That one Yapper

Here are my refs and Dana's rendition. There is no need to draw them in their elaborate native clothes, now that they are in Ithaca, it would make even more sense if they just wore regular/plain servant dresses .

Here are some drawing ideas that I have (obviously I don't ask you to draw them all, only choose the one that you prefer):

1) Menara whispering jokes or gossip in Nikandros' ear, both of them laughing and hella drunk.

2) Linara and Nikandros chilling, hanging out in his workshop ( I think she'd be very interested and observe his prosthetic arm in details, or any other weapon he might craft)

3) Nikandros and Linara ✨️twinning✨️. Aka, standing one next to the other, both looking in the same direction with hooded eyes and hungry / greedy stares 🫦 (someone is gonna get their cheeks clapped tonight /j-)

4) Either Xandria or Carissa *litteraly existing, not doing anything special*

-> both of my girls in the background, loosing their shit /crying dramatically / having sparkly eyes

"I could end it all for her 😭"

That's all I can think of, have fun and take care of yourself ✨️.

Hi! Thanks for the request. I draw your girls, originally it was supposed to be a warm up sketch but it became a doodle.

But anyways-

Bonus chibi Nikandros and Linara bonding. His showing her his axe.

I wanted to do a activity with you guys, yes, you, my dear moots!!

(My apologies, can't really think of ships among your own girls, so I thought I could write about which one of my girls could be crushing on yours. Hope you'd find that interesting enough).

DaLin / Linara :

The very first that comes to mind as a crush for her would be Nerea. That woman makes her laugh and doesn't take shit from anyone, she reminds her of Lysandra (and guess what she thinks of her?? 🫦). Also, just like the leopard woman, she's a talented musician (Lin' is a very big fan of that 👉👈). Finally, as a ✨️True Admirer of Beauty✨️, obviously she would also include the more unsettling, "weirdo", "scaly" aspects: her fins, irridescent scales and all those other "inhumane" traits are a delight to the eyes.

Although I'd say, in another case I could see her crushing on Rena. As I said before, they see this woman as the very most beautiful among the nymphs (that shade of red should be illegal-). And even more important than that, she has deep respect for her craftsmanship, her work as a tailor. She weeves magic through her fingers. And last but not least... she might feel a bit too serious, she might feel a bit too guarded, but in the end, DaLin feels safe around her ☺️.

Also in the end, let's be honest, she's waayyy more likely to have a soft spot for both of them. We know how this woman can get 😮‍💨-

Menkar / Menara :

Well, it may surprise you, but frankly, the one she's more likely to be weak for would be Thebe.

Thing is, regarding her tastes in girls, she had always been more attracted to women who feel older, more "mature" than her. And Lady Thebe embodies that. Someone wise, someone with elegant authority, someone cultured with whom she could discuss for hours... The same kind of longing that makes her also weak toward women like Galene or P*****pe...

It may seem like it but I swear she doesn't have mommy issues... maaaaayyyyybe "auntie issues" but that's not the same, right?? 😅

Say, @hulisita, I'd be curious to see your ladies reaction if they were to know about it.

This is a way to make the activity I told you!

.

.

.

For DaLin :

—"Oh? So do you like my scary appearance huh? That's cute.. Let's see if you can stand fangs on your skin..." (Nerea's flirting goes hard—)

—"So i'm the most beautiful woman in your eyes, Hm? I'm grateful for that, you're one of the cutest humans I have ever seen." (Rena's rizz goes hard af—)

For Menkar :

—"So do you have attraction for older women, I see... You don't know how sharp is older women's mind.. How long would you stand it, little thing?" (Thebe is trying to be creepy but accidentally turned on people-)

.

.

So if Nerea tried to flirt/intimidate her like that, she'd probably find it funny, open her mouth in a big grin and be like:

"Cool, but mine are bigger! I let you chomp if you let me chomp! 😁"

2) If Rena told her that she'd probably just blush like crazy and be at loss of words tbh.

3) "I'm the first concerned, I know very well how puny I am. Doesn't change the fact I'm still alive and thriving to this day, praised be the gods for that. I'd say I've met my fair share of sharp elegant ladies already, though it always remains a pleasant surprise, each time I come across one 😁."

(She'd say in a confident manner, while having a faint blush on her cheeks and wondering about how comfortable it would be to lay upon Lady Thebe's chest-)

I don’t know if she would wear it, but here is what I think the necklace made by DaLin for Carissa would look like:

If you look at the Iliad Folks designs , the style of the necklace is recognizable, similar to what these people use to wear (large decorated collars, close to the neck, along with some chains of colored beads hanging lower).

DaLin is a bit frustrated, it's not like her home island or her familial workshop, she doesn't have access to more "noble" or "valuable" material to work with (she would want to adorn Carissa with the prettiest jewels lowkey-).

So here the necklace is made of leather, blue/green strings and a pretty white polished stone she found on a river bank.

This is very cute. Of course, Carissa will still love the gift but I imagine she only wears it on her free time. (The heart necklace she wore is very special to her, although she doesn't mind wearing other jewelries.)

I did try a drawing of her wearing DaLin gift necklace, hope I did the necklace justice-

Nikandros: And you just drown that man in the river.

Malachi:....

Malachi: He cheated on his wife.

Malachi: I want prunes.

Nikandros: Alright Mal.

"Don't even think about it 🥱."

DaLin: *Teeth grinding, looking in Amphimedon's direction with unusual murderous eyes*

I could add that:

• Your guys are overall worthy of respect.

• They both have a.... certain vision of Malachi 😅.

• Menara can't help it, even if they are friends, she'll almost always end up at least a little bit afraid around big / burly men (that includes most guards since they are also weapons' wielding authority).

• Linara sincerely likes Haneul, but this tiny slight ugly feeling of jealousy would remain. Also the yellow question mark is because she wonders about him and would maybe like to be friends with him (she doesn't know how to approach it-).

Menara:

Yippee
