Doodles of the day! Please accept the low quality offerings for now, it's all I have energy for atm 😭
It's been a while since I sketched Lucien, I missed him.
Lower left sketch was a result of trying different ways to draw faces, mixed feelings on it. The imagery is him looking down on someone like they're an insect. I personally like the simplest style best for sketches but I should practice drawing more detailed stuff.
Trying to draw MC also brought up a lot of questions for me - mainly how would players want to see them? Fully blank model? Should have clothes + hair but no face? I should probably do some kind of poll soon.

Ahh, I wanted to make a little something involving Lucien for the O2A2 jam, but unfortunately, my mother got really sick and had to be hospitalized, and I was staying with her for the past few days, so I couldn't finish in time.
Thankfully she's alright now and we're back home, just seems tired and I'm keeping an eye her.
Really frustrated with myself that nothing I plan seems to be working out lately, being met with problems on every turn. I thought it'd be a fun thing to share with all of you but I'll have to scrap it now.
I'll still share the CG I made for it, tried really hard to finish in time but just couldn't make it, sorry I keep messing up with this 😭
It was going to be "Teatime with Lucien" with a little twist at the end. Also tried to do a lineless artstyle just to try out, I think it looks quite nice but it was a pain to actually do it 🥲
I even had a plan to jump from this to an update for the main game in time for my birthday and everything but now it's in shambles, I feel like I need to take a short break from everything so I'll step away from all social media for a bit, I hope that's ok.
Sooo I know I disappeared for a bit again, but this time I was basically doing my own shonen protagonist training arc - been consuming a TON of tutorials and practicing in general, only a few of them are even remotely worth sharing, like this one! I'm not very happy with it, but at the same time, I put in too much effort to let it go to waste so I thought, why not attach a drabble with this because I need to practice my writing alongside my art too..
And so here's a short story of sorts that would take place in the prologue (it won't be exactly like this in-game since I'll have choices and variations to incorporate) hope you enjoy!
"Would you like to dance?"
You look at Lucien as if he's grown an extra head, as he extends his hand to you, waiting. The two of you were taking a stroll in his gardens after dinner, and you were in-between feeling at peace in the environment, and incredibly nervous as you were walking alongside Lucien Lockhart, trying to wrap your head around the fact that he was no longer just your favorite character beyond a screen, he was living, breathing, right next to you, you.
You were quietly taking in the foliage under the moonlight, reveling in the novelty of it, never having had the chance to see such a gorgeous garden at night (but really, everything was new when you were in an entirely different world) when he sprung the question on you.
You could feel his quiet amusement to your reaction, as you stare holes into the palm of his hand, wondering if it was worth taking it, to risk making a completely fool out of yourself in the process, in front of him, and so soon after meeting him? No, you couldn't-
"You are always welcome to say no, please don't feel pressured to do anything you don't want to."
Doesn't that just lay on the pressure even more!? But as you look at him and his gentle expression, like you could do no wrong, it felt easier to go along with it. And the moment you placed your hand in his, you felt it was the right choice seeing his face light up from that action alone.
He gently pulls you into position, one hand still holding yours, the other on your waist. He looked for all the world, content, as if it was enough for him just to hold you, have you near. He gives you one last questioning look, silently asking if it's alright to keep going. You can't back out now; you give him a nod, not trusting your voice.
It took all of 2 seconds to step on his foot. Oh this was a terrible idea what were you thinking-
You were brought out of your down-spiral by the sound of your name, prompting you to look up, at his face, his ever present smile when he's near you, immediately providing you with reassurance.
"Don't overthink it, just trust me."
Trust him.
Wasn't that a lot to ask from someone who's practically a stranger? But then again, maybe you weren't. After all, the two of you knew about the other this whole time, when you assumed it was a one-way street. In fact, you think he knows you better (knows you well, too well) than most of the people in your life. You could see it in all the little considerations he made for you in your short time together.
So you couldn't help but want to trust him.
You take a deep breath to ground yourself, and as you do, you could hear music drifting in the air, faint, but present. It was from the musicians Lucien had hired to play during dinner (to welcome you, he explained, when you said it was a bit too much fanfare for someone like you. He promises the next dinner onward would be simpler, for you. You couldn't help but feel a little wonder, at the assured promise of future dinners spent together, like it was only natural.)
So they were still playing, you hadn't noticed from your nervousness, but it made it feel a little less awkward to have some music to dance to.
You set your shoulders, resolute, as you gaze back at Lucien. He gives you a knowing smile, and begins to move again.
Trust him.
And so you do. You let yourself loosen up, trusting him to lead, to go where he pushed and pulled. It takes a moment, but soon the two of you fall into a rhythm, dancing to the music, and soon everything else fell away. You couldn't help the smile that tugged at your lips; you were doing it, you were dancing! And when Lucien smiles back at you, eyes filled with nothing but pride and admiration for you, you could feel happiness swell from within you.
"I'm going to spin you, ok?"
The next moment, he gently pulls your arm up and leads you in a twirl, and you couldn't help but feel a little silly(a little giddy) as you enact a scene you could only imagine before.
"Once more"
That was all the warning you get when this time, he lets go of your hand to instead place both on your waist. You couldn't help the gasp ripped out of you when he lifts you for a spin, impossibly stronger than he appeared, but soon devolved into delighted laughter as you grab his shoulders, weightless in the air.
You've never felt freer than you did at this moment.
Sorry only had the energy for a rough sketch today, it's been a hard week 😭I'll redo this properly later
In the meantime, I've been typing out the "meat" of the prologue script last two days, for some reason the words aren't flowing easily atm so I've just been setting up the scenes first so I can edit the phrasing afterwards to make it all sound better.

I just realized I've never really done something like this before, and its a good time as any to mention it during pride month so here it is!
Lucien is panromantic demisexual! Though really, the only person he ever liked and would be attracted to is 'you'. His relationship with Rosalind was something he was programmed to feel, rather than a result of his actual feelings.
Also the little gremlin on his shoulder is me, hello
I drew this one for Valentine's day, but I was a day late in finishing it so I just. Decided to make Feb 15th his birthday. It just seemed fitting somehow.
