Oh yes, this is the cat of the Lord. grin

I can already see Sceleritas trying to remove the cat's decorations from the wallpaper with a glue stick, while the cat purrs past Sceleritas legs and then uses a claw to decorate the wallpaper again.

Not at home. And no ghouls. And I didn't summon any. And the priest of Kelemvor is in the graveyard yelling for nothing because she's hysterical. The city council's personnel policy leaves a lot to be desired... And where's my owlbear-shaped backpack?

The bat turned into a boy, jumped off the bed, ran up to his father and clung to his camisole.

- Where's my backpack, Dad, haven't you seen it? - The child's big ruby eyes, with their trembling lashes and tears ready to spill, looked straight into Astarion's soul.

- Kid, no, I haven't seen it, I'll buy you a new one... - Astarion stroked his heir's head confusedly. - What about the graveyard and the priest of Kelemvor?

- You didn't see... - Astarion Jr. was clearly no longer interested in the fate of the city's graveyard, the notes of real drama could be heard in his sad voice.

- Mommy, I lost my backpack!!! - The little boy ran up to Dark Urge, the expression on his cute face reflecting all the sorrows of this mortal world. - Lost it!!! Where's my backpack?! I don't want a new one, I want the old one!!!

The child's loud cry drowned out the screams of the fighting cat and Sceleritas outside the door. Astarion clutched his head. Seconds later, the clinking of shattering glass, falling paintings, deafening furious meowing, and Sceleritas' swearing yet distracted the heir from his grief. He looked curiously at the door, interest displayed on his face, he took a step towards the door, but... “My son, you must learn to prioritize, you can't have everything at once...” Astarion Jr. remembered what his daddy had told him when he had tried to simultaneously climb onto his daddy's throne a week ago, stuff his mouth full of candy and brag about how his fangs had grown. He took in a breath of air, stomped his feet, and drew the attention from the disaster outside the door to himself.

- My backpack!!! Where is it?! I don't want it!!! I want it!!! Mom, find it!!! Daddy, buy it!!! I don't want the old one, I want the new one! No, no, no, no, I want the old one!!!! A backpack!!! Owlbear! It's mine! Where is it?!

The smell of rotting flesh in the room was no longer a problem. It was the last thing the young parents were interested in at that moment.

Oh, the little cutie seems to have had too many candies. hahaha

I can clearly see this little owlbear backpack in front of me, of course it is made from the best materials.

"Why do you think you lost it in our bedroom?" his mother asks. The little one signals to his mother that he wants to whisper, "Sceleritas and I pretended to be the lords here and put on Dad's clothes. You wouldn't believe how we laughed, Sceleritas looked so funny in it... oh... I think I remember where my backpack is ... it's in Dad's closet," the little one smiles embarrassed and slightly afraid. "He punished us just yesterday. He gets very angry if we touch his things."

Meanwhile, the sounds of fighting outside the door continue and Astarion looks towards the door with a satisfied smile. "I like the cat, she's entertaining and she knows how to flatter me. Plus she looks very good on my arm... of course not as good as you darling." He then devotes himself to his family again.

"He thinks he remembers leaving his backpack in the basement when they were exploring. He'll go look there now." She gently maneuvers the little one out of the room. "Sceleritas and the cat will accompany you."

She goes to Astarion, hugs him and gives him a gentle kiss. "You have to be brave now, darling..."

A loud "SSSccceeeeeellllllleeeeeerrrriiiittttaaaaaaaasssssssss" rings out through the corridors of the palace...

Thank you darlings for liking my images hug There is so much to learn and you are always confronted with problems that you then try to solve somehow. hahaha Luckily I'm exchanging experiences with someone very nice. She likes more the realistic style, she is very good at creating sunlight in Blender. She takes pictures with Spawn Astarion, I take pictures with Lord Astarion. Maybe she'll show you the images she made. smile


Snippet for Celesti:Since Sceleritas has cheated on the pictures too many times, they now have to sit in plain sight. If you follow the wolf's gaze, he will look in the direction of Sceleritas and Junior. The two sit on the sofa next to Oskar Fevras and tease the wolf with the candies they eat in front of him. But Sceleritas doesn't notice the cat behind him... will she push him to the wolf's paws? hahaha hug
