I seriously cannot get over how beautiful these characters you’ve created are, especially Berlin. So guess who I ended up drawing? ;)

I don’t think I ever got around to putting this on my K&B tumblr so I’m posting it here so I can reblog it there! Thank you so much for the fan art of Berlin!

Do Kaper and Berlin make cider with the apples they grow? That’d be super cute

You know I never thought of that before but yes, I’m declaring this canon now. Apple cider is the BEST. Like 10x crisper than apple juice.

Is Kaper’s dad the leader of the land him and everyone occupied before Kaper and Berlin helped bring peace to both lands?

In a sense! Before the two territories were merged, each side had its own leaders. In Berlin’s tribe, Berlin’s parents ruled indefinitely. However, in Kaper’s tribe, the people elected new leaders by vote every year for fairness. Kaper’s father, Pax, was elected several times over the years because he was a kind, knowledgable, and well-respected leader.

@crystallizedtwilight owns these two beauties and I just had to draw them. I’ve been trying to get out of an art block and I thought these two deserve it. So here is a quick piece of Kaper and Berlin. I absolutely love their designs and hope I did them justice.

LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS!! I am floored, everything about this is SO lovely–the lineart, the coloring, the POSES! I am very in love with this, thank you so much!

[crystallizedtwilight]

For the anon who said they liked Clairafield this morning, I colored that lineart from 2 years ago. Your message warmed my heart and I was inspired to finish it!

This beautiful fanart of Kaper is by bloodwrit. He looks so great in this style! Thank you so much, I love it!

Kaper: When was it that you realized you were in love with Berlin? That it was more than friendship?

Kaper fell in love with Berlin very early, but he was too young to know what that meant. He was just immediately fascinated with him and wanted to be around him as much as possible. There wasn’t so much a decisive moment as a culmination of many moments. Every moment. Every time they met Kaper found it harder to part with him at the end of the day. Around a year into their meetings he was certain of his feelings and 4 years in, he admitted it to him. Conversely, Berlin was in a constant state of panic because of his parents and couldn’t admit to his own feelings until that exact moment.

Has Kaper & Berlin ever have / adopted children together?

They don’t adopt any children themselves but they love to teach and mentor all the children of the tribe–everything from how to garden to how to be a good person. They’re like everyone’s second pair of dads!

[crystallizedtwilight]

As promised! Here are Kaper & Berlin once again, thank you all for asking about them. They’re doing great! Their apple orchard is massive now, and their tribe is six times the size it was after they publicly married. Everyone works together and helps each other. They show others daily that peace and love are not impossible dreams!

[kaperandberlin]

Have you ever considered a continuation of the Kaper and Berlin story? Or, even just occasional one-shots? I love seeing them, in any fashion! They were what first introduced me to your art, so long ago I honestly can't remember when, probably near the start of the comic!

Wow, thank you so much for being there from the very beginning! It always warms my heart and amazes me to no end that people have liked and/or connected with that story. Unfortunately, I don’t think I would write a continuation because I just can’t commit to it with my full time job, but I would have some interest in drawing one-shots from their past or present. 

I would LOVE to take suggestions from you and any others as to what you would like to see--questions about interactions in their youth, their marriage, and anything you would like to know I will consider drawing short one-shots. There’s a lot of things about them that I’m sure just lived in my brain and I never took the time to answer in comic form, so please if you would like anything illuminated let me know. Again, thank you so much for reading the comic and sticking with these characters for so long, it means so much.

Thank you so, so much! I absolutely adore this! You drew them so sweetly!

It’s been 8 years since Kaper & Berlin came to be!

Do you have music that inspires you while drawing or may be songs that you associate with this story?

What a thoughtful question! Actually, I really love to hear what songs other people associate with the story. One follower sent me the song secret wedding because she thought fit them well. I don’t listen to much music when drawing, mostly podcasts or movies. Do you have any songs you associate with this story? I’d love to hear them!
