She smiled at him; amused, despite herself. She carefully sat down beside him and gently wrapped her arms around him, whispering to him to rouse him from his slumber.

"Hiiragi-sama..." she cooed, "It's time to wake up..."

"...I don't want to." he said.

"Why not?"

"Because I'm afraid that if I open my eyes, you might not be there."

I miss RP-ing.

I also miss working with traditional media. I'm in a stump with my current projects, and I did this during my break. This is a watercolor based illustration with color pencil finishing.

Sadly, the scanner can't pick up the colors exactly the way it looks in my sketch pad. It's always frustrating when it does that, especially since I think I work with traditional media better than digital.

Anyway, I got the inspiration from this picture from the lyrics of Stevie Hoang's song "Addicted". The song talks about a guy who can't move on and can't be with the one he loves. It reminded me of my Polychromatic days, because I realized Hiiragi must feel terrible that Kuromi is no longer there...

Everything here is traditionally done aside from the lyrics, border, and my Chinese stamp.

I've drawn their hair too long again, aiyah~
