[pic is finished and posted on August 25, 2012]

"indeed, he is truly my dad,
he smiles at me."

...so, erm, one thing: when I said that this is finished, it's actually not. -face-palm- and I'm serious on this being not completely finished. I'm really sorry for that. -slapped-

well, to explain a bit, the yellow rope-like thing is supposed to be the string of a locket and the locket itself is planned to be drawn under the bottom of this pic, but then I got sort of depressed with how the background of the part where the locket is drawn turns out -I did some experiments and completely messed up soon after, short to say- and cut it until it becomes like this instead. -look down-

and yeah, that part -that I decided not to include- is also what makes this pic got delayed for so long; for six months, to be more exact. I'm really sorry... -face-palm- it would probably already be finished around March or April if I weren't so hard-headed to try to fix that unused background, so... yeah... again, sorry for the wait you have to go through. :'3 -melt-

in the end, I hope you like this pic -cause otherwise I'll feel so bad for not only being a procrastinator but also for giving out a horrible prize; melt again-. heh. thank you for your patience and kindness. -sob-

and almost forgot, extra disclaimer to shoka herself for the story behind this drawing -so you can say that this is a fanart for the fanfic she wrote-. it surely is a touching one in my opinion and I did have a great time reading it in the past. heh.

last words, thank you so much for viewing this, everyone -and again, I hope you like it, shoka; now I sound pushy, haha; ah, and congratulations too upon winning!; forgot that; stomped-. hope tonight will be a nice night for all of us. :)
