Just Outside (Patreon)

"Listen, yeah? I know I said we'd take this outside, but there's... no need for things to turn violent, yeah?"More than a dozen eyes glared up at her and Gwen shifted in her stance, half from the growing embers of premonition in her stomach, and half from simply being unsteady on her feet. She made a valiant attempt at puffing out her chest with the aid of a deep breath, and, after giving herself a few seconds to make sure she wasn't going to fall on her face, gingerly planted her hands on her wide hips."You've got the info I need, and I think I've got something you need."Judging by the hunger in the eyes, she wasn't wrong. While she remained wholly unsure as to whether it was the alcohol speaking, or if this was just her natural, first line of approach, the consideration alone wasn't enough to stop her at any point. She arched her back in a mock stretching motion and all but felt their gazes roam her - a cheeky smile spreading on her lips as she, carefully, relaxed down on her soles again."I think we can come to some other kind of agreement. Yeah?"As it turned out, they did.-----Angle 1:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/cheapsophisticatedbettongAngle 2:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/rustyobedientkingletAngle 3:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/dualpowerfulstudAngle 4:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/sleepywhitesmokewoodborerAngle 5:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/bumpyquickdormouseAngle 6:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/motionlessnecessarymalamuteAngle 7:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/draftytepideskimodogAngle 8:https://www.redgifs.com/watch/weightysnarlinganemonecrabDownloads:EDIT (sound, small file size, sony vegas edited)Compilation (all EDIT angles compiled into one video clip)RAW (no sound, large file size, raw render)-----It's Gwen's time with the alley gobbos owing to the Alley Crew vote! Pretty happy with how this one turned out, all things considered - lots of small animation details required just to make the piece look passable, so I hope you enjoy it :)Thank you, as always, for your continued support and for all of your kind words! January's been pretty manageable so far, oscillating cold and heat considered, so I hope you're facing similarly mild weathers. Sometimes "bland" isn't so bad after you've been freezing your nose off or been baked in the sun. It can come as a moment of stillness, in a manner of speaking, that can be seized upon for some rest.Take care of yourselves, and each other!/DH
