I love their faces & how you did their outfits, great work with the fur (I'm so lazy with it myself orz)... the lines look great, too! Also loving the blue shades, amplifies all the feels in the picture I think *u*
The tenderness between them is tearing me apaaaaaart (in a good way)
hnnngh <3

... sometimes I feel silly fangirling so hard over my own characters

ANYWAY. Simply, purely - WOW. Thanks so much! Deffo will come back for more Pollo art <3

Does this picture have a backstory?

Yes and no? xD
I basically gave Pollo a few ideas and she got to run with whichever she felt most inspiring c:

But basically, they love each other but are both bit stubborn at admitting it, and after admitting it, she doesn't want to have a relationship because sometimes she considers herself as a monster (and does at times transform into one)... plus she is a hothead, and often says things she instantly regrets, so even though she cares for him deeply, there are times she feels she needs to apologise... like in this picture >w>

"Monster" like on the picture, or more monstrous?

more monstrous

Well, to stop worrying she needs to give him some means of protection. Like rings of fire resistance or AC+10 :)

Thanks for the explanation.
