong is a little distracted 👎👎👎

i keep having my couples meet in the woods... anyways calem's role is always to clock sylvan as quickly as possible

[ #secondborn #art #oc #comic ]

two panel comic with pen on paper. calem has a stern look and says "Someone who loves you won't force you to be something you're not." sylvan, wearing sylvia's face, looks back in distress and says "But he doesn't love me!"

my terrible AU that i will be posting with very little context and also out of order so it won't make sense yet

[ #secondborn #art #oc #comic ]

digital comic in two halves, depicting two scenes in sylvan's life. at the top is a black box, reading "I KNEW IT". the first panels are calem sitting on a bench, rubbing his temples in frustration; and aster, looking angrily at the viewer. they both say, "You don't understand a thing." their speech bubbles overlap across their panels. on the left is a close-up of calem's eye looking at the viewer (sylvan), captioned "why would you? you can't stand to be around mortals." the next panel is sylvan, sitting in silence and looking back at calem. calem shrugs and says "don't look at me like that. you already said it yourself." on the right is a close up of aster's eye, captioned "you haven't changed one bit". in the next panel, sylvan looks up, facing aster with open arms, and shouts "teach me, then!" the final panel is a shot of aster's torso as he floats with crossed arms and says "it would be a waste of my breath."

there was something familiar in the way he said it.

scan of two drawings on cardboard. on the left is my wol misha, blushing and looking forlorn, thinking "he has no idea how much i want him..." on the right is thancred, looking in misha's direction with a nervous smile, thinking "by the twelve... this guy WANTS me!" the drawings are kind of positioned in a way that matches their height difference.

foundational mishacred image from before i started taking them seriously

[ #ffxiv #art #wolcred ]

drawing of sylvan in dramatic lighting, holding a hand out with blood dripping from his palm. the left half of his body is covered in shadow, where he has a horn and a furred ear. the lit parts of his face have regular elven features. the glowing marks on his neck and wrist are fully uncovered

made a quick cover concept for the book a while ago to use on the nanowrimo website and my word trackers

[ #secondborn #art #oc ]

drawing of the artist's OCs, sylvan and aster, over a burning backdrop. sylvan is a dark-skinned humanoid with pointed ears and long, vivid blue hair. aster is a large dragon with golden horns and scales in various shades of deep blue and purple, meant to resemble the night sky. aster holds sylvan from behind, pulling it back by one arm and holding his hand over sylvan's face. sylvan struggles and tries to pull aster's hand away, revealing glowing four-pointed stars marked around around its wrists like shackles.

drawing of two creatures. aster, a bulky dragon, sits with his back facing the viewer and looks fondly over his shoulder. at his back sits sylvan, a lanky furred beast with multiple pairs of legs and eyes. sylvan rolls on his back playfully and reaches for aster, his tongue hanging out of his mouth.

[ #ffxiv #art #ascowols ]

drawing of the artist's OCs, sylvan and sylvia. sylvan is a dark-skinned beastman with blue hair tied in a long braid and fur up to his elbows. sylvia is a fair-skinned human girl with vibrant red and wavy hair. sylvan holds sylvia from behind, holding a knife to her throat as her hair envelops them both. although sylvan's expression is angry, sylvia smiles oblivious, as if she doesn't recognize the threat at all. there's a halo behind her head.

i've tarnished the memory of your precious mortal pet.

[ #secondborn #art #oc ]

two drawings of sylvan. in the first one, he's in a horned beastman form with a long braid thrown over his shoulder. he's smirking arrogantly and says "but you do miss her, don't you, brother?" in the second drawing, he's now a human girl with long hair and big eyes. he says "that's why you gave me her name."

three drawings of sylvan. in the first one, he's a blue haired humanoid with pointed ears and long fangs, kind of like a half-orc i guess. he says "really...? you're so obvious." in the second one, he's a human girl with long red hair. he looks at the viewer with a pained smile and says "this is what you want. isn't it?" in the third one, he's in a horned beastman shape with a long braid over his shoulder. he looks away from the viewer and says "i'm not her. get it in your head already, old man."

things changed so much between sylvan's initial conception and me fleshing him out more a year or so later lol. it's almost funny looking back #secondborn #art

drawings of sylvan and calem sitting in the grass together. sylvan is a long-haired beastman with furred ears and limbs. there are four-pointed stars wrapped around his neck, wrists and ankles. calem is a human with short hair. sylvan looks away from calem, while calem rests his chin on sylvan's shoulder. there's a chibi drawing of them both in the top right corner.
