Happy Birthday Deare blurb (I think it’s called that idk.)

Cover art: (posting it twice so it doesn’t take up the whole screen lmao)

Happy birthday Deare is a 70 page comic about a young boy Deare! It’s his birthday and his friends set up a scavenger hunt in the woods he lives in. You meet a lot of his friends as he goes from place to place helping his friends with something to get a hint to the next location to go to.

As the story progresses you learn a little more about Deare and why he acts some of the ways he does, and about some of his friends (and even some hints to later comics ;) )

If I had to age rate it I think it’d be pg13 at MOST. I tried to write/draw it like a children’s book but it is supposed to be creepy at parts and there’s a page or two with some gore. And I guess some descriptions are scary and a character looks scary and that’s all I can think of to mention

I’ve been writing it since around the middle of September in 2023 but I had the characters thought out a bit before that. I’m still working on it and I’m hoping to get it finished by April? I am one person working on it and I have other things to do and “school” so it might take longer.

I may get it published, idk how that works but my mom said that she’d help and she knows someone who can do publish things so until I get more info abt that that’s all we know for now

Hope you enjoy the little snippets and drawings I post of the process :)

I just finished rereading Slider's oneshot and I loved it just as much as I always do. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on how the conversation between Ice and Cougar went at Ice's retirement ceremony. You gave us little snippets of it from Slider's point of view, but I'd love to hear more of it if you have thoughts on it you'd like to share.

this is such a kind ask. i have no idea

for the same reason there is no explicit reaction in ch 12 when ice first hears mav say i love you—i spent a good week low key trying to figure out whether a reaction was needed there—it’s such a potent powerful cocktail of so many wild & unfamiliar emotions that i don’t personally think i have the literary juice to even attempt to try to describe it

i also am allergic to writing ice or mav explicitly coming out to anyone because it gives me secondhand embarrassment for them. the idea of the commander of the pacific fleet having to psych himself up to awkwardly mumble “um i should’ve told you all this time … i think i…i think im gay” to his friend gives me the ick sorry he’s not fifteen years old. so he Could be doing the big lgbt rite of passage of emotionally apologizing and coming out to Cougar in that conversation. but he Could Also be doing the ‘im nearly sixty years old im not gonna bullshit you’ thing of simply saying: “you and I have been very shitty to each other in the past and i apologize for that in x,y,z way and you were right about me and maverick and we’re gonna make it official this summer and if you want to come we’d really love to have you & normalize diplomatic relations between us again, you’re a real great friend when you’re not being a massive fucking douche”

i think something that is important to me to remember is that there are small ways i can do things to spark joy for myself and others without waiting for someone else to do it... (conjures up little sparklies from my hands) life is so whimsical!!!

im not able to word this right but idk I think it's nice how it's possible to hold so much love for someone even when you haven't spoken in years and aren't really connected any more and like, it can sometimes be a little bittersweet but if you can accept that you've both grown and changed and the relationship is just no longer there and that's fine you stop missing what you had and get to a point where you're just genuinely happy for them and its neat
