Author commentary

Veronica: In the rewrite/redraw, I wanted Paulo to still be slimy and grabby, but not to the extent of being an inexcusable sexual-assaulter, so his actions have been toned down throughout the comic, for the better.

He’s still being annoying and hugging Lucy when she doesn’t want him to, but now you think he’s a prick that needs to get better at boundaries, rather than irredeemable.

Oliver: Some things that make sense as an extreme anime-style joke get kind of confusing when the characters are fleshed out later! So enjoy a comic where the things that are happening have the correct weight.
