I hate drawing people laying down!!! Drawing expressions sideways is so disorienting for me for some reason. Flipping the canvas around constantly trying to get things to look right 😵‍💫😵‍💫 I got dizzy lol

you did the bestest job at drawing them 🫶🏼

Trees

I’ve literally been thinking how much I like the art for this and last week’s episode - you’ve drawn them so well and captured really effective expressions throughout this conversation!

Yay to communication!!! Also, second to last bubble has "haveyour"

Anna Elgersma

Sooch wants to get dicked down before fall semester starts lol

A.R.Walker

I drew a short comic with my characters laying in bed together. It was with a pen and I never flipped the canvas, but can confirm that it's a little disorienting when youre focused on the art and suddenly look up 🫠 Anywho, loved the update ♥️

Mya

I love them so much 🥰

Jordyn Probst

The art is just so clean!! I’ve been here since the beginning and watching the art evolve is so cool!

Jade

Sooch is tryna pencil in that dck appointment 😅 Priorities may not be straight but they are in order lmao

Dust Rust

I say it everytime, but they are so precious! Love their healthy dynamic and communication, how they’re respectful and caring to each others 🥹❤️

Luna_Lena

I KNEW THEY’D AT LEAST TRY BEFORE THE END OF THE SUMMERRRRR

sg

Ugh the drawing looks so good tho I’m always thinking about how i love their expressions and mannerisms

sg

Sooch wants that D yesterday

Stephanie

Nooo Sooch don’t stress! Howie is just waiting for the word so he can turn feral!

Noah

You‘re doing a really good job drawing them lying down though! It can look really weird really quickly, but you’re drawing it really well!

Mooncitta

Your drawing is beautiful DW💖

Marie darche

communication 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

NullatisElpis

It seriously looks great though! You’ve grown so much since starting this series! It’s honestly amazing looking back and seeing how your art has blossomed. And just think, in a few years your art is going to get even more easier to draw from different perspectives! 💛

Doe ✰

He said NYEOW!!!

JoastyJoe

The curiosity and honesty here is sooo sweet 😭 I relate so hard to the struggle of drawing characters lying down. But this whole chapter has looked amazing!! Also, I can’t remember if this was mentioned earlier in the comic, but does Sooch mean first time in general or first time with a man?

JoastyJoe

He wants Howie so bad stopp 😭😭💕💕💕

♡ShutUp☆I'mReadingBL♡

I love the communication between these two. There's nothing like being with someone you feel truly comfortable with 🥰

Insaner

With a man! It's explained in...a side comic? I cannot remember at this point... Anyway it's explained that Sooch not a virgin.

RikieRose

If you are carefully prepped and the time is taken, it doesn't hurt.

Kasey Lewis

It takes proper prep and stretching. But the first time is going to hurt unless he uses toys to slowly stretch and adjust. Interested to see where this goes.

Auggie

Healthy communication when i first wake up🙏 its gonna be a good day

JoastyJoe

Oohh okay interesting!! I couldn’t tell if that was mentioned before or I was just imagined it. I really love that, I’ve noticed that other MLM works sometimes have the character in Sooch’s place have zero sexual experience as if having been with a woman somehow invalidates their newfound exploration, but this feels more realistic, esp for someone like Sooch who wasn’t exploring his orientation like Howie. Bittie’s writing 🔛🔝

Victor Perez

Great communication, wonder why there's no discussion whatsoever about sooch topping. He was only with women before Howie after all. Feels like they just accepted their roles because of their body sizes (which is weird). As a gay guy this convo seems a little unrealistic but I like the effort.

♡ShutUp☆I'mReadingBL♡

Yeah I don't think it's ever directly mentioned in the main comic, but I do believe it was said that he's dated girls in the past. And he knows that sex is important to him in a relationship, so that implies to me that he's had sexual relationships before, just never with a man, or, more specifically ig, one where he intrinsically feels like the more "submissive" one

maria_yah

Absolutely not, at most, it should only feel unfamiliar at first. If your partner is willing to help you prep, and you're able to properly relax it should not hurt! Also, tons of lube. Better too much than not enough. I'd recommend something silicone based, or a silicone+water mix since silicone helps it not dry out as quickly. Also, figuring out prep on your own first can help you guide your partner in the future to do it properly *IF* you ever wanna try bottoming again. Some people take less time to prep, and for some it can be a whole process, so slow and steady does it🙂‍↕️

AL

Bittie explained in comments on the last episode that Howie actually did assume that Sooch would want to top and was perfectly fine with bottoming, hence why he was surprised last episode when Sooch insinuated wanting to try bottoming. Bittie also mentioned that they switch, so no, they don’t assume roles just because of their size!

cha0ticneutral

I was wondering the same thing, especially because there was a NSFW reward image or something a long time ago with Sooch topping I think? EDIT: Thanks AL!

