Valentine’s Day Gaming

Custom game map, with a heart-shaped lava pool

This is a custom map I made as a surprise for my boyfriend on Valentine’s day. Click to see it full size, in all its glory!

The game itself is called The Battle for Wesnoth, a turn based strategy game. It’s free and has such beautifully pixeled units. On my map, each player starts out with a castle, and must recruit soldiers to attach the enemy king. You are blocked by a massive heart-shaped lava lake, and must either trek around the edges of it, or risk the narrow stone bridge to cut across it. Much blood-thirsty fun was had that day. :)

Meander

The head and the heart don’t always agree

The tenuous connection between the head and the heart.

Imagined Kiss

Arch your back, and throw back your head, as you imagine the perfect kiss

So much of attraction is all in the mind.

Gooey Centre

Black heart, with a soft center

Many a blackened heart conceals a soft gooey centre.

I Love Toast

Toast and butter, locked in a melty embrace

And it loves me.

Toast and butter are a match made in heaven.

Heart Complaint

Poor little heart, pondering about his banjaxed owner

My owner just keeps getting broken. I wish he’d stop mountain climbing and go dating, like a normal person.

Love Will Find a Way

Apple and pear, sittin in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g! Somebody has been grafting branches again

Love will find a way to make your life as complicated as possible.

Hopeless Romantic

Rejected again. Not even the flowers helped. Dating in the city is pretty tough, but he’s not quite ready to let her go.

It’s tough being a hopeless romantic.

Red and Yellow

The scarlet outfit and umbrella contrast with the wearers yellow hair

“Yellow and black, friend of Jack;
Red and yellow, killed a fellow.”

An old rhyme to help identify poisonous snakes. Funny that it should spring to mind as he first set eyes on his blind date for the evening. She was quite a looker, but he found himself hoping that she’d been de-fanged.

Romantic Animation

the petals gather to form a rose only for a few brief moments

At some time, I’d love to set up an ecard site. This is an experimental romantic ecard, for practice, but I like how it came out. It’s pink and got a rose, soft and delicate.
