I'm in love.

Ouch, poor Crowley. And that glare! Love the floating feather!

[use-theforce-em.livejournal.com]

That... is exactly what I needed today. I shrieked. Loud enough to make my flatmates wonder what was wrong with me.

And Aziraphale is skating with his umbrella. Of course he is. It helps him balance, that's why he's still standing up. XD And the background is made of wintery happiness. And scarves!!! And Crowley's face. I want to cuddle him forever because he's about five years old in this picture, as he should be. Windswept cowlick and all. I... just.... *loves you madly, darling*

Aw, Crowley looks so petulant! And I almost missed Aziraphale's umbrella, the cheater. ;-)

[musegaarid.livejournal.com]

This is darling. Although I'm betting the glare is more because Crowley is wearing that scarf than because he fell. Er. XD

AWWWW! I love Crowley's jacket and pointy little skates! And that GLARE!

Fabulous!

[miscellanny.livejournal.com]

Oh well that's just ridiculously adorable. I love it so much. :D

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

wait???? something that Crowley doesn't excel at? I love it!

This is so wonderfully sweet. I want to know what happens next - after Crowley grudgingly accepts Aziraphale's hand...

... as long as it leads to warm eggnog and naughty sex, of course.

This is, of course, utterly brilliant.

Where to begin? The wintry background is a bit sentimental, and gorgeous (you rock that blending, honey). I love the little touches, like the awesome scarves and Aziraphale's umbrella (I am really enjoying the image of him skating with it . . . almost want to try drawing that, actually). But honestly? The thing that really got me from the minute I clicked was Crowley's splayed-open pose.

Mmmm. Oh man. And he looks so petulant! Just wonderful. Bravo!

What a great start to the exchange. Man, now I get to be excited about every day this month (and have something to distract me from my yuletide panic).

This is lovely. Crowley's expression is too perfect, and I love the trees in the background and the feather.

[ajodasso.livejournal.com]

Crowley's expression is completely priceless ;)

[sanomi.livejournal.com]

Eyecatching! Very cute and adorable. The background is dreamy and beautiful, and I really like the bits of foxfire floating in the air. Gives it an ever-so-slightly holy feel. Which Crowley's sprawled pose then dispells. X3 So pouty! And Aziraphale's tartan scarf is love.

And I have to agree with musegaarid, that the only reason Crowley's wearing that scarf is because the angel made him. ^_^

Bravo! Encore! Standing ovation!

[archon-mentha.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely fantastic!

[amberdiceless.livejournal.com]

*Squees!*

[argyleheir.livejournal.com]

Oh, but that's wonderful! I love their exchanged glances -- Aziraphale's at once knowing and patient and Crowley just seeps petulance. He'll get that angel later, to be sure... ;)

[froggie.livejournal.com]

This is both beautifully drawn and absolutely adorable. I'm completely in love with the way you drew Crowley. He'sgotthecutestlittledemonbutt. *_*

dls;jf;ksdasdal;s I am so in love with this picture, I can barely breathe.

*_*

Crowley's FACE. And his hair. And crooked sunglasses. And Aziraphale's s;ldkfsd umbrella. And the slight suggestion of the space where wings would be, behind Crowley, and the buildings you can just see in the distance, and the colours, and *keyboardsmashes happily*.

I want to surgically remove all the sucky bits from winter and replace them with this image, and the fuzzy feelings it generates.

[sophistry]

AND I JUST NOTICED. DOES AZIRAPHALE HAVE THE ENDS OF HIS TROUSERS TUCKED IN?

*seriously just. dies of love*

[celandineb.livejournal.com]

Too, too cute! *loves*

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

My gosh, that's adorable. The faces and the eyes, and the *hands*... Of course, Crowley propping his bottom off the ice is just too cute. ^_^

[snarkyperson.livejournal.com]

So beautiful! The background is simply enchanting, and as everyone else, I just adore Crowley's petulant face.

[danie-go-boom.livejournal.com]

I love the colors <3

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*plenty of cuggles* ♥ In the small version it looks sort of silly, though. Remember to click your way to the original-sized one!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Sometimes snake-like agility can be a disadvantage. ;) I'm still thrilled you noticed the scared-out-of-mind feather! He wouldn't try to balance with his wings if he thought potential people were present, but panic can do odd things.

*cuddles, even. Haven't slept much. *sheepish*
