The two men like to arrive in this manner, with a more or less friendly greeting, and this might remind us of the fact that all humans, no matter what they do, like very much to be liked, even if it is for only an hour or so before they are feared or hated — or maybe it would be better to say that they like the fear they inspire to be leavened with other things, such as desire or curiosity, even if, in the final analysis, fear is always the greater part of what they want.

Hi Jo! Happy 2024! ✨ If your characters were to make New Year's resolutions, what would they be?

Hey there! This is such a fun question. Sorry it took me until now to answer it!

I only have a few characters I'm working with right now but:

BIRDIE, a bisexual cis woman living in 1992 NYC: draw more, cook at home more often (especially recipes her ma made when she was a kid), volunteer at The Center, and visit her family

VIOLET, an absolute menace no matter what verse she's in: make her first million, survive her first scandal, and learn how to turn all men into swine.

EDDIE, a transman attending CCS in Detroit in time period tbd: do something illegal without feeling guilty about it, go to a rave, and maybe move out on his own?

JUDY, a transwoman and Ed's childhood bestie: stop dating assholes, maybe go to community college, and DJ her first radio show
