Description
It’s that odd time between Christmas and New Year’s celebrations.
Winter has covered the Pond in a white blanket. It’s quiet and perfect weather for a stroll.
Nolem is feeling quite content. He probably won’t be finding any buttons in the snow,
but he had a great Christmas with his dad and the other Mais.
There’s a nice big rock near the water, with a beautiful marble house on it and the adventurous Mais is on his way to check it out.
When he comes around the corner he stumbles upon two sunny coloured Mais who he hasn’t met before.
With some curiosity, Nolem struts forward to introduce his bashful self.
Sabrina seems to jump a little when she spots the caped Mais and her brother quickly steps forward in a protective stance.
Nolem isn’t too bothered by all this, he just pauses and grins.
‘Hi! My name is Nolem!’ he states proudly.
The bright yellow Mais frowns and opens her mouth.
‘No… them?’ she asks confused, glancing at her brother with questioning eyes.
But before Dimitri can reply, Nolem shakes his head, catching her attention.
‘It actually comes from “melon”, just backwards.’ he quickly adds.
‘Your name is Melon?’ Sabrina asks with a chuckle, confusing the caped Mais.
Dimitri gently nudges his sister and waits until she is watching.
‘It’s Nolem, with an L, like in lemon.’ the white Mais patiently explains.
Sabrina cocks her head a little.
‘No…lem?’ she tries.
Her brother nods in approval and at once Sabrina’s face lights up with a huge smile.
She turns towards the green, somewhat surprised Mais again.
‘Hello Nolem. My name is Sabrina.’ she cheerfully introduces herself.

Finally!
I've been wanting to draw this forever hahaha
You'd think winter makes for easy backgrounds... I don't like it, I hope it's Spring soon
It's like 12 degrees Celcius here, which is insanely warm (it should be below zero during this time of the year)
So I'm not really feeling the whole Winter thing...
Anyway I hope you guys like this and I hope the text is alright! (feel free to point out mistakes) ^^
Featuring;
Sabrina & Dimitri who belong to
And Nolem <3

What a cute story and "‘It actually comes from “melon”, just backwards.’ he quickly adds."
OMFG I never realised this. How epic!

Ah!
This is ADORABLE!
I knew you said you were going to draw him meeting them, but this is just so cute! And exactly how their meeting would go!
Look at how happy Sabrina is! She's so happy! ^^ And Dmitri! Haha! I don't know what I'd call that expression, but it fits with the little story!
And seriously though, the interaction in the story is spot on! She would misinterpret and ask if his name was Melon! xD I love that part!
Thank you so much for putting the time and effort into having them meet! It means a lot that you would do that! I'm sure they'll all become fast friends! ^^

You are so good at expressions! Every time a new piece from you comes out, I am always impressed with the expressions you manage to pull off!
This is wonderful by the way! ^^
And it's really warm for this time of year where I am too...normally we'd have a good five-six inches of snow and we barely got an inch yesterday before the rain washed it away. ):

Thank you so much for the kind words, they mean a lot to me
I really try to get the expressions right to make up or the lack of shadow and such ^^

I'm having a bit of a fight with the italic text
For some reason after I submit, the text puts a closing tag after the first sentence... all by itself...
Can anyone explain to me what is happening?? XD

I can easily see little Sabrina becoming fast friends with your button crusader Nolem. Also, Dimitri's expression is just excellent in this scenario. xD

If time does play nice with you at some point, I'd love to see this type of thing more in the future.
