[panel 1: a cartoonishly drawn child wearing a pink t-shirt and black spandex shorts sits on a grassy hillside, nearly resting their back against the verdant scene. They put their weight on their elbow and pluck a flower from the grass with a smile.]
[panel 2: they lean over the flower and, whilst plucking petals, say “Loves me… Loves me not… Loves me… Loves me not…”
[panel 3: they point at the flower and focus their attention further.]
[panel 4: their finger wags at the petals as they enumerate and whisper “Loves me… Loves me not.]
[panel 5: they sit up and glance about to see if anyone is watching]
[panel 6: they simultaneously tear off two leaves and say “Loves me…”]
[panel 7: the flower shouts at the now sobbing child, “HEY, HEY, HEY. NO CHEATING! YOU ALREADY KNOW YOU’RE NOT LOVED!”]
Ouch dude…
I was not expecting to be attacked like this.
I come for the comic strips but I stay for the text descriptions.
I have no clue whether I’ve helped any disabled folks enjoy an intrinsically visual medium but if it aids in the entertainment of others, I dig that.
If I had this read aloud to me and closed my eyes, I would be positively transported by the richness of your descriptions.
Thank you! That’s quite possibly the kindest compliment I’ve received on this website. I hope someone brightens your day as you have mine.
Look for flowers with an odd number of petals. There are two visible in the comic!
Every. Ducking. Time.
Don’t trust its friendliness pellets.
