[ID: A digital drawing of four personifications of different U.S. cities, carrying trains from their respective metro systems like pets. They are all feminine-presenting and drawn against a textured gray background. NYC is a person with light brown skin, dark brown hair with pink streaks in two low ponytails, and pink eyes, wearing a red jacket with pink sleeves over a shirt, pants, and shoes. Philly is a person with dark brown skin, a loose orange afro, and orange eyes, wearing a dark green jacket over a bright blue shirt, dark blue pants, and boots. Boston is a person with light skin, short straight reddish-brown hair, and dark blue eyes, wearing a gray hoodie, blue faded jeans, shoes, and a green beanie. They have a knee brace on one leg. Chicago is a person with dark brown skin and long, straight, dark red hair that fades into gray and seems to dissolve into smoke at the ends, wearing a black shirt.
NYC stands calmly holding their phone with a NY subway train next to their feet. The train is drawn like a creature, with its front windows squinted like angry eyes and an open mouth, displaying pointy teeth. It appears to be growling angrily. Philly is flinching away, holding a frightened looking SEPTA train protectively. Philly, alarmed and angry, yells "Get your dog, bitch!" NYC, looking bored, replies "It don't bite." Philly, speech bubble spiky with outrage, yells "Yes it do!!"
Boston stands holding a Dunkin' cup with one hand and pointing at an MBTA train (Green Line) with the other, glaring at it and saying "Bad transit system." The train hisses, unrepentant. 
Chicago is happily scratching an L (elevated) train under the chin, saying "Good transit system!" Good is underlined for emphasis. End ID.]
got the idea to draw this while on the SEPTA train back from winter break, finally finished it today. was wobbling on posting it, but then amtrak started posting about city shipping and i figured it was a Sign, so
anyway. if cities were girls transit systems would be their little pet bastard creatures. you agree. reblog
