About Me
Hello! I'm Heather, and I'm a 23-year-old majoring in Anthropology and French. I've been drawing nearly every day of my life since second grade and have made various comics... but I'm only now comfortable enough to share any. I really love listening to music - any music - since it helps me to get inspiration. I also love video games. My favorites are The Sims 3 and Portal 2. I work at a personal care home as a resident care aide for the elderly. It's demanding but I love it because I love helping people. I also love meeting people, so feel free to say hello! <3

@MalikTous: Yeah they really need to lighten the mood, and quick. :P
@Quadrant: Haha yeah sorry... I had absolutely no drive to work on it for whatever reason. Now that I'm done with my job I feel much better. :P
@Almightyra: You'd think they'd catch on by now, huh?
@anko2468: Hooray! I will try not to run off again.

@Almightyra: Which one? Jiratra or Zadia? Cause they're both being pretty brutal on one another. XD
@Roryduck: Haha in case you can't tell I was an education major... for three years at least. French Education. Then I switched to Anthropology which is where the rest of my interest with this comic stems from. XD; I hated that though, crazy long lectures. I had a hard time retaining information, since I wasn't diagnosed with ADHD until AFTER I graduated from college.

Hooray for posting depressing stuff! Wait. That's bad huh... :|
@snow crystal: You got it~ and Ashley is a lovely brother, he is just not confident in himself. Like at all.
@Cynxcity: That would probably be the case had his mom not gone crazy and tried to kill him. But since he lived outside of the household since then and was then forced to be the male gender (via military school), it mixed him up big time.
@SeaCrest: I wasn't planning on putting it into the comic because I think it'd take up too much space but she drowned, which is kinda why I depicted the only shot of her as one at the beach. :P
@Wolvesinboundary: Ashley's mom was shown fully at the end of chapter three, when Sadie visits her in the psych ward. :)
@Elune: Aw, I'm very glad you like it. :) I have been putting it off for a while trying to find the right way to approach an upcoming part but I think I've gotten it sorted out now. ^^

@Almightyra: SOON. Not soon enough but soon.
@anko2468: Amelia doesn't understand people she never had friends haha
@happybunnyntx: Hooray~ unfortunately the clarification probably wasn't what Mikko would want to hear.
@Half Moon: She is terrible at interrogating.

Sorry I've been a total ass about not updating, dunno what's wrong with me lately but I'm gonna try to get myself back on track here.
@anko2468: That would be the most beautiful thing in existence. She'd just be all "AIIGHT I'M OUT" and leave with Kim. XD
@Almightyra: Well they better get over it quick cause they're being jerkfaces.
@Half Moon: Don't worry you got plenty of time, I've been a loser about updating.

Go ahead and b'aww some more Amelia nobody cares.
@Inxerene: I should have known you'd come back to comment on Mikko's hotness. XD
@Quadrant: when I was 17 everything was serious business. But as stated, I did later need medicated so... XD;
@Almightyra: But of course! Everyone is depressed! :V
@happybunnyntx: Mikko looks kinda funny when he smiles. XD Same with Chris.
@anko2468: The last chapter was called "Regrets" too actually. And pain is in EVERYONE'S FUTURE.
@Iron: B'aww haha. Yeah Kim got another haircut. I like to try to remember that normal people get haircuts so my characters' hair should grow and have to get cut occasionally. XD

The point at which the author tries to shove information down your throats awkwardly so people stop getting confused. I am so bad at making normal conversation.
@Scarce Rose: Ashley and Violet are half-siblings (they share the same dad) but Sadie is unrelated. :)
@twerdgirl8462: Mm... more or less... XD
@Cynxcity: It's more that his mom was mentally unstable and raised him to be a girl, which skewed his perception of himself from an early age. If you are biologically male but told from the day you're born that you're biologically female, you are probably going to grow up believing it, though you may feel the need to fight your gender roles or feel out of place, and of course puberty will reveal the obvious issues at hand. This is why I labeled Ashley as bigender, because his perception of self is skewed by believing from an early age that he was female, but eventually grew (somewhat, not completely) into the role of a biological male and (somewhat, not completely) accepted it. He still holds on to both perceptions he has of himself, but doesn't really completely fall into either one.
@snow crystal: You've more or less got it. :) Whee!
@SeaCrest: Haha really it's just Ashley and his mom that are messed up, the rest of his family tries very hard to retain a sense of normalcy. :P

Made to match the previous title page. :>
@Almightyra: It really isn't lol what is he even doing...
@happybunnyntx: Lol it's hard to be overshadowed by your good-looking counterpart. Thanks! XD
@Morana2020: I actually enjoy that you don't like her. :) Overall I like her but I can say I did not like doing the same stupid things she does when I was 17 years old.
@gottalovepirates: We shall see..... /muahahaha
@Quadrant: I would make the argument that she's a 17-year-old girl and 17-year-old girls are prone to blowing everything out of proportion but I am basing that on my own experience as a teenager and I did end up needing antidepressants lmao. So it could go either way I guess?
@ank02468: B'AWW I HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD BIRTHDAY :>

@Cynxcity: I do want Ashley to be content with his life and with himself by the time this comic is through. Might just take us a while to get there haha...
@snow crystal: Though Sadie IS losing her cool on this page a bit, Ashley does at least have a good support net forming, and getting Lucas's support is gonna be a big help to him.
