Silver & Iron: Part Three Pages 45/49

The thought “Are we flirting?” repeats in the background of the page. The colours of the club’s lighting - cyan, magenta, yellow - cycle through the panels disjointedly. The two men are still sitting side-by-side, and Ashley leans in when Lake speaks. Lake: “Not just for that night. For everything. You’ve done a lot for us that you didn’t have to.” Lake’s eyes are back down at the table, finding the words to say. “I feel like I need to… repay you.” There’s a flash of his sharp fangs as his lips move. Their shoulders are pressed together. Ashley, thinking: “His skin is so cold, but so soft. It’s nothing like a cadaver.” He leans against his own hand holding the bottle he got from Lake, still watching the other man, smiling. “Yeah? Repay me how?” Their forearms stay resting next to each other on the table, touching casually where they’re closest. The mantra of “Are we flirting?” repeats as he mentally compares how his hand would fit inside Lake’s larger palm, even though Ashley’s hands are already not small. A bead of condensation trickles down the beer bottle over the fingers on Ashley’s other hand. Lake looks up at him, making eye contact, and answers, “However you want.”

Ashley’s face slips, brows raised and eyes half-lidded, mouth parted slightly; he’s perhaps surprised? Interested? The club’s lighting shifts as he takes a beat, gazing directly at Lake, still pressed in alongside him at their booth. “Y’know what?” He thinks. “I really… really-” He leans over until he’s out of frame- “Need this to be- flirting.” His lips connect with Lake’s, just a peck, the two of them crowded over the small table, their long legs sticking out and into the walkway, unable to fit; Ashley has closed his eyes but Lake’s are still open, and Ashley has dared to brush his hand over the top of Lake’s where their arms had been resting together on the tabletop. The club is still lit in its neon colours, but the two of them are illuminated for the first time together under the narrow white beam of light from the single fixture above.

I love it when my friends tell me about their OCs and lore. "Look, I made a guy. This is why he can't ever find peace. Here's his dick"

Yaoi day, huh... don't mind if I do 🐺🦇 #Silver&Iron

Art of the characters Ashley Lovell & Lake Bailey from the webcomic Silver & Iron, Ashley pulling Lake down to meet him where he sits for a kiss

Colour art of Ashley & Lake in a simplified "chibi" style sitting in a big box of chocolates. Ashley is holding his own box of chocolates he received from Lake, and is offering his neck bashfully in return. Lake is hitting the flushed emoji

Ashley & Lake sprawled on a beat-up armchair, Lake's arm around Ashley's shoulders, Ashley's leg resting on top of Lake's, both looking at the viewer.

Lake holding a body pillow made out of a comic panel featuring Ashley lying on his bed looking haggard. Lake is also looking melancholic, thinking "Oh weird dog guy... we're really in it now"

Silver & Iron: Part Three Pages 38/49

Lake gestures with his own beer somewhere over his shoulder. “We should get a table,” he says, as the bottle he offered passes from his hand to Ashley’s. Ashley, still wide-eyed and stunned, simply replies, “Right.” Lake walks off in the direction that he pointed, leaving Ashley staring after him; he takes a moment before turning to look across the dance floor to his friends at the booth table. They all saw that happen and are staring at him with saucer eyes. Ashley stares back with equally massive saucers. He takes a moment to process, then hits them with a shit-eating shrug and hurries off to follow Lake. Lake has found a smaller round table, built into a secluded alcove, under a focused ceiling light that illuminates the tabletop and not much more. The curved booth could fit four to maybe six people, but Ashley makes it look like a tight squeeze as he slides in opposite Lake, who has sprawled in a manner to accommodate his legs which also happens to look very nonchalant. Ashley, who can’t help but stare: “Um… what- what are you doing here?”

Despite the light fixture between them, the primary lighting of the page still bounces between cyan, magenta, and yellow. Lake has one arm leaning behind him on the booth and the other nursing his beer in a somewhat suggestive panel composition. “Should I not be?” He says, slightly nervous, but in a way that sounds blunt. A narrative box humorously suggests that if he could use a tone indicator here it would be “/gen”. Ashley’s posture is also nervous as he goes to open his bottle of beer. “No, I didn’t mean that at all-! I just didn’t know you liked- um- I guess I meant, what brings you here…? If I may ask?” Lake: “Same reason as you. Right?” He speaks around the lip of his bottle as he takes a sip. “For fun.” Ashley pauses, eyebrows raised, about to take his own sip - then whips away from Lake with an expression of disbelief and takes a swig. Ashley, thinking: Why did that sound like a pick-up line??” Lake, extremely nervous now, glancing away, thinking: “Do not say you followed him in here. It’s just a bar. Vampires hang out in bars all the time. I could be one of them. He doesn’t know I’m not.” Ashley, still thinking: “No, don’t overthink things. Of course he’d pull you aside, you have a million things to-” He pauses, his eyes darkening, tone dropping to be more serious. “... Talk about.” He says aloud: “Um… can I ask… how is the girl?” Lake doesn’t meet his eye for a moment, lips pursed. Ashley grimaces as Lake speaks: “It’s still touch-and-go. Her parents are dead. But she’s being brave about it. And she likes being a vampire-” Ashley’s expression shifts from concern to thought until he interrupts Lake, brow furrowed. “Wait- but then-”

