As a major softy who's quick to fog up at the slightest pull of the heartstring, this was very relatable and left me pondering about my history with feelings and crying. Such a good comic again.

And I'm so glad someone else thinks drawing character sheets is tedious cause it's something I never do but know it will be super helpful down the road. - _ -

Very good. I like the way you are constant throughout the story with the color Blue.

I wrote a little book on Emotions, hop hop Hope.

It’s free on amazon as an e book, but the book itself is precious. The story is told through the eyes of a bunny rabbit. It is about a little girl that is Blue and does not know what to do.

So wonderful! This comic is absolutely beautiful, and even moreso after you shared the story of how you developed it. The nasturtiums! So cool! So happy to have found your stack :)

I love this! I’m a big cry-er too. Sometimes I think of myself like a snail...🐌 I need the moisture of tears to move forward

I'm part of the crybaby club, too! It's really beautiful to see how our relationship with our emotions changes as we get older. Also, how amazing is that nasturtium coincidence?

Your writing and compositions were so strong in this comic. The water droplets especially gave me art goosebumps. And I think many people can empathize with the plight of allowing yourself to cry as you get older.

Really great work and beautiful story, the way you cut out that square format for the purpose of the narration is really well done.

Oh!! So beautiful Christina, I just love how the “I know it will come and go” panel turned out! Crying is a tender act and I feel in touch with my femininity and emotion, which the world needs more not less of nowadays. Your hard work definitely paid off, and great advice on the character sheet—I need to do that too for my WIP!

Thanks so much Carolyn!! You're so right, the world can only be a better place if we allow space for kindness and empathy. Ooh I definitely recommend the character sheet, good luck with your WIP!
