This piece went through so many ugly stages, but I'm finally starting to like it again.
Delphine, Varrick, and the shadow creature from my most recently finished book, on Copic markers and gel pen.

My yellow roses are done. They're a heritage type that only blooms once (but profusely). My red roses have started. In theory, they should reboot the rest of the summer.

And this rough draft is done. I started in January, stepped back to revise the PoV, and finished Saturday afternoon. The hard part will be ignoring it for a week before self-editing (and cutting 15k)

He wouldn't intentionally pose like this. He flirts by explaining arcane geometry.

Varrick is a highly-educated, magical prodigy, but he's also 6'5", green, and has horns, so humans treat him like a dangerous, dumb barbarian.
He's equally frustrated by society's obsession with scandals and how they affect Delphine.

Be aware that he flirts by info-dumping about theoretical arcane geometry and interplanar vertices.

From my romantasy wip:
Jaglin have stripes, dapples, spots, and rosettes. Delphine is not amused when Varrick points out that some humans, like her, also have spots.
"Those are FRECKLES!"
"But they're still spots and speckles."

The creatures in question: residues are small, autonomous parts that drift off a larger elemental creature. They feed off emotion and energy, slowly draining a person. Magi can dissipate them so they aren't a threat.
