Summer Friends

Sometimes you just need someone to listen. And sometimes you need someone to pretend to be listening.

I used the "School Life" tag, but I didn't give it a number because I couldn't fit it into the format that I've been using for those strips. I've done that before.

I spent a bit of time working on some of the other characters, and then realized that they didn't fit in, or weren't needed. So a squeezed a few down for that final panel, because everyone at school has more friends than they realize. The social network between the different groups is growing, at least for the groups that are the same age.

As for Kyung's brother, it's a story that got lost in the shuffle between the pandemic affecting the comic and my home and work life. Maybe I'll write my own fan fiction on Archive Of Our Own at some point. Or maybe someone else will beat me to it.

Like Michele's pregnancy, it's gone on longer than I anticipated. (Okay, I actually liked the idea of the pregnancy lasting for two years because almost no one ages in this strip.)

They'll be more in the days ahead. I hope. Depending upon life.
