Prompt: Basch/Vaan: Guilt - "I can't"
A/N: Apologies for the lateness, I don't even have an excuse for it. I'm sorry.
This one is...different, style-wise. I actually really like it, like this.

I think the disjointed, wider-eyed style works for this picture, lends the whole thing a nightmarish quality. And as was said, WELL composed!

Th...the EYES OH GOD. So totally effective at being disturbing!

right under the part that the reflection shows, he's totally all bleeding and horror-movieesque, isn't he? oh god and now I need to go to bed and be haunted by woobie!eyed!Reks.... O_O

I love that we can't see Vaan's face, but Reks is looking with the huge eyes and the kicked-puppy expression, and how Basch looks like he hates himself and it's almost physically hurting him to do this. Just gorgeous. ♥

There's so much *feeling* in this.

Reks, who will always, always look *just like that*, and Basch's pain. Vaan has no idea what's going on, does he?

The purple makes me think of Basch's 'Fulminating Darkness' quickening. Guiiiiiiilt.

*sniiiiiiiff*

Nothing like a little misery and woe with breakfast. Eerie and fraught and *shiver*. Nicely done!

I so gasped out loud when I saw this, I admit it :| Followed, of course, by a very strong feeling of 'awwwwwww'. Really nicely done. So much emotion on Basch's and Rex's faces, but even more than that, there's an almost physical sensation of Basch pushing Vaan away, this really conveys that. Makes me want to see someone write a fic for this specific art :3

Poor Basch. -pets him- So much ill fate he sees in a face. In Vaan, Reks, in his own, Noah. D: Woe.

-snuggles- I too like the composition, and I like the purple strok-y background, kind of makes it dreamlike.

Oo, great expressions and body language. I love the style, too! I think it feels more alive in this style, a little sketchy with the pencils, than totally cleaned up and inked (all digital, I know, but I do digital too and I totally think the terms still apply as long as real media is what it looks like).

Wow, that looks really great. I really like the composition and the coloring style. It has a really cool fairy tale illustrated look to it.

Well, he ca-aan... he just. Doesn't. -shakes fist at canon- Why can't you have more pr0n! D:

You're welcome though. And yeah, I often have trouble making up something for backgrounds too. Generally try to avoid them. -is a bad Kuro-

Poor Basch!

I would swear Reks' eyes are always that wide, and I like that Basch doesn't seem to have his eyebrow scar yet in the mirror-image (though, hmm, Reks' eyes went really wide when 'Basch', ehm, and it is a mirror... and Vaan's Reks' brother...).

So... is it Gabranth-as-Basch in the mirror with Reks?
