I mean, it's really them!

Thinking about IWTV, as I often do, and I think for me Lestat is Claudia's mother, in a sense. There is a real toxic mother/daughter vibe to their relationship - both of them being jealous of each other over Louis' affection, how Louis begs Lestat to make Claudia a vampire - kind of analogous to a man pressuring his wife into having a child when she's the one who's got to actually go through the pregnancy. The fact they piss each other off in part because they're so similar - they dislike their own reflection in each other. But Lestat does love her, so deeply, but by the time he can actually get past all of that petty bullshit, it's too little, too late.

Redrawing this. It was the second ever Stormlight scene I drew, from one listening on the audiobook, and I didn't much like it even before I got the kindle version and realised how far off my depiction was. So now, have a sufficiently wet and miserable Kaladin. And a very cute Syl.

If you think about it…. the acronym KYS isn’t saying “kill yourself,” it’s saying Kill Your Self. Three words. As in, kill the concept of the “Self” - your consciousness’s perception that it is an individual, that it has one meaningful isolated identity that is “you,” that it is not but a droplet in the grand ocean of interconnected souls of all living beings in this universe. I think this is beautiful. Embrace ego death and become one with everything. Everyone should KYS

Henry of Skalitz || Kingdom Come Deliverance II

Wanted to paint my current playthrough Henry, early on in the game, very humble lad just trying to survive 💛

Spent all his money on a haircut but it looks like it just grew out from being on the road 😂
