rupi kaur turned down an invite to the white house for a diwali celebration, and she explicitly named the government’s response to the conflict in palestine as the reason, and you know what? she has my utter respect for that.

All this hbo and grrm stuff has me kinda depressed about the fact that we can't seem to ever get adaptions of fanasty literature that's actually good or respects the source material

(except lotr or maybe his dark materials (the new TV series (tho I haven't seen the last season so that might have been fucked too for all I know))

So, where’s Phe?

Since the end of the World’s Faire, Phe has been taking some time off at her shack! She has an injury to recover from and suprisingly she’s not doing anything to make it worse! In other words, she’s staying out of trouble.

Pheonix will be back on her usual bullshit again soon, so keep an eye out for her - especially around the Shadowlands again!

Sympathy/SFD stuff - infos

So, having a day off I started to think about how I want to finish the additional chapter and noticed that many things have changed since I started this comic.

For everyone who’s interested, here are further details:

At first, I used everything I knew about Swapfell... and trust me, I just got into the fandom and had no real idea until I came across Angelia-Dark’s Swapfell Script... only then I realised that THIS is the direction I wanted to go with the Swapfell Bro’s. Then I ended up using a totally different Swapfell version for this comic and welp... this causes some minor troubles.

Why?

Bit by bit I started to develope my own version of them that is the one you all know by now: the Swapfell Dawn or also “Fallen Swapfell” version.

Just to explain the difference in the names:

Swapfell Dawn describes how the brothers came to be and became the well known “Lord and his bloodhound”. There you learn everything about their past childhood and adulthood BEFORE the resets start.

Fallen Swapfell describes everything that happened after the first reset. It mostly plays by the rule of the original game with some twists and differences that I am still working on. Fallen Swapfell is the follow up to Swapfell Dawn.

So it’s totall fine to call it Swapfell Dawn(sfd) or Fallen Swapfell(fsf). I tend to call the thing only SFD, since it’s the thing I worked with initially

Back to the point... working on the Swapfell Bro’s many things changed... especially their attitude. And this is a small problem along with my art style that has developed a lot since the first page came to be. Not only did I draw Pup a bit too harmless, their story changed completely.

I was rereading the comic (and cringeing at the fact how poorly it’s drawn...) and realized that one or two things are not correct anymore. But I don’t want to redraw the comic tbh, because the start of the story is correct. There are just some behaviour issues wrong and the motivation of why the figures act. I am just lucky that I didn’t reveal why Pup helped (or rather pointed it out that obviously) and why Black wasn’t with him from the start. (That is important)

---

I think it might get confusing if I continue with it but I will do so... it’s part of the Fallen Swapfell concept after all.

I am simply having troubles how to explain Pup’s behaviour at two points because its not completely right. However.. I have excuses for it I guess... it’s more or less a warning that it might not make that much sense for some while. Not to mention Pup’s looks will be a lot sharper and a lot more dangerous (which was intended to make him look harmless at first).

This additional chapter is mainly for the purpose of introducing a problem between the Swapfell Bro’s. The mood is very tense and it’s hinting at different things. And the brother’s behave highly aggressive towards each other at some point: problem: the mood was playful in the first chapter and this is not completely correct. So I need to explain that at some later point.

Geez, I dont even know how to correct the things int he first chapter... I don’T want to redraw it... Pup’s behaviour is a bit off and Black’s “good mood” also. Q.Q sometimes it sucks to start a project without knowing much.

I will srsly try to work on that comic too, but it’s rlly hard to fix the issues I found...

at least chapter one introduces the main problems... I’ve talked with some cookies about it and many found out the secret hints I put into it <3 That’s relieving at least!

Oh yeah...

I should tell you guys that the focus of the comic shifted too. It’s not all about BB but mainly the Swapfell Bro’s.

Don’t expect that every ship happens that I hint at. In general I won’t do any promises. I draw what I planned and I won’T draw fanservice just to pelase readers. 

I am possibly not drawing what you came for. So don’t complain in the end, if there aren’t so many explicit shit stuff like you wish for. This story has a purpose and it’s not all about sex and fun, y’know.

Like Swapfell Dawn there is a good reason why things are going the way it is and it will lead to many problems.

So if you came for sex and fun, then I am sorry. This comic won’t please you as much. Especially with the things that changed in there.

Well.... I think that’s it for know... Just felt like sharing my inner troubles and things I noticed.

Be patient with me... I am trying to work on the comics as much as I can and feel like :3

there was a school shooting in tennessee yesterday with a trans perpetrator. you are going to see it leveraged against an entire community. you are going to see it used to prove that trans people are unstable and dangerous to children. i am begging you always to denounce violence wherever you see it, and to never trust an individual or outlet that tries to paint a community of people as entirely bad.

when a member of a marginalized group commits a crime, they are taken as representative of that entire marginalized group. work against that idea and identify what the actual factors are that lead to horrible violence like this.
