uhh… heya!

my name is fernanda (but i like being called fern) and i was born the 22nd of october in 2002. when i gain some free time… or somehow find the motivation to do so, i make digital illustrations, comics, and write. my hyper-fixations go brr, so you'll usually see me create lots of fanart about my current interest, and then the next morning it'll probably be something else, or sometimes i'll simply disappear from all my social medias for weeks on end, it happens from time to time.

here's my complete portfolio aka where i post the illustrations i deem good enough to save. my side blog is @gayramune in case you want to see my more occasional reblogs of fun stuff i come across. have a common question¿ maybe my faq has the answer you're looking for!

god it’s so sad living in an allocentric world. There are so many relationships that are so complex and nuanced that are all put under the label of ‘romantic’ and immediately all the intrigue is taken from it. Like don’t you realize that these relations are actually ENHANCED by the fact that they are not romantic or sexual?

NOOO DONT PUT THE CHARACTERS IN A ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP YOURE TAKING OFF THE SEASONING!!!!

"I would do anything for you; I would cross worlds for you; I would kill for you; I would die for you" etc in fictional romance= tired and expected

from a boss to their employee= what the fuck is happening there

So, Episode 7

This is my takeaway: Abel was Caine's projection.

Caine used Abel to voice all of his concerns and insecurities. Abel brought up Caine being just as trapped as all the humans. He used Abel to see if anyone would care if he got left behind.

Abel had Jax spend time with Caine and ask him about his hobbies because no human has ever done that for Caine. He was desperate for someone to talk to. He's lonely.

Abel talked about watching the humans from afar, wanting to join them. Caine's been doing that for years.

Everything Abel said was a reflection of how Caine felt and what he wanted. He feels like a prisoner in his own world. He wants to join the humans and be happy with them. He just wants someone to care about him.

Was what Caine did with the Escape the Circus adventure fucked up? Absolutely. But it all came from a lonely AI with a fear of being left behind. Who just wants to belong.

This was made back in 2023 off the heels of a very long graphic novel freelance gig, when I told myself it was time to try my hand at writing my own comic. I always had issues with abandoning projects because I ended up making the scope too big, so I forced myself to do something no dialogue and constrain it to 8 pages. This ended up helping me with figuring out my process, as well as explore some concepts I've been sitting on (I ended up using bits of this comic in Dust n' Dread proper).

This was made before Dust n' Dread even had a name or premise, but this definitely was what got the ball rolling to building enough confidence to start actually sitting down and writing Dust n' Dread into the comic it is now.

If you want to read the comic for real, then you can here!