Ashley: “But she’s alive? I mean- she’s okay? There was no relapse?” Lake looks slightly startled at the interjection before realising what he’s asking and quickly says, “No! No, she’s perfect.” Ashley listens to this in shock, his mouth hanging open slightly, before clenching his jaw and slumping forward, head in his hands. Lake is reminded instantly of the night they found Heliotrope, where Ashley had collapsed over her body, sobbing in relief after his experimental treatment had worked to cure her of the infection. Then, too, Lake had been unable to say or do anything, only watch as he cried; and now Lake is seeing it happen again, Ashley’s shoulders trembling, and all Lake can do is stammer. But to his surprise Ashley rockets back upright with a booming laugh, his smile so huge it seems to radiate colour - even if the people at the booth next to them look annoyed - before running his hands through his hair, his relief palpable in his expression and dissolution of tension in his body language. “That is the best news I’ve head all week-! God! This means we really have a working- well, not for sure, but it’s a start… after so long… a start…!” As he rambles on happily Lake watches, eyes wide, with a tiny smile of his own forming. Ashley: “And she’s okay!! She’s okay…! Ha hah…”

Silver & Iron: Part Three Pages 35/49

Ashley waits around the crowded bar for his turn to order. The bar lighting more bright and sterile than the rest of the club’s coloured lights, illuminating Ashley as he approaches. He counts on his fingers, thinking: “But still! I used to make it work! It can’t have been six years, can it…?” Someone leaving with their drinks takes a double look at Ashleys height before walking off. Ashley, still thinking: “Did it count with that guy at Chloe’s party- if you have to ask, no, it doesn’t… Oh my God… No wonder Maddoc thinks I’m wound up…” (Aside: I don’t really wanna think about him right now.) Ashley’s eyes turn down. (Thinking) “I did decide I needed to focus on school, but what if I had it the wrong way ‘round? Maybe, to stay focused, I actually needed that outlet- when someone would shut my brain up so I couldn’t think about anything except how good it felt-” Bartender, unseen, interrupting: “What can I get you?” Ashley, smiling with a jolt: “Uh- Yeah! Can I open a tab, and get two beers, a Cos-” Someone else taps a bottle of “De Ville brewery” beer against the countertop, visually cutting off the panel and catching Ashley’s attention, who trails off into “mo…” before his eyes follow up from the bottle to see the person holding it. In the final panel we only see the back of that person’s head, but they have short black hair, and from the perspective they are even taller than Ashley. Ashley stares at them, credit card still outstretched. The bar is lit in blue, but Ashley is stylised in yellow while the new figure is stylised in red.

The figure is revealed to be Lake, recognised first and foremost by his vivid red eyes looking down at Ashley through his fringe - but he has changed slightly since he arrived at the club. He has taken off the red dress shirt and tied it around his waist, leaving only the borrowed white singlet shirt, and broken the cast on his hair, tousling it around his head closer to its usual style, though the pomade gives it extra volume. A thin gold chain is around his neck with a pendant that appears like an inverted cross. But most strikingly, his current outfit gives a good view of his body for the first time, revealing him to be broad-shouldered and densely muscular, with a moderate layer of body fat padding out his arms and chest. He gazes at Ashley with a neutral expression and wordlessly offers the bottle of beer towards him, his stance open and mostly casual, with the exception of slightly tensed shoulders. All Ashley can do is stare back in response, shocked into silence, thinking “... Huh?”

LITERALLY 😭 oh my god don’t even get me started on the crazy mods people put all over their sdv games like to each their own but it’s like people who mod + cc their sims games into oblivion too. why even play that specific game at that point if you’re overwriting all original stylistic intent!! 😬

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

game’s not even out yet and not even in beta of Course he’s going to reuse some assets and recolor some old ones as placeholders omfg i swear to god nobody has a brain anymore 😭

120

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

improving them to get to the portraits we‘re familiar with now 😭 on a similar note i’ve seen people complaining about the character portraits in new footage from his next game, Haunted Chocolatier, saying shit like “oh he’s just REUSING stardew assets how lazy” like… well yes?

120

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

it’s insane to me that people are hating on this like i think it looks great??? it’s so charming and uniquely in CA’s style lol. also people love to conveniently forget sdv had some pretty lackluster character portraits for the LONGEST time and it took him years of tweaking and

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

curve and color adjustments are such a vital part of my process it’s actually kind of wild i’ve been doing digital art since 2012 and i didn’t discover curves until 2022

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

something about values or whatever but that’s where my good friend the adjustment curve comes in

110

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

also had a lot of people asking me how i know what colors to choose and like. that’s actually a completely valid question but i have no idea how to explain it does anyone else have this problem. idk im autistic i just choose them and then if they look like shit i pick different ones

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

ashley being a middle school gleek is actually such beautiful insight to his character like i know Exactly the kind of person he is just from that statement alone

111

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

LMAOOO that’s the best answer anyone could hope for he’s a man after my own heart… i think i was about 11 when i watched glee too so me and ashley we‘re like this 🤞

111

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

also if ashley was into mainstream theatre in high school that does beg the question… did he watch glee. was he a gleek. world’s first werewolf gleek

220

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

LMAO HE WOULD THINK IT’S SO DEEP oh i love him… honestly never waste your time with rent it’s like Just Fine imo

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

120

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

also i get a sort of Guys And Dolls and Catch Me If You Can vibe from him though i‘m not very familiar with either of those shows myself 🤔

020

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

plus gay rite of passage Rocky Horror Picture Show. do you think Ashley would have done a production of it in college because i sure did and it seems right up his alley

230

Soph ☀️ @cinnam1nt.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

i was big into MT in high school (was actually gonna go into college for it lol) and as someone who only really likes a few shows myself this list is probably very biased - Pippin - A New Brain - Anything Goes - probably something slightly more mainstream like Into The Woods. or Cats LOL
