LMAO those spells were a *menace*- the number of times both of us died in bossfights because my spell decided to take a big chomp of foxgirl pie or magic twink crème brûlée, instead of attacking the enemy that was right in front of it, goes beyond count lol

What's this? Our timelapse? shocker.

(also yes, I misinterprited Calamitas' sprite and didn't realise until I was colouring it, then couldn't be bothered to fix it. In my defence, the shading looked like a veil to me-)

The two highlights today:
Lex's daughters got ahold of another of his spell tomes, and decided the 'blank' pages needed decorating. At least they didn't cast any accidental hexes!
And Lex himself is starting to regret vouching for the crazy witch lady, all the spells she teaches him try to eat him..

It was incredibly effective lmao- his daughters loved it especially
(and he's being a diva about it, but Lex did enjoy it- he just doesn't want you to know that because it'd encourage you to do more of that.)

And as usual, the timelapse!
The shot of the moon was my favourite dramatic lighting I've drawn in forever

Two more highlights; that time Lex got reverse Disney Princess'd by a ghost frog in the dungeon, and when Alphox decided he was too much of a workaholic so she locked him in a small cube and gave his daughters a beach ball to bounce off his head. For 'enrichment' purposes, of course!

Happy birthday again! ^-^ and *all* the fluff! the fluffiest Hornet around-

Last one-

lmao very true! and he did a ton of damage... to the version of Plantera that didn't exist-
It was very funny

Thank you so much!

Last extra, I promise. Bsky didn't let me attach a video with the images unfortunately.

Something I like about the timelapses, is that they show much better than I can remember what the chronological order of the artworks is.

I have to give an honorary mention to the suspicious 'damage boosting' mushroom his friend fed him that made Lex hallucinate- worst trip of that poor guy's life lol.

And to the rattlesnake who lives in his shirt that I forgot about until I found it in my inventory again a month later.

I'm astounded- truly- could never have seen it coming lol

Lmao *exactly*- where do you keep finding them??? (presumably the ocean ig-)

Bonus short timelaps of the doodle page, for anyone who likes seeing these :D

I swear, we just kept coming across more and more ocean themed abandoned children, and Lex just couldn't leave them behind. He's up to 5 kids now I think? And trying to keep them away from his spell tomes (and their water off his books) is proving difficult.

He's a mage who came to study forbidden magic and to challenge the power of the very gods.. but somewhere along the way his friend fished a child out of the ocean and now he's a struggling single dad trying his best to juggle his ambitions and being a good parent to his ocean spirit daughters.
