Description
"They are cruel not only to us, but to their own kind as well." - Seven, from Seventh RingThis will be a scene from later on in the story, I believe. I'd made the sketch first, then decided to try out SAI for inking after several recommendations from some fellow artists. And of course, I got carried away when I wanted to throw some flat colors in. SAI, btw, is a marvelous program for inking that I plan to use from now on for digital work! Believe it or not, all the inking was done using a mouse. :3
Also, the lyrics to the song below were the main inspiration behind the sketch. I listened to it throughout the entire process! I'm a music whore and cannot create without having headphones on, what can I say.

"We're In This Together," - NIN
(Listen to it here! )
I've become impossible
Holding on to when
When everything seemed to matter more
The two of us
All used and beaten up
Watching fate as it flows
Down the path we have chose
You and me
We're in this together now
None of them can stop us now
We will make it through somehow
You and me
If the world should break in two
Until the very end of me
Until the very end of you
Awake to the sound as they peel apart the skin
They pick and they pull
Trying to get their fingers in
Well they've got to kill what we've found
Well they've got to hate what we fear
Well they've got to make it go away
Well they've got to make it disappear
The farther I fall, I'm beside you
As lost as I get, I will find you
The deeper the wound, I'm inside you
For ever and ever I'm a part of
You and me
We're in this together now
None of them can stop us now
We will make it through somehow
You and me
If the world should break in two
Until the very end of me
Until the very end of you
All that we were is gone, we have to hold on
All that we were is gone, we have to hold on
When all our hope is gone, we have to hold on
All that we were is gone, but we can hold on
You and me
We're in this together now
None of them can stop us now
We will make it through somehow
You and me
Even after everything
You're the queen and I'm the king
Nothing else means anything

I really hope William gets a lesson in pain in the future of this story. >

I haven't decided yet for sure if this will indeed happen in the story, but I'm leaning towards YES. I was going to wait to upload it until it happened, but...I just couldn't. XD I like it a lot, and any art I can share now, I'd like to. Besides, you don't know who did it, why it happened, or how the hell Seven is about to deal with it. So...I'M NOT SPOILING TOO MUCH. -tries to justify-
And I WILL have the next chapter done soon, it just isn't long enough yet! D:

If you like how the story turns out, do you think that you would try to make a mini comic for it?

I was just thinking about this recently, actually. XD I've been wanting to get into comics, and this story would surely be a challenge to translate into art, but man would I love to draw out all these scenes for people to see. If there's enough interest by the time I finish writing, I might seriously consider it!

Glad you like it! And I'm glad you noticed his eyes, as they are actually quite important in the story. I'll have to explain more when the time is right, but thanks for letting me know you noticed them!
