Kris Greg

We now understand more of Kris' thoughts & experiences. Nice.

Ben is starting feels Chris' presence at the same time Kris at "least within her" see Chris trying metaphorically trying to resurface, but no avail. Kris knows doesn't want her past as Chris overshadowed her future as Kris. She is letting Ben know that even though can't go back to her previous life, but at the same time Ben is coming to terms with Chris being Kris. Can wait to see how caught up with Alan in the next chapter?

Kris Greg

You worded what I was basically thinking so much better than I did that I can feel that I didn't get enough sleep last night. LOL!

Tiki D

Emory, I have a couple interesting "What if" ideas for Homecoming. What if Ben or Alan was captured early instead of Ben? It could be a Pin-up or a short couple of pages One Shot.

Jade Diaz

Kris deserves a medal for how patiently she is walking dumdum Ben through how the world treats women.

Erica Rost

I don't know if Chris was a happy man, but Kris is a happy woman.

Kristine Marie Bowman is certainly one very attractive woman. I particularly loved the image 8 of Kris in the red dress, such a pretty face, and I loved her casual but alluring body stance as she spoke to ‘one of the regulars.’ The parallels she draws between ‘The Basement’ and her work at the ‘Full Rack,’ specifically in relation to Kris insights into the misogynistic attitudes that can subtly and not so subtly present in everyday life certainly set Ben back and must have been hard for him to hear. You certainly also make your readers think Emory at a deeper level about our culture and some of the mores present in everyday life and attitudes in society. But after saying that I wanted to add just how pretty Kris looks. I liked the teaser you dropped when the flow of conversation faltered when Kris seemed Ito have been startled. What was that about? This certainly has kept us all intrigued and made us revisit again what is real and what parts of Kris’s story is fabricated, and if so, for what reason?

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Gemma! More from me later… But if you wanted to know why she’s startled look to the window. 😊

Gemma

Ohh, now I see! Is that Chris? Now I am even more intrigued around trying to interpret the underlying psychological meanings around this image of Chris appearing to be trapped on the other side of the glass. Ironically, for many of us, it often is, and or can be, the female physical representation of ourselves that is trapped on the other side of the glass

Emory Ahlberg

It is! Just like how Chris saw Kris in mirrors sometimes…

The art is next level, not just because it's technically good, but because the emotions you draw out of the characters. You could almost tell the story without dialogue. It's heartbreaking stuff and keeps up intrigue about the characters and their motivations. So very very good.

Another wonderful episode, Emory. Not only is Kris schooling Ben on the reality of life as a single young woman having to rely on her own wits and resources, starting from zero, but in your terrific illustrations she’s showing her absolute strength and determination to succeed against all odds. And in that regard it’s the classic male versus female/choose the bear debate, in which Ben comes out poorly as a typically unaware male. It’s very skilfully done. The other thing which emerges from this chapter, which speaks very highly of Kris, is her self discipline and forbearance in not rushing immediately to Alan, but instead establishing herself first as an independent person, and also seeking to ensure that Alan’s feelings for her are absolutely genuine, and not simply fantasies locked in Bella’s basement. She is an outstanding person, with the highest moral standards and integrity, as well as remarkable levels of patience, courage and compassion. I love the care and thought that you put into constructing your characters and plots, Emory. It’s what makes your stories stand out from all the others. You truly are an exceptional author and artist. xxx

Kirsten Roberts

Everyone has already said it better than I could, just amazing!!! Knocked it out of the park, this story is the best thing youve ever done and that is saying a lot all things considered

Gemma

Well said

2026-09-14 23:00 It was really fun to read. I love how deep is the story of kris. i just don't understand the guy that was punching the door. Is it kris allucinating chris's reaction?

Now the prey is becoming the predator......interesting :-) x

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Kris... I really enjoy going deeper into Kris's mindset... she's so different from Chris in a lot of ways, but I think she's still very caring

Emory Ahlberg

I think of Chris's presence at this stage as a kind of haunting. For Ben, he's haunted by the friend he lost and can't reconcile that memory with the powerful woman sitting in front of him. So he keeps looking for traces of Chris, for that familiar ghost, because it's easier than confronting the complex reality.

Emory Ahlberg

That sounds like a fun idea, Tiki! I do like those... Maybe for October!

Emory Ahlberg

Do you think Chris was this oblivious? (probably)

Emory Ahlberg

💖 Well-said, Erica... at least if she can put this whole thing behind her...

Emory Ahlberg

I know this is 3 weeks later but thank you so much, Crystal! I really do think of the art and the script as two separate characters in a way, and they don't always agree. So much of Chris and Kris's story is internal. For a long time in the basement, they literally aren't even allowed to speak, so their entire existence is communicated through their expression, the way they hold themselves, the fear in their eyes. The art has to (try to) show you what the words can't say.

Emory Ahlberg

Two weeks later, but... Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words, Robert! You've completely zeroed in on the dynamic I wanted to create with Ben. His reaction isn't just a simple case of male cluelessness, though there's certainly an element of that. For his whole life, he and Chris navigated the world with a certain kind of armor that privilege affords. Now he's confronted with Kris, who is living the reality of the "bear in the woods" every single day, and his brain just short-circuits. His only solution is to try and turn her back into Chris, because that's a world he understands and that he thinks is safe. He can't yet grasp that the person in front of him is a survivor who has already learned to navigate that forest alone... she doesn't need a guide to lead her back to the entrance, she needs someone to walk alongside her on the new path she's forging.

Emory Ahlberg

Wow, Kirsten, sorry for the late reply (I read faster than I can reply) but that's an incredible thing to hear. Thank you so much for that! I have to admit, Homecoming feels different to write. I really wanted to push past a simple revenge or survival story. For me, the real heart of it isn't just what was done to Chris, but what grew out of him in response. Kris isn't just an alternate personality, she's also this idea that identity isn't a fixed point. It's something that can be shattered, reformed, and even forged in the most horrific circumstances. It's a story about the ugly, painful, and sometimes beautiful process of building a new person when your old life has been burned to the ground. Knowing it's hitting this hard for you guys means everything, because it's a story that lives very close to my own heart.

Kris Greg

Did writing this response hurt your brain a little? Could it be that I'm so exhausted after a rough day that I'm easily amused? LOL

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Nolwen! Well, this isn't just some random hallucination - that is Christopher breaking through. At that moment, Kris is deep in the process of building her own story, her own truth of what happened. She's framing her survival as a transformation, a becoming. But for the part of her that is still Chris, that narrative feels like a profound betrayal. When he's pounding on that window screaming "STOP LYING" (what I had in my script) he's screaming because from his perspective, she is. He's still in there, and he's the part that remembers only the violation and the loss, not the emergence of a new self. I see it as the two sides of their shared trauma at war. Kris is the identity that fought, adapted, and found a way to live with the new reality. Chris is the ghost of the life that was stolen, and he refuses to let Kris reinterpret his suffering as anything other than pure tragedy.

Emory Ahlberg

Hehe - Yep! For three years, Kris learned those skills. Her life depended on anticipating a client's desires, reading Bella’s moods, and understanding the unspoken rules of her captivity. Those senses don't just turn off when the cage door opens. So now, out in the world, she's weaponizing them. She's turning the hyper-vigilance of a victim into the focus of a hunter.

Emory Ahlberg

LMAO - It was a bit of a rough day for me also, Kris... so it helped! 😂

Kris Greg

Making another person feel even slightly better makes me feel better. I hope that your tomorrow is at least 10 times better than today was rough.

Jade Diaz

Incredible question and yep, I sure do
