26th Dec 2020, 11:00 AMHa that was a bit of a weird chapter ending lol. Happy Boxing Day!! How was everyone’s Christmas?
So there’s gonna be a hopefully short hiatus before I start chapter 4–I wanna finish up some other things and figure out some life stuff for now. Thanks so much for all the fun comments!
26th Dec 2020, 11:29 AMLOL when I saw that preview of 2nd-panel-Xan I thought you were just joking around. Never thought that face would appear in the actual comic!
26th Dec 2020, 11:43 AMMan, that guy is a creep. Who smiles gleefully while hating on kids? I can see why Kairo wants to spend as little time with him as possible.
I hope you had a great Christmas! Mine was pretty good. Here in the U.S., we don't really observe Boxing Day, but I hope it's a good one for you.
26th Dec 2020, 12:05 PMI think he was smiling like that to mimic the “cutesy” sort of faces that kids might make, but in a mocking way. But yeah he doesn’t like kids—he also doesn’t really like anyone though haha XD
Overall, mine was pretty good too, we made good memories...and a few not so good ones—in a large family things can get a little stressful, but it doesn’t mean we still didn’t have some great moments. I’m happy with it!
Yeah Boxing Day isn’t much of a holiday here either except maybe for some people to take advantage of all the sales when they’re shopping. To me it’s just a part of Christmas, like the festive spirit’s still in the air. :)
26th Dec 2020, 12:07 PMWell, that was prophetic!! Haha we’re going to deal with this very issue in the next chapter—Kat’s very trusting already, meanwhile Evan though...
26th Dec 2020, 12:15 PMKat trusts him because he stood up for her and protected her.
Evan is a different story, and he's actually the one who needs the help the most.
26th Dec 2020, 12:21 PMYes! I also think Kat is a very trusting person partly because she is naïve, but also because she has a firm belief that we should try to believe the best about people.
26th Dec 2020, 12:10 PMKids can be a bit overwhelming, but I love them, ‘cause they’re also adorable, precious, and for whatever reason they tend to like being around me, so...yay?
26th Dec 2020, 12:02 PMKairo: "Ok, let's see how you're progressing, short timers."
Evan: ????
Kat: "What do you mean, "short timers"?
Kairo: "Uhh......I meant your training! Yeah, that's it! You've been progressing so well you'll be done training soon. (whew)"
26th Dec 2020, 3:04 PMHahaha that preview of his “cute” face finally appears xD. Great final page!
So Kairo’s weirded out, but again probably not at the point where he suspects something outright nefarious if I had to guess .. ah yeah I think despite his slight gruffness those two will grow on him :)
26th Dec 2020, 4:53 PMXan... s-stop that... x'D (i remember seeing that face in your previews and I thought "what on earth might be the context for that??" xD)
Ahahaha... Kairo, it's too late, you're already doomed to grow fond of them.
...I'm actually worried about Evan, though. I have a horrible feeling that Evan might finally learn to trust, and he'll trust Kairo, and then that trust will be broken, and this is not going to end well....
26th Dec 2020, 5:07 PMI mainly drew that just for fun! Sometimes I gotta be a little silly to get it out of my system XD I also kinda wanted to try drawing shoujo eyes for some reason. (Heck of a test subject, I know)!
Aw T — T we’ll see what happens, stories don’t always play out exactly as we expect, even when we can see the buildup! (At least that’s what I’ve experienced).

You won't be any help at all to these kids until they feel they can trust you completely, so.... Good luck with that!

You are 100% correct about Evan though...
