A still from the opening credits of The Mighty Nein, showing drow Essek Thelyss’s face framed in one facet of a beacon. A small felted toy of Essek Thelyss from Critical Role, framed within the face of a metal and glass beacon-shaped planter. A still from the opening credits of the Mighty Nein. It is a close up of Caleb Widogast’s face. He looks intense and there are flames reflected in his eyes. A close-up of the face of a small felted Caleb Widogast toy. There are little bits of rainbow light reflected across his face and over his eyes.

I sketched this really quickly on a whim.
And then it hit me, The Shadowhand’s Delivery Service doesn’t even need a broom, does it?

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

It’s finally Mighty Nein animation week. I’ve been waiting since the first announcement.
Thank you to everyone who brought this show to life and for the lovely weekend surprise.

I drew tiny M9, and they’re so cute I might turn them into stickers.

Ok, ok, ok, back with two more thoughts:

One: The lens flare sunspots while Caleb and Nott are walking are pentagon-shaped—like one face of a beacon/so much of the Kryn architecture. Walking into possibility together?

HOT BOI SIGHTED

I REPEAT: HOT BOI SIGHTED.

(went back to confirm and IT HE. Essek nation ARISE!)

#mightyneinspoilers #criticalrolespoilers #smolessekventures #essekthelyss
An animated still of mysterious, robed figure who is definitely a) hot and b) a boi, their face shrouded and a lock of white hair visible A small felted toy of Essek Thelyss from Critical Role looks at this animated portrayal of himself all mysterious and hot The small felted toy of Essek looks back at the camera, the animated still behind him, as though to say (plaintively), ‘was I really that neutral evil?’ (Yes)

in the wake of the season’s first snow, the #weezerds explore a botanical garden to remember what warmth and growing things are like. Essek has new ambitions for the scale of his orchids.

Small felted toys of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss stand in front of a massive orchid bloom that’s almost as big as they are. The orchid is fuchsia with a yellow centre. Caleb looks like he’s about to kiss Essek on the cheek. Small felted toys of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss stand in front of potted orchids in a botanical garden. The flower behind Caleb is orange; the ones above Essek are purple. Small felted toys of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss stand in front of potted orchids in a botanical garden.

Love wins again! Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land, following the Supreme Court’s decision not to hear a case attempting to overturn the 2015 same-sex marriage ruling. Thanks to the hard work of so many organizers who continue to fight for all of our freedoms. Let's keep it this way!

I know it’s the endless lament of the Essek fan that he’s left out of group merch, but, come ON. He was such a huge part of this battle! Kingsley being reborn from Lucien is what made them finally *nine*!

So much lovely fanart for the #fjorester wedding going up! Here’s my contribution—4100 words of indulgent, post-wedding #shadowgast

“What is the metaphor
for two animals
sharing the same space?
Marriage?”

A screenshot from Archive of Our Own of a fic entitled drafts, carbons, poems. Summary: Months ago, Caleb promised to ask Essek a question when the business of saving the world was finished. In the wake of the wedding of his two dearest friends, he finally gets around to doing so.

couldn’t bring the #weezerds out for the first snow because the Shadowbean would have bitten my hand if I tried. (Can’t blame him; it’s way too early to be -11 out with 10cm of snow. Ridiculous).

Essek and Caleb at Jester and Fjord's wedding party, k-i-s-s-i-n-g

#CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanArt #CriticalRoleSpoilers #shadowgast
digital fan art of Essek and Caleb from Critical Role, at Jester and Fjord's wedding, sitting on a bench and kissing. Essek is a young-looking slender dark elf with light lavender skin and shoulder-length white hair, which is artfully curled and pinned back. Caleb is a light-skinned thin human in his early forties, with auburn chin-length wavy hair and a full beard. they are both dressed in formal clothing, cream and light pink to match the colors Jester had picked for her wedding. Essek is wearing a silk shirt with bishop sleeves and a straight neckline that exposes his neck and a wide pearl choker; he also has slacks on, short enough to reveal his boots with metal toe-tips, as well as a coat made of thick matte fabric, with wide geometric shoulders and layered hanging sleeves. it is caught at the waist with a wide sash, the coat's two floral frog closures open. Caleb is dressed in form-fitting pants tucked into white boots, a leather strap around one of his thighs. he has a long-sleeved shirt on under a light pink sleeveless coat made of delicate floral brocade. there is a large white flower tucked behind his ear. both of them are wearing a bit of make-up: Essek has white lipstick on his bottom lip, and Caleb's eyes are accentuated with fiery red eyeshadow. they are sitting on a bench outside, leaning into each other, Essek placing a kiss on the corner of Caleb's mouth. Essek's left hand is guiding Caleb's chin towards him with a delicate finger, while his right is resting in Caleb's left. there is a flowering branch above them, soft pink petals lying on the white cobbled stones beneath their feet. the ocean is visible behind them, the setting sun shining right behind the couple's heads, illuminating them in warm orange glow.
