The cube means order, so when you draw it, things are no longer not ordered. And the spiral means renewal, so when you draw it, it makes things renewed. MAGIC And then you draw two more pictures of the cube and one more of the spiral so things will be EXTRA ordered and renewed, and then you draw a picture of challenges, because uh Rotten Red Rod fucked around with this message at 21:12 on Jun 27, 2022 |

Because Mookie embarrassed himself trying to talk to a deaf person once in Highschool and thinks it would be "nice" if the disabled were to publicly display their disability so "normal people" can I don't know if this is the actual reason, but it feels like it is.

It's so much worse than wearing it in Arudak's house, though. The very first thing we see Snout do in the comic is create the deaf patch for himself, and then during the course of that chapter we learn that he's a hermit who interacts with a total of one person daily (who already knows he's deaf). And he doesn't know the mongrel city within walking distance even exists. It's 100% just to establish Snout is deaf to the reader in a really clumsy way.

What I’m saying is for all the comic started bad and clumsy, it’s only managed to get exponentially worse.

The weirdest and most insulting thing about it to me is that when he first got to Arudak's tower Snout got a fancy outfit, presumably borrowed from either a guest/communal wardrobe or Arudak's own closet... and the very next page the Ink Witch has inexplicably stitched a DEAF tag onto it. And then she gives Snout that sickenly tender look that feels especially condescending in this context. It didn't even have any sort of story relevance despite the lingering close-up of it! No one else got a chance to read it (except maybe Bee, but Snout being deaf was not part of that conflict at all) and as soon as dinner was done Snout took off those clothes and never wore them again. Snout and Ink Witch altered some borrowed clothes because ?????? Also I forgot this brief outfit change was also accompanied by Snout teaching the black-coded woman how to do her hair, and by it taking less than 24 hours in-universe for her to strip her clothing off during another fugue state while Arudak and Inky treat her like a baby who kept them up all night with her screaming. loving hell Mookie.

It's been said before, but it's worth saying again-- this comic just gets more horrible the more you think about it. Like a fractal of terribleness.

Imagine living on a world where poo poo like that is so simplistic and poorly defined that idly scribbling in your notebook or striking through a word has a nonzero chance of accidentally activating a sigil that boots you into the shadow realm.

Four vertical bars are definitely a symbol connected with freedom. Just, like, you know, inversely.

The freedom symbol is a set of prison bars viewed from the outside, maaan. I swear, at this rate none of you are going to reach the fifth gate of the triple-self mind palace or whatever.

Oh sure, a vacation will get you halfway to enlightenment, but have you ever stripped naked? Or fallen asleep? Of course not, it would take you years to reach that level.

The bars are kind of uneven so maybe it's supposed to be broken bars? But all the symbols are kind of messy whenever we see them. Also note how the Renewal symbol has changed direction and shape.

They have to do a ceremony and the head painting thing now despite dream magic never involving any of that previously so that it's absolutely clear that Snout isn't the one doing anything.

Yeah, the incessant nudity is a little weird given the general tone of the comic but whatever, it's the weird precision of every minge being groomed in exactly the same odd and very specific way that really makes it stand out. So to speak. And I have no idea why Mookie thinks boobs have an inseam. Best I can figure it's supposed to be some sort of shadow or something, making it the overlapping sliver in the Venn diagram of Mookie understanding nothing about anatomy and Mookie understanding nothing about shadows.

I think Mookie is trying to show us that he's like, totally a mature dude who's not afraid to draw pussy, but also that he's a progressive feminist who draws women with body hair. That or Ink Witch and Corpsemom go to the same waxing place and they don't know what the gently caress they're doing.
