Cheer up, Yoko!

Story written by the commissioner.
Black and White version: fav.me/d8yw4dv

Yoko found herself quite distraught following Kamina's unexpected death at the hands of the beastman general Thymilph. A newcomer to the Gurren Brigade notices this and expressed worry and sympathy to the mourning sharpshooter. 

"I've got something that'll definitely make you smile." The mysterious girl insisted.

Yoko could use as many friends and smiles as she could get, so she accepted the offer, despite the exact nature being unknown to her.

When the pair of ladies found themselves alone in Yoko's quarters the girl was encouraged out of her boots and stockings. While it seemed a bit odd Yoko was put at ease when she felt the stranger girl's fingers and thumbs massaging the bare soles.
Though it hadn't been a physically demanding day, this girl knew what she was doing, clearly.

As Yoko began to relax, the girl slipped an interesting object from the pocket of her shorts. A long and luxurious feather. She tested the waters by twiddling the tip of the feather on Yoko's heel. This caused Yoko to immediately recoil her foot in confusion.

"Uhh, what're you doing?" Yoko asked.

"Heheh, tickling you." The girl replied with a blush. "It'll cheer you up, and you might even enjoy it." She reasoned, coaxing the bare foot back onto the edge of the bed.

Yoko was perplexed by the blunt answer. She figured she'd humor this girl for a little while, seeing as she'd shown her a great deal of kindness. The strange mixture of enjoyment and mild torture was apparent in Yoko's laughter that soon filled the room as the soft fibers found their way around every inch of her soles.

The mysterious girl mused that this might be the start of a beautiful friendship</span>

Commission for , who asked for a black and white sketch of the lovely Yoko Litner from the amazing series "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann", having her feet tickled by an OC who wants to cheer her up after "something" that happens in the series that lets her down.

Fun facts:
-TTGL is my second ever favourite anime series, so I can't believe I haven't thought about drawing its characters sooner.
-Why two versions? Because the commissioner, even if he asked for black and white, I gave it a faint colour anyway.
-As always, since the commissioner did the story a slight reduction in the price was offered.
