I’m an adult in much the same way ai makes “art” like I just look at what real adults do and think “okay got it” then by the time I do it I’ve got three extra fingers and the comments section is furious

"Your highness."

The new knight's eyes burned with passion as they lifted Prince Oluwande's hand. Soft lips pressing to his skin - tender, intimate, full of desire.

The Prince barely held in a gasp. His hand had been kissed a hundred times before, but never like this...

#TealOranges #OFMDart

Digital art of Oluwande and Jim from OFMD, drawn as a prince and knight respectively. Jim is lifting Oluwande's hand and pressing a kiss to his knuckles, while looking at Oluwande with bedroom eyes. Oluwande stares at them with wide eyes.

Oluwande is wearing his Prince Azi costume with a circlet crown. Jim wears a full knight's plate armour, decorated with orange blossom engravings. They also wear a teal cape and a sword dangly earring. The background is grey to orange ombre, with a teal and gold border.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But when I became grown, I put away childish things. Then when I became a bit more grown, I rebought those same childish things from a vintage reseller and kinda don’t know how to feel about it

“There. Much better” Ed whispered softly as he rested his chin on Stede’s shoulder.

Boyfriend's pockets are the best pockets. Ed says so. Got to do an illustration for @watchtheflow.bsky.social's toasty sweet 'Bonfire Night'! 🧡

#ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're wearing modern warm clothing; coats and scarf and gloves. Ed is resting his chin on Stede's shoulder as he shoves his hands into Stede's coat pockets from behind. Stede is giggling, all crinkly eyes and dimples. The night is cold enough for their breath to show and they're lit from below from a nearby bonfire. They're as sticky toasty sweet as smores.

Forcing myself to do the promo thing 😅 there's only three (3) of the Blackbeard buckles left to buy in the world now! If you wanted one, now is your time!
Lots of Cool S stickers and various other goodies in my shop too.

#Supermoon tonight! Grab a foil pie tin, some concrete patch compound, remote-controlled fairy lights, plus a little scrap cardboard, and you too can have your very own pet moon to hang on your wall.
Channel your inner Buttons and bask in the glow 🌝
