Honestly- this panel is really scary for me:
Not just because Clutch is a creepy grabby guy or Mimic's the kind of guy where when he's threatened, he'll literally stab you in the back. The fact that Clutch grabs his arm when he's actively frightened and trying to get away. And Clutch is doing it because he knows Mimic is scared and trying to get away. That's scary.
Clutch has a habit of... clutching onto people as a way to build their trust. We see this multiple times. Even strangely with Mimic who actively hates people, let alone them grabbing at him.
And up to this point- Mimic has never seen him mad. Every time he's suggested a threat, this possum's been cool and collected. Almost allowing Mimic- the constantly paranoid backstabber- to lower his guard.
But what we know about Clutch is that you don't want to see him angry. This man will take away the basic care rights of a chao and lock it away with multiple locks in a covered cage. Mimic probably doesn't know that, but chances are that he's been alert this whole time.
And no- I get it. Mimic is no better with chao or wisps than Clutch. We've seen him literally punt one just to make Sonic look bad. Mimic is a bad guy.
Both he and Clutch are manipulative evil men. But like at the same time- this man does not like to get threatened. He goes to extremes to get away from or expose threats. He does not like having an out. And we see how he will react when he's not actively able to find an out.
He panics. He stammers and panics. Which opens up a lot of analysis for his cowardice character and evil motivations, but let's circle back to the point that this man panics under pressure or when threatened.
Clutch is someone who could definitely hurt him if he wanted to. Clutch's hand literally shakes on the gun-cane he's holding. This is the first time Clutch has actively not been calm and collected and Mimic knows its bad news. So he actively tries to leave before he snaps.
But Clutch doesn't snap. He doesn't let him leave. He puts on a fake smile and tries to tell him he's fine- it's not his fault. He can fix this.
I know its two terrible people, capable of defending themselves, probably not that bad. But to be someone that actively does not like being put in danger and having someone you thought you could trust actively becoming dangerous just hold you in place while they continue to rant, telling you "no no- it's okay. Its all just me- not you." And this is seconds before we get Clutch's really creepy angry face (which I forgot to screenshot). He's got a loose grip on Mimic's arm, so it's not as bad, but still... ladies and gentlemen, if someone grabs your arm like this in the middle of them being upset and tries to tell you, "hey it's okay. I'm just upset for personal reasons." That's someone you want to keep your distance from for a while. Clutch knew Mimic was upset and that's why he grabbed his arm. (he did the same to Jewel too btw).

Today one of my guineas, Twixxie, passed away due to old age. I wanted to distract myself and drew something instead. Lord Death is one of my main comfort characters still, so I drew him guiding her to the afterlife, inspired by the “Loving reaper“ comics.
Sorry this looks wonky, I was crying half the time.

Oh great, it's the midnight hour of the "my transition was a mistake and I've ruined my fucking life but also I hated myself before so like what's actually changed besides now I occasionally get laid but what the fuck have I done this was such a terrible idea but it's way too late because my passport with the fancy Sex: F line on it is already on its way WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING but also sometimes I look in the mirror and don't want to stab myself with old spoons so I guess that's nice" vibes.

I suddenly lost 12 pounds since the last appointment and about 21 pounds in the past year. I told them I was struggling to eat at the last appointment and they were like “well, you’re not dangerously thin so idc” but the fact I lost a fairly drastic amount of weight since the last time we met made them go “ohhhh oh yeah, maybe this is a problem or a symptom of a problem”

I am very tempted to beat myself up rn, but there isn’t really time. As of February 4, 2023, I only have a few days to scrape together rent.
Ca$ app $horatiomcclaine
Paypal seems to be down, they won’t even let me long in.
Either way, I need 118 for rent by next week, my job isn’t scheduling me for this month, and it’s just a conga line of screaming.
0/$118

I feel bad. I make a post about it. I look back up from my phone. I'm suddenly crouched in a kitchen cabinet.
