In which Shine realizes People...can Look at Him. Whoa.

Yanno what's dumb? I draw his pose under that cloak EVERY TIME. I even color and shade it, too, just in case. Eez dumb. Oh whale. Maybe someday, Shine will stop wearing the cloak! I can only dream...

Sorry, this is yet another page where I'm not sure what to say without wandering into possible spoiler territory. Um, I realized when I realized I accidentally drew Rae's hair in a low ponytail last page that she actually has the same hairstyle as the old avatar character I had whose personality she ended up inheriting, and that I'm just drawing the bangs differently...and it's a high ponytail instead of a low one. Like, she's even got the same hair color, but those ear danglies? THOSE EAR DANGLIES. Those are like, Tsuki trademark, and I didn't even realize it until muscle memory was like, "Yeah, ponytail goes down here, done." And I looked back at the old Tsuki's Shorts pages and just...yup. No wonder my arm remembered low ponytail. I drew it enough, over those fifty pages and other art besides! Heck! I'm just gonna lean into it now.

Holy balls, I should draw a baby highschooler Rae from her goth days and give her the Tsuki eye...marking...things. That I actually wore as a little gothling back in the day! Aw, man, that'd be adorable.
