A Moral Dilemma

This piece is a slight spoof on the occasional Looney Tunes piece where a character with a serious moral decision to make would suddenly have an angel poof up on one shoulder and a devil on the other. The idea struck me as amusing for several ironic reasons. The sentinel in the picture is dead, and thus cannot make any decisions, and even if it could the Sentinels have no conscience. Both Nightcrawler and Angel are mutants, and thus would normally stay as far away from Sentinels as possible, yet here they are actually on top of one. In the traditional pictures the angel would offer the noble advice while the devil would offer the self-serving advice, but in the case of these characters it would be more likely to be the other way around.

This picture was actually spawned by a fanfic I wrote, though it is not complete and shows no signs of being completed.
