Not much to say on this one, except we see a bit more of how the house is structured and their father no longer looks crazed with a fever. I kind of love his beard and I'm not sure why. His face in the bottom panel kind of reminds me of a smiling cat, I think.

I love all the different dimensions and angles we have here. It's just really beautiful. I also like how Beauty's not too somber, even before she sees her father. She's not rashly stumbling into her decision to go to the Beast's, although some concern does show through on her face. But the best part is how all of that disappears the second she sees her father is well. HE is the priority, not her own fears.

I just noticed on this re-read that this is the second time Beauty's been called "Little Duck". Not only is she the one with a special nickname, but I seem to recall a story about a little duck and a swan... ;)
