Argue with me if you want, but I think we'd all love to see her in the main AU again, like a revival or something.

I have this as a preset for my background

Thanks for spoiling the atmosphere. =/

I just listened to dreamer by Europe. I now understand how Laura fels, waiting for Keith to come back.
The weird thing about following Tom's non-canon sketches is that Laura feels a lot more present than she actually is in the universe. I'm not convinced she is forgotten though.

Tom, You made me cry my eyes out with this. I had no idea this would hit so close to home for me.

Be grateful it wasn't the cheese ;)

When I see her standing on the shore like this, I kind of hear the lyrics from Katyusha (even though Katyusha is near the river bank... but... close enough).

Dude, this is really good. With the colors and the landscape, it actually makes the place look beautiful. Nice job

Europe - the Dreamer (with some changes) She is down by the riverside Late one night She's tryin' to count the stars In each of the signs All alone by the riverside And time passes by Gathering thoughts of the past And maybe she'll cry So they say she's a mad female And she don't understand But I know that she's tryin' hard To act like a female All those years she has suffered, my friends All those years of pain But I don't think she knows for sure If those years were in vain She's a dreamer And she's fightin' for her life She's tryin' to understand She's a dreamer But she wants to carry on Yet I know she's a lonely female

This looks beautiful. It’s sad knowing how it turns out though. <br><br> I guess she’s also alone in the color now, since that paw isn’t on the edge in this one

A beautiful and somber piece. Had I ever been able to acquire a Nora card myself, this was my first choice.

Beautiful and heartbreaking, Laura was faithful to a fault.

This might be your most beautiful drawing yet, Tom. Feelings overloaded. The Laura story arc managed to reduce me to a sobbing mess twice over.

The beauty of this peacefully bittersweet illustration is that this could be any waiting situation at all. This could easily be anyone waiting for their lover or consort to escort them someplace.

Tom, it's too early for feels.

Lovely, and puts a different spin on "Loch Lomond" what as the lovely lass has already set foot on th' low road.

Uhh, how about this... Her death cast her away. Not just from life, but from love, even memory too. She was forgotten. She now roams the lands of the people who were, hoping that one day, she will meet the love of her life again.

I know i'm late, but lemme think of something poetic.

Could you imagine a Seymore ending?

At least she did get to see her fiance one last time.

So Beautiful

Cool drawing, Tom.

She is beautiful, as always.
...and so, every ten years, Davy Keith is allowed to leave his ship, the Flying Basitin, to spend a single night in the embrace of his love. But Laura has sworn to stay faithful and will look out for him, once the time draws close - no matter how many years have to pass...
