I noticed something about Toms art. He has never once drawn a baby facing the observer always away with just a bit of hair showing. I have to wonder would this indicate that he has a hard time drawing babies or if its just an artistic choice to leave some mystery.
I would venture it’s the latter to some capacity, but largely how people typically hold babies. He has drawn children multiple times, including at least one I can think of depicting Human-Basitin Hybrids. But, whenever a parent or somebody is holding a baby, unless the baby is being intentionally held for, say, a family portrait, the baby will almost always be facing the person holding them.
In parrallel world theory this does exist! But what became of Flora?
Right? Was flora just condemned to a life of slavery since she was never rescued? Or was she forced into that marriage with scythe? Mike and Evels never freed from slavery? The assassin Twins forced to work off there debt with our local golden foxboy. Seems like Traces alternate happy ending was everyone else's bad ending. But maybe that's something to look at in life when we deal with bad things. Perhaps our perfect life would overall not be good for others. How can we ever know? Edit: Trace would likely still have had to lead a war vs the Keidren since the masks were forcing things that way as well regardless of weather he lost it psychologically like in the cannon timeline. Meaning this alternate timeline likely led to the total subjugation and possible gradual extermination of the Keidren. Trace seems unlikely to have gone to war with the bastions in this timeline much less tried to break there minds with magic. So a Human - Bastian Alliance is possible or perhaps more a likely Bastian Neutrality.
I'm a little disappointed that Very Vixen Gamer Mike didn't get a color slot, but this is such a wholesome image to take its place.
This is the good time line went trace not kill all other wolf tribe except natani family and Keith family Will not die on that good time line :)
Rose: Aaahh!!! You broke my finger you little...
Awww, cute! also, time for Good Morning Maid Stoney
Lovely
I never noticed Stony wearing a Maid outfit in the original.
It may not be Stoney, it were Trace's creations who wear maid outfit in the comic.
Cute :D
it is a great scene to witness and i do wonder how much of a difference there would be if this happened
Busy week for you Tom, but really nice to see this get done as well, it was very deserving of it.
This looks awesome
At least we can enjoy the moment. ☺️
That turkey looks even more appetizing in color, great work Tom! 😋
Very adorable, I wonder what the world would look like if this came true
Stony is such a hard worker. ^_^
What about the others? Friendships? Flora and trace?
Flora would still be just a child at this point.
Nora's about to cause a border dispute with that turkey...
very cute
Adorable
One can dream.
I imagine the child has blue hair and red eyes. The first of many Legacy kids.
Only if this was true
Trace: let me introduce you to my wife, our child, and my wife's girlfriend
Thank you so much for coloring this. I did not expect it at all. It turned out fantastic. Also, I don’t recall seeing Stoney in the original. I love it, and thank you again Tom!
Spectacular scene! The color and detail make it all the more beautiful and heartbreaking. To see what might have been...😭😭😭😭😭
This is sweet but I can't help but think Flora might have been killed/enslaved if not for trace losing his memory
One characters good timeline is another's bad timeline...in Floras "good" timeline Saria had to die and Trace go mad and commit Wolf barbecue and coup the Templars.
Este dibujo es hermoso, al fin Trace tiene un final feliz en esta línea temporal.
Sí, Trace está teniendo un final mucho más feliz en esta línea temporal. Luis: “This drawing is beautiful. At last, Trace gets a happy ending in this timeline.” Me: Yes, Trace is having a much happier ending in this timeline.
Trace and Saria were slightly disappointed when their child's first word was 'Awoo' but it was such a goshdarn adorable 'Awoo' that they found themselves not caring.
WHOLESOME!!!
Aaaa this is so heartwarming! Love this bonus so much!
A very bittersweet sketch, with what happens to them. They all look amazing and I'm glad this was the bonus along with gamer girl Mike! :)
I suppose Laura lives too. Not sure what happens with Natani.
Would Flora be a Maid in this Timeline or be Sythe's wife?
She would be dead, to put it plainly. If trace didn't stop Keith from striking her down in the first couple pages, she would be dead
Nora never stops being hungry
... and knows when everyone else is distracted!
Very bittersweet
Very cute! But in this timeline... What would've become of Flora? 😰
Well, she didn't seem to be having a hard time of it when she met Trace. Maybe she'd lead a more typical Kheidran life.
:D
My wife Roselyn is once again colored!
Omg Maid Stoney!!!
Babysitter Stoney, Nanny Rose!
