Age differences are hot. ♥ Excellent work, dear.

[squirrel_tamer]

Thanks. I'm a fan of age gaps myself.

[heron_advocate]

Yes. And in a way, Arnold/Helga kind feels like it should have an age difference. Because Helga is all bitter and cynical, and Arnold is naive and optimistic. :3

The angst is beautiful! I love the expression on Helga's face in the last panel. GREAT job!

[squirrel_tamer]

I am such a sap sometimes. Also, this comic was kind of a pain to do, but Helga's face at the last panel made up for it all. I really just love that shot of her.

Wow, beautiful! And what an imaginative twist on AU, the age difference. It makes total sense to me :D

[squirrel_tamer]

Glad you like! I really like messing around with simple things for AUs. Ages and Gender rather than time or place.

The song fit awesomely well too...<333

[squirrel_tamer]

Thanks! It was fun to do (also a bit of a pain, because I was really rushing).

I'm super fond of the song too.

Gorgeous art! :D I always love your colors and lines... and dialogue... and slight AU's that always make complete sense somehow. ^_^
