Description This is my alter ego, Rajiv (bottom left, striped) and my friend Dale (top right), having a bit of an argument.

This is actually kinda symbolic for me.
I try to beat Dale down in my mind, trying to focus on his flaws, trying to make my heart shut the hell up,
but it doesn't work. I like him a lot.
So, in this picture, the brave, powerful, take-no-crap part of me is showing him who's boss.
I just keep telling myself to not give in to my infatuation, because I don't think I can trust him. But, idk.

Also! I wish I could have done some more dynamic shading and better coloring. And I see a lot of flaws. But I still like it! ^^

Here's some fitting lyrics and music for you!

Original Sketch for this drawing --> [link]

Stand Up by TRAPT (to see the video on youtube, click here --> [link] )

Why don't you let me be
Leave me alone
You start a fire inside that i could never control
You wanna see a reaction

Come on and cut me doubt
You've gone as far as i'll go
Now you're crossing the line
And i am letting you know
Well here's your reaction

(Chorus)
Stand up
I have had enough
Walk away before i finish what you started
Face to face i will push you in your place
End this game before i finish what you started
Face to face everything will change


You planted the seed
How my anger has grown
Got an feeling inside that i can't seem to control
You wanna see a reaction

Come on and cut me doubt
You've gone as far as i'll go
Now you're crossing the line and i am letting you know
Well here's your reaction

(chorus)

Insult
After insult [9x]

(chorus)

Walk away
Everthing will change
End this game
You wanna see a reaction
You wanna see a reaction
Stand up

Damn this is frightingly close to the final climacs in my story...although there are other wolves ofc

Again with the soul of a picture. If you've read that one comment you probably understand what I'm talking about here. Otherwise I suggest you go and find that one

Love almost everything save the lackage of some form of dramatical BG which could spice it up even further.
