Omg I'm such an idiot. All this time, I thought that kata was your oc. I was playing Survivor the other day, when I realized that nooo she's actually a real character.
NO OMG I THOUGHT THAT TOO!! i saw this amazing comic in the months between playing jfo and js and was like wow cool oc! that whole thing doesn't sound super in character for cal though-- LITTLE DID I FUCKING KNOW
imagine going through god’s most worst teen angst and finally coming out of it in your mid twenties and then having to babysit a teen version of you but this time he has a rocket launcher built into his arm
I feel kinda bad for Soot like, his family is murdered by monsters one by one, he's chosen to lead the clan but doesn't even get nine lives, he and his sister adopt what's basically a younger brother, but trying to take care of him gets someone killed (someone nice to him, someone who had kits of her own), his only friend is really a rival and someone he's supposed to chase away from the territory, especially as Leader. He has some sort of relationship with someone, seeking companionship? Comfort? A chance to be the not even 2 years old he is? And winds up with kits. That he now has to raise alone. In monster filled territory.
YOU GET IT!!!
You so get it, my lil guy is not having a good time, their sister might get more attention by me (cuz she just happens to experience more) but Soots story is pretty damn sad
And if you remember, he was the one to first accept that his last family member was gone and dead. Soot is a very social character, who thrives in a big family, he doesn't have that and he got desperate and seeked out comfort in a stranger that eventually dropped him like a bag of brick in water.
He's happy to have his kits but he also knows they might not survive. Him and Silk have been lucky with Dew surviving as long as he has, it's because they never let him out of sight— this is three kits, he's not even going to try to convince themselves they can keep them all safe. Silk knows that too, which is why she's not that happy about this situation.
I almost hit my 6 month mark of being 23, and I attest that this is one of the hardest years of my life. An accumulation of mental battle and physical battle with yourself, and the material world. Demons everyone, projections like there’s no tomorrow and sooo many break downs and panic attacks. I’m gonna be so strong by next year, I feel it shaping me already. Curse and blessings, dance with your demons forever and always
Kind of hilarious that crimeboys is their duo name given that it was Wilbur having an established bit and fanboy Tommy deciding that he was going to be part of that bit
