and I are entering 's "The Ship" with this collaboration, featuring Eirik and Ariya! With a little Scruffers tagging along~

drew the original lineart, which can be found here: [link]

Here is the colored version.

It was hilarious how we came up with this image idea - both of us looked at our characters, and both of us thought of Eirik carrying a disgruntled-looking Ariya on his back. As Momo mentioned, their age difference would seem to make a romantic interest between the two a little unlikely, but what with Eirik's love of children, we saw him treating Ariya as a child. Ariya, of course, isn't too excited about being treated like a child and getting carried around, but I think she still rather enjoys it secretly and just doesn't want to admit it.

I personally had a lot of fun coloring her lineart. Thanks dear!
