Description EDIT: New Version: [link]

" 'Alanna' he whispered, 'I'm takin' advantage of you now, because I may never catch you with your hands full again.' He kissed her softly and carefully. Alanna trembled, too shocked to do anything but let it happen.
'There.' George released her. 'Think over what I said about love.'
'Pigs might fly,' she snapped, her voice shaking. 'I should have stabbed you!'
He chuckled infuriatingly. 'No. I won't let you stab me and ruin our friendship. Will you be afraid to face me after this?'
Alanna felt herself turning beet red. This was too much! 'I'm not afraid of no one, George Cooper,' she yelled. 'Especially not you!'
'Until next time, then.' He saluted her and headed back down to the city, whistling."
Page 45 in "In the Hand of the Goddess" Book 2 in The Song of the Lioness series by Tamora Pierce

I love it, except their mouths are a little to open. Β It looks like they are eating eachother, if that makes sense.

You draw hands...SO beautifully! And I love George's expression! He's a jokey kind of character but here he's a bit more 3-dimensional.
Overall it's a gorgeous drawing!

im actually rly glad they ended up 2gether. jon kinda got me pissed off in his "oh-im-a-noble" act in woman who rides like a man. sides, george liked her first, and liked her before she wore dresses. and hes all humble and stuff, and super-thief-slick

I love that scene. George is one of my favorite male characters {Numair, Nawat, Briar and Niko being the others}.I was so happy when she finally got together with George instead of Jon. Jon was ok in the first bit of the series but then afterward his character really started to get on my nerves.

Me too i always thought that Jon was a little haughty and to me he just seemed like a player ya know, i don't think he really cared for Alanna the way George did

[link] theres my interp of Tris!! lol

I know I dont have the last 2 of Wild Magic yet, or like any of the Circle of Magic books, and I'm missing Trickster's Queen, lolBut I read the Wild Magic books first just because they had horses on them lol So i was like in love with Numair and Daine as a couple until i finally read The Song of the Lioness and then became like ubsessed over George, idk i never really liked Johnathan he always seemed like a player to me. But when I read Trickster's Choice and read about Nawat I just thought Numair ya know lol

lol yea george was my fav guy when i first read all the books, jon was kinda ok but he became an ass towards the end for me. omg i fell in love with nawat hes hilarious. he reminds me a lot of george.. they both nice guys with humor, and theyre always trying so hard to get the girl. i think numair is pretty cool too though, i liked him a lot when i read the immortals. have you read the magic circle ones? are they as good as the other books? when i read the protector of the small i wasnt that into them. i dont think they really compare to alanna, daine and aly. but that mite have been cause it didnt have as much romance. im such a sucker for romance. and i also love all the magic in them

blindthistle In reply to heroinezombie [2009-01-27 14:58:25 +0000 UTC]

dito here!! especially about the protector of the small i got oober pissed when she didnt hook up with Neal!! but no i havn't read the cirlce of magic ones i kinda skirted them when i was reading all the Tamora Pierce books, but I did read the Will of the Empress and I fell in love with Tris and Briar they're amazing! but ya i recomend reading Will of the Empress first because evidently the rest of the Circle of Magic books are about how all of them are orphens and they are taken in my Sandry (thread witch) who is about the same age as all of them and then each individual on their "journey" to adult hood and then they meet back up at the end, so to tell the truth i said screw trying to read each one and just read the Will of the Empress and just had fun piecing all of their stories together from that.

seriously! neal was one of the characters that i really liked in that book. lol yea i tried reading one of the circle magic books once but it seemed sooooo boring. i mite just do like you said and skip to the will of the empress. i know eventually ill go back and read the circle books. i wanna read all of tamora pierces books. i never really liked teen books but i couldnt help but fall in love with hers. lol i think the people who read her books never stop loving them. when i looked up fanart for her here everyone mentions how they reread her books, and they still loved them even as they got older.

me too, but i havn't read beka cooper either i tried but i just couldnt get into it lol

some other good ones i like thrived on were; Garth Nix's Sabriel/Lirael/Abhorsen trilogy, Mariane Curley's books are amazing too( ALL of them), Robin McKinley books are awsome too if your into like Arthur and his knights time period I loved his rendition of Sleeping Beauty (Spindle's End) and Beauty and the Beast (Beauty), and Poison by Chris Wooding is AMAZING seriously i've read it a million times lol, and I just got finished reading Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr and its pretty good lol

omg sabriel was awesome. my friend kept shoving it in my face, i eventually just sat down and read it. then i started reading abhorsen and got really confused, then my friend informed me that its the third not second. lol so i gotta go and read lirael then read abhorsen. i havent heard of those other authors. i think stories in the middle evil times are awesome. and im a sucker for romances >< im gonna have to remember those names, ive been in need of some new reading material
