#IDC WHAT SORT OF STORIES YOU LIKE THERE IS A WEBCOMIC YOU WILL LOVE

can u pls share ur webcomic Lists

I'm putting together a proper List and it's taking way longer than I thought it would so I'm gonna go ahead and throw out my favorites with links to the About pages if I can manage it:

Midnight Furies: My current favorite comic, has been for a couple years now. Urban fantasy basketball. It’s got a shark lesbian and a Best Girl and a sorta himbo and just some SUPER cool art. Read it

White Noise: At least to me, this one’s got a strong focus on grief and community and relationships. And xenophobia. Lots of fantasy creatures and magic in a modern setting. A good comic if you like world building. It just finished its first story arc and has a big backlog, so this is a very good time to start reading!

Shot & Chaser: Tre and Olly, a matched set, go storm-chasing. I found this one because of a short sort of nsfw sketch comic that made me fall in love with Tre and Olly. I first read it less than a month ago and I’ve reread it in its entirety about four times

Check, Please!: This one’s completed! Eric Bittle (Bitty) is gay and just started playing college hockey, and the comic covers his years on the team! It’s very cute and sweet, and I love the support that Bitty gets from people around him throughout the comic.

O Human Star: This one’s also completed! It’s sci-fi, it's got robots and it discusses gender and queerness and being out and being closeted. The last pages make me cry every single time I read them.

Barbarous: I love love love the art and paneling and colors on this one. Percy is a super smart magic school dropout helping maintain/run an apartment building (I can't remember the job description) along with Leeds, a big monstrous-looking guy with, shall we say, some secrets. It’s got some really cool “who is the monster and who is the man” vibes

I'm trying to focus on non-webtoons here but I can't not recommend Lavender Jack. It's only on Webtoon, as far as I know, but I ADORE it. Think batman-style crime fighter but with Spider-man levels of banter, and also he's a 1910’s gentleman. This one's also completed!

Also, and I cannot stress this enough: if you like a webcomic, go follow the artists/writers on social media. They often share webcomics and creators they like, which leads you to more webcomics to read. I found out about a lot of these from artists I was following.

a few silly things about the new info in chapter 3 of your Hs au!

if I could ask what is Jaidens webcomic about and how did she end up hireing Cellbit to be the writer for it? its such a nice part of their dynamic in this au <3

I internally squealed when the texting part came up between Roier and Jaiden! Roier going “:3” and Jaiden having the nickname “Jai” omgg <3333

is her little nickname only for special people or is it a sort of “idc go for it lol” kinda thing, or somwhere in the middle perhaps?

will how Jaiden and Roier met come up anytime or nah? I was intrigued when you mentioned Jaiden being an old friend of Roier

ok thats it! :D lovee your au!

it is a paychological horror sci-fi story. heavily based off the whole premise of Ordem Paranormal

Jaiden mentioned to Cellbit wanting to make a comic and when he asked why she didn't do it yet, she said it was because she couldn't think of a plot

Cellbit offered to weite everything for her and she could be in charge of illustrating. its how they became so close!

hgjshf im glad you liked that part! anyone can call Jaiden 'Jai' and she wont correct them, but she will only actually answer certain people she trusts and cares for

and yes! it's important to his backstory, shes very crucial to the exploration of his mental health

new murder mystery lesbians (”mml”) ref bc the old one was too sparse for my liking

synopsis & format discussion

three lesbians. they’re cool. they’re gay. they solve crimes. what more can i say?

following the end of the war, lejla gallia finds herself in vienna and out of a job. intent on finally discovering herself (but mostly to avoid thinking about home), she keeps herself busy partying and hanging around her two (much richer) best friends. unfortunately you can’t run from every responsibility forever. especially if your friends are tired of you lazing around doing jack shit

three members of the no-magic division of the austrian army – all having enlisted to escape their family & past in some way – solve mysteries together in the uneasy peace following the end of the austro-prussian war. 

format: this story is a short novella-size prequel (set in the 1870s, 20-30yrs beforehand) to my main fantasy austro-hungarian empire story, fs. both are planned to be webcomic/novel hybrids. at the moment, there’ll only be one story. the main goal is to get me writing and to test how fs would go, so i don’t really want to make a series of it! hopefully will finish the draft next year but it depends on how job searching goes

personal comments: in concept this is very self-indulgent; you’ll have to trust it’s not a wealth fetish story, although there’s an element of having my fancy victorian cake and eating it too. the plot is not directly relevant to, nor a prerequisite for, fs.

main characters

lejla gallia - ready to fucking party, but struggling with being herself & navigating the wide class boundaries her friends put her in, and very down on her own abilities. originally from a poor farming village, she ran away to join the army. currently living off of otto’s generosity

asl: 25-30yo, female, danube-swabian (ethnic german living in hungary) identity & presentation: she generally wears a loose, baggy suit, with a ribbon for a tie (she owns only one - if otto has a whim to take her out somewhere, she buys her new clothes). rather filled out. similar to illona in appearance, but a bit softer in the face. she’s trans miscellanea:

she has self-esteem issues - but beneath it all she's a joviality elemental who doesn't give a shit about what other people think of her for living it up as her best self. (if you insult her: you will be guffawed at)

her dialect is horrid to listen to and barely understandable; her hochdeutsch is decent but she slips out of it fairly frequently

her name is pronounced “lay-la”; i believe the spelling is neither og hungarian nor german but idc

likes: good food & talking to people, her friends, feeling part of a community, not really having to do anything

fave food: bigos, paprika sausage 

otto - “lesbian gaston”. drowning in money & charisma. has networks everywhere. she dreams of entering politics, something only possible due to her immense wealth, but feels somewhat constrained by the rules of the nobility. has a fiancee, while also (apparently unapologetically) being best friends with benefits with lejla (and previously helene...?). it’s awkward. she’s pretty selfish, honestly, but the two still love her.

asl: 25-30yo, female, 100% austrian blue-blood identity & presentation: when dressed of her own volition, she prefers sportswear or a casual suit - anything she can move around in. otherwise she wears men’s formal-wear. usually spotted wearing a newsboy cap miscellanea:

the direct instigator of all this detective business. the strength of the group but like, instead of being able to beat you in an arm wrestling contest (which she could), it’s like, connections and being hot

big on hunting (to the other two’s dismay); often carries a blunderbuss 

her fiancee (female) was a political marriage made at her family’s behest. (to be clear: lejla is otto’s unofficial date / beau, not an uncommon practice among the nobility... just not when you’re due to be married!)

a distant relative of the empress (though not in line to the throne)

likes: hunting, the ladies (;>)), society events / networking, a good challenge, her two best friends

dislikes: “not being in control of my destiny”

helene - the reasonable one (but still down to have some fun). her family ascended to the upper classes quite recently, and she has as much trouble as lejla feeling comfortable there. a talented civil-mechanical engineer. the brains

asl: 25-30yo, female, (ethnicity undecided) identity & presentation: femme-ish. small stature; petite. glasses. hair’s always in an updo. generally wears a dress of some sort miscellanea:

(added later, thanks super-sexy-commando-kyouko for helping me develop her) she’s kind, friendly and charming; a mature woman. good-humored too! she’d do well in society if she didn’t dislike it so much. equally weak to women as the other two though

a little bit on the sarcastic side

can often be found tinkering with something in her study

likes: a good puzzle, quiet but meaningful company, being in the proximity of hot women but she probably wouldn’t admit it

dislikes: insincerity, having to put up a polite front in Society (”it’s stressful”)

#my ocs #i wanted the fs one to be done first but i'm just not in the mood atm #(i wrote this a month ago it's been sitting in my drafts)
