Summer of 1944

I will probably scrap this later, but I like it a lot at the moment so I thought I'd share.

Normally I'm a die-hard Snape fan, but lately Tom Riddle Jr. has snaked his way into my heart. I have a hard time believing that a handsome, charming young man like himself wouldn't have had tons of girls falling all over themselves to be with him. Besides, I can't imagine Tom not enjoying manipulating the hearts of young women.

So here he is with my character, Josephine La-Faye, enjoying the seaside the summer before their seventh year. I'm working on a story about them, but knowing me I probably won't finish it.

By the way, does anyone have tips for scanning pencil drawings? Mine always turn out super light and when I go to edit them in Photoshop the contrast turns out wonky.

Tom Riddle belongs to J.K. Rowling, only Josephine is mine.

Critique welcome.
