Another return to form, panel free scribble comic. Shyam buying tea for a friend she definitely, TOTALLY doesn't have a crush on, at the point in the story this is from. Shyam is ironically a lot more confident and assertive around centaurs than Talita is.

Love the S trunk curl of Suspicion in that last panel!

shyam getting talita a gift 🥺 going to the effort of finding a centaur market to get something she can consume 🥺

I love so incredibly much how you acknowledge that having different biochemistry means that the different sophonts can't share any kind of complex food. I can't think of any other sci fi IP that does this and it really adds to the feeling of this being a world.

I love the centaur shopkeepers markings, and how they're both suspicious of and worried for Shyam, thinking shes going to drink it XD

I'm loving the "leaning on the countertop" poses of the shopkeep - it's fun to see what an "extra" joint does to such simple things as rest positions!

I bet the shopkeeper still thinks she's gonna try and eat it

I'm so enamored with your centaur designs, they're so unique and have such beautiful faces with the stripes and antlers and AAA eating up every crumb of centaur lore you post

If someone took the time to learn about food that wouldn't make me sick [I have so many stupid digestive issues] and then bought me tea I would ask them to marry me. This is so sweet!

i have a massive fascination with alien food and i've devoured the stuff you've already written so more new concepts like this comic get me soooo much

My god this is so cute!! Guess that’s one benefit of never fitting in with your own people; interacting with aliens feels a lot less daunting.

OOH is it like Tibetan butter tea?

Krangis

Does this take place on Naya Pradesh?

I am having a bad day at work so I came to re-read this. Now I’m in a good mood again thank you! :)

Shyam is so wholesome. I love the shopkeeper being like "Human I s2g if you ingest this..."

Bambi

Honestly this is SO sweet!! <3 I love the way Shayam shows love - I'm so excited for when she is introduced!!

I always love seeing examples of centaur body language in action because it’s easy when you only see Talita emoting to not think about how human her body language is; it just seems natural from a human-centric viewpoint that everybody would emote the same way because that’s how people emote! But getting to see a centaur who’s (presumably) been raised by/around other centaurs interact with a character we’re familiar with really highlights how odd Talita must come across to other centaurs and people used to them.

I end up scrolling through your patreon A LOT because I'm always trying to reference your stuff when my friends talk about world building and i ALWAYS stop to look at this comic <3 <3 <3 I'm obsessed with the word "tea" having such a wide meaning and the ink

I love this so much. Shyam wanting to get something nice for Talita, and getting to see a Centaur who doesn't copy human gestures is so delightful. I especially like how their eyes get wide which comes off as confused or surprised, coupled with curling their trunk to the sides which I dont believe has a specific meaning but kinda seems to come up in questioning or surprised context, a sort of "huh"/"huh?". Oh and I really like the last drawing, where the Centaur isn't doing a full angry S trunk but is like partially there, it comes off as either annoyed or stern - maybe more stern, I feel like if they were annoyed they'd go full S trunk. Very cool, love this!
