KIRA's the special magical kid who flies and talks to animals, but Jen's an only child, a gifted child. HE'S relatable. He's The Chosen One not b/c he's a superhero but b/c he's the only Gelfling around, the adults have decided FOR him that he's The Chosen One. Right up to the end, what JEN wants to do is hang out in the woods or with the Podlings, reading and playing the flute.

okay so my great plan to render 4 different things I had "flatted out" conked out after 4+ hours including swapping location and doing a little laundry. I'm hungry.

Goodness knows why I sink so much effort into art given I don't think I have any chance of going FT professional anymore, but it's 2025, any joy you can get from not-corporate-Amerikkka is good.

so if Spider-Man is strong (listen bud) because he’s got radioactive blood, and canonically gets skin broken in fights all the time, is that a biohazard, or given say how New Yorkers get exposed to asbestos and lead from walls Rhino, Hobgoblin etc demolish in the same fights, and Galactus just tried to eat the planet, it’s pretty negligible?
