Casey is definitely not intended to be the sensitive one when it comes to her and Bria's relationship. But I imagine Casey's heart being in the right place as she's blurting out Bria's secrets here. Casey trusts Switch so completely that it sort of doesn't occur to her that she's blabbing to someone Bria sees as a stranger.

I wondered if Bria might be coming off a little uncharacteristically standoffish meeting Switch. Casey and Bria are in the most open relationship in the comic. But upon hearing the specifics of the display Casey put on in front of everyone, to me it made sense that Bria would be unnerved that Casey apparently is THAT close with someone she's never even heard of.

To me this page also reminds me once again what a nightmare it would be to have breasts like this in real life. They would get in the way of whatever you're trying to do constantly. 

This is a bit of a side note here, but this is the first page of TRW drawn entirely in Clip Studio Paint. In fact, this is the first comic page I've ever made with anything but some form of Photoshop. After over a decade, I have finally made the change over to new paint software.

In some ways it was an easy call to make. Adobe has consistently proven to be a cartoonishly evil corporation that offers the most expensive option on the market with its monthly subscription. In other ways there was a reason I put this off for years. The ins and outs of Photoshop, the tricks, hotkeys and workarounds are so burned into my muscle memory that learning new software is like trying to eat pizza with chopsticks. This page took twice as long to make as usual largely in part to my having to fire up Youtube tutorial or go forum diving every time something didn't work the way I wanted it to.

But in the end, I did it. I've learned a lot about Clip Studio this week and I think the next page will go faster. Rant over. I hope you like the page!
