*thumps up*

Awesome

good work on the comic

Very lovely ending, perfect setup for a sequel some day.

Cherry needs their own comic. Though I'm also enjoying the mental image of them eventually dressing up for Halloween as a mech and pilot duo.

God, im crying tears of joy from this ending. Good job

\o3o\ Happiest of joys!!!

Absolutely beautiful maybe your best work yet

Very nice story. I'm looking forward to your next creative venture.

A good read, and a great watch. You knocked it out of the park.

Yay! She's gonna go up on the roof again and eyeball the sun.

Is he moving out or are those squares just where old paintings were?

The highest honor I can bestow

Such a sweet ending

Fantastically lovely sweet strip!

The wholesome cheesiness is what I come for. I hope they get to appear together in one-off pictures or strips from time to time. Just to see their progress. <3

Thanks for joining me for the ride. I think we all deserve a bit of cheese in our lives. Things for me have often either been too serious with a heavy weight, or just lacking of that gentle, playful, and silly kind of love. A kind of vulnerability I would want to see more in the world.

And yeah, I'm thinking on doing little things here and there of them in the future. I know a lot of people want to see Mary Sue transform into something "better" but there's something that sticks with me. That when it comes to harm and pain, when you've been turned into something terrible, you can't ever really go back to what you were. The memories and scars never go away. But you can still be beautiful as who you are, and be accepted for the beauty in your heart that radiates even the things you thought were ugly and bad about yourself.

You are welcome. Your stories have been a delight. The sad and the happy meshing well together. That's the fun of experimenting. You can make it intense and passionate, or playful and teasing. You have shown you can handle mixing different characters together.

That is a lovely message of acceptance. Whatever little tidbits you make with all the characters you have created I am sure will be gobbled up with love and excitement. Keep being you, Shane.

I hardly hope you gonnae continue this story with a new chapter !

Sequal, Sequal! If not full sequal maybe some moments witht hem after thos. Loving some these comics you have.

an amazing little story.

Aw, thank you for giving your time and reading!

Great story, slowly going though your back catalauge. I have two questions: is the creature living in the house called mary sue (from backstory and luke) or warm (from herself)? Also is the concept of warm here an intentional referance to flutter, or is it just a common theme?

Hey, bless! Hope you enjoy the stories! Her name is Mary Sue, but I can see the confusion here since she's more focused on Luke's warmth than her identity at the time.

As for the theme of being warm, it is more a symbolic theme here as becoming cold to others, losing warmth of life, etc.
