Lioness Saria and Rose - Portrait

She is indeed. Whats Clear is that there both taken to each other. The word mistress gave that away a long time ago

I've always been that way ever since a few years after adolescence. I'm now im nearing the ability to be a genetics researcher in synbio interested in human specific regions and so I'm not in a dark place. But I am a realist, and I'm not that entertained by Humans that way or any way anymore and cannot really love a partner either if there are just a boring human being. Work is where things work and is what's most important. The current reality is that everything is broken in several known ways, so priority must be taken on figuring out what comes after humans. See the link, why i chose the synbio field? The fact is that current trends don't look good to say the least for humans...but that doesn't bother me becuase i cant control the inevitable. You see getting upset or not upset at somoething is a personal choice and if something offers no utilty its invisible. FYI the energy issues can alone be sufficient for billions to perish. So welcome to the age of consequences. May engineered animals rise into a interspecies union

Jesus, man. That's some heavy shit. You really need to talk to someone, this kind of outlook isn't healthy.

Yeah well it's pretty impossible these these days to form that kind if friends. Its either work related interaction or just a frenzy of infatuation that lasts weeks at most from first sight and then nothing for years and years. Thats basically the totality of human interactions. There used to the days when that could happen with other humans but are long lost now, this is much better and prettier place to be. I'd happily be Trace in the present.

Oh damn, I just kept posting this request out of habit since I haven't had any good ideas in a while. Still, great execution Tom, even if the reaction is a bit different than what I was expecting. Thank you!

Hard to tell in canon. Trace loved Saria, and I'm sure she loved him, but it's probably good Trace loved Saria so much that he was willing to back down on some things. Don't want to know what would happen if he made Saria choose between him and Rose...

Did they hear him when he said 'nude'? ... They don't care do they...

Tell me you've never had amazing friends ever, Without telling me you've never had amazing friends ever.

Awww, Eric doesn't get a tag?

You know you've hit the mark as an artist on depicting a beautiful friendship when a few people start projecting romance fantasies on them. XD

This is pretty normal for platonic women and their besties. I've known plenty straight as an arrow women who are like this.

AetherSprite224

I agree

Trollman906

Hope so!!!

I really enjoy seeing the characters who got the short end of the stick in the actual comic living their best lives and enjoying happy moments like this in these sketches. ♥ I give it 6★ out of 5 and a wholesome-rating of 120%

If this was a hollywood film, they'd be labelled "totally heterosexual life partners"

I have the feeling the paintings will be in the next weekly commissions.

Another diabetes inducing sketch that Tom has knocked out of the park, congrats Iago24!
