An anthropomorphic lizard, Sophia, with blue spotted skin, creating a golden four-pointed star in her left hand. She is wearing a dark blue dress with long puff sleeves and golden constellation embroidery. Next to her there is a tree with black branches, blue leaves and white flowers. A purple smoke with golden particles is floating behind her.

With a final thrust of her spear, Alex cut off the demon’s cries with a gurgling pierce to its neck. The beast slumped to the ground, skin and muscle already starting to boil away. 
Alex exhaled, yanking her spear out with one arm, the other hanging limply at her side. Blood trickled down her arm from a wound in her bicep.
She stumbled back and looked around for her reluctant fighting companion, the man she’d been sparring with before the demon suddenly attacked the two. He was walking toward her, but kept his eyes on the remains of the demon. His usual aloof, irritable expression was back on his face; funny, during the entire fight, the panicked fear he had plastered on had never changed. 
Alex couldn’t help but grin devilishly. “More than ya bargained for, guardsman?” She teased, limping towards him.
Sirius glanced away from the boiling mess at Alex with a scowl. While the man was excellent in human-on-human combat, he was still not a match for cursed magic beasts. He’d only landed one or two blows on the demon. But at least he was able to draw its attention a few times while Alex moved in for major damage… at the cost of her arm. And more scraps and cuts than he could count.
Sirius looked her up and down with disgust, gesturing with a hand, “yeah well, you barely won. Aren’t you supposed to be a master hunter?”
Alex sighed, slumping down on a rock as her arm throbbed. “I did win. Ya gotta take a few hits to win the war y’know.” She dug around in the packs on her hips with her good arm, fishing out some spare cloth. Tying it around her bicep was difficult though, and as the cloth slipped for the third time she sighed in frustration. Her fingers felt sluggish and her vision blurred a bit. Maybe the fight had taken more out of her than she thought.  Alex closed her eyes for a moment, pressing her fingers to the bridge of her nose.

Maybe the fight had taken more out of her than she thought. Alex closed her eyes for a moment, pressing her fingers to the bridge of her nose.

Sirius stood next to her, cleaning his sword on the hem of his tunic. Alex was no stranger to injuries. In the short time he’d known her, it felt like he’d seen more blood of hers than the Demons. He paused his cleaning at her sigh, and watched her shaky hand pinch the bridge of her nose. Sheathing his sword, he knelt down at her side. He didn’t ask for permission, instead smoothly scooping up the bandage and reached toward her injured arm.
At his touch, Alex jerked her arm away from him. “I don’t need your help, guardsman,” she grimaced. “I’ve done this a dozen times.”
“I’m sure you have,” Sirius said, deadpan, one eyebrow raised slightly, “you don’t dodge out of the way much in a fight. For a master demon hunter and all.”
Alex could only grunt as the cloth was back between her teeth as she tried again to wrap her arm. She hissed as her dirt-covered hand brushed against the open wound.
“You’re not going to clean it before bandaging?” Sirius asked, slightly confused. Is this some kind of trick?
“Hmpfh.”
Sirius sighed and shook his head. He gestured from his temple to her with an open palm, saying exasperatedly, “Ever heard of an infection?”
“Purfhgh,” she mumbled dismissively. The cloth slipped again, and Alex glared at Sirius. “You’re distracting me! I know how to take care of myself!”
“Could’ve fooled me, master hunter,” he sneered. The mighty hero didn’t know the basics of wound dressing? The skill drilled into him daily with the guardsmen? He could practically bandage a moving horse’s leg with his eyes closed. “Why do you have to be so stubborn? Just let me help you already!”
Alex opened her mouth to bite back at him, but a fresh wave of fatigue hit her, and her eyelids fluttered. Dammit, Sirius had riled her up with his remarks, as he always did. The dog had a knack for saying the stupidest stuff to set her off. She was a master hunter, dammit! Just saved his guardsman butt and he’s complaining?!

Water suddenly splashed over her injured arm, and Alex yelped, weariness suddenly gone. Sirius held her elbow like a vice as the blood and dirt washed down her arm. Alex cursed and yelled at him but he ignored her, concentrating on the wound. She tried twisting her arm away, and Sirius noted how easily he held on. Clearly, the woman was exhausted. 
Finally, she stilled, and resigned herself to his assistance. Sirius dabbed excess water from the wounded area, tapped some medicinal powder he always carried with him onto her arm, and expertly bandaged her bicep in cloth from his own supplies (which looked much cleaner than the spare rag from her pouch).
As he tied off the bandage, Sirius gloated “there, Alex, a properly cared for wound. Frankly, it might not even scar. Isn’t that a miracle?” He glanced up at her face.
Alex was silent, her head turned away from him.
“You’re welcome,” Sirius huffed, standing up with a grunt and patting dirt off his knee. Ungrateful woman.
Alex remained seated on the rock, hunched forward slightly, her forearms propped on her knees. She stared at the ground and said so quietly, Sirius barely heard it.
“Thank you.”
His gaze softened a bit. Maybe the woman’s bravado wasn’t the real Alex, as he assumed. Growing up in the survival-of-the-fittest Demon Hunting Guild, perhaps it was all a front to always appear to be number one - 
“Well? Aren’t you going to help me stand? Just going to leave me here on my ass, huh?” Alex looked up at him expectantly with a furrowed brow, holding out her good arm and flicking her wrist impatiently.
Sirius scowled. Never mind, the stuck up hero.

Last week I wrote a short scene with Alex and Sirius patching up after a fight with a Demon. Its nice to develop character voice like this 🥰 plus, I'm rusty at writing and want to do it again regularly!

It's been a while since I talked about it, but I'm slowly creating a collection of pay to use adoptable outfits that you can use for your characters! Currently it has three starry gown designs.

I made a bundle with a –30% discount if someone would like to get all three. 💙

A digital illustration of a dark blue-skinned anthropomorphic lizard, with turquoise spots, smiling while looking at a blue butterfly sitting on her hand covered in light blue scars reminiscent of lightning. Her eyes are light blue and wide open. Dressed in a pink blouse with little blue hearts on the neckline, dark blue pants with a dark belt embedded with blue gems and pink chains falling from it. She has a thick blue veil resembling two buns.
The background is very dark and has a few pink hearts on it. There's a watermark in the bottom left corner that says "hortensjjja, commissioned by 8th creation". End ID.
