I took my time replying because it's difficult to understand my feelings, but the idea that "bitterness, sadness, any negative emotion, as long as it comes from the heart" has stuck with me... Even if it's a sour expression, as long as my heart is in it, it will be okay? I'll have to think about that from now on. Thank you very much. It's easier said than done, but I will remember that as I push myself to write.
My entire motivation for a Melting sequel story is the idea I could draw Lillian in a slick dinner jacket and vest, which would be extremely stylish and cool ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) for narrative reasons, of course.
