Whatever I Did, I'm Sorry

Four years after leaving Song realizes just how badly he hurt Mansa...

Whatever I Did, I'm Sorry

Comments

This hurts EVEN MORE now that we've seen the moment just before it and read musegnome's wonderful fic AHHHHHH!!!!!

Ashfae

This picture haunts me. I'm so desperate to learn more about their circumstances by this point and how they come back together. Ahhhh.

Ashfae

I want to know so much more about that 4 years!

Kat Holtz

He was successful in a way! And no he did not work as a courtesan during those four years!

Whiteley Foster

Was Song at least successful in his studies? And he's still wearing his usual outfit - did he continue work as a courtesan during this time as well? (I hope that awful voice in his head isn't trying to say anything smart to him during this moment, it's already sad enough >:T)

yorick

That’s the breakup song! πŸ˜…

Whiteley Foster

So I was out on a lovely run and Spotify was playing the mansong playlist and "whatever I did I'm sorry" came on THE EMOTIONAL DISTRESS I HAVE SUFFERED WHITELEY

Unashamedly-enthusiastic

😒

Razaica

Not really, perhaps his grandmother but he tends to bottle things up

Whiteley Foster

Where is the story that they are getting back together? I'm so curious about them 😁πŸ₯°

Pierce

I have a question. Did Mansa have anyone to help him, emotionally, after Song left? Like a good friend(s) to support him and be there for him? I presume Song had his sister and brother-in-law...

Razaica

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh nooooooooooooooooooo I just realized Mansa is wearing SOng's RIIIIIIIIIING

M03M03

Oh man this hurts me but also I live for this story and these characters, I love them so.

M03M03

I kept looking at this all day today it is so sad and so beautiful!

Ariana Lipman

owww 😭 it hurts so good

Glissando365

OMPantheon!

Michelle Hurzeler

This piece is so beautiful. I love them so much!

Natasha Cooper

So Song is still wearing the "taken" jewelry, which *we* know means he's been pining all this time...but I imagine Mansa did not. It occurs to me that when he first sees Song, he sees that Song is taken. The utter heartbreak until that's cleared up.

Holly

AUGH!!! I'm desperate to know how they come back together, and the conversation that leads to this moment, and what happens after, and honestly all of it.

Ashfae

@Bobla Blubb β€” As fun a word as hermaphrodite is, I think the proper term is intersex. 😘

Ana

In relationships under as much stress from society IT HAPPENS. Trust me, I’ve lived through it. No matter how much you love someone and want to be with them, leaving them is an act of love, however confused and misguided it is.

Ana

Wait so they broke up but still talked? That hurts

Tarek Giver of Cookies

Oh that makes me even sadder

Tarek Giver of Cookies

He waited! He didn’t know if Song would come back at all but he couldn’t bare the thought to committing to someone else

Whiteley Foster

I just looked at this again this morning and cried again

Tarek Giver of Cookies

My question is did Mansa get married while Song was gone or did he wait?

EsmeGlass

Oh this pictures breaks my heart - such gorgeous detail, such heartbreaking emotion that leaps off the page...

Ariana Lipman

Full length story? FULL LENGTH STORY?? WHITELEY ARE YOU TRULY GOING TO GIVE US THAT GIFT???? 😭❀️

Ash S.

Saw this this morning when I woke up and I've been speechless for the last 6 hours.... I cant stop thinking about this. Such a gorgeous print, and the emotions are so intense...

Em (8)

This is still on my mind, it’s amazing

Mimsynims

😭

Alex Booer

No I think it’s just the angle of his head 😊

Whiteley Foster

Just taking with mansa

Whiteley Foster

Not the first time they’ve seen each other but the first time they open up!

Whiteley Foster

4 years?! *cries* My heart --> </3

Vala

Oh this is amazing! By which I mean it took my heart and stomped on it for a bit. I love how much Song seems to have matured between the break-up and this moment, his face and ears are so expressive. Also, horn jewellery and ring 😭 Would love to see their reunion and journey to forgiveness.

Mika A.

Also don't mind me crying my eyes out because Song still wears his jewels in the horn and Mansa still has the ring he gave to SongπŸ’”

Marta

Oh god this hits hard... is this the first time they see each other again? Will they get back together after this?

