all the best cowboys have daddy issues [Rut&Amicus]
June 16, 2012 - 4:23pm — Rutilus
He sat beside his sleeping son, gazing down at the soft, golden pelt that neither he nor the fawn's mother possessed. Guilt churned his stomach, a swarm of flies, buzzing and nipping at him, persistent. Amicus thought of his family, both families, the double-life he'd decided to lead, the lie. How many times had he invented stories to tell his wife and son, stories about his travels and adventures, when in reality he was wandering the earth with another doe, and another son?
The golden fawn stirred and nuzzled into his father's fur, content, oblivious, and Amicus felt his heart wrench. He loved Rutilus. He loved Enya. He loved Apollo, and he loved Lyra. There would come a day where he would have to choose between them, but how?

PAHA shitty art and even worse writing today |: it was quick. and god dammit guys I am not an artist and I use touchpad but it had to be drawn because beberut.
Shitty? HA WRONG! I don't
And that picture is adorable, the fawn looks so cute with him sleeping with his mouth open. For some reason I'm totally loving the way you colored the stag's chest fur, too. And the stags worried expression = win..!
