The memories of our love feel like pulling a warm blanket over myself after a long day, which is funny, considering the reality of our love felt like the long day itself, don't you think ?
Artist note: I’m so proud of this :))) I know it’s a lot of dialogue and reading, but dialogue is grueling work for me. I’m glad with the art and for the amount of pages I made in such a relatively short time span -w- page 5 was super fun to work on. A lot of blood, sweat, and hours here... :) The backgrounds were a big bore tbh, but I finished them! Yippie!
I hope u all like John Dory and Floyd’s dynamic as much as i do.
(Copied and pasted from twt)
This is definitely me spreading my John Dory and Floyd talk abt customers together a lot agenda bc they are the ones who serve the most. YOU CANNOT TELL ME THEIR ASSES ARE NOOOT TELLING EACHOTHER ABT NOT TIPPING OR CUSTOMER GOSSIP!!!
I actually am going insane i think abt them too hard THEY RELY ON EACHOTHER A LOT SINCE THEY BOTH HANDLE THE BRUNT OF THE CUSTOMERS ‼️‼️‼️ i like to imagine they engage in a lot more work conversations because of how comfortable they are working together similar to bruce & clay..
Sorry this post is just. John dory and floyd making conversation every second theyre not running orders. Idk how to demonstrate the euphoric feeling to turn to ur coworker like “man that guy sucked ass” “IK???” But thats them
+bonus
I think abt the fact that john dory is way older than floyd and branch in my au and probably the same age as their idols
Benjamin Zephaniah on why he turned down receiving a OBE (The "significance" of an OBE or a MBE is that it is rewarded to somebody by the monarchy to recognise how impactful ones work has been. the video and transcript explain why it would be traitorous to receive this when the themes surrounding Zephaniah's work were wholly and completely anti British empire and colonist)
"The OBE means "Officer of the Order of the British Empire", MBE stands for "Member of the British Empire".
I've been fighting against empire all my life. I've been fighting against slavery and colonalism all my life. I've been writing to connect with people, not to impress governments and monarchy. So how could I then go and accept an honour that puts the word empire on to my name? That would be hypocritical"
"No way Mr Blair, no way Mrs Queen. I am profoundly anti-empire." - A piece Benjamin Zephaniah wrote for the Guardian in regards to his rejection of an OBE.
ITS THE SIBBYS! I love the concept of them being older brother and younger sister! It gives so many cool senarios to think about!
ALSO, while the game was okay, Im SO TEMPTED to just rewrite it in a more engaging way, either in story or drawing/doodle form! Sammy dying like that...my 2nd favorite...NOT ON MY WATCH! The lack of choices, Porter/Heidi, the Ink Followers at the end being horrible, Baby Benders, Malice, Tom and Allison, and just Joey being "good". Just the writing and storyline was all over the place and didnt make sense half the time. And of course ALOT doesnt make sense relating to the book storyline either. Of I could make games I would do it that way, but I some story improvements wouldnt hurt, right?
(Im not saying it was horrible, Im saying I want to make an AU where things make alittle more sense, ex: Audreys whole situation. So thats what Im gonna do, in story and doodle form. So take these as a bit of practice!)
This is how they would look in my AU!
HAVE A Festive Bendy in a cozy sweater with hot cocoa doodle since Christmas is VERY SOON! 🥺
Although I can honestly see both sides of what the fandoms been saying about the recent Sam developments I think it’s important to remember that Sam and Darlin are both extremely traumatised characters. Their relationship isn’t going to be ‘normal’. Their coping mechanisms, their timing with events, everything to do with their relationship is different to one of non-traumatised characters if that makes sense?
There are definitely a lot of ways to look at how they handle things, like how Sam being ready for sex and biting with Darlin were both after life-altering events. Would it be nice for them to come to these points in there relationship in a ‘healthier’ way? Yes it would.
But that’s literally not how their brains work. I’m not trying to patronise their characters. Their actions are still their actions, they are grown adults and shouldn’t be minimised to just what’s happened to them. But the things they’ve gone through aren’t just side story’s or plots for comfort audios.
Trauma scientifically changes the way your brain works, it can literally change who you are as person. And for Sam in particular he’s canonically never been in a healthy situation besides his relationship with Darlin (and the Shaw pack).
So if the way they do things kinda seems off to the average folk, that’s normal. Sam literally says ‘it’s not weird, it’s us.’ It’s how THEY handle things.
There’s nothing wrong with disliking it, with wishing it was different or with completely enjoying it. But I think it’s something we don’t keep in mind in this context enough.
I’ve been an avid Sam fan since he got a playlist on the channel and even to me some things seem rushed or ‘strange’ but that’s because I’m not the characters, I haven’t gone through what they have, and in some lights it’s kind of refreshing to see how relationships between different people with different pasts can develop. Instead of a character going through something horrendous having a cry about it and then going back to their old self.

saw alot of comments on prev pages; saying 'i HATE that mean teacher! im gonna FIGHT HIM!!' & i LOVE the energy!! it WOULD be nice. to have that catharsis. but the story of young tidestrider is Not one of catharsis. it is a story of being so small and so special and sucking so bad.
