Kas Beaumont Is The Other Male Lead In My Pirate High Fantasy Novel, To Sail On Starry Skies. Hes Originally

Kas Beaumont is the other male lead in my pirate high fantasy novel, To Sail on Starry Skies. He’s originally from much higher places, the second son of a duke who was captured for a ransom at 14 and the ransom was never paid. Kas worked hard to escape and join up with Captain Jennings in the Albion Royal Navy. But many wonder why he hasn’t opted to return home. . .

A smooth talker, an expert marksman, a duelist and a gambler, we learn more about Kas in today’s chapter, “A Gentleman’s Pirate”

Sharing a warmup sketch today, based on a pose reference by mellon_soup! Tried some pencil shading with different pencil types and I like the result enough to share it here! Especially Corym turned out well, I think :3

whenever someone apologizes for existing with "I'm sorry."

My response is, "You're not Sorry. You're [name]."

Don't apologize for existing.

Either people need to learn how to tell the difference between an “I’m sorry” that takes direct responsibility and an “I’m sorry” that signifies sympathy, or I’m gonna start responding to unfortunate information with a solemn nod and a “Sympies,” because I am tired of receiving a “Why? It wasn’t your fault” every time I try to vocalize compassion.

CRYING THIS IS LITERALLY SCOUT
