In an early draft, Amanda deliberately refused to bring Keisha along since it was her biological mom reclaiming her and not an adoption. I feel like Amanda is closer to Keisha than anyone else and wouldn't deliberately reject or deny her, but she'd still much rather not share her new life if given a choice.
There was a point in the early drafts where Keisha was so hurt by not being taken along, she did a heel-turn into villain territory. About 3/4 through the Truck arc I started thinking, "Christ, do I really want this revenge theme to keep being a thing?"
Was going to use the standard cartoony hearts instead of the anatomical-ish one, but I thought that looked like it suggested Valentines Day, romance and etc. I like this approach more for conveying that pounding behind the ribcage.
I get motion-sick if I try to read anything in moving vehicles, but my solution isn’t pinching my nose. It’s to nap through every road trip.
Wanted a second line in the last panel for a punchline but (1) I think it would've detracted from the scene a bit and (2) the best thing I could come up with was something-something "If you're a cop, you have to tell me or it's illegal".
Keisha's love for dancing is something that's on her cast page entry but hasn't been showed in the strip yet. Glad I got the chance to show her revelry.
Tina last appeared in Strip #114, then-unnamed. Selkie114 – – – – – I’m going to have to move Selkie to a new webhost in the near future. Just a heads up in case any hiccups occur.
George Sandy Wu Tony Ricky Hamud Moonsong Zeri and Mikella are part of the crowd in Panel 1, but I'm not going to tag them because they're too small to discern with any clarity.
Some work ahead of her. —– Fanart Sharing Day! Bill from The Far Side of Utopia sent this cute portrait of Todd and Selkie: Thanks, Bill!
A line of trimmed dialogue I didn't have room for: Andi: I wanted to make things right with her, but I didn't realize how MUCH there was to make right...
