Blushing Flower

@blushingflower.bsky.social

Bees turned our blue aster into a bunk bed.

A blue aster plant with several flowers. There are bumblebees napping in two flowers, one on top of the other, much like a human bunk bed.

These aromatic asters (Symphyotrichum oblongifolium) have been silent all summer long until just days ago when they exploded in blooms. Before word could get out, these honey bees were dancing all over it.

Anniversary Date // pages 2-4 of 4! #MyArt

Dragon Age: The Veilguard fanart. Four page grayscale comic. Page 2. Panel 1: Lucanis smiles knowingly. Lucanis: "You know you never were very good at lying." 2: Aster smiles and holds a hand under their chin, trying to look innocent but glancing out the window with sweat effects. Aster: "Whaaat? That's not true." 3: Lucanis leans in, trying to look over Aster's shoulder, but Aster stands straight and with their arms out to block him with a nervous smile. Lucanis: "Oh? Then why do you keep looking--" 4: Aster covers his eyes with one hand and holds him back by the shoulder with the other, very nervously looking out the window with sweat effects while Lucanis shuts his eyes and smiles with amusement. Aster: "Okay, okay, just-- Just close your eyes for a minute." 5: Lucanis closes with eyes with a grin. Lucanis: "Haha. Alright"

Dragon Age: The Veilguard fanart. Four page grayscale comic. Page 3. Panel 1: Aster leads Lucanis to the window while covering his eyes, looking down at what's below outside, the eluvian along the wall behind them inside. Aster: Just stand right here and... Alright! Open your eyes!" 2: Sunlight shines directly at Lucanis who squints and blinks while Aster smiles at him, not realizing. 3: Lucanis looks down with a neutral expression while Aster looks at him with barely contained excitement. 4: Lucanis is shocked as he leans forward and yells. Aster puts a hand on their face as they smile with eyes closed hearts by their head. Lucanis: "Wait... ROOK?!" 5: A splash half page of the two in the distance in an upper story window of an ancient elven building in a rocky, muddy outdoor region with bones strewn about. A striped wyvern gnaws on some meat in the foreground. Aster: "Surprise!" Lucanis: "I can't believe it. You-- It's--" Aster: "Happy anniversary, Lucanis."

Dragon Age: The Veilguard fanart. Four page grayscale comic. Page 4. Panel 1: Lucanis holds Aster with a hand on their chest as he pulls them in to kiss their cheek, hearts coming out from between them. Aster grins as they hold his cheek. Lucanis: Now THIS is more your thing. Thank you." Aster: "Haha!" 2: Lucanis smiles down at the off screen wyvern with a fondness of a childhood dream fulfilled. Aster smiles down with relaxed satisfaction. 3: Lucanis turns to look at Aster with a smile pleading eyes. Lucanis: "Rook...?" 4: Aster smiles with knowing fondness as they hold his shoulders, while Lucanis looks resigned as he puts a hand on theirs. Aster: "Lucanis, I love you... But you KNOW I can't let you go down and try to pet a wyvern." Lucanis: "*sigh* You're right." 5: From behind, Lucanis and Aster lean their heads together as Aster holds him across the shoulder and Lucanis holds them around their back. Lucanis: This is all I need." Caption: "End."

Anniversary Date // (page 1 of 4) // Nearly one year after their Veilguard adventures, Aster "Rook" de Riva takes Lucanis out for a surprise date
#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #Rookanis #MyArt
One of the two rookanis comics I made to celebrate Veilguard's upcoming one year release anniversary! 💜

Dragon Age: The Veilguard fanart. Four page grayscale comic. Page 1. Panel 1: Aster, a Crow elf Rook with short dark hair, holds Lucanis's hand as they both emerge from an eluvian, gesturing out to the room with a grin as they look back at Lucanis, who is half emerged from the eluvian and looking around with slight confusion. Caption: "Nearly one year after the defeat of the Evanuris. Morning." Aster: "Here we are!" Lucanis: "Old elven ruins?" Lucanis: "Yeah, the Inquisitor told me about it." Title: "Anniversary Date by Erin Jade Raven." 2: Lucanis looks around with a small smile while Aster leans to look out a window in the background. Lucanis: "I admit, I didn't expect this for our date. But I suppose it IS like old times." Aster: "Uh-huh, yeah." 3: Lucanis turns to look at them with a raised eyebrow. Lucanis: "Rook...?" 4: Lucanis smiles. Aster leans on the window frame, obstructing the view with their body in a way where they're trying to act casual but clearly are not. Lucanis: "What are you up to?" Aster: "Nothing. Or, I mean... Maybe I'm trying to seduce you."