Amelia Rector

We love a communication king 🫰🫰🫰

Victor Perez

That's great, but comments are not the comic. Just saying. Hermione being "black" or Dumbledore being gay on Twitter does not make it a thing in cannon. I'm just pointing out that the convo is odd in the comic. As a gay switch myself I've had this convo enough to know it's odd. Not hating, just saying it's odd.

jjthejetpain

Howie sneaking in those Baby’s as much as he can haha

AL

Look I’m not here to argue with you, I’m sorry that you find this conversation weird and odd. Lengthy, deep, important dialogue like this can be hard to depict in comic-format so please, let’s try to give a little grace to the author. I’m sure they’ll take your feedback into consideration!

Victor Perez

Not arguing. Sorry if it's coming off that way. I love this comic! I might be a bit traumatized by BL comics that have the "I was straight til I met you" trope and all the weirdness that comes with it. Lol again, sorry if it came off as aggressive!

Kimber

Howie tucking Sooch in 🥹

izzy

I’m curious if howie using “make love to you” in the last update implied sooch bottoming… I didn’t feel like it did but this conversation seems to be directed to that idea, aka sooch being nervous about bottoming. Like I’ve known people that had similar experiences (bottoming for the first time in a gay relationship after only being in relationships if women before topping their partner), and I don’t think it’s necessarily bad if that’s what it was implying in that last page- idk, just felt kinda like this would be a bigger deal, but i think it’s ok if it isn’t. Anyway, love the art

Diego P

Why can't Howie bottom first?

Luna_Lena

Just to add my two cents in (not arguing, I think all these points are valid!) - I think there’s a little bit of newness fear happening as well. Neither of them have had this convo with anyone before (other than Howie’s first time, which we don’t really know the specifics of, if I’m remembering the side-comic right) and both of them value each other so much that they’re afraid to say something to scare the other off (particularly Howie being afraid of scaring Sooch), and Sooch not even really knowing how to bring it up or talk about it at all, so I can definitely imagine Howie operating from a stance of “whatever Sooch offers is enough” instead of approaching him first. But that’s just me - I totally get wanting there to be more of an explicit dialogue about it!! Also, omg, ugh, the stereotypical “straight til I met you” trope is… such a problem. I’m happy with exploring the horrors of comphet and people (particularly bi people, as a bi/demi myself) not realizing their feelings were actually attraction, etc., but just jumping straight to “OH, guess I’ve always actually been gay and 100% a bottom at heart! I just needed this guy’s giant magic dick to make me realize it!!” is painful every time. I can’t speak from Howie’s perspective as a bi woman, but my experience was a lot like Sooch’s, where I went many years thinking I was only into men, but then realizing I actually felt the same about everyone and just live in a world where opportunities for women to have romantic interactions with anyone OTHER than cis men have to be intentionally sought out - which isn’t something I’m inclined to do, so it never happened - which is why this story is so compelling to me, I think. Finding that whole new part of yourself that you went years not seeing at all is such a strange experience, and I’m so happy for Sooch to have someone like Howie who is so understanding about it all 🥰

Meno

Comparing fan art/fan fics on twitter to actual lore from the author themselves is crazy work why are you so pressed bc virtue didn’t put more dialogue in this chapter? The convo will carry on in future chapters it’s not like they just fell asleep and made an assumption ab who goes with who. Bittie has stated before in the past they are a switch couple in further chapters for rewards and what not. If anyone is assuming it’s yall… just enjoy the comic it’s not always gonna fit realistic conversations/timing/formatting bc it’s difficult to do in a comic as bittie has stated before that dialog is tricky bc of that.

Meno

Yeahhh it was a Q&A from a loooong time ago where it said sooch loved women and has slept with them many times and has a (semi) high body count 🤣

Trey

You dragged it……you created an issue off of nothing. Can we let this aspect of the story progress before yall critique the writing ? So impatient 😭

🦐

Author Clarified in comments that howie was asking sooch to bottom but just doing in a more romantic way of saying it

Jenny

I think their expressions look great! Plus they’re so handsome 💕 I hope they have time to sleep after this lol 😝

Victor Perez

The comment about Twitter was literally comments from the author that never made it in the book. Same type of deal. If authors say something about the story that isn't in the story itself, it isn't canon. At most it's a cop out. Everything that happens in the NSFW or comments is not canon, they don't count. If bittie ever releases these as books, she won't include comics or the NSFW standalone comics, so they don't count. This whole thing is a reaction to LIGHT criticism about this conversation in this section of the comic and how gay/bi men are being represented. If it turns out different, great.

Victor Perez

"great communication" "I like the effort" "a little unrealistic" is dragging? Wow.

Laura

I also thought that, however, from the way sooch has been speaking about it it seems like he WANTS to bottom so I think Howie is just going with whatever sooch is wanting to try

snappyfixture

Howie sly with the baby and Sooch didn’t even clock this one. He’s gonna get used to them soon 🤣 I adore that they’re communicating so clearly instead of Sooch keeping his concerns to himself

Via!

YES BABYYY WE ARE ON THE CLOCK 🤩

Umbrathor

Sleep, sleep together, sleep, sleep together... maybe do some work every so often.

