I had to rewrite this and the next page because originally it was a live phone call, but then I did math and realized that the light speed lag would make live internet calls impossible, which is fine, because thematically it drives home how it's kind of miserable to live out here.

Anyways Idrisah ghosted her mom for two weeks because she didn't want to tell her she couldn't make it to the reunion, and in doing so she has made things so much worse.

I am seeing a RUNNING THEME HERE with our protagonists -scratches my chin- (I am loving the depth we get to see of everyone in the story aaah)

Talita having super hearing must be really awkward sometimes,,,,

Mannnn that’s hitting so close to home tbh. Putting off a dreaded call so long that it becomes an issue of its own. I feel you Idrisah, I still fall into that trap at nearly 30.

Alsoooo I’m realizing that Talita’s antlers grew in so fast!! If Eid was only a few weeks back then they must’ve grown in in under a month!

God this makes me wonder how much stuff Talita is hearing that she wishes she didn’t. No wonder she’s so anxious

Damn, there's something about Idrisah's mom recording a message and just shooting them off into space that makes this "conversation" even worse... no opportunity to speak up and respond, just listening to the other person going through their own thoughts. I feel like that actually makes this sequence hit even harder than a realtime phone conversation!

Well somebody is getting grounded. Also I almost forgot Talita got better hearing than humans do, meaning she is hearing the whole conversation.

Ooooof, the second hand guilt and anxiety is hitting HARD
