Description “What’s this, son? Such a pacifist to have come from me. Though I don’t hold a candle to Eris, I do enjoy a certain amount of liveliness. Still, perhaps it is good to have someone to hold the fort. Your next blessing will liven things up as well as giving you the means to hold steady. For you, a polecat. Like their ferret cousins, they enjoy getting into everything so your new companion will keep you on your toes when things are going well. In times of trouble, however, she comes with a special defence, though I hope you never need use it. Consider your future, child, and pay heed to your siblings."

Instead of going big I decided to experiment with this blessing. Not perfect, but it was fun to play around with.

It's tricky to find ways to hide a god parent's face and still portray physical contact, so I went with mask plus flowy cape. Partially inspired by the nymph in Fantasia. Whether those are Hecate's actual colour and what features show has yet to be seen.

Blair's blessing was a polecat that can generate a protective shield. She has above average intelligence, but while she's loyal she apparently isn't one to always obey. Hecate though Blair needed something to keep him on his toes. He named her Atropa, after the flower genus that belladonna and mandrake belongs to. A nod to the earthier aspects of his mother.

I'll eventually make a better reference for Atropa eventually; as far as specific species goes she's a European polecat.

LOVEEEE IT!~

The brush lines and the lines on Hecate's cape are awesome! So jealous of them! As well as the forest like frames, they look and tie in with the blessing very well.
Plus Blair got the cutest blessing ever!
maybe even more cuter than Calla's bra~

Aw thank you so much! c: I loved drawing all the flowing lines, it was lots of fun.
I'm afraid Blair likes his polecat more than he'd have liked receiving a bra.

I love the natural-magic feel that accompanies all of your Blair stuff. The best kind of magic.

KammiG In reply to PocketFairyChibi [2012-09-30 23:49:31 +0000 UTC]

A polecat, they're close relatives but I think slightly larger than most ferrets/ermines.

Hecate wants to keep him in his toes, she thinks he's too mellow. XD

Blair's weirded out face in the fourth panel makes me amused beyond words- He is so calm and composed it's nice to see the change. I love the lining on the panels, and your outfit choice for him too is so very lovely.

KammiG In reply to Marmarlade [2012-09-30 23:38:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! XD It takes a lot to ruffle his feathers but it's possible. And the lining was fun to do.