Sunny Rae

EVERYONE SHUT UP!!! My show is on ☺️✨❤️

Fanette DlL

Nope. Just a tip that can help : take the lead, you have to moove first, at your own rythm & time, it's easier this way. And breathe and it's best if your partner takes time to prépare you also

Red Elizabeth

It's honestly a complicated topic, largely because BL as a genre isn't primarily written for gay men. It's written for women. It doesn't accurately depict gay culture or the way men relate to each other. So, when gay men read it you have a combination of reactions that are very hard to separate. One is of a queer person who is not being accurately represented, the other is of a man who is, unlike a lot of their expirience, not being centred. And men, even queer men are very used to being centred. There's a LOT of queer folks who really want their expirience to be reflected in art, it's understandable, we've lived in a desert of that for so damn long, but it's also important to take a step back and realise that your expirience isn't universal. And BL comics and novels are primarily written by women for other women. One of the reasons is we are so traumatized by sexism and mysogeny that we write ourselves out of our own romance stories to get an expirience of what it would be like to have a relationship with a man where we aren't TREATED like a woman. So if you're feeling disappointed that this isn't doing it for you, it's likely because it wasn't written FOR you. You have every right to feel disappointed, but I don't think authors owe us realism, and this is a work in progress. It's not finished, you don't know what roles are going to be taken up or expressed sexually. And frankly, with the amount of stress Sooch is under, I can understand the notion that in bed, for now, he doesn't want to be in charge. The mental load is crushing him. Why wouldn't ge want to just lie back and let his more expirienced partner take over and let him be more passive for once? Heck, it's even in the conversation. Topping for the first time while stressed to the eyeballs with school... I can understand why he may want to be receiving first.

mangalover

yes, we are waiting, Sooch

katastrophe

IVE BEEN WAITINGGG FOR THIS CONVERSATION

Liz Kri

I'm having trouble viewing the update. 😭 I can't see anything. Update: I was able to read it today. :)

alynna Hawthorn

wwwaaa! I feel that Bittie. I'll be drawing at a certain angle and be like this is so good this is so good and then flip the image of how it's supposed to be presented and be like no NO! I have a better time if I just imagine they're leaning against a cushy wall and that they're still standing. but as far as the third person top views...I die.

Danielle Wilson

Bless you for the extra work you put in, it was worth it 🥹 I appreciate these soft moments from them so much

Kati de Jong

@red elizabeth just to respond to your last comment - 'receiving' can be just as active and 'topping' can be passive too. Thats what different positions are for.. i think things like that perpetuate the assumptions made with these different roles. That the more 'active' partner is automatically the top.

Julie

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Haven

Aww the sweeties

Kennedy

I personally feel like I’m in a hurry…but I’m also EATING THIS SLOWBURN UP!!!!

Tory

Awww no rush Sooch🥹 Sex isn’t meant to be planned, just enjoy 😌🙏🏼

Bean

As a person w adhd the way that you write sooch is so cathartic, like I wish I could have conversations this comfortable and candid with partners. You are so freaking talented it’s incredible

Pheobe Jackson

It can be planned ❤️ The older I get, the more difficult it is to be spontaneous. I've regularly planned sex with partners, I love that it's something fun to look forward to!

Assiafalih P

best of both worlds😙 just have to know how to manage them

Jamie13

Omg please propose a round 2. I'm not sorry, do not yell at me🙈🙈🙈

katastrophe

the way you captured the adhd experience of feeling like your always running out of time is so accurate like in howies mind he's more clear headed and probably thinks that sooch is thinking too far ahead in a somewhat 'irrational' way but I understand sooch. Like in his mind he knows what he can endure and thinking about it in that moment makes him see things with kind of tunnel vision. I often do this, it can feel overwhelming seeing things as a straight path and having to accomplish certain things by a certain time or else it'll get too much

Kennedy

Literally

onlylivionce

He wants it all and he wants it now. And I can’t blame him.

Meno

If bittie ever released this in a press copy, the story would likely be complete and this wouldn’t even BE a debate. She knows how her comic is going to go and which direction it’s going in. Ppl on twitter creating fan fics aren’t the author/artists of the novel/comic so no it’s not the same thing. The rewards are there for a reason. You’re acting like the novel is complete alr and it’s not and hopefully it’s no where near ending. They DO count bc they’re fem the DIRECT source of the content you’re consuming. It is canon. And yeah you’re right, maybe they won’t win the actual story, but the actual story will likely still follow this trend, it’s not like she’s gonna change her mind years after this has been stated as a fact. You’re not making any sense, her published work is not the same thing as a fan making head canon on twitter. Please don’t act slow

Victor Perez

Lol you're the one acting slow. The Twitter people I mentioned were the authors talking about their own work, but I get it. You're really invested in fictional characters and an author you don't know. It's OK. I imagine it fills a void. I hope you're happier reading this story. 😊 You're clearly too sour to have that kind of story in your actual life.

♡ShutUp☆I'mReadingBL♡

They had a previous conversation about Sooch topping bc Howie didn't want Sooch to feel like he "had" to be the bottom all the time just cuz he's smaller. But it's part of a side comic I think

izzy

Wait i don’t remember reading this convo in any of the side comics. In which one was it?
