I was reading through some old fanfiction earlier and this is one of the scenes I ended up drawing. It's part of SFKitty's story Lady Mihawk over on fanfiction.net. It hasn't been updated in over two years, but it is still high on my favorites for some reason. I re-read it and was laughing, since some of it is pretty OOC.

This is a kind-of scenario I've envisioned for the four "friends" when they're young. Mihawk is twenty, the girl he's sucking the face off of (Jackie the OC) is eighteen and Ben and Shanks are both nineteen. It was difficult to draw the two snogging in the back, but probably more difficult to draw Ben. ^_^'

I have already uploaded this to deviantART, only moments before coming here. I had inked and colored it... but filtering the color to sepia kinda hides my inability to color... period.
