"Lingering"
Key illustration
"I looked into your eyes, and all I saw was my own weakness. And your sapphire eyes saw everything— Crystal clear.
I just wanted to be stronger. To be worthy of your love. To protect you. Like you protected me.
Can you… Can you grant me your strength… One last time? …"
The first new key illustration in a while, I can't talk about too many specifics for this one from a story perspective. Just know there's a lot of reasons for the composition that translate to metaphors of their place in the story.
Since my other pieces from this line used either blue or pink undertones, I figured these two are removed enough from their connections to merit their own unique look.
