21 (cw: mentions of suicide)
typically, i don’t plan birthday comics. they’re just another day to me - however, 21 is a milestone, or so they say. and i’ve got a great birthday week planned ahead - drinks with family and seeing ghost live in concert are only the taste of it!
mentally, i was at a dark place in 2021. i was in my final year of school, and it was hell there, and i didn’t know if i would see the light at the end of the tunnel… all the while hiding my feminine side from everyone, even those i trusted. but i got out of there, and it was elating. and i found multiple supportive environments in regards to me being trans, both on and offline!
to those that still know and love me irl: im grateful for all of you. i know it seems like 21 didn’t take long - hell, i’ve noticed life went by quick - but you’ve seen me progress into the strong, resilient, more confident person i am now. there’s still room for growth, don’t get me wrong, but i’m a much better person now than i was at 17.
to those that know and love me online: im grateful for all of you too. being trans led me to a community where people who like to draw share their experiences, and although they’re individual to another, they’re still relatable. and they’re all so accepting!! just… don’t really expect a chaotic meetup, because despite being a gremlin online, i’m wayyy more introverted irl 😅
my birthday wish, you may ask? more positivity like this for 21 more years at least. <3
that being said! i’m not gonna leave this comic without a surprise bonus panel! 👀
bumpin that 💚
Happy birthday Olivia~ this comic was really sweet and I'm so glad you've found some comfort in this world in this little community n.n
