whatever could you possibly mean :D

*long tail goes to tickles tickles you for being first *

Second uwu

Third

Forthwith!

Fifth!!!!!!!!!!!

I was worried they were more upset.

I find it funny that she got the bait and never realized until it was waaay too late. XD

here's a baby who cant count v.v

In my bookshelf there is a very interesting book, and according with it... I can't read, nor count.

Is that every book then? Cause if you cant read hmmmmm

Who knows?

*laughs in f(x)-2 = f(y)

Math is amazing.

Althogh puns makes me numb, mathematical puns makes me number.

*laughs in husky*

Ok, not exactly a joke:

Are you made of copper and tellurium?

Because you are CuTe

I'm not sure I agree it has to be bait. It certainly was meant to be that, but there really are adults who like lollipops, too.

The fact that they both pulled her off to the side to talk, though... That's more of a giveaway than anything.

I kind of like the idea of keeping the band wondering.... and dropping hints at both "adult" and "kitten" roles.

In the end, it's not any of their business, unless Martin and Kim hire a babysitter/childminder for her..... and the person they hire is one of the band. (and even that would require her OK)

i would genda that those adults that like lollipops are littles but they dont know that they are
there's a thought for ya

Wasn't it said in reference to Mr. Clinton, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar"? It's easy to paint everyone in the world with our kink, but I don't think that's true. It's just a candy on a stick. (And I doubt anyone would have called Telly Savalas a little.... he switched to lollipops to help him quit smoking. https://metvnetwork.s3.amazonaws.co.....y_lollipop.jpg )

With that said, I'd just like to see the rest of the world accept our kink as OK... Like a couple preferring the reverse cowgirl position to the missionary, not even as unusual as BDSM (which isn't really unusual either, I don't think, at one level or another.... Kinky is tickling someone with a feather. Perverted is using the whole chicken, after all. ;) )

Hmm... I don't know what Star here is going to do, but I think it would be right to confirm to them about this relationship, BUT establish that her little side is for private moments only, and not publicly open. This way, they won't try forcing an answer or treat her like a child, and (hopefully) respect the trio's privacy.

Idk, I think she will just neither confirm or deny, seems like the best option overall, I think she wanted a time where she can forget about her little side, relax and chill. Especially after a terrible week

I love how the trio of them seem to be all nice and open with eachother. It's just so nice to see a relationship with good communication like this. I hope whatever star decides will keep her and everyone else in a nice comfy spot. Also boo on Hailey for spilling the beans.

Poor Star. She was invited to this to get her thoughts away from this sorta thing and now it's here too. Though at least here, it's in a more accepting manner.

I can picture Hailey as a rave dancer among the band. I wonder if we'll see a picture of her.

Star is smart. I'm sure that she can play this without giving away her little side.

Sly drummer. Also Star would be adorable showing her little side a bit :3

the last panel should have been something in like one of those games.

"What do you chose?

A: Be fully open about it
B: Be closed minded
C: Leave"



oh boy, I hope things turn out well in the end with no drama =/

In my experience, even people who arent into it are open minded as long as you dont expose them to it constantly, and prioritize hygiene.

There's a lot of people, more than wed like to admit- who are deeply into the lifestyle so much so that they disregard the rights, consent, and desires of others. They ruin it for the rest of us.

Meanwhile off screen im playing on a little piano from the peanuts

Heehee.

that band's really grooving :o

Honestly I get the feeling that most of the discomfort the band showed was more about the ex then the little stuff… the refusal to help , the lack of consent for outing, just grrr

literally know a Hailey IRL lmao

So when Martin talked about littles that were too absorbed into playing constantly to bring them to normal settings back at p.380 he was referring to Hailey?

Yeah, sounds like it alright.

Hailey is... Probably not based on a real person. But that kind of behavior is not just a little bit unacceptable. It may even fall under narcissistic personality abuse IE trying to isolate your target from their friends, support structure, etc......

