in comes the post-smooch clarity!

a natural concern that, maybe things are moving a little too fast. the thing about feelings is that, they don't wait for you to be ready for them! they strike when they please, and you just have to accommodate for them! the bastards...

ahem. but yes, the dialogue in this has gone through a little bit of an overhaul between the sketch and the final, which i feel better fits the tone i'm going for!

Magna's showing vulnerability! showing a concerned, and self-deprecating side that, we very rarely see! she feels almost, a little guilty, for taking Leo's first kiss, as if it was something she didn't deserve. She's a tough lady, but she's not made of stone. Deep down, she's a little bit of a hopeless romantic too, and puts a lot of weight into this sort of thing!

Thankfully, Leo's also a hopeless romantic. a DESPERATELY hopeless romantic, by comparison. He'll sweet talk a little confidence right back into her, by showing her just how much he's head over heels for her.

also also, i changed that middle panel to have Leo place his hands on Magna's! for a little added touch of sweetness~
