Comedians in the '70s and cartoons in the '90s: weird how your kids can watch violence and murder on TV but the FCC wants us dead if we say the word nipple.

Internet users in 2025: you didn't warn me that there would be erotic themes in the game you just mentioned which is fucked up because I thought it was going to be a normal "morally struggle with killing people" game but now it's gone too far :-/

So... Chapter 10 was something.

We're a third of the way through The Painful Process of Healing, and Phen is struggling big time. Now Arven's at her door.

My asks are open for people who want to ask questions about the story, the direction it's going in, or even thoughts about where you think it's going. I understand the heavy topic of self-harm may put people off the rest of the story but this is a story I want to tell.

But also a reminder that you're not alone, it's okay to struggle but you don't have to do it alone.

Chapter 10 of The Painful Process of Healing is out

Phen spends some time in the Academy with Eri and Ortega. Unfortunately a flashback sends her retreating back to her dorm.

Content/Trigger Warning: This chapter contains flashbacks, self-deprecation, vivid descriptions of injuries and self-harm. I can't stress enough to not read this if you're not in a good place.

Growing up is actually all about realizing people don’t inherently dislike you and it’s a bit odd to assume they do

Been doing some editing of chapter 10 on my break and I'm not gonna lie: it's one of the most upsetting things I've written, so I can't stress enough that if you're not in a good place it shouldn't be read.

I think this is the most spoiler-free excerpt I can find that shows the gravity of the chapter.

I love how you draw Joltiks. You are absolutely correct.

Chapter 9 of The Painful Process of Healing is up!

A little timeskip towards the end of February now but, unfortunately, things haven't improved much for Phen. Her friends have been noticing the changes in her.

While there's no content warnings please remember your friends love and care about you and don't be afraid to reach out to them.