Marta

ooooh darlings 😭 yes, Mansa, you can cry now, let it all out πŸ₯Ί Song wearing his horn jewelry and Mansa wearing the ring on his neck through all these years, one wanting to grow, to be a better version of himself for another, and another just wanting the love of his life back, for all the pain to never happen, both hurt so badly and not forgetting about the other even for a minute πŸ˜” the way they hold each other so strong and close to not lose again just shattered my heart and glued it back together again, to imagine all the sleepless nights Mansa spent blaming himself, returning again and again to that evening, to everything he said and done then and before, to really understand that Song thought of himself to be so insignificant and unworthy after 10 years that he thought he didn't hurt Mansa so deeply leaving or that it would be worth it after all, oh darlings... at least they get another chance and are probably now smarter and more mature to learn to talk and start a healing conversation πŸ˜”β€οΈ this is beautiful, Whiteley, and it's so deeply touching, such strong emotions in just one art 😭❀️❀️❀️

sick_pineapple

This is probably the best pic I have seen of these 2. Considering how many great ones there are is massive. They look older, the emotion captured brilliantly, the symbols of their affection still worn showing they will never move on. Also... Thus broke my heart this morning. It's masterful.

NGK

😭😭😭

Nichole Hayden

same 😭

Planetary System

it's ok, i didn't need my heart anyway πŸ’” truthfully though, i adore these two and any content of them you give us πŸ’š

Planetary System

Oh my heart πŸ’”β€οΈ This is so emotional in several ways, I absolutely love it! And while I do think Song did it the wrong way, maybe he needed to β€œgrow up” on his own... Thank you for this!

Mimsynims

This is amazingly, heartbreakingly beautiful. Just...wow. So powerful. And the details! Mansa wearing the ring on a chain. Song’s horn jewelry. Perfect.

Sweet Pea

This is one of my favourite pieces now!! The pose, the intimacy, the pain πŸ‘πŸ‘ Song's protective tail and sad ears, even the title got me right in the heart. I can't wait for more story with these two.

Lyubi

Oh this is so beautiful, even if it makes me cry

Linda

And mansa's wearing his riiiiiiinng 😭😭😭

Unashamedly-enthusiastic

He's πŸ₯Ί still πŸ₯² wearing 😒 his 😭 taken 😭 chaaaarrmm 😭

Unashamedly-enthusiastic

Hope so much pain for four long years is finally worth it. Is Mansa going to forgive Song easily? I don't know what would I do in his situation, to be honest

cs_patri

Yeeeeeees! So infernals and human can get a child together and a male being is able to give birth?

Angela Antis

Oh Jesus.... That's amazing. Couldn't we get that as Print this month? I really love it.

Angela Antis

Ditto. *sob*

Merideth Ivy

Oh my, this is heartbreaking. The light is amazing

Ameline-SD

It makes me angry, but it also makes me sad how deeply insecure Song is to think this was the better choice for Mansa. I mean he must have truly thought this would make Mansa happier! At least in the long run.

Luci

This is intense

Samara Lilly (Sandra)

Well this broke my soul a little bit... okay... it broke a lot.

Gabriella Clegg

What brings Song to the realisation that he shouldn't have left? Also this hit me hard in the feels.

Rachel Thorpe

How cruel of him not to consider what that unilateral decision to disappear would do to Mansa. That's pretty close to unforgivable Whiteley. It was selfish. Why am I so angry at a fictional creation of your imagination??? Argh.

Stacey Hopwood

Oh dear lord....

Sarah Marino

How did he not realize for four whole years!? He knew Mansa loves him. πŸ˜­πŸ’”

Atelerix

*Sobbing* 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Atelerix

Oh, my heart! It hurts!! πŸ˜­πŸ’”πŸ˜­ But I'm also SO relieved it's only 4 years! I was so worried it was gonna be, like 10!! Oh, these two are gonna need to do some rebuilding...but they'll get there. πŸ˜­πŸ’˜

Razaica

So when Song left, he had a plan about improving himself, he wanted to study, and perhaps felt a bit optimistic about that - while Mansa fell totally apart, heartbroken, and ended up drinking himself into a stupor every night, until he finally managed to pull himself up enough to take that promotion? Is that an approximate idea of how the Leaving affected each of them? Will you be giving us some flashbacks of how they reacted and handled the sudden breakup?

