Oh my goodness Alby the loooooooove. The bemused love in that look! Totally nailed it. I really like this style, too, where you don't completely blend everything so we can see all the different colours making up their skin, how the light hits it, and the little stray scribble lines. It's like their alive-ness is showing, vibrating the air between them, like POE STAHP YOU ARE GETTING ALL THE MOLECULES EXCITED and FINN YOUR FEELINGS ARE DISPLACING THE VERY AIR AROUND YOU. Or, er, that's what I see. Anyways - IT'S LOVELY <3

Yesssss, because Finn's like dude, you look like you just rolled out of bed. My bed. With me. Which you totally did :DDDD
Yeah, I'm trying to be less "finished" and more intuitive. Or something? Idek. I'm just trying, okay? THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUU ♥ ♥ ♥

Ooh, gosh, hmm, yes, this is nice. I love the way you capture different body types. You make them ALL so appealing. There's such warmth in here, as always, and some lovely affectionate tension, and the primping and the shaving is really rather lovely also. And hair. I think you must make regular sacrifices to the Gods of Amazing Hair? Keep doing it!

You I will, nothing can stop me from giving everyone all the hairstyles nobody knew they wanted because they didn't! I do love a bit of morning routine stuff too! And shaving. And Finn :D <333
