"Could you all kindly shut your gobs?" Gene asks, "I'm trying to get some kip here."

B'awwwww! I love him for that! (on top of all the other things I love him for!)

"Oh yeah, brilliant idea that," Gene says. He slips into his least flattering impersonation of Sam, because he wants to get his point across and in his experience nothing's as successful as mockery. "'Gene, Gene, let's climb that mountain, it looks really wicked and I bet I could get some amazing photos!'" He replies in his own voice. "'Bugger, I think I've dislocated a hip.'"

B'AWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my fucking god, I love these two! I love you for making these particular versions of these two, although the 'Changes' series is certainly not your only moment of brilliance, only your most recent... but as you point out yourself, you've done things with this that you had never really achieved before.

Standing in the departure lounge, Gene doesn't know what to do with his hands. He constantly wants to reach out and hold Sam, but he won't.

That is a particularly vulnerable moment; so vulnerable that I did instantly want to draw it.

Thank you ♥

If you ever do want to draw Gene kissing Sam's head in the departure lounge, I won't say no :D
