Once in a while, I like to play around with my characters and make them younger or older. Then I thought, 'hey, it'd be kind of cool to feature the newer Keyholders in a story where they're all a little older' (like I did with my original Eternal Rain cast when I started working on all those sequels). So now I've got ideas cooking in my head for a collection of short Eternal Storm spin-off stories.

This is how Sora and Toshiro would probably look. I wanted to use some different colors for the boys' clothes, but the colors/details might change (especially on Toshiro--that's a little too blah for the cheery little guy). I think Sora wound up looking a little older than I intended, but overall, I like the result. What do you guys think?
