concept: my girlfriend and i are making pancakes, it is cold and rainy but we are warm in our house, i jump off the table in fuzzy socks, i land perfectly, she is impressed, everything feels okay
been thinking a lot lately about fantasy races and their approaches to makeup. after all, surely humans wouldn’t be the only ones who would want to enhance their appearance.
consider: dwarves favouring bright, jewel-like tones so vibrant they resemble crushed gemstones: sapphire blue and verdant green, copper and silver and gold, designed to dazzle and catch the eye. elves preferring more subtle, pastel hues derived from nature: warm, pinkish tones that remind one of a sunset, or yellow like fields of ripening wheat, or the icy blue-white of a frozen stream, brushed onto eyes and lips with a delicate, precise hand. orcs selecting bold, dark, earthy tones that reflect their surroundings: shades of gray, and green, and brown that they proudly streak across the planes of their faces like war paint.
honestly nothing beats that little rush when u leave a comment on a fic knowing ur about to make the author’s fuckin WEEK when they log in and see the notification in their inbox
