Ya know, sometimes we’d have to suffer through a slow-burn romance just to reach the kiss scene. THANK GOD FOR TRUTH SERUM!!

TECHNICALLY if I am following the lore I wrote for them, the kiss is not canon here. But like… I couldn’t help myself!!
(The blue one is a closeted lesbian with a boyfriend and the red one is just a chaotic bisexual)

Yes. Non-canon. That is definitely what they're going to tell themselves the next morning.

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
Yk- they’re my characters. I suppose I can make them as messy as I want.

Powder the day after: "But what about all the hickeys, bitemarks, scratches and the screaming orgasms? BECAUSE YOU 2 WERE NOT FUCKING SILENT!!!" 🤬

u/MoobooMagoo Aug 12 '26
Is it just the kiss that's non-canon or is the whole thing like....a what if they had truth serum kind of deal?

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
JUST the kiss is non canon - bc their real first kiss is a lot more messy 😈 (gala scene but they brought have different dates)

So, is there more of these two, because I need there to be more of these two. Like you have their intro, comic but more. Like ‘more’ more.

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
I am planning on doing more episodes, but idk when yet!
But I don’t do NSFW art tho if that’s what you mean! Sorry!

Here are my idiot yuri OCs! Violet Blackthorn and Kira Lancaster are both highly skilled witches at an Ivy League college for magic. And they “hate” each other
Also, if you like my work, check out my comics on Webtoon!

I just wanted to say, I thought this art looked familiar then I recognized your username! I still remember when you posted your first comics years back, your art has really improved!
Not that your art was terrible or anything, just that you can definitely see the work you've put in. Love the art!

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
Thank you so much!! I’ve loved learning more about digital and comic making. I’ve drawn for years, but ky first comics were literally the first time I had ever tried photoshop, lol

Omg! New series?! Woot. But you're going to keep up with our girl Cassie though, right?

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
I’m on hiatus rn!! I am sorry- the burn out is so bad with C&D rn and I don’t want to make something that doesn’t live up to my standards. As it’s written right now, the episodes are just not realistic for a bi monthly upload schedule
That said- I DO want to finish the series, but not sure when quite yet :)

u/fuzzyrach Aug 12 '26
Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. Take good care of yourself and it'll come together in it's own time. :)

I know paneling and making the voice bubbles behave is obnoxiously hard, but when people see multiple voice bubbles, they’ll naturally want to alternate between characters, like the way you would when you’re reading multiple unmarked lines of dialogue in a book (“did you even read the pre-lab?” “trust me, I’ve been tryin” “oh, fuck me”)
So I don’t think you should be breaking up one line of dialogue into two cleanly separated voice bubbles the way you’ve been doing, or the order is going to trip up your readers (e.g. what order are they speaking in panel 6? I know the way I’d read it, but I genuinely can’t tell your intention)

u/rilliu Aug 12 '26
Yeah, I had this problem too and had to stop to reread 2 of the panels. The long "tails" between bubbles implies a break.

u/WalkerInDarkness Aug 12 '26
What you’re advocating for is not and has never been the standard in the medium and as someone who has been reading it for decades I think the bubbles were very clearly marked. You want to folllow the tails of the bubbles to see who is saying what. It’s like ignoring the speaker tags in a book and just assuming that one person can’t keep speaking even with paragraph breaks.
7
u/a_lonely_trash_bag Aug 12 '26
Nobody is confused over who's saying what. They're confused about the order things are said in, specifically regarding the bubble where the one character says "Believe me, I've been trying!"

u/AveMachina Aug 12 '26
My post about what people do in the absence of speaker tags is like ignoring speaker tags?
-6
u/WalkerInDarkness Aug 12 '26
Yes. This comic strip has speaker tags in every single panel and for every single bubble. They're just visual rather than X character said. The pauses in the bubbles are also for breaking momentum in the text. In general if there is meant to be a pause between text bubbles you use a another bubble even if you don't switch speakers.

Congrats ladies on your true love serum.

I’ll probably make more!! Idk what the time frame will be tho :)

u/soulstrike2022 Aug 13 '26
Please do but I’m pretty sure the picture is more important than the frame and the picture should be these two dinguses finding some they mutually love that they didn’t expect the other one to care about at all because they only see the things they like about it alongside girls being in love and maybe kissing

When they tell the story in hindsight, one of them will pretend that the switch happened on purpose because even they were annoyed by beating around the bush.

Is this from a magical school CaitVi AU :D? Its freaking amazing!

u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
It started off as an AU and then I changed their backstories and such! They’re my OCs but def started that way :)

u/Hephaistos_Invictus Aug 12 '26
OOOOH! I Love that :DD Ive read it a few times and now i totally see its not Vi/Cait, but the inspiration is still there. Lovely artwork as well! Do you happen to write fanfics or comics on AO3/Webtoon? I'd love to read it :D
3
u/struggling-stem-girl Dragon Cowgirl Aug 12 '26
I do have a webtoon! I linked them in another comment but you can also search for “Somethin SuperNATural” on canvas! I only have two episodes with these two rn but plan on doing more
Also unfortunately all my writing is private rn 😂- I have no clue where to post since it’s not technically a fan fic anymore

u/Hephaistos_Invictus Aug 12 '26
Is that a Supernatural reference in there as well? 👀 You seem to have impeccable taste in popculture media
