#she genuinely thought she hadn't cut any fruit for us so she just kept going--

[nguyenfinity]

In 2018, I made Fight Kiddo as a way to vent frustration with some stuff, but I didn't know what to name her 'cause I didn't really wanna call her Fight Kiddo the entire time. I ended up naming her after my grandma, an incredibly kind and loving lady who would not put up with people's bs.

She passed away year ago today (or. a year and a day ago today because tumblr formatting decided to be difficult, sorry) and like. When I say my 2022 sucked I mean like I caught covid the day before she passed away so for me it was just. Yeah it sure was a summer. It was a rough time to say the least but kept the fight goin huh?

I wanted to bring Fight Kiddo back to honor her namesake in a way, and though I can't do much else now besides draw this for her, I do thank you so much for reading along <3

#my covid experience was a whole other can of worms #pls lmk to tag #if anyone wants to hear about it sure jfgsdfhasdfgj #fight kiddo #this series was more for my own full closure i suppose #tag rambling now #when i first made this in 2018 i hadn't seen her in. 4?? i think years #it was a long time so i just missed her #her memory was going so every time i talked to her i was scared she wouldn't remember me #but the last time we talked she was like #'you grew so much i hardly recognized you! if we passed each other on the street we probably would've just gotten in an argument haha' #the apples are a reference to a core memory of mine #she always cut up apples for us but at this point her memory had started going #so this one day she kept. cutting up apples for us and we were like 'g.. grandma this is like our 4th bowl of apples' and #she genuinely thought she hadn't cut any fruit for us so she just kept going-- #i used to think of it as a sad memory of her gradually becoming less lucid but i think now more of how it shows how much she loved us. #anyways yeah if you read all that #thank you <3
