One of the quirks I gave Kitty was that she likes to make really weird plushies. It’s kind of a dumb anime character trait that pops up in manga now and then, but I like it all the same.

Circle Man was a bean bag thing my mom made for me when I was very, very young.

Finn is based on an actual teacher Suichi and I had classes with at SJCC. (Chances are if anyone who’s been near the art program there is reading this they know exactly who I mean.) If he comes off as kind of an over the top Irish stereotype it’s because I stayed pretty true to life. Seriously.

In real life it was with zip discs because it was that long ago, but this exact thing happened for real.

Bonus Stuff

“Neko and Piggy” was a weird little bonus thing I did about the two of us. She used to have an old pickup truck, which had quite a few pig-themed decorations. And then there was an accident. She was unhurt thankfully, but the truck was not in good shape.
