#and yea the dream i had was in comic form like something id draw. which i guess is why i felt the need to try doing it LOL

james and p03 comic panels i tried to recreate from a dream i had last night

the entire thing was way longer and involved conversations and shenanigans between them but i can not remember any specific panels besides these 5

the first three were the very final panels, james had a revelation and he and p03 start getting very cuddly together, the other two were just somewhere in the middle.. p03 forcing him to listen to a telephone and james saying That

Are you ever going to redo hot dagn? I really want to read the webcomic, and can you at least give an estimate to when you’ll maybe try updating it? Owowowowowowowo

im glad you care a lot about my doog comic that youd want her back!! but bruh you must know that i stopped trying to force myself to work on it cuz of the pressure of having to make the story, here, ill tell you my dark lore...

*harp noise of a flashback happens* 2018 was big depression slither, it was affecting the way i was writing the story, it was SUCH A HOPELESS FEELING PLOT, and i would choose working on it over hanging out with friends or letting myself work on other things, my friend told me i was like ALL WORK AND NO PLAY MAKES SLITHER A DULL BOY and thats forever ringing in my head (though also depresion me is just isolate-ive in general BUT YEA) a personal project shouldnt be the kind of thing you feel like you Have to make, especially when the reason is for is cuz there was an audience who liked it and expecting you to have planned the whole story. it was motivating at first but then it felt like I Must do this.. something that others and myself would never let me forget

that was my mentality for the longest time... ive let myself Not think about dagn and dont force myself to do anything meant to be made for my own joy, like letting myself wander to whatever it is i felt like creating.. which means NO i havent been trying to update it.. ill be honest we’ll never see hot dagn in its original form again and id rather the old webcomic pages be lost forever

HOWEVER, without the affection of outside forces, i do think about hot dagn sometimes, in the vague abstracted way ive talked about in the tags of the more recent dagn arts.. where everything feels weird but hot is still herself but looks different and the characters are there but different, and it really does feel simple at first but becomes dark and colourful and like a fever dream. ive drawn new art of my ideas few days ago actually and youll see that in maybe a week from now, its more funner for me to draw than how it used to be, ya know thIS BOY LIKES TO DRAW WONKY AS FUNK

YWEAH also the story......is different, i want it to be more hopeful than what i had planned, cuz having a story that puts characters thru pain that has no meaning sucks, during the run of the webcomic we never got to gut punching nonsense that my edgy teen self came up with, i like silly dagn and i love genuine doog, i still like scary stuff happening tho, thats where the weird existential feeling stuff stays. idk if people would like it but man i just want to make things for my own enjoyment      this paragraphs getting big,

SORRY FOR THE BIG DUMP OF TEXT, sometimes thinking about the pressure of webcomics makes me wild, this is a very kind message you sent to me with a good heart and it does mean a lot that you liked my comic, so its just me going off here like a fool!!!!!!
