Response to Nevanoon's Picture Challenge

Yes, it's emotional, but sometimes the shoe fits.  Besides, I wanted to kind of write this from Sean's POV. 

 

The Picture Never Lies by Ashlyn K. Toliver

 

Sean’s sightless eyes forever stared beyond Viggo’s presence.  The picture was painted a few days ago, just before they both walked away from what could have been either the heaven of belonging or the hell of others condemning their love.  But the picture never lies, and Sean’s frozen gaze, in that intimate moment of shared candor between him and Viggo, speaks volumes.  Those eyes cannot see Viggo sitting dejectedly along an opposite wall, head down, small tears falling like drops in a chaos theory.  Those eyes spoke of hope, love, and redemption.

Thank you so much. I just wanted to see if I could do this. And everyone seems to think it's Sean's fault for Viggo's tears, but I always say it takes two to make a relationship or in this case, break one...

I have to say, even when a break-up is mutual, and both have accepted the change, it can still upset them and cause tears. I don't blame Sean for his tears, I am sure there were reasons. Maybe you could expand the story sometime. :) I still like it.

I may someday, even I want to know what did this to my favourite duo.

I know - poor Sean and poor Viggo. This was just something that came to mind suddenly, but it may become a bigger story someday.

This is not "just a little drabble", this is definitely a work of art.

I must not tell you that motifs like "eyes", "picture", "gaze", and "tears" at last, appeal to me since I'm mostly a "visual" being.
Eyes are means of perception and realization, but they also may refuse to realize. But they always "mirror" the soul.

(Does that make sense? It's difficult for me to explain it in English, I should write it down in German and ask Anne to translate it, if you are interested)

Hi sis, nevanoon already told me how impressed she was by your work. I´m proud of you! And impressed of you each time! Which reminds me that I still have a wish free and that you´ll probably impress me a lot, then...

[thevixenne.livejournal.com]

LOL...yes, indeed you still have that wish free and after CP, you can collect. And your praise means a great deal to me, sweetie.

Hi nevanoon - thank you so much for your incredible manips that inspire me and so many others. What you did for Caravaggio's Painting is breathtaking. And don't worry about your English, which honestly is better than you think. I understand your meaning perfectly - and this was an emotional drabble, something I just felt inside.
