Fantastic! I especially love the tension at the end of the second image! Katya and Ash are definitely concerned!

Bobbie

I'm not sure there is a lot that they could do about it. Maybe they could set up a group therapy setting, like have the four of them sit in chairs in a circle and talk about their feelings, and the source of their animosity towards each other. I'm a little too busy right now to do a post like that, but hoping someone else has the time and might be willing to do it.

panos

naah, things are clearly defined in that matter: Amalia & Stargazer, Oksana & Wu Ming. No, the problem here is this: Two Alpha Females in a group is one too many 🙂

panos

Yeah... somehow I don't think that worls for vampires... I don't know about medics... 😄😄(I'll do a post with SG & Amalia later today)

JMN

ooooooooooooooooh Now THAT is how you crank up the tension. Those last four slides are gold, Panos.😉👌

panos

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, those two seem like they'll never get along... 🙂

panos

Thank you very much, jmn. ...🙂There IS some kind of... uhhh, friction here...

panos

panos
