Author’s Note: Trying to be normal. I don’t know how to be normal. I fucking love this character. Originally, he wasn’t going to show up until the very last saga of As Above. But I first developed his character starting in 2015. After nine years, I decided I didn’t want to wait any longer. His concept was one of my favorites and I decided to bring him in as early as possible for the hell of it.
That single decision, much like creating Pan on a whim a few months before starting Unfortunate, radically changed the direction of the entire story. For the better, I think, personally. There were a lot of very convoluted plot points and many plot holes that I was able to simplify and fill with this character. He (as well as the addition of Pan) brought a whole new sense of life to this universe.
I was so excited to draw him in, I actually illustrated this chapter MONTHS before it came out. These chapters with him are the only two that I did that with and it really helped me keep a sense of joy with this project despite how difficult everything was.
