digital sketch of Caleb Widogast from critical role, done in the shades of brown and orange. he is shown from shoulders up, smiling slightly and looking somewhere off screen. he's wearing his long hair in a ponytail and his heavily freckled face is cleanly shaved.ALT

realized i almost never draw caleb without his signature scruff, decided to quickly remedy that just for variety’s sake

+ not very serious bonus essek ‘i haven’t trusted anyone ever’ thelyss looking at that irresistible face (after a persuasion roll so middling and sad it made everyone in exandria cringe) and deciding to reveal his super duper secret magics to a person he’s just met

digital sketch of Essek Thelyss from critical role, styled like a little comic panel. he's looking down with a focused expression on his face, biting his bottom lip, his hands clasped in front of his chest. on each of his shoulders there is a little chibi Essek with devil's horns, wings and tail. one of them is saying "ooh but the cat paw is so cute!" with a mischievous expression on his face; the other is facing away from the viewer (no less mischievous though), his tail curling in a heart shape, and is saying "ooh but he's so pretty, look at his sad puppy eyes!".ALT

i hesitate to call this one shadowgast spice because it’s not sexual, but it does feature rope bondage so i thought that i should probably put it under a read more 💜 enjoy!

i’ve got a certain number of bondage/shibari-related shadowgast headcanons that are super fun to explore in my head, but to my constant disappointment i am not an experienced writer, so what you’re getting is less plot and more pictures of people being soft and in love. over and over and over again. which is also very good if i say so myself

(maybe a little bit plot)

anyway, Caleb’s freckles needed to be kissed yesterday

(tip jar!)

digital sketch of Yasha and Essek from critical role, styled like a little comic panel. they are standing next to each other and looking down at a steaming cake pan. Yasha has her hands on her hips and is saying "I don't think cakes are supposed to be gooey in the center like that...". Essek is touching his face with one hand with a pensive expression, hugging himself with the other arm, and is replying "No, I don't believe they are". Yasha is wearing a belted tunic with the sleeves rolled all the way up to her shoulders, showing off her massive arms; her wild curly hair is at its post-campaign chin length, with a few braids woven into it. Essek is wearing a simple oversized shirt, gloves that look like they were designed for protection and not food handling, and Yasha's apron, which reads 'Zadashian in the streets, Xhorhassian in the sheets' and is way too big for him.ALT

Yasha is convinced their cake is a half gooey half burnt mess because Essek was wearing gloves the entire time they were baking (alchemist habits) and due to that none of his love had transferred from his hands to the ingredients. also she wasn’t sure what baking powder is

(it was actually Essek fucking up the temperature. they did get all the ingredients right down to the gram though)

shout out to @ionomycin for making me think about Yasha and Essek baking cakes together, and @khalliys for giving me an absolutely hilarious mental image of Yasha making Essek wear her apron

tip jar!
