oh yeah smoking angst my beloved - a2 probably started carrying around a lighter for a1 as early as this 😭😭

charlie

now is not the time to get horny thinking about the cowboy comic

Em

Not manual labor for our princess!

charlie

their age difference is so stark here. like not just in appearance but i feel like we’re getting a glimpse at just how………. sheltered? a2 is through a1s sheer force of will. like a1s done so much to keep a2 from dealing with the same shit he did and now a2 is facing down that barrel without even knowing the full extent of it?

Em

Honestly, it’s a decent antidote for the sadness.

Caoimhe

of course an orphanage run by nuns would let the kids get sent off to farms as sources of unpaid labor

Em

I guess it’s no wonder they don’t wanna take the tiny, sickly kid too

vatican

im kicking and screaming drawing this, i miss tessellate

vatican

a1 doing his best impression of a grown up my beloved

charlie

i love dramatic irony

charlie

PLEASE HURRY LEAVE ME I CANT BREATHE

vatican

the added irony of a1 finally being resigned to being too old to be adopted only for this to happen ahahaha

Jess

I don’t think they meet eyes once ☹️ the 92 polaroid looks farm-y I don’t like this new family already

vatican

ive really tried to emphasize that in their '92 designs, this is the dynamic theyre kinda stuck with for the rest of their lives, at least on a1's end

vatican

the children long for labor

Ciggie

Not even looking at him while responding 🥹 the speech bubbles make it feel like the words are reluctantly coming outta him. A1 looks so captivating in these shots, and A2's eyes are just looking flatter and flatter with each page 💧👄💧

charlie

that’s such a good way of describing it like……. the light is fading from his eyes?? 👀 also a1 is just so austerely heartbreakingly stunning

vatican

asian american eldest daughter lesbian a1 my beloved

vatican

a2 is trying so hard not to crash out ahahaaha

charlie

true love is stored in the impulse control 😔

Rav

Oh this is heartbreaking and his dark dark eyes

Em

A2 in that second panel looks like the embodiment of “go limp when you fall to make it cause less damage” like complete bodily relaxation to avoid the inevitable pain. Dissociation-core

ElectronicMilkshakeWhispers

I don’t know why I was genuinely hoping for a loving adoptive family, but I kinda was. Anyway, the way A2 looks at A1 reminds me of chapter four, page seven.

vatican

ehehehe….definitely… not on purpose at all… 👀👀👀👀

charlie

nah because the way a2 is fighting the urge to tackle a1 off this roof the same way he was fighting the urge to drive them off the road is actually devastating

vatican

i was hoping someone would notice tho, so for real, thank u ahahaha

vatican

they are both dissociating so hard here, barely tethered

vatican

the clear blue sky and the tumultuous sea

gemini

wow, that connection! the mind of a mastermind 🙂‍↕️

gemini

the way they are both just dissociating into a completely different realm of existence 😭

vatican

its like a1s already left 😭😭😭

SailorSuu

🥲 We were just having so much fun…

vatican

we will have more fun soon 😭

Timonger

I need to eat this entire comic 🙃

vatican

nooooo dont eat my comic i worked so hard on it 😭😭😭

Alec

FARM??? FARMBOY A1????? OH you have given me a GIFT

Alec

wait 🥺

🅱

Stg if those are tears in a2's eyes then ur gonna have to put em up 🥊

Sabrina

I can see the gears turning in a2’s head. Thoughts are being thunk and I WANNA KNOW

Sabrina

Why are they so bad at communicating. I cri

L

CHARLIE!!!!!!! I think about this all the time, I think it’s why I find a1 so compelling

vatican

dont hurt me im just a little rat

charlie

i find a1 sooooooooo compelling—a2 is so violently a personification of the hyperbolic level all of my worst qualities and intrusive thoughts that i can’t help but adore him. a1 is so gutwrenchingly……. idk obviously he is also not a good guy but he loves (a2 at least lmfao) with his whole fucking heart and the way he’s willing to burn the world in order to protect a2 from the people that would hurt him is devastating. their love for each other is their only redeeming quality but it is also the very foundation of their being so anyways it makes me want to chew glass.

L

Yeah and I think the tension between like….genuine love and care for each other and being each others family vs like theyre so codependent and it’s so evil for a child to have to become parentified like this and like maybe a2 “gets” a1 but he’ll never understand what their relationship did to a1. And so a1 just has to struggle with it entirely alone. BECAUSE THEY DONT COMMUNICATE LMAO

charlie

em and i were discussing whether or not a2 is aware of just how bad he is for a1–like from taking away his childhood to enabling his codependency to being one of the reasons why a1 can’t live a relatively ‘normal’ life. and a1 would never want to place that burden of understanding on a2 but at the same time he resents the fact that a2 will never understand and never had to go through the things he did.

vatican

there is no greater pleasure than reading blondie meta love this

L

I literally think about them every day
