"Maybe the treasures were the friends we made along the way?"

Frans may disagree lol

Anyways! I decided to draw my four main #dnd characters. From left to right: Aunae Dorrot, Frans Olo, Boulder Smash, and Noteless the Wizard. I love them all so much! <3

I have enjoyed writing with @pugatron.bsky.social over the years and I also have a hobbit of formatting and printing our various tales/rps. ☺️ As such, I decided to print our completed Act 1 from our #bg3 rp. It came out absolutely stunning, massive, and it is illustrated. ❤️

Digital painting by CaptainButterBuns of their original character Frans Olo in blues and reds. Shows him looking up with a red devil hand gripping his face. He has a scared, sad expression woth tears and blood dripping down his chin.

Emotions and the world is a lot right now, so I channeled some of my anxiety into a quick drawing of my boy Frans because giving him my pain is therapy. 🥲

Never touching but never far
Oh, at the break of day
A summer's ray
A moonlit night that casts away
Their love remains, their love remains"

BG3 Act 1- A New Adventure Chapter 25 - An Unexpected Interruption “Allow me…To drink from your lips forever,” Gale said in a muffled voice. "Forever?" Frans panted between kisses, all nerves melting away with the heat of the moment. "No," Frans's breath was hot as he spoke low. "Eternity is far too short." He was getting lost in the moment, waxing lyrical with his skilled tongue, poetic in nature instead of deceiving. "Time itself will not quench the fires of our souls." Another kiss stoked the flames between them. "The sun and moon rise and fall, so will we, our passion starting anew with each day." Frans didn't know what spirit had overtaken him, but he was going with it, resembling more of the bard he wished to be than the rogue he actually was. "The hells and heavens cannot come between. Gods be damned." Features Gale x Frans Olo, Astarion x Aku, Halsin x Wyll x Karlach & Others <3 Now up on archive of our own

BG3 Act 1- A New Adventure Chapter 23 - The Underdark The Party plunges fearlessly into the abyss… straight into the heart of the Underdark, where they’re confronted with far more than they ever bargained for. Thankfully, they have an experienced drow guiding their way—someone who knows this darkness better than anyone. Right? Jevan might be mighty in strength and resilience, but when it comes to social finesse, he’s noticeably lacking, and it's not sitting right with the others.
