You know, I'm usually not this slow at things, but I had to look over the panels a few times before I 'got' what the story was. (must be that I just got up..)
but, OMG so moving! It made me sad, but happy at the same time. All the detail you put into this piece is amazing. And their hands! wow!
I don't think I've ever seen your art before, but I'm a big fan now :)
