#datwolfmonraz

Of course @den-of-trolls had to start this while I was busy studying for finals, so now I’m late to this, but... Eh, let’s be honest, it’s never to late to spread some love! Even though Xah’jo is kinda making me uncomfortable right there... “What’s de matter, doll~? I be just spreadin’ some love like ya said...~” You’re weird, Xah’jo!

I’ve been tagged D: Oh noes. I’m terrible at drawing hands but I will try! I WILL DO MY BEST FOR MY SENPAI.

Ugh, I really need to start a better organizing system. 

This week’s sketch theme? OTPs Been experimenting with these new inking pens I got, and of course my biro sketches look better >:T Ahwell.

Kai belongs to @mori-sketchbook Ryuu + Rikotsu belongs to @serbaki Zari’yen belongs to @flynneware Bru + Trobu belongs to @datwolfmonraz

Moki + Jaz

“Ey ey Bru lookie lookie!”

Jazali bounced up and clapped her hands together with a shout of victory. The orc beside her shook his head before holding up the map “I’m pretty sure we’re in a completely wrong area.”

“We are.” Moki huffed, but the old tauren put down his bags as he stretched up his arms with a groan “But it’s already nighttime so we might as well set up camp. It doesn’t look like Jaz is going to be focused for much longer anyways.”

Brugran followed Moki’s pointing finger and deadpanned as she hopped around the lake trying to catch more fireflies in her hand, but ultimately kept failing. But she continued to try with glee. The blonde orc shook his head again and let out a tired groan as he sat beside the lake and set down his things.

“WUA-GODDAMIT JAZ!” He shouted when the little troll tripped and rolled right into him, making him glare and shover her off. Jaz was too hyper to bother fighting back as she rolled away again snickering.

“Jaz. Play nice.” Moki smirked from his spot under the willow tree as he already started lighting up his pipe. He calmly pulled away a few strands of dreads from his face as he admired the serene environment around them.

“Where ju t’ink dey come from anyways? Dey so pretty!” Jazali gasped as she sat up next to Brugran and stared at the fireflies flitting about them and above the lake. Bru shrugged but stared up at the insects too...he wasn’t as passionately trying to poke at them like Jaz though.

Moki hummed from behind them “You know, there is a legend about fireflies from one of the tribes I’ve visited a long time ago -” Jaz and Bru turned their heads curiously to listen “- Apparently fireflies are the spirits that remain behind after death to watch over those whom they loved the most when they were alive.”

Jazali “ooh”-ed and leaned over the water with wide eyes as she stared at how prettily the bugs’ lights reflected off the water to make it look like starlight.

Moki continued quietly, as if afraid to shatter the moment “When they amass over water, it is said they are welcoming those who mourn for the departed.”

“Interesting…” Brugran grunted as he also admired the scenery around them, leaning back on his hands as he stared around.

“So...dese bugs ken be Jaz family?” The little troll blinked at Moki, who simply shrugged and replied “They can be anybody’s I suppose, I never asked for specifications…”

Jazali gasped and pointed at a bug “So dat one ken like...be Moki family? Or like Bru’s orc family?”

“Why’s my family the ‘orc family’...” The salty blondie muttered with a exasperated gaze at Jaz, but Moki simply chuckled and shrugged.

The little troll followed after the bug as it flitted over the water...wait...didn’t Moki say that meant it was welcoming them? That must mean it recognized that it was Bru’s family! Jazali clapped her hands together again, jolting Brugran who glanced her way as she bowed in a troll-ish praying gesture before shouting at the bug “Yo! If ya be Bru pa or ma or grandpa, t’anks fo’ da salty orcs ya brought up, he be super cool!”

Jazali gave a happy thumbsup as Moki barked out a laugh at how silly she looked in a wide stance giving a big thumbsup to an insect that was long gone.
