Ten Thousand Lightning Bugs

Owl City wrote:Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread


I didn't start this drawing with the 'firefly' idea, originally it was just a fox admiring the sunset. However as my drawing session was coming to a close i started listening to Owl Cities "Fireflies" and i was inspired to add in fireflies to the picture and i feel like it really transformed the picture and gave it a story.

I want to see what stories you can come up with based on this drawing, just for fun. Just a little writing topic if you want! If i find one i really like i may stick it in the description here (I will credit you of course).

Thanks for checking out my drawing,
Tearose

EDIT - Thanks for the "popular this week" title! It really does mean a lot!

I will not be online or submitting drawings nearly as much anymore due to school starting and my life becoming very busy. Commissions will likely be closed for a while too. Sorry!
