    it is dna we share as well as a womb while developing… i think we must have started collaborating back then… our parents should be so proud! haha!

  • mimi yoon replied

    hey~ speaking of collaborating…. are we ever going to?
    just curious… no pressure… i don’t want you to go away again… i’ll miss you too much…

  • scott allison

    we will! i am just bad at getting on things in a timely fashion. i did a drawing of a phone and then HATED it and used housepaint to cover it and then drew a tree on the paper… you can sort of see a phone under it… one day, i will surprise you and pop up with something for you :)
    i will not go away. my life had just gotten crazy for a while there. i did miss you too while i was in la-la land…
    we are pretty great aren’t we? haha!

  • mimi yoon replied
