The beautiful Cecilia, as rendered by Katie Hillman!

The adorable Arkady as rendered by Katie Hillman! (Her title for this picture on DeviantArt was “Et in Arcadia ego,” which is just so perfect that I am contractually obligated to love her forever.)

The beautiful Rosalind as rendered by the lovely Katie Hillman!

Arkady Luzhin is a super cute person from my Silver Key story. He is a rare-books and archives librarian and is much older than he looks. He is highly educated and extremely intelligent but very emotional and prone to having his feelings hurt. He can speak five languages fluently (Russian, French, German, English and Japanese) and can read and write Ancient Greek and Latin.

This is Jeremy Myers, who is stuck being the "normal" one in the middle of all the strange people in my Silver Key story. He is a medical research scientist and assistant/partner to Christophe at work and romantically as well. He is practical and can seem mean or cold, but is actually very nice once you get to know him. He can speak French and English equally well.

This is Michael Slaiby who is so stupendously beautiful, yay. He is from my Silver Key story. He is an intelligent, stoic and kind young man who can speak three languages fluently (English, Russian and French) and plays the violin.

This is Christophe Feuilly-LaMarche! He is from my Silver Key story. He is a medical researcher and he's older than he looks. He has lived in the U.S. for about 80 years and still can't really speak English, so interested parties should learn some French. :) He thinks he's charming, and he is -- but not for the reason he thinks he is :)

NickRoblesArt is the same person as blacksirensolo and he is wonderful! This is Cecilia Underdown from my Silver Key story. She is kind-hearted, deeply religious and a good musician.

This tumblr will be for me to reblog and aggregate all the commissions people do of my characters, because I want to. :)
