It started out as a feeling which then grew into a hope-

So I was listening to this very awesome song by Regina Spektor, 'The Call'.. Then I went and sat down at my desk to randomly doodle as I always do. And as nearly always I ended up drawing something from Queens Thief. This is what occured. I would have left the lyrics but my computer is acting very strange and won't do cuts properly right now, sorry about that. In fact, I apologize right now if this post turns out to be very strange. My computer is acting up.

Anything inspired by this song is wonderful!!

I love that lyric you used at the top. One of my favorite from the song!

Agh, but I gotta say...seeing them visually represented really reinforces that she's older than him, and sometimes--when I really think about it--it makes me feel a little squicky. I don't know why. I know couples in real life where the woman is older and it's fine. I think it's cause they call Gen a "child" or "boy" so much, and your drawings do a very good job of capturing his youth.

Sorry to have gone off on a tangent there; couldn't help myself.

That's okay, :)
Yes, they do call him boy and child a lot don't they?

That song!

Does anyone remember the Homer Price books by Robert McCloskey? And the story about the song that all the people in town start singing, and they can only get it out of their minds by passing it off to someone else? Well, that song is The Call by Regina Spektor. It's catchy. Literally.

I finally passed it off to peggy_2 last week, innocently sending it in an email and telling her YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG. Now that she has it, I've been much better.

The drawings are great!

You know, I can't seem to do lj cuts properly, either. Not sure what the problem is.
