It’s always a gamble when it comes to birthday pictures.  What’s she going to draw for me?  I mean, at this point, it’s expected to be something from the NaNo we’re about to do.  But what’s it gonna be?  Can I hope against hope that it’ll be another chibi picture of all the main couples?  Maybe?  Probably not?

But the best thing about doing a rewrite is being able to do a redraw!  And to make matters even more awesome, considering Gatekeeper is a rewrite of a rewrite, we can redraw the redraws!  Which is even more fun!  And awesome. 

Thank being said…well, screw it, let’s go back to that point.  I mean, the first picture, at the time, was awesome.  The second picture, at the time, was awesome.  This picture (at this time) is epic.  Look at it!  It’s gorgeous .  I’m glad it’s a very simple picture, because you’d be setting the standard high, girl.  I mean…ugh, I can’t stop looking at it.  It’s so prettiful. 

(Don’t worry about the lines.  I actually like the lines.  It adds an unexpected texture to it that makes it look even more interesting.)

I am curious, though, if you freehanded all the little details, or if you did this (or just the background) on the computer and then printed it out?  Because everything looks so perfect in the background that it makes me wonder a bit. 

Ugh, Persey, why’d ya have to be so pretty here.  I need to look away or else I’ll get sucked into it.  Which isn’t a bad thing, I don’t think.

Anyway, I’ll stop rambling before I really start repeating myself.  Thank you very, very much for this!  I wanna do something with it, but…I’ll stick to staring at it until I can figure out what that something is.
