I'm also releasing a whole flock of robins for my seasonal pin drop!

There's one robin that's just regular bird colours but the rest are all pride flags from different aspects of my personal identity 😊🐦

Robin bird pins in two sizes. The colours are either bird or lesbian, trans, nonbinary, genderfae, or mostly bird but rainbows on the wingtips

I used to work at a small shop that made little plastic vampires.

There were only 2 of us working there, so I had to make every second count.

Moving all my stuff into a new place.

This comic is one of the only things I have done that I actually feel proud of,

It's such an odd feeling.

But I love it.

And I love you, so I thought I would share it with you.

1/2
Panel 1. The word Énouement is written in white, against a dark field of stars. The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows defines énouement as "the bittersweetness of having arrived here in the future, where you can finally get the answers to how things turn out in the real world—who your baby sister would become, what your friends would end up doing, where your choices would lead you, exactly when you’d lose the people you took for granted—which is priceless intel that you instinctively want to share with anybody who hadn’t already made the journey, as if there was some part of you who had volunteered to stay behind, who was still stationed at a forgotten outpost somewhere in the past, still eagerly awaiting news from the front." I think it's such a perfect word. Leave it to the French. My name, Samantha Richardson, sits in the corner of the panel, also written in white. Panel 2: A child is asleep in a dark room. There is a stuffed dinosaur lying on top of them. A Dark Crystal poster hangs on the wall behind them, as well as a childish drawing of a T.rex. Panel 3: Same scene, but a crack of light, as if from an opened door, falls across the child. Panel 4: A person dressed in a long green coat and rolled-up pants stands in the middle of the room, which is again dark. The person is carrying a duffle bag. We see dinosaurs, books, and clothing strewn across the floor. The person says, "Hey." Panel 5: The person sits on the child's bed, and we see now she is a woman with brown hair, grown out from a purple coloring job. Panel 5: Close up on the woman, who, seeming to speak to the room in general, says, "So, I know how sad you are. I know how you cry yourself to sleep some nights." "I know how angry you feel." "How scared." Panel 7: The woman picks up the stuffed dinosaur, which is green with widely-spaced, thin, purple stripe. She holds it almost timidly. Panel 8: Close-up on the dinosaur head, which has a plaid white and blue patch sewn onto the neck. The woman says, "I know what the years that are coming are going to be like." "And I am so sorry." Panel 9: The woman holds the dinosaur gently to her cheek, and a darkness seems to gather behind her. Panel 10: The darkness coalesces into a cloud over her head, and the woman buries her face into the dinosaur's back, hugging it tightly. Panel 11: The woman pulls her face away from the stuffed dinosaur, and the dark cloud appears to break up. Panel 12: The woman straightens, tears running down her face. The cloud dissipates. Panel 13: The woman offers a small smile, still crying. She says, "But..." Panel 14: There is a Boba Fett toy on the floor, a sock, a toy T.rex, and 2 issues of The Uncanny X-men comics, issues 167 and 168. The woman continues, "...You're going to have good times, too. You'll have amazing friends." Panel 15: More floor. In this panel there is a blue, hard-back cover of The Book of Mormon, and a red scripture-marking pencil. The woman says, "You're going to serve a mission in Portugal. You're gonna fall in love." Panel 16: The top of a night stand, we see a small plastic sauropod, a green army man with a bazooka, and an orange Swedish Dala horse. The woman's dialog reads: "You're going to visit Sweden. A lot." Panel 17: Floor again, where a plastic two-headed dragon battles a knight and ranger. More dialog: "And...Dungeons and Dragons. It's totally going to change your life." Panel 18: The woman is reaching hesitantly towards the child. The woman says, "And there's Jurassic Park, and SO many superhero movies, even if the X-men ones are kinda terrible."
