Description I know I should say it more often to you than I say already, but its hard to accomplish when on is governed by their wisdom and lacking a heart...

But you lack one as well, and yet still manage to say those few words that matter the most to me, such a queer match that we happen to be.

I still remain silent, with this silly look of wonder upon my face, but you just smile, the riotous color upon your cheeks rising along with the sparkle I always desire to see within your silver eyes.

My sharp wits tell me to say what I've always wanted to say since the first moment I saw you, but I'm rendered dumb and mute as you lay your head against my shoulder with a soft crinkle of my straw the only sound I can actually hear, and you telling me to be quiet as the music you only seem to hear continues to lead us in this strange dance.

You know what I want to say, and perhaps you've already heard it though I have said nothing...

But it still remains... spoken or not... for now it is whimsy to say it in this moment... I don't know what I would do without you, you curious creature, my beautiful Scraps.

```````

Been working on this for a few days, went back to the old style of drawing it out on paper, retracing with the wacom and doing the fun task of coloring. Rather happy with the end result, though if I hear another person say "Awww" to it, it'll be too soon

Scarecrow and the Patchwork Girl, or Scraps, both from OZ and the wonderful writings of L. Frank Baum.

My Patchwork Girl of Oz. Walt Disney wanted to create an Oz movie. Rainbow Road to Oz. The Mouseketeers were supposed to star in it. Patchwork Girl & Scarecrow were the lead roles. Your drawing reminded me of the fact.

I pair her up with Professor H.M. Woggle-Bug, T.E.

Scraps and the Scarecrow rock!

I love their first meeting in The Patchwork Girl of Oz. It's such a cute little scene. It's so weird how few people actually know that The Wizard of Oz and Wicked! aren't the only Oz stories...

OMG. That is so amazing and lovely and oh wow, how beautiful. I love the Scraps and the Scarecrow pairing, and this picture definately defines their love. I honestly don't care for the Scraps and Jack pairing, I feel that the few who prefer that pairing like them together because it reminds them of TNBC. But sweet Lurline, this is such a pretty, lovely picture that I just adore.

Yep, book called Patchwork Girl of Oz, she does like Jack (gets mentioned in another book - can't remember which one and I'd have to reread them to find it.... which wouldn't be a bad idea actually....), but in the end went for Scarecrow.

They are cute, and this picture always makes me smile.
