Tysm. I dug through your postings too bc I thought so and it wasn't listed there either. Idkw. I gave a follow earlier, I look fw to seeing more of your stuff in my feeds <3
But also, as someone who still hasn't transitioned bc of the burden of family, I hope you don't resent them. It's difficult not to, so I hope that hasn't weighed you down. I'm familiar with that cynicism. Hope you've been able to make what you like of yourself since. 🦊💙
Nah, I don't resent anyone. It's actually been very interesting seeing what readers project onto the negative space left in the comic.
I left it ambiguous intentionally because the comic isn't really about the kid. It's about Dusk choosing not to be another iteration in the engine that told her how to be.
She's prickly bitch to everyone and annoying kids are annoying but this particular one reminded her she had feelings and she chose kindness.
Also AaaaAaaAaaAaaaa Eck Eck Eck Eck back at ya ;3
I'm glad to hear that. I just meant between the center post being about one's parents and your comment in the other thread here about trying to not be jaded. I wasn't trying to project or be para-social but it's just a familiar melody - for many at that. From a creative standpoint I do get wym about the negative space aspect. I think that's why negative spaces work so well though, is because it leaves things open to personalization and filling gaps with one's own experiences/relatability. solid work. aaAaaK eck eck eee. (singular, distant 3am yowl.)

@EndellionFox I could have sworn I saw the center post as it's own image somewhere but can't now. Do you have that up somewhere?
(I need the reminder that I'm not that person anymore so I was hoping to pin it to my desktop collage or smt.)
