Arkillian's Art Thread

[tessspoon]

Well, not sound files, just text. But anyway:

[spoiler]GRAHAM: I know it is somehow imprudent, but... can you tell me about Alexander? I'm talking about the way he is, as a man, as a husband, as a king.
CASSIMA: I sometimes forget you probably know him less than I do. It's such a shame, really, that he didn't get to grow up with his family.
GRAHAM: I'm sure he wouldn't be the man he is now.
CASSIMA: Every cloud has a silver lining. Isn't that what they say?
GRAHAM: Yes, Cassima. My point exactly.
CASSIMA: Still, maybe not all is that good...
GRAHAM: What do you mean?
CASSIMA: Alexander has issues. Things he won't trust anybody with.
GRAHAM: That's understandable. He grew up as a slave.
CASSIMA: He doesn't talk too much. He's a good king, but when it comes to personal issues, he won't talk about them. It frustrates me at times, because I want to help him through it, but I can't.
GRAHAM: Perhaps you should try to be a little more understanding of what he's been through.
CASSIMA: No, don't get me wrong. I understand very well. I know what it is like being dragged away from your family and forced to become someone else's slave. I still wake up at night, sweating... scared... and it was just a couple of years. I can't begin to imagine how it was for him... a whole life... You know, your majesty... I love your son so much...
GRAHAM: I know you do, my child, I know you do.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler]
GRAHAM: What does he like to do?
CASSIMA: He enjoys his time by my side, but sometimes, he just likes to be on his own.
GRAHAM: You can't blame him. He's not used to being around people.
CASSIMA: He's gotten better. The first weeks, I'd be lucky if he stayed in a town meeting for more than an hour. Now, he even enjoys the company of others. But still, there's a dark shadow, almost like a living pain surfacing in his eyes.
GRAHAM: All you can do is be by his side.
CASSIMA: That's what I do. He's learned to come to me, and I'll keep silent while he cries on my shoulder, like a scared child.
GRAHAM: He must have terrible demons inside.
CASSIMA: It's really heartbreaking. He just holds me tight, as if not wanting to let go (Cassima voice breaks).

I wonder what they talk about then...

You mean you don't already know?! The sexy fanart that comes out about Alexander, and how jealous Cassima gets!

"If only I were a gamer so I could see it too! Wait- I have the real thing in bed with me..."

I bet she'd still want to see the sexy fanart still though Lol. I often wonder what characters would think of artists / writers if they really knew that they were just our puppets. I reckon half of my OCs would want to cause me bodily harm, and the other half would worship me like their Saviour... No wait. More like most would want to hurt me >.> I just remembered that even my not mentally damaged characters still have issues to pine about...  ^^; My character Alex (by no means related to Alexander) is reasonably sane, but was the lucky one to find out that if he makes love to the woman he loves, it'll kill her. He'd likely not like me for that...


GAH! SPOILERZ!!! NOOO!!! NOT READING LALALALALALALALALA I can't even quote it!

If Alexander were MY hubby, I'd want to see all the pictures of him that I could!  Heck, I ALWAYS wanna see every picture of him that I can!

GAAAAAAAAAAH!  Thanks, Tess!

Hmmm, most interesting stuff.  I love Alexander.

Word. This world needs more Alexander. Period.

Dare I say this, but perhaps I could accept prompts? ^^; I'll see if I can draw them. No guaranties but if I need something to draw...

[Enchantermon]

You know, I never realized that Alexander and Cassima have that whole "stolen and forced into slavery" thing in common. I wonder if that was why the two felt such a strong connection between them.

Could be. I Prefer to think it's true love  Hang on though- there's alot of kidnapping and slavery in King's Quest! Whaddup?!

[tessspoon]

GAH! SPOILERZ!!! NOOO!!! NOT READING LALALALALALALALALA I can't even quote it! 

Ack, sorry, I got excited and keep forgetting you don't like the spoilers, and now they're in your thread...

GAAAAAAAAAAH!  Thanks, Tess!

Don't know why I didn't think to send that to you sooner...

[Arkillian]

It's ok. Normally I'm cool with spoilers, but this game is so plot driven that it's a little like reading the ending before the middle. If it were screen caps, I'd be fine with it

[Haids1987]

Don't know why I didn't think to send that to you sooner...

'Cause you were trying to keep every bit of Alexander to yourself, you brat!  Don't deny it!

You should do a romantic Alex and Cassima portrait...maybe him holding her, or her consoling him after a nightmare.  Ooooh, I'm swooning just thinking about it...

[Enchantermon]

Could be. I Prefer to think it's true love

Well, yeah, but before love can form you have to have a connection, and that could have been part of it.

Hmmmm... I could give it a go. There's always the canon picture that I'd be mentally competing with though



I'll want it to be on par with that. That'll be a challenge T.T

Or love at first sight. Sadly, it seems most of the royal family seem to have fallen in love like that

[Enchantermon]

Yeah. I don't really mind love at first sight in fantasy stuff though because, well, it's fantasy. Anything can happen.

I'd like it better if it meant something more, like Graham's love at first sight was a little too epic to be believable, but as you said, it's fantasy. To me though, love at first sight applies to people that have MET the person they've fallen for. I guess though that the magic mirror works in mysterious ways

[Haids1987]

Hmmmm... I could give it a go. There's always the canon picture that I'd be mentally competing with though

Yours would rock, though, because it would be an Arkillian original.   Plus they could wear different clothes (or pajamas, whatev ) and they wouldn't have to be kissing.  I'd be excited to see what it would look like!

[Arkillian]

Don't tempt me- I'd put Cassima in lingerie and Alexander in a thong

Lol- no really, I'll put them in whatever I think suited the picture the best, but it may be something more sexy than PJs- do people want to see that? Or would people rather see more PG13 stuff?

[Haids1987]

Ooooh honey, I'd be all over whatever you think works.  The more Alexander the better!

(And more Cassima, too.  She was always my favorite girl in the series!)

[Arkillian]

HAHAHAHAH Omg... I think you just opened pandora's box *snorts* I'll try not to be too naughty Apparently I'm quite tasteful with alot of my art. I have a picture which has one of my OCs holding a bare breast, but in the context of the picture it comes across as more romantic than dirty.

[Haids1987]

Go nuts, lady.  I give you full permission.   Besides, like you said, your art is tasteful.  It's not like I need to show my ID when I look at it, it's all so beautiful and, as you say, romantic. 

Have at it! 

[Arkillian]

Thank you hon ^^ It's nice to know that there are others that support my vision It's difficult to find inspiration to draw when you think that others will disapprove. That stopped me from drawing for a whole year that fear. It's something that all artists go through a bazillion times in their career though >.>

[Haids1987]

Oh my gosh, you poor thing!  I hope that you NEVER go through another dry spell like that again!  Your work is too amazing to not be created and shared with the world!
