When you're sincere about doing something, you're stalked by the fear that there's no turning back.
-Inio Asano, Solanin
In my headcanon, lions have a lot of vanity and machismo bound up in their manes, in having all that masculine energy out there on display.
That weight doesn't sit right on everyone's shoulders, though, and sometimes people have to decide whether they're ready to shed it.
I commissioned this as a gift for a friend, a small affirmation since one of their characters has been mulling this theme for a while.
They're remaining nameless for now, for obvious reasons.
Thank you so very much to
drakkin and
enjoipandas for bringing it to life.

This is such a beautiful piece, I adore this. And the quote at the beginning really resonates with me! I'm often concerned about whether or not I'm making a mistake, because there is no going back at some point. But every step I take I get happier with my choice.
Change is scary, but its also exciting! Thank you for posting this <3

I keep coming back to that quote for all kinds of scary truths and new beginnings.
I'm happy to hear that it speaks to you, and that, you know, you're finding yourself. That's such an important part of your personal journey, and I think for most people there's a moment of "No, I have to do this. At least I have to try.
Happy Pride!
