FUCK THIS COMIC IS TOO WHOLESOME
Thier Story, even more wholesome content, correct responce to creeper culture
I wish I could be as straight forward as Sun Jing
But as cute as Qui Tong :D
re: Thier Story, musing, gender things.
I struggle, sometimes with this comic though. At times (especially with how slow it updates) it feels like Sun Jing is just a genderswapped trope-y boy?
That being said, having read every page (often several times over) that feeling never sticks. And in an invert of these kinds of comics (at least that I've read) she's our perspective character, not Qui Tong.
I like her a lot, and she feels like a bit genderfluid/nonconforming rather than just lesbian. I wonder if the artist or her in-character are unaware of that sort of gender stuff.Some of her internal monolgue sort of implies the artist is aware and at least thinking she's somewhere in there too....
But that may be in the translation too, or being stamped down a bit by it? Hm.
re: Thier Story, further musing, gender things, sexuality and self image
I'm a toll (6' almost exactly), and I wish I were smoll.
I want to be the one being held in another girl's lap and it's rather heartbreaking to know my just general body mass makes that hard to do. At all. Losing some weight helps but like, 6' worth of bones is a lot of weight for someone else's thighs.
I'm honestly a little scared of being "the boyfriend" of the relationship, I've been it in the past and it fucking killed me inside.
Confidence in being me, and not trying to live up to labels. Something I wish I had. I'm working on it. Trying to.
re: Thier Story, it's good, go read it
So here we are after THAT.
All in all, I'm still impressed how impactful this little comic is for me. Especially since it's just the side story of a m/m comic that I had a hard time really caring much about.
But if you want to go on the journey I'd really suggest starting at page 1 and enjoying Sun Jing growing into the girl she is now:
