I've been sitting on a variation of this idea for a few days now...This is my entry for 's Disney/non-Disney couple challenge. The basic premise was choose a song from an animated Disney movie, or various others, as listed for the available choices or by suggestion. Then, once you've chosen your song, draw your fan character with their chosen canon character, your original characters, or your favorite couple.

The song I chose, as the title promptly displays, was the corny "Let Me Be Your Wings" from Thumbelina: [link] . The same day I was thinking about how to work with this song, my otaku buddy (he shall remain anonymous) randomly posts an interesting tidbit on my Facebook wall: "The Funimation dub portrays Crona as a guy...Crona's actually a girl." I know I'm probably taking a bit of a risk going with Kid and Crona instead of my OTP Soul and Maka, or what would be more appropriate for the challenge my seldomly drawn fan characters Config and Serenity. But...I regret nothing!

I felt like making something really happy and corny...And this sappy sap sap is making me smile. These two characters have such a rough time, especially poor Crona. Why can't I draw them smiling and enjoying each other's company? In my opinion, they'd probably relate to each other pretty well. Nobody's perfect, but finding someone with similar quirks to you can potentially lend itself to both growing and improving as individuals, due to having someone to share with, confide in, and draw strength from. And, it fits. The point of the corny song is that being in love is like having wings and taking flight.

Okay...Narrative description done and out of the way, enjoy!

I've been slowly warming up to the idea of these two together...They're insanely adorable! X3 As bad as it sounds, I like the idea of how Kid or Crona would react to having a crush or being lovestruck, hehe.

Thank you! ^^

It took me awhile to warm up to it also, when I first got into Soul Eater that is. But now, this is my OTP.

You're welcome!!~

Thank you so much! cX It was fun trying to come up with something that would mesh with your challenge and stand out in its' own way amongst the other really happy, romantic pieces. I hope you host another similar challenge at some point!

I thought Crona was a boy.

Ah well, wonderful art otherwise!

Nope, Crona's a girl in the manga...It was a discrepancy with dubbing in the anime, I believe.

Thank you! c:

Aah. See that makes it much more clear.

And no problem, glad to see another fan of Soul Eater around the corner! Haha.

I consider this awesome and off the wall. Also... Crona's a girl? Uh. My world is on its ear...

Thank you!

I was surprised too; I'd been assuming that he was an effeminate male! I even hate to admit it, but Crona's gender is something I've discussed various times with the group I hang out with, especially my otaku buddy. I guess he got curious enough he found the decisive evidence to end such a ridiculous debate.
