digital fanart of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role, having dinner and a heated discussion at the same time.

Caleb is a light-skinned thin human in his forties; his dark red hair is swept back, and there is a touch of white at his temples and in his full beard. he is dressed in a white shirt, the embroidered collar open and the sleeves rolled up to reveal the regularly spaced long-healed scars on his forearms.

Essek is a young-looking slender drow with dusky lavender skin and shoulder-length white hair, which is curled in a swirl and pinned back neatly. he is dressed in a low-necked black shirt and a dark blue silk robe over it.

they're sitting at a dinner table, cluttered with both food and various books and scrolls. there is a woven bread basket, a peach and a plum lying next to each other, an inkwell with a quill, an open book next to Essek. Caleb is rubbing his jaw pensively with his right hand, pointing at something on a sheet of parchment in front of him with his left index finger, having pushed his half-finished bowl of soup to the side. Essek is sitting close to Caleb, holding a spoon in his left hand over his own bowl of soup and about to bite down on a slice of crusty bread in his right. he is looking at whatever Caleb is pointing at, leaning forward and listening intently. there is a calico cat in his lap, her mischivieous face just visible over the edge of the table, and she is trying to swipe some bread crumbs closer to herself with a paw.

the color scheme is warm and bright, as if the room is lit with afternoon sun, and the semi-realistic rendering is done with wide textured strokes.ALT

i feel like no amount of labeling and marie kondo-ing their cottage would stop Essek and Caleb’s dinner table from becoming a research table as well

tip jar

a humorous black and white fan comic featuring characters from Critical Role. in the first two panels, Essek (wearing his Seth disguise) addresses Dorian with "Careful, you're a heart-breaker". Dorian is looking at him with an incredibly confused expression, question marks exploding around him. 
in the next two panels, Caleb says to Orym with an intense face, "If not now, when?", and Orym is staring down with wide eyes, sweat beading on his forehead, multiple question marks running in a row behind him. 
at the bottom, Essek is in his drow form, wearing a comfortable house robe, his wild curly hair pushed back with a sleeping mask resting high on his head. he is drinking from a coffee mug, holding a sending stone in the other hand, and says "Do you think our intervention has helped?". below him in a different panel and clearly in a different physical space, Caleb is holding his sending stone up to his mouth with one hand, and has a small toy alligator in the other, inspecting it carefully. he responds, "Absolutely. We were exceedingly straightforward with our advice, I am positive they've asked each other out by now."ALT

congratulations to the dorym enjoyers, may your little guys be blessed with the same domesticity the mighty nein are
