We’re moving on!
This page includes a larger-than-average bug with lots of legs, if that’s something that bothers you.

I forgot how much fun shadows are.
Our protagonists will be moving on next page, promise. In the meantime, there’s a brief description of imperialist violence as they get ready. In this setting, some people live a very long time, and others don’t. Some memories linger.

This page and the next one were originally one rather crowded page. I decided to split it up to give these thoughts some more room.
To that end, I also didn’t put in any backgrounds to speak of on this page. If it ends up being too empty or too confusing, I will add some in on the next draft.

If you were a fictional samurai (or a fictional knight or some such), and you’d been only around other fictional samurai your whole life, other people might find you very strange.

On a journey with a caterpillar egg, a can-do attitude, and the world’s most depressed man. What could go wrong?

Almost two thirds of the way done with this first volume!
Our friends here will be moving along shortly, I promise. (For me, drawing two pages a week, it feels like we’ve been in this tent for a month and a half).

Sometimes life gives you lemons. Sometimes, life gives you a mortally wounded man suffering from multiple layers of crushing PTSD, all while you’ve got your own problems.

A little late, but it’s still Tuesday, so here we are!
I’m having so much fun with expressions and body language. There’s so much to show! I wouldn’t claim to be good at it (I’m not that good at body language in real life, much less drawing. I voluntarily wore a mask longer than I was required to when I was a barista in 2020/2021 because it meant I didn’t have to worry about what customers thought about my thinking face).
Also, I don’t know what the light’s doing, I’ll fix it next draft.

It’s exposition time!
Pacing is really challenging for me here, because for me, Ichiro has been naked under a blanket for over a month, and it really should be time for him to put some clothes on. For someone reading the comic all the way through, it would take a few minutes to read a month’s worth of work.
This is why I need reader feedback. Comments are open! I promise I don’t bite.