If you want a discussion about "I don't want to be in the closet around your friends, I want to be me" that is fine. But you have to accept that your partner or care giver might respond "I'm sorry, I'm not okay with my friends knowing about that part of our relationship" and accepting that if this is something you can't work past, you might need to part ways. Just dropping a bomb shell like this could ruin someone's life. People are judgemental asshats and who knows what could happen. His friends think it's sick, they start dumping on him on social media, his workplace, his customers find out. Things spiral faster than a person could easily imagine. There's this business woman who made an insensitive but not intentionally hurtful comment on twitter before getting on a plane, when the plane landed there was text message waiting to turn in her resignation immediately because the cancel culture grabbed onto it..

Don't misunderstand me for taking a political view, but I know how cancel culture works, it is honestly kinda awful, all ideologies tend to fall into it. And if you don't care how your behavior hurts someone you love, I don't think you love them very much.

Sadly the Hailey character is based on someone from my past...and we have only just started.to get into the stuff that happened there.

I also saw another commenter who knew a Hailey, some people I think focus on their own joy and happiness and power to them, but it is invaluable to be mature too.

I'm sorry for bringing it up then.... I would love to live in a judgement free world where littles could just be them selves and all that but *shrug*... I had a close friend out a visitor they had as a little because they knew I was too and they thought it would be a fun tease for the other little's humiliation fetish. I had to kinda gently remind them "that person does not know me, and it is clear they did not want to be outed. Remember it's their secret to share when they feel safe..." Some people just don't think. Some people just don't care... The people who don't think can be helped, the ones that don't care, it's just.... better to stay out of their way.

Anyway, sorry for bringing it up, hope I didn't stir up anything too negative..

Nah its okay. im deliberately stirring this up into the comic to basically work through it in comic world, so it is gonna get negative for me, much like the marellis blackmail/assault arc was hard for me and based somewhat in reality, but it'll be cathartic by the end, just gotta get through it.

That arc was a magnificent depiction of abuse and harassment by people in power and I thank you for that.

I sometimes wonder what would have happened if things had gone the other way... like... if he hadn't instantly tried to *trigger word* Star... obviously.. There would have been a lot of room for character growth..

Like... Here you are, at a party with friends, people who know you, people you feel somewhat free from the expectations of your wife and superiors and what not. You haven't even thought about the young woman you have a mutual hostility with at work since you changed out of uniform, it's not like she's constantly in your thoughts, so there you are having a good time when someone thrusts a padded butt into your lap for you to care for and you suddenly realize who it is.. and suddenly it's all "what do I do what do I do what do I do".... I am very shy about my littles community roles, both big and little, and I would probably have a heart attack if I ran into one of my coworkers or friends..

I guess the only thing I could say would be "uh... How do you want this handled" and try not to make a scene................. Sorry, I do this with stories and books I am invested in... go down roads not walked and see where they lead... Thank you for reading my comments, I am sorry you have had to suffer through issues like you depict here, I hope the rocky road you've traveled has lead you to a safe place.

Wait, is this entire comic just an attempt at therapy?

Largely yes. They're mostly things I've experienced and I've shifted or glowed up certain aspects to make it not quite my experience but enough that I'm connected...so for example the marellis abuse arc the real guy I had a run in with actually properly sexually assaulted me, but I didn't want to draw that into the comic so instead it became a horsie ride at the party instead....so details are tweaked here or there but yeah based on reality in a lot of aspects

Poor Star really can't catch a break anywhere >< It must be really overwhelming having so many people learn about a secret without your want. At least everyone (mostly) have been supportive and loving, but I can't imagine being outed in all your circles would feel good <3

That pose on the bottom left panel... But do take your time star while aunty Kim try to adjust back to normal physics

What Hailey did was bad. On the other hand, having friends you don't have to hide things from (but also not necessarily blatantly rubbing their face in things) is nice. Just in case you slip up and leave something out, or let something slip without thinking, or start giving way too much details about a show for toddlers that someone mentioned off hand without realizing how much is "too much" for a layperson to know and everyone is like "OMG, why do you know all that and have fan theories?"

Did star just get a free pass to being in diapers around the band? Their next songs gonna be titled “soggy kitty” with star around at rehearsal ^^

So my ideal scenario is if the band is truly ok with it, they accept her for who she is and just let open up at her own speed. That being said, I don't fault the drummer, the gesture over all is sweet even if there are some questionable motives. Overall, giving a lollipop is pretty harmless

That reasonable, the band is trying to look out for their bandmates/friends because they don't want to see Kim and Martin get hurt again. It's understandable that groups of friends, co-workers and acquaintances get to know the other one's partner just to see if their a good person.

