Description Set just after season 10 episode 12, when Carolina returns from York's grave. There is an accompanying fanfic piece, which can be found here: link
I messed around with some brushes for the background, and although I'm still not happy with how it looks it looks like I took a bunch of Halo 1 screenshots and pasted them together it's certainly an improvement on what it would have looked like otherwise.

Sometimes the worst of the best and the second best are all that's left.

I love how the sunset is reflected in their visors

Thanks
I'm ridiculously proud of that. Visors are a lot of fun to colour, but takes me so long. And SO MANY LAYERS.

I always love your art, and the fic was sweet too.

I read it with my Yorkalina-tinted glasses, and couldn't help but laugh at Wash's comment at messing up by calling her 'Lina. He is the absolute worst at talking women.

And just a comment on the technique of the writing, that final line was prue brilliance. Maybe because of said Yorkalina-tinted glasses I wasn't really reading it as Washalina, but that final line was deeper and darker than I had been expecting and the overall effect was impressive.

*blushes* You're too kind!
I ship Yorkalina so, so much. They have such a tragic story, tinged with the tenderness they've shown for one another. I love me some star-crossed lovers.

You claim it looks lame, yet to me, It is bloody awesome! Very nice work. What I see here, I'm surprised that Rooster Teeth did do this. Great Job!

Thank you
I tend to judge myself fairly harshly, I know it's good for my first attempt. Ah well, practice leads to improvement! I'll get better as I go along.
