I’m Not Sure How Many Have Heard About The Drama Involving Sagutoyas, A Well Known Animator In The

I’m not sure how many have heard about the drama involving Sagutoyas, a well known animator in the WC MAP community, so far. But for those who don’t know, unfortunately there is a Twitter thread highlighting strong evidence that suggests Sagutoyas was involved in an online relationship with a minor. The relationship itself was not explicitly sexual, but was without a doubt a romantic one where they referred to each other as their “partner” The key information here is that Sagu was aware of the minor’s age, even acknowledging their concern about wider parties finding out about the relationship. Another key fact is that Sagu, again with the knowledge that this was a minor, sent them numerous NSFW artworks.

I am beyond disappointed to see this kind of behaviour from an artist I looked on with admiration, and I hope those affected are able to move on from this terrible period.

To be a man you do NOT have to:

Have short hair.

Bind your chest.

Have amab body parts.

Grow facial hair.

To be a man you DO have to:

Defend your Clan, even with your life.

Hunt only on your own Clan's territory.

Feed the Elders, Queens, Kits and the sick before you or your apprentice.

Kill prey only to eat.

A comic featuring the characters Odile and Siffrin from the game In Stars and Time. Odile is a tall older woman with light skin, straight black hair pulled into a bun, rectangular glasses, and a long coat with large sleeves. Siffrin is a small, androgynous, young-looking adult with light skin and chin-length wavy white hair with the ends dyed black. He has an eyepatch over his left eye and is dressed in a white cloak.
Panel 1: The two are talking while sitting on the floor of a dark brick room with motes of magical light floating around. Odile is looking at Siffrin with a relaxed posture and a neutral face, while Siffrin is looking down and away from her with a sad expression. He asks, “What you said earlier, do you really care about...? … Never mind…” The speech bubble font gets smaller as the text goes on. He’s fidgeting with the brim of his wizard-like hat resting on his lap.

Panel 2: The camera angle shifts to point towards Odile, who’s narrowed her eyes at Siffrin with a stern expression. She says, “Siffrin,” in bold text with an angular speech bubble. Siffrin flinches and ducks his head. The camera being on his blind side means you can’t see his eye, but his eyebrows are pinched together and his mouth is pressed into a wavy line. He grips the brim of his hat harder.

Panel 3: The camera angle is the same, but now Odile’s face is softer and sympathetic. She says, “Of course we care about you,” with a round speech bubble and regular font. Siffrin’s shoulders have slumped and he looks more relaxed, but his head is still hung with a sad expression. He’s still firmly gripping the brim of his hat.

Panel 4: The same camera angle. Now Odile is reaching up to grab her own speech bubble from the previous panel. It still says, “Of course we care about you,” and it’s deforming like it’s made of cloth. Her mouth is closed, indicating she’s not actually speaking. Her eyes are sharp and intimidating, and she’s maintaining intense eye contact with Siffrin. Her posture has shifted like she’s getting ready to stand up. Siffrin has whipped around to look up at the speech bubble and his face is no longer in view. He’s leaning away from Odile slightly.

Panel 5: The camera has shifted to a high angle slightly behind Odile, who is now up on her knees looming over Siffrin. She’s gripping the “Of course we care about you” speech bubble by the tail and has it raised up behind her head, preparing to swing down and hit Siffrin with it. Her loose coat flares out behind her from the motion. Siffrin has stumbled and is lying on his side, staring up at Odile with his eye and mouth wide open in shock. He’s trying to scramble away from her while shielding his head with his arms. The hat that was on his lap is now on the ground between the two, and his cloak is bunched up awkwardly underneath him.

Do you ever wish you could beat into a character's head that they're loved? Because I sure wanted to beat Siffrin during my first playthrough of In Stars and Time. Then I thought about that figure of speech too literally, laughed at my own joke, and now here's me using Odile as a proxy to do just that. :)

I absolutely adore Odile's "you will be safe and happy and that is a threat" approach to emotional support. Her and Siffrin's dynamic in general is just chef's kiss.

Sorry about your hat, Siffrin, but it was destroying my panel composition when I tried to put it on your head.

Dev requests to be @'ed with fan art, so @insertdisc5 YEET

For being rusty with art I'm really happy with this! That last panel in particular was very new territory for me but I think it came out good! I'm happy with the movement between panels in general. And look at me! Drawing backgrounds!! Wahoo!!

I drew these panels incredibly out of order, so you can see my art style and amount of effort fade in and out as you read, lmao. I tried to stay authentic to the game's style, but sort of gave up and let my style bleed through on the action-y panels. It just felt right. Gives it emphasis. :P

I'm new to writing screen reader image alt text, so feedback is welcomed. Sorry again to Siffrin because I forced myself to he/him them only to avoid confusion, but it felt bad! My fellow they/he, I have wronged you.

Time spent working on this comic was...... 33 hours and 18 minutes. I blame the rust, learning how to draw these characters on the fly, and figuring out the perspective on those bricks, oh my god.

Have some close-ups of my fave panels as thanks for clicking the read-more, mwa
