Wow! I didn't know you planned it to be a series. This one turned out to be one of your (if not the) favorite work you've put up so far. The photo and the story was flawless! I got some Karate Kid vibes at the start, and the ending was just so heartwarming. And the picture, oh the picture. It's probably my favorite angle of all of them. I especially liked the shadow detail on the right thigh and the expression on Rei's face. Folding the left hand in was a nice touch. Everything meshed together well. Amazing work, my friend :D
Aww thanks! ^_^
I totally did not plan it to be a series, it kind of just happened that way XD
Glad you liked it so much :D
What's not too like? The next AER-verse stories have a tough road ahead, what with the bar being set high by this. Any work done with passion always turns out as masterpieces :D
Oh dear I'm doomed XD
Yup. You made your bed, now you have to lie in it my friend ;D
I'm 100% certain you'll do fine though :D
I'm glad someone has faith in me XD Useful for those times when I completely lose it ;D
That's what we're here for ;) I'm no stranger to losing faith in oneself, so I try to put my faith in others who deserve it.
