This was meant to be posted for #sakurathon last year (but I never finished it) so I decided to do it now 🌸 #rinharu

“O’ darling, what you see here is a cherry blossom tree.”

"Sakura Pool"

I'm terrible with titles but, it IS a pool with cherry blossoms, lol! And of course, it is my submission for this year's #sakurathon. Such a delight to still be into HaruRin!

#HaruRin #RinHaru

The destined meeting of the firey Rose and calm Cherry blossom Fairy!

Oi, Haru! I want to show you a sight you've never seen before.

#sakurathon #RinHaru

A digital sketch of Rin and Haru from Free! They are in shown from the shoulders up in casual clothes, with a blossoming cherry tree blurred in the background. Rin has a branch of cherry blossoms tucked behind his ear and is looking at Haru with an adoring expression, while Haru has his eyes closed and lips partly open as he leans in for a kiss.

"I want you to show me that sight again. I've forgotten what it was that I saw."

Sketch for #sakurathon! 🌸 This is one view that Rin will never get tired of seeing… Romantic, right?
