Riding a boat isn't normally a comfortable experience for a firelizard... But the invitation of Oddwarg's two characters, Seismo and Lupa, was quite a friendly gesture, and I did trust them dearly... The step into the boat would be a bit tense, hopping over water that could be quite dangerous to me... But I had a steady hand of a friend to grab hold of. I reached out, slowly feeling better about joining them on a cruise through the waters. It would be quite refreshing, after all - and quite meaningful too! n..n
This was a birthday gift drawn up just this morning by Oddwarg, a great friend who I've had many an enjoyable conversation with. ^^ Rarely do I discuss real-lives with other people, but for some reason I truly enjoy that subject when I speak to Oddwarg.
Oddwarg owns a boat irl, and it is his home as well. =3 The boat in this picture that I'm being invited onto is indeed based on his real vessel, which adds an extra layer of meaning and kindness into this picture, I feel. <3
Thank you again, friend! ^^
