<i>I wanna be with you now
Let's shorten the distance with the two of us
We can still make it on time
We can start over
We can't be as one

I wanna be with you
Someday even this distance
We'll be able to embrace
We can start sooner
After all I wanna be with you</i>

I was inspired by the music video for Utada Hikaru's song "Final Distance" to make this piece. When I heard it, Shadow and Maria came into my mind instantly. I think it was perfect. I think I did a good job on my first time drawing Maria at all and without a reference.
