Original Content Valerie the Eldritch Creature Having Self-Doubt by me
Earlier I posted Valerie helping out Cori the half-orc kindergarten teacher. In this comic she's helping out in the school library. The Librarian is named Digit, and she is jumping spider who was accidently turned into a gal by Fae magic.

I've been observing myself doing this in my relationship. with my ex, everything felt like a crisis, and that got reinforced by how quickly conflict arose if I tried to not act like everything was a crisis. now... my anxieties spiral out of control and I work myself up, and he's just. calm and reassuring and he tells me that we're fine and that he just wants me to be comfortable. and it's like going from... being spun around out of control, to being settled in a chair and handed a purring cat. it's so nice to be rewiring this part of my brain.
