What? THAT guy? He's an Initiate of the Art? Really? Where is his robe? AND his staff? What, is he a card-dealer at some casino? And what is this spacialty of his: Megapolo...Meagilpa..Megolopa...Heck, I can't even pronounce it!! Yeah, right, can YOU say: Incunabula-Incunabulus!, card-dealer? Besides, my dear Captain...please....very, very handsome? This one? Ha! He barely justifies ONE very - if any! HA!! (Raises his head in a huffy way and twilrs his magic staff like a gunslinger - while glancing surreptitiously to a mirror nearby)

Thank you very much for the generous tip! It doesn't matter, we all see excellent work we would have voted, only after the challenge is finished. The distinguished gentleman H.R. De Castries is part of a series I make and you will certainly see more of him in the future! 🙂 I wish the same to you!

cracking up! you're so funny! Don't worry. After you find a few more grimoires, I'm sure you'll be able to do what he can do. Look at how he's using the power from the lightning without a staff! It's like no hands when riding a bike! Cool, right? Sighs. And he's soo soo handsome.

Thank you! I have a few pics in a series with him. I like this theme and I'll return to it. It ended up mid-list #31. The real surprise, though, was that two of the images I was absolutely certain would get the two first places are not even in top-ten. Well.....

....I'll get back to Grimoire-Questing.... Which, all of a sudden became (more) complicated - what a surprise, there.... There is this young woman.... but, no Captain, you'll read all about it in my letters from Somewhere Far Far Away... 🙂

....You DO like to rub salt in it, eh? And, THIS guy is NOT my cousin! I have no card-dealing cousins. Only Stalker, gun-toting, monster-slaying, vampire-lovng ones!
CaylaCatz
that's ok, you go enjoy your quest for the grimoires. I'll hang out here with your very Very handsome cousin and drink martinis
