Description Excerpt from the Clack fan-fiction "Malady", written by *LagunaNoJutsu . Can be found here: [link]

~~~~~~~~Malady, Chapter 8: Color of Existence~~*
"I thought SOLDIERs weren't supposed to cry," the blond whispered, his angelic face reflecting the moonlight from the side, causing his blond hair to illuminate white and glow with a soft sheen of purity.

I thought angels weren't supposed to cry either, he thought in reply, their eyes flickering back and forth on each other.

Zack reached up with a hand to the back of Cloud's head, running his fingers through his hair. He pulled his head close, resting their foreheads against each other as his breath quickened in his chest.

Cloud let him do this, his lids fluttering closed as their skin connected.

"It's okay, only if we cry together, Cloud." He nodded, reassuring himself and the boy. "There's nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to be afraid of right now, here with me."

Cloud nodded back, their noses rubbing against each other.

For

It's probably my favorite chapter so far 8D Hee. Especially with the bit that comes right after!

As for the piece itself...weeellll:
I have no experience with night-scenes, so excuse my shoddy coloring please Its at the top of my list of "techniques to learn/improve".
AND this is probably the first picture where I'm finally satisfied with both Zack and Cloud (I never ever draw them right. Even now Cloud's hair looks like Roxas. Gag.)

Anatomy and porportions are for losers (i.e. really good artists who are not me. Not yet, anyway.)

(A fun thought - This fanart is for a fan-fiction of a game. So which category am I supposed to put it in? lol... that's why it's in "Misc")

I especially like Cloud in this piece, his expression is awesome and I love the way you tinted his hair so he still looks blond!

OH HOLY SHI--! O_O;;; I was just going through my messages right now and then all the sudden THIS appears as a new deviation and I think my heart stopped in my fracking chest!!! *faints*

*three days go by until she comes back from euphoria*

Whuthappenedzomg...?

*sees it and faints again*

*three more days*

...htjkhtkwlahgwejtbw

Okay. I think I'm over the initial shock.

It's so funny because I saw the title and stared at it for a few moments and thought to myself "Malady...Color of Existence...why does that sound so familiar...?" I think that's what shocked me the most. You didn't even mention you were drawing anything!!

BUT zomg!!! This is beautiful!!! I was secretly wishing that someone would draw this one day (lord knows I couldn't pull it off) and you did!!!

They look so amazing too!! LOVE Zack's hair!! And the tears...! You did a great job on the night scene too! It's exactly how I pictured it all to look...! Thank you so much, my friend!!

It made me very happy! I was having a crappy day so far and then I saw that...the only reason why I didn't squeal my head off like a maniac was because I was in such a state of shock for a good five minutes or so. I had NO IDEA you were working on anything!! Thank you so, so much!! Gonna spread the love everywhere I can. Teehee...!