Bobla Blubb

Aww, babies :(((

Annie

Mansa’s hair looks short- did he shave when Song left?

Amy Diane Short

Also.... *actual sobbing* 😭 Poor Mansa with the ring around his neck taking all the blame like it's his fault!!

Sintina Soeburn

I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I will write to this point!!!!

Sintina Soeburn

Oh... is it β€˜Angst Before Bed Tuesday’ again? I was unaware... 😭😭😭😭😭❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️

JillianVolts

This is four years after Song leaves Mansa, in the story they’ve just come back into each other’s lives

Whiteley Foster

Of course we wanna see their baby! But then I need to ask - is Song a hermaphrodite?

Bobla Blubb

Where are they currently in their story? Are they together and married? Is this four years later in the future?

HeatherWray.bean

Ow, my heart!!

Holly Handel

πŸ’”πŸ˜­πŸ’”

rippingoffmyface

Just rip my heart out!!! 😭😭😭

AelishLuna

Oh babes! I am so invested in them! I love them soooooo much!

MysteriouslySilver

Poor boys!! I love how the ring is such a small detail, but its so prominent too!! I hope Song holds Mansa until all his tears are dry, and then some.

Hannah Barnes

WHAT?!? No! What is happening?

Velvet Minefield

Oh..... Shit. SHIT. shit. This is the good stuff right here

Neil K.

Song started studying to be a celestial scholar and mansa... got drunk for a whiiile, and eventually took that promotion!

Whiteley Foster

Omg noooooo! I mean, I'm super happy that they get back together but FOUR YEARS???

Avalon

I felt this to my soul. πŸ₯Ί

Jessica Grim Woods

Agreeing with everyone saying it: I had a literal, physical reaction to this pic!

Denise Grogan

How did they each spend that time?? Also break my heart why dontcha!?!?

rev02a

There was a physical reaction in the pit of my stomach to this image. πŸ₯Ί

AJ

OH IT’S FINE I didn’t need my heart, nope not at all.

Gabriel Wolfe

Song's still wearing the chain on his horn, and Mansa is wearing the engagement ring he gave to Song on a necklace. If anyone needs me, I'll be on the floor sobbing.

Susan B.

Bless them. This is so moving. You can feel their anguish coming off the page.

Sherly Cakes

YAAASSS ❀️❀️❀️

Ineffable Penguin

A THOUSAND TIMES YES!!!

AJ

Do we really need to answer that? OF COURSE!!!!

Rhelana1 .

WOW IT’S BREAK MY HEART O’CLOCK HUH 😭

Dis

Smiling and crying at the same timeπŸ˜­πŸ’” And I still think that was cruel to leave Mansa like that. I can't even imagine the morning when he found a ring. His heart must be broken πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” I'd go crazy if I was him

BigBadCat

So full of comfort as the hurt is slowly being quelled. I'm so looking forward to the reunion, however long that may be.

Janica Buenconsejo

This broke me....my heart...dammit...

TheeeDJSiren

The happiest! Want me to draw their baby?

Whiteley Foster

The reunion will be the opening of their full length story! Consider the comics I’ve been feeding you the Cold Open 😊

Whiteley Foster

O MY GOD NO

Potassium

Oh please give these two a happy ever after. I love them and am so invested!

SH

The whole time! His plan was always to come back a devil that mansa could be proud of

Whiteley Foster

Ughhh my heartttt PLEASE tell me these two get a happy ending! I can’t bear the idea of them being so sad!!

Ineffable Penguin

Wow I love them

Ande

So I didn't need my heart. Ouch! Such good artwork but it HURTS!

Birdy

Oh ouch.. did Song wear his horn jewellery the whole 4 years?

Emma Atkinson

Looks like someone chose violence today

Bre

FOUR YEARS!!!???

Zari

Oh it’s so sad and soft and these two πŸ’™πŸ’”πŸ˜­

Caspian

Madeline Blackham
