Absolutely no pressure to answer this, but I’ve been getting curious what with what’s currently going down in the Bakery Enemies AU! Do you intend to end it shortly after the reveal, or do you have plans to continue the plot re getting the kwamis back and finding/taking down the real peacock holder?
Basically, the "end" of the comic that I have in mind still has some loose ends. I was kind of planning on doing some epilogue comics to tie them up, or even like little short snippet comics of little jokes or cute moments or what have you.
I can't completely guarantee that I'll do them, because when the comic is done I will probably need to go back to doing the other things I've been busy with, but it was sort of the plan.

Elia Suleiman and Gael García Bernal as themselves in It Must Be Heaven (2019, dir. Elia Suleiman)
(for the avoidance of doubt, this whole conversation apart from "Hello, my name is Hernando Cortes and I wanna conquer you" is in Spanish)
Transcript (English) below the jump.
Hey, what's up? No, I'm here. Waiting for a meeting with an American producer… well, she's not American. I don't know where she's from.
It's for a project on the conquest of Mexico, for the 500th anniversary of the conquest. About Cortes, Moctezuma and all that stuff. But they want to do it in English.
Yes, in English, can you imagine? They want the Spanish to speak English. And the indigenous to speak in Nahuatl or any other language. They don't care. So they'd sound like: "Hello, my name is Hernando Cortes and I wanna conquer you." or something like that.
It's going to be terrible, really. Terrible. No, I don't want to do it. I'll tell her no.
Anyway, I'm here with my friend Elia. Elia Suleiman. He's Palestinian. No, no, not Palestinian from Israel. He's Palestinian from Palestine. Yes, Palestinian from Palestine. From Palestine.
Listen, we'll talk later, OK? Sorry, I'll call you later. Ciao!

Im currently reinstalling BG3 to get all the new patches and whatnot so of course instead of focusing on my previous save where I already reached Act 3 Im thinking of starting a new run instead like... it wont even be that different when Im probably just gonna switch from ranger to druid but I wanna.
Plus, I thought of getting some new hair styles and clothes with mods since I saw so many lovely ones all over yt and tumblr, but Im not sure if it won’t disable my achievements? And I kinda like seeing them so rip new lovely hair styles I guess ;C

I couldn’t fit it all in a simple comment so I’ll write it out here. This is in regards to your most recent post about chapter 4.
Something that’s incredibly natural about emotional and relational issues is that they are a constant nagging thing. The fact that these two are going to bring up similar things time and time again is actually very realistic. Because they haven’t SOLVED anything yet. So the angst, regardless if we’ve seen it before, is going to be reoccurring! I totally understand what it’s like to feel like you’ve literally beaten something dead in a story with how much it’s brought up. But it’s only natural that characters who have been deeply hurt are going to bring it back up. People are always going to feel shame and regret for the terrible things they’ve done, and it is always going to come back. Same with hatred and anger. I promise you, from a writing standpoint, it is going to feel weird and nonsensical to constantly bring it up, but it is necessary to move the story a long! And you’re doing an amazing job at it!
Sometimes, in life and in writing, we’re going to feel like we’re walking through mud. So it’s a-okay if the chapter feels like this too, I promise it’ll work out(we are always our worst critics). :]
AWWW THIS IS SO SWEET!!! And it's all completely true LMFAO Though there is some back and forth (🤮) in chapter 4, it's more that...I've edited this fic so many times and reread it over and over trying to get the pacing/tone/dialogue down that the emotional high and low points do not impact me anymore, so I'm unsure if they're going to be effective.
But there's definitely some of that go-around of hashing things out...and I was unsure about that too, and you're right that it's natural and all the EMOTIONS that come with that are very pointed. But then I'm worried about pacing -- that things are "solved" too quickly AUGHGHEHRHGHG
I know it's not as bad as I'm making it out to be. It's just that this is the next-to-last chapter of the fic. 5 is technically the last chapter, and I'm still holding plot points in my hands unsure of where they should go. I'm having to move things around because chapters 2+3 were supposed to be ONE but then that pushed things over into chapter 4. which pushed things over into chapter 5. and it's a whole mess ughggh
i don't like to complain about the process, and I shouldn't do it on a nice ask like this JFFJJ but damn...I dunno, in the morning this'll all be embarrassing but holy shit, I just want this to be SATISFYING. I want it to end and be like "Ah, that was a good fic. From start to finish, I enjoyed it."
That's what I want. 😔
