Language has nothing to do with rational thought. I think that's why I get so horribly furious and disturbed with rational thought. Language is the opposite of the way a machine works. Language is poetry, maybe? But not all language is poetry. Nor is all poetry language. July 3, 1964 Anne Sexton: A Self-Portrait in Letters First published: 1977

A "What-if" scenario on if the abstracted characters could "De-Abstract". I personally like the idea of abstraction being more permanent as it gives it a sense of finality, but I can't help but admit that the idea of De-Abstraction is a comforting thought, lol. Of course, I believe it also wouldn't be without consequences.

The idea for abstraction scars having a sort of 'crystal-like' appearance came from the animiniz in the Glitch store. Not sure I'll get any of them, but I love how they look.

Some head canons I like for de-abstraction:

They are more sensitive to light or bright areas, and maybe prefer the dark like abstractions. Maybe after too much time in the light they become overwhelmed. Caine made them a 'quiet' room to help them settle.

Maybe Caine makes them special sunglasses to better deal with light.

When they're agitated, their scars flare up and spike.

Maybe they're even more susceptible to re-abstracting when isolated for too long.

They're almost chronically tired.

Took way longer than I thought but here's my first comic! This takes place in my Open World Ending AU, where kinger gets caine to chill tf out and together they start to build open worlds for everyone to explore/live in as they want. Jax's mental health and behavior has significantly improved under these new circumstances, but he still has a lot to figure out.

Will you still love me once I’ve given up?

Funnybunny fluff?????

I love you in the morning so you know it’s no lie

Here's the third comic in the Open World AU. I decided it would be more interesting if the cast also had some limited ability to conjure and worldcraft, so I wanted to explore that. This comic is both the longest I've done yet and is the most involved painting-wise. I hope it was worth the wait!

Guess it was a stylish marriage after all!