One thing is the band knows about Martin and Kim's age play dynamic and the other is that fact that their ex was chaotic and hurtful because of the break-up that effected Martin and Kim. The band wants to get to know Star if she's a little and get to know here as a person. The previous 2 pages already show that fact Star helped out more than the ex-ever did. The bad doesn't want their bandmates/friends get hurt again.

Unless of course they have the flier too with a picture of Star dressed as a baby for tomorrow's charity event, then they are putting 2 and 2 together.

I can understand what Satimo was doing. Hailey was the band's introduction to littles and ABDL, so it may have set a precedent in Satimo's mind of how littles behave. So from his point of view, maybe he was being sensitive/subtle.

But it still feels like a violation of the personal sphere that he tried to get that information out of her that way.

I feel like one way Star could handle this is to say something like: "Listen, I realize you are all very curious so let's clear the air. Yes, I am a little to Kim and Martin. But this dynamic stays between us 3 only so I would appreciate if you didn't dig deeper."

I'm not sure she will though because something like that would require a degree of self-assurance with regards to her king that I am not sure Star has yet. It's a long road to be that at peace with yourself.

I also don't see anything wrong with star just telling them "mind your own business, my private life is private" I mean, Satimo did cross a line with trying to fish out a reaction through deceptive means, the only reason, it seems, he gave her the candy was to find out if she was a little, if star dosent want them to know her little side, then they should respect that, and respect her privacy.

I love how you played with the angle in the last panel, it feels a lot more dynamic and really punches the emotion through. Well done.

called it but its nice to know the band is very chill about it

I can't name one person who would deny a lollipop

Right? Its free candy

It's prob just coz the hair is going over the eye. But kim looks like her eyes have turned to horror static mode you see in some shows. But with tho's lowered ears, it just looks like shes exstremly worried.

Cant wait to see the thought bubbles in next page showing Stars thoughts, what do you lot think she'll pick outa the 3 options ?

Regardless of Star's decision, part of me still wants to see Satimo get a dressing down from Martin later. His dialogue on page 492 suggests he was debating whether Star was a little with the rest of the band well before arriving at the pub, and then he crossed a line that intrudes into his bandmate's private life. His curiousity is going a bit far here, it would seem...

dont worry Satimo will pay for his unbridled curiosity :D

Man I feel for star, I'm not prone to panic attacks even in the slightest, but this would enduce a panic attack for me if my little side was ever found out. I especially feel for star as she has more to lose than any of the band members, she already had a terrible week, and this just piles on top of it.

5 more pages until page 500 woo

I think this is one of my biggest anxieties. Discussion behind my back about something I'd rather keep private. People speculating and making rumors about me and what I'm into. Worst of all is when people can make pretty strong conclusions about it and the way they treat you changes.

I suspect the band members will just treat conversations with her like it's a game to figure her out in the least amount of words instead of having actual conversations.

You figure stuff out, nonprescription on you if you d9nt want to reveal everything

it is 4 am, i have read the entirety of the series up to this point. i mut go to work tomorrow. god is not in my room

I appreciate this page, it's a good reminder of boundaries and social awareness

uuh boy... im not sure what to say. im curious about the next page how things work out after the rehearsal....

Just wanted to say u have a < b > from basic that is black and not green.

FYI love the comic hope this helps. Keep going if u need a chat or inspiration I be happy to chat.

That dynamic between these three and their fetish and real life is quite interesting..

I've heard of relationships between 3 people but more in the BDSM community.. it is not so easy, because so many emotions go with it.. But Star is a strong girl.. i think she should tell the band..what's going on.. but "You are not someone elese or someone eleses faults".

She is very unsure about what to think I kinda hope she feels safe to be little even if it isn't every time

I hope varden is ok

i'm kinda hoping she tries to drop hints and let them figure it out

she took the bait!

I hope Star admits to being little, but also calls the guy out for treating her like their Ex.... seriously not cool

As a person who's EXTREMELY private about the "other side" of them; OUTING someone is NEVER okay.
I have a very public job, so if I'm ever outed. The career I've just now begun to finally build, is over!

Nice
