Description “Look me in the eyes again. I need to see your voice, hear your face. Then the silence surrounds you and holds you.

Read your fingers, feel your heart stream strings,
Vibrations in-between, words, melodies dancing behind my eyes.

Eventually, eventually, we stop being strangers.”

♬---------------------------------------------------------------♬

Original Characters: Arion [top], Lien [bottom], from a comic-oneshot I'm working on at the moment, called "Enfilade"

Bits of info: Arion is a jazz-music cello player, who moved to town for his new job. Lien is a young watchmaker, who's hiding a secret; same secret hidden in the title's anagram.

"Enfilade" comes from a French word that means "to put on a string" [related to Arion's cello play].
In architecture, "enfilade" is a room arrangement, in which the doors of all rooms are aligned, providing a see-through-the-entire-building view [related to Lien's secret]

Original picture size: 3.1 x 2.4 inches
*love drawing small-scale~ Which I regret after scanning tho orz*
Might spoil all the story's info if I get impatient later on
The word's "Enfilade" perfect relation to the story was totally an accident!! I simply wanted to find an anagram to the title I had in mind after finishing the story~ And then I found out that this lovely word exists My vocabulary got enriched by 1 word
Sry for being inactive and not posting finished art ;v;
Of course this is going to be a Boys Love story. What else did you think?

My mind has many loooong project plans, but once I've read:

Short-term goals give you long-term satisfaction

I'm definitely that type orz. Long projects *like "The Cat who loved to Sing"* are difficult to focus on if you don't have the time,
so something short like this story should be fine for now I hope QvQ

Take care and if you have a cello *or any other instrument* give it some love and affection!!!

Enfilade? Mmm... You've got my attention with Lien's secret. I'll watch out for the pages

(PS: did you know that in French, 'lien' means 'link', suggesting a bond? Your Lien is a matchmaker and he's creating bonds between his clients to give them a love life... You chose his name very well, considering his job! XD)

Wuiii thanks so much!

Oh and yup! I know his name means "bond/link" but he's a Watchmaker!! Not a matchmaker!! He makes and repairs watches and clocks
*but your idea is interesting too *
Well if you rearrange the letters in his name, you'll get a word that can mean "a succession of notes forming a distinctive sequence/melody"~ This short story is actually just about music and stuff

Watchmaker? Oh, sorry! I guess I did a little mistake over the letters XD

But Time binds people too, in a sense. Everyone is linked to Time, so if he clocks the Time, he links people to it, no? And music needs time to be played successfully, in a sense. It's vague yet simple, but the names fit the characters all the same

It's ok

Oh that's a nice interpretation!
Thanks! I really choose names carefully XD *"Arion" means "Melody" actually *

'Melody'? heh, to think that when I saw the name 'Arion' the first time, it reminded me of singing 'Ariel' in The Little Mermaid, and now you go and say Arion means Melody, which is also the name of Ariel's daughter XD Strange, huh?

Yeah, it was a surprise for me but then I thought 'coincidences never happen without a purpose' so indeed, this story of yours got me curious...
