Guys, I don't think they were talking about just bees
WE'VE FINALLY REACHED THE END!!!!!!! FINALLY I CAN REST. OH BOY.
This was a handful, but one hell of a journey.
First things first, there are some things that I'm unhappy about this comic. But in the end, I can't really bring myself to care about the mistakes anymore, I just want to get this out of the way now, since it's actually hindering my schedule.
So I did my best to end it off as soon as possible, though I managed to preserve most of the message, so there's a plus there.
Another would be that I don't like how I ended up diverging their characterization a bit to make the message possible. I'm sure if I had more time on my hands, I would've been able to provide a much better paced story that's actually in-character for these two, but... I don't have that kind of liberty.
I'm honestly just so relieved that it's finally over, and I was actually able to reach the end.
Now, for my thoughts about Caine's ignorance towards psychological torment: this is the one that I'm most certain he doesn't know. Mostly because you could easily mistake psychological pain with emotional pain and mix the two together, so I'm certain that this is the reason why he keeps doing things his way.
Just like emotional pain, as long as there is no stimulus source of the discomfort, he thinks that it will eventually go away.
But there is one aspect of psychological torment he kinda has a bit of an idea for: mind influence. And that one, he's since stopped doing, and he's only doing seldomly-- and within safe boundaries. (What he admits to doing in episode 7)
It will not be an easy journey for Caine towards betterment, but it's a good starting point.
I do hope you all enjoyed the story, and thanks for sticking 'till the end! As well as for the support, I've been receiving so many messages about how immersed people are with this comic. Which is just so heartwarming;;;;
It's been an honor making this comic! But GOD I do NOT want to make another one of these LMFAO
