CH10P19

Bitter sweet time skip. Nana </3

I know it's super rare for person diagnosed with dementia to live as long as Nana has, but she's a female character, so. 100% concentrated power of will B)

Very pleased with how young teen!Jaden looks UuU She's about 12/13ish and just starting highschool, while Jacob (5 y/o) is entering Reception, the intermediate between preschool and grade 1

Lil meme doodle based on some reactions I've been getting to this page XD

  1. i’m in emotional pain!! poor jaden :’(( and poor nana!!

    1. Its a heavy page for sure πŸ’”

  2. The coloring on the umbrella is very satisfying to look at, I keep coming back to look at it. Sorry it has to be on this page, I also keep putting myself in Jaden’s shoes and it’s too painful to think about how much hardship she’s faced. Even in present day she’s still getting the short stick, some women are dealt unlucky cards in life, and despite this they are strong enough not to turn into cruel unpleasant people the way men do. Can’t wait to see her happy ending.

    1. You’re so sweet! I can’t take credit for that as my good friend on tumlbr @arbustorum did it for me. She’s offered herself up as an art assistant of sorts and really helped make this page pop.

      You can definitely expect a happy ending for Jaden in the future ❀

  3. I love how the red in dialogue bubbles in the fourth panel and the red lighting in the fifth panel show where the characters are in relation to each other. This page looks great, though the content is heartbreaking. πŸ™ I hope Jaden catches a break soon!

    1. Thank you! I’ve loved using the red against the dark teals and blues for dramatic effect.

      Some happiness for Jaden is definitely on the horizon.

  4. OKAY BUT THE EMOTIONAL IMPACT HERE. DID IT HIT ANYONE ELSE OR JUST ME?

    I came from the future. I know Nana has dementia. And yet, I read this page, I am shocked and surprised and like OH NO NANA HAS DEMENTIA HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?!?!?!

    I could not believe it.

    I’m sure a person could just say “hey that’s just you being stupid” but I would say HELLO. I THINK NOT. It’s the story-telling, the set-up, the COLORS in those last two panels and just!! The body language in the final panel, the blue and that radiating red light, the pamphlet. Like this is just so. ART. VERY well done, very incredible and powerful moment that shows you are really flourishing in this medium. Gosh darn that last panel is just Everything. Everything.

    To me this has been the most hard-hitting page of all. And it’s not like it’s something that personally resonates with me at all, I don’t know this particular struggle. But you did such a fantastic job on the artwork that it just hit me so hard

    oh no nana has dementia oh no no no i knew this i knew it would happen but HOW CAN IT HAPPEN NOOOO

    anyway congratulations on the incredible artistic skill. you are truly so skilled at the comic craft. Like wow a person from the future who knew this would happen going “NOOOOO”… you did that!

    1. So glad this hit home! I dedicated a whole page to it hoping for it to hit with a punch

  5. SILLY ARACHNID GUY LMAO

    1. All the kids love Silly Arachnid Guy!
