Monochrome Fantasy Noble Couple

Create a delicate monochrome pencil illustration in refined shoujo fantasy style showing a romantic aristocratic couple posed close together from the waist up. The woman, {argument name="female character" default="a gentle young noblewoman"}, stands on the left with long softly flowing dark hair, straight bangs, luminous large eyes, a calm faint smile, dangling diamond-shaped earrings, and an ornate high-neck lace dress with embroidered floral details and a jeweled brooch at the collar and waist. The man, {argument name="male character" default="a handsome young nobleman"}, stands on the right slightly behind her, taller, leaning close with his head near hers, sharp eyes, tousled medium-length dark hair, a composed serious expression, and a decorated military-inspired noble coat with a high collar, buttons, chains, shoulder ornaments, and gemstone-like insignia. Their shoulders touch and they look directly toward the viewer, creating an intimate rare moment of quiet eye contact and closeness. Use only black, graphite gray, and warm off-white paper tones, with extremely fine linework, soft cross-hatching, subtle smudged shading, detailed hair strands, sparkling eyes, and intricate costume ornamentation. Background: faint sketchy Gothic palace architecture with tall arched windows on the left and delicate climbing vines and floral tracery on the right, kept very pale so the couple remains the focus. Composition: vertical portrait, centered couple, elegant dreamy atmosphere, high detail, hand-drawn manga pencil sketch, no color, no text, no watermark.
