If you're a bit lost or have missed some updates this is a great way to catch up. It goes right up to the last canon comic I posted on here!

I've shaken up the order here and there, and added some transition pages for a smoother reading experience, so it's worth a read even if you are up to date!

[Part 1 is here]

Having a sweaty, half naked young man in his house is not what Father Eugene expected when he offered wayward Cliff a chance to get some work experience as a decorator. But surely a little friendly flirting couldn’t hurt?

So far, Eugene has managed to resist temptation and keep up a semblance of priestly propriety - but as Cliff grows bolder, things start to heat up, and really get out of control…

121 pages

Features two cis gay men, age difference, homoerotic tension, repression, angst, breaking of celibacy vows (yes they DO hook up for real in this one).

The story is set in the early 1980s, so if you're a fan of retro visuals it won't disappoint!

Cws for alcoholism, sex work, self destructive behaviour, suicide mention, HIV mention.

Thank you all so much for supporting me so I can make these comics for a living!

Mal, I keep the first volume of this in my e-reader, and I am SO EXCITED to have the second one, too ♡♡♡♡♡ I see so much of myself in Cliff, and this story has really been so special to me as you've been publishing it

THAT COVER IS TO DIE FOR. OH MY GOWWDGDGSHSJD BARK BARK Mal you're such an inspiration 🥹 I am so happy to have this! (I'd buy them printed Im so serious) I love love this.

Also I found out recently from my own research that diocesan priests like Eugene make "promises" to their bishop in lieu of the "vows" that religious priests take. And now I gotta change some dialogue in my own work 😖

hop

yayyyy!! thank you so much for putting these together, I love having them all together.

Do you think you will bring out physical copies of these? I'd be 100% down ✨

malacandrax

heehee thank you I pinched a panel from one of the comics and recoloured it with the retro tone brushes!

malacandrax

it's not in my plans tbh, printing and shipping are so expensive right now, thank you for the interest though!

GoofyMcGee

I just joined your patreon, and i think it has been the best financial decision i have ever made!!! I love your art and am so stoked to be able to read these comics in full and support the ✨fine arts✨!!!!

malacandrax

hah!! what a great compliment hahaha, thank you! >:3c

franticfennec

Ahhh, yayyyy!!! I often revisit the first pdf you made and I cannot wait to do the same with this one. I feel a sort of way about Eugene’s more eccentric outfits??? The colors??? The boobie??? Will we see him in those outfits in the future?? I always love it when you explore the fashion that Eugene gravitates toward from the 70s. Put that man in a shirt that shows off that cleavage!! Yes!! There’s a lovely flow to this story. ✨ I cannot wait to see where Cliff and Eugene go in canon!

I went back and read all of pt 1 again man I love these two, and I did have a little giggle about all the laundry these two made creaming their sheets and pants over each other 🤭

malacandrax

lmao listen. listen. i dont have an excuse I just think its hotter.

Kaylee

Hehe Mal believe me no excuses needed! It’s hot AS FUCK 😏 and I patiently await the next time you grace us with that meal 🍽️
