Fun facts about this page, both artistic and personal. When working on this comic, I learned a new trick for how to enunciate particular expressions by varying how I present teeth. It's fascinating how the presence or absence of individual teeth can impact an expression. The absence of it can soften an expression whilst the opposite can harden one, at least that's been my experience using it. It's an interesting trick.
Personally, I remember struggling a tad when I first started writing this comic. Rosabelle is a kind and empathetic character, and I worked with RosebudSlut to make sure the writing was always on point. The thing I struggled with was writing Rosabelle's kindness directed towards myself. I have an inherit problem being nice to myself, instinctually putting myself down, doubting myself and insulting myself on the regular. The biggest challenge was accepting the idea that, "there's a lot of people out there who want the best for you." I kept asking myself, "Are there though? Bold of me to assume that people care about me that much." Eventually, I thought, "I need to let someone be kind to me, it's okay."
I couldn't have imagined the response to coming out as transfem. There really are a lot of people who want the best for me, caring about me, accepting me, and even considering me a friend. You all really touched my heart, and you've really helped me feel like I do matter, that my feelings are important and I can, if anywhere, be myself here. Thank you again.
Also unrelated, but being called girl, girlie or Miss Jackson has been so affirming, it's made me unreasonably happy. It's even affected my own self referential dialect, I called myself a, "sleepy little girlie" the other day when I wanted to take a nap, heh.
