Seren had Selwits even then, gosh those little furfriends have been doing sterling service for YEARS!!! 🙂
Etan looks really sorrowful, must’ve been a heck of a life for him as well. 🙁
Aeren in cute fluffy EARMUFFS!!!! 😀
StoryWriter
Aw….much feels about this page. Poor Etan. His life was not easy. Poor Seren. Poor Aeren. They say don’t look back but maybe Aeren should have. He would have seen Seren. Maybe even Etan.
You know I wonder. Seren looks much older than he does when Sere showed him his….”present” I wonder if Etan or Aeren knew what was going on with Sere and Niniri. (Did I spell that right?) I think if Aeren knew I doubt he would have been away so much. Or Etan wouldn’t have left Seren with them.
StoryWriter
Sorry the first comment was wrong. Meant Aeren not Etan.

I absolutely love this page. Back in the day I did a drawing for an illustration class using the top half as reference and my professor thought I was using an Aubrey Beardsley work. I set him straight on the matter. 🙂
Colleen Doran
🙂 What a great compliment!

Speaking of Detail–
Took me two looks to notice Aeren is sporting nipple!
*Whoo-Hoo!*

STAMPERS!!! Gosh, crikey, Whoo-Hoooooooooooo indeed!! 😀

Oh great. That’s the first thing to catch my eye now.
I keep flashing back to a poster my brother had in his room a Star Wars Poster of Anikan Skywalker walking and his shadow is Darth Vader and it says don’t look back. That’s the mental image I get when I see Aeren walking away and Seren running after him. Just look back Aeren!

Well, there are worse things that could catch your eye…..
Come back, Shane! (No wait, wrong movie)
StoryWriter
Yeah like blondie being barely dressed. Not even gonna mention his name!
Queen Ynci
Aaaaahhhh…. I think I know the one you mean, StoryWriter….. Hack Spit BLEARGH!
RabidEwok
I loved it when Liana threw ButterBear at him! Pity it wasn’t a fully grown enraged and very hungry Grizzly Bear, Kodiak Bear, or Polar Bear! Or even better a whole pack of all 3 species of bears!
And here he’d thought getting nailed by a Teddy Bear was bad!
StoryWriter
Well how do we know that was the actual bear? I mean didn’t Liana leave him with Mario?
RabidEwok
IIRC it was a duplicate ButterBear some Hierarchy member created for Liana. Think it was Scantily Clad Blondie himself who did it but I’d have to check my books. Anyway he didn’t enjoy his encounter with ButterBear any more than Niniri liked her encounters with herds of Liana’s stampeding, trumpeting, and farting psychic elephants. She also didn’t enjoy the image of a female dog nursing a litter of puppies when Liana told Seren what she really thought of Niniri! 😀 Was perfectly okeydokey with the secondary definition of the name she was called lolz! In my imagination those elephants of Liana’s are all various shades of pink! >:)
RabidEwok
Too bad Aeren couldn’t have taken Seren with him when he left! Poor boy could have used some mothering from Jessica! And he’d have made a good older “brother” protector for Jason and Liana after the rest of the family were gone.

True, RabidEwok–Very True!
[Of course, that might’ve ruined the story, but it says something when you get so invested in the characters that you don’t even care….You just want them to live happy and peaceful lives!]
Colleen Doran
🙂 Thank you!
StoryWriter
Pink Elephants! Now I’ve got the song in my head. I think at this point in time we are all so emotionally invested in the characters that we want them to be happy and safe. I think to all of us we consider them family. If the creator gets us so emotionally invested in the characters then I say that they did a fantastic job!
Stampers Saverem
To Colleen–You Deserve it!
To StoryWriter–
Pink Elephants on Parade!
(And now its stuck in MY head as well…]

I’ve been having fun imagining how different this storyline would be if Aeren had taken Seren away with him to Earth like what RabidEwok said. What an idea!
