This one is staying with me for a long time.  Absolutely immaculate.

Oh my goodness this is short but there is so much here. As an autistic struggler, this definitely got me. A story that gets what its like to have things going on with your brain where emotional regulation and communication and aspects of what is considered “basic functioning” is all taxing and unreliable and that we can often find ourselves in bad situations where we can hurt each other and yet. Love is so important. Love and companionship is so important even when understanding and processing those feelings is an effort, even when you freeze up and go numb and dissociate from having feelings or knowing what to do with them or how to communicate them, especially when difficult living conditions make you not be your best selves.

Love the EGL and how it communicates the way so much meaning can be conveyed through the things that fascinate us and bring us joy. And everything wrapped up in such a charming and expressive art style! And meat fungus!

Very excited to get around to your other works!

This is something very special. During a very difficult time in my life I remember reading about what these characters were going through while I was coming down off of crying panic attacks, seeing reflections of such powerful feeling, such vulnerability and honestly being kind of in awe.

And all of that while still being a work in progress! It's also the only piece of media with Xio Rosales in it.

She literally has the ocean limited, though?

Love emotionally incompetent women making things worse through ennui and indecisiveness. Love the inability to move on eating the future while the past crumbles.

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for making this.

Horrifying. Gorgeous. Sickening. Delicious. Being forced to inhabit the perspectives of the broken and those who do the breaking (as though some ppl ever have a choice but to do the latter). some of the most scintillating, poetic wordcraft i've ever seen in the medium, all to bring terror and pain and violation to life.

SPOILERS

ironically the more visceral scenes at the end weren't as terrifying as simply the earlier moments of building dread and simply inhabiting Angel's fragmented, bleeding mental landscape. I can't say I've even come close to experiencing the breadth of trauma that Angel has, but the depictions of dissociation, marinating in anxiety, neurodivergent overstimulation, shame, fawning, impaired communication and disordered thinking  and the sheer scrutiny of existing as a visibly vulnerable mentally ill entity proved to be claustrophobic and overwhelming and relateable in the bestworst possible ways. the implicit violence coming into fruition almost felt like cathartic relief by comparison. Emotional claustrophobia like a trash compacter.

Incredible story. Eager to inflict it on others.
