Hehe I'm glad you enjoyed my silly stupid game so much. Honestly I would love an ending to PFM similar to what you described. At the same time, it wouldn't be the right ending either. It's just impossible. The old Pasq simply doesn't exist anymore. Well, he does to me in a sense. The way I sorta coped with the end of IH and Old Pasq going away, as overdramatic as this sounds, is that I realized that Old Pasqualo came back to me and now lives inside my head again. He uses my eyes to watch the glimpses of Pasqualo's life that we get to see.

Though I'm not so sure that's true anymore. These days I don't think of him much. Just the current Pasq. Welp he's gone for real now, I guess! Haha...

The different universes interacting with each other is something I wanted to do since we started PFM. But again, it just wouldn't make sense. That's why I created the nonsensical, non-canon Titty Game universe, so I could play around with that idea and get it out of my system. I consider the game universe to be a similar universe as those holiday specials where the characters talk to us.

I probably won't play around with the idea much anymore, just because I don't wanna overdo it. Plus if I do it much more than I have, I feel like it'd be a disservice to IH's ending. Plus I'm content with PLEASE FORGIVE ME. I love it more than IH these days. poo poo, I actually love Pasqualo this time around, which is new for me, haha.

You say this but there was still the dude coming out of the concrete tree so just admit you're going for the 100% metafictive ending

Your fanfiction is good, but it'd be great if you'd stop injecting your fart fetish into every story.

please ignore this terrible opinion haver, you should dramatically increase the fart/non-fart ratio of your story so that every other word involves some form of flatulence or description there-of.

well, on the one hand, I guess that explains the concrete tree.

So is the big yellow guy parodying something, or is it Pasqualo?

So is Larry the murderer's punishment to be reincarnated into every person he killed? When the big man touched him he got the same pattern that special agent gross got from being pincushioned.

Oh it's you! I know you! And I like you too! Thank you for all the kind words.

You don't have to feel like a moron. Both anime parodies I attempted, I quickly let fall apart in favor of something weirder. As for the end of Poopy Doopy (haha), I just went wild with the weirdness.

I'm happy to say, though, that it wasn't just weird for weirdness' sake. It makes sense if you're me and you know what it all means. I'd rather not explain too much right now so you guys can have fun (or just get really angry) trying to make sense of it.

I really got into Twin Peaks and David Lynch's work near the end of IT HURTS, and that inspired me to try my hand at super surreal poo poo. It's so much dang fun making odd looking imagery. And I think weird and funny go hand in hand.

but does poopy doopy fit into the PFM universe? Was it actually Larry that freaked out the girls with the concrete tree?

Yeah I binged that one in an afternoon for the sake of catharsis during a bad depressive episode and I sent it to my brother saying "yo this pretty much encapsulates the poo poo I've gone through" because I just wanted someone close to me to know who wouldn't institutionalize me. He responded a few days later, I can pretty much describe his reaction as :stare:
Most :sadfan: comics tend to be overwrought and melodramatic but you can tell this one comes from a place of, I don't know, survived pain? Like the wound is healed and it's meditating on the scar and not shying away from both the meltdowns and the quiet moments of pain, while most others tend to focus on one or the other. It also doesn't shy away from real life snapping into focus (like when they took the wrong highway) or the little moments of alleviation and fun that can break depression for a small while (like breaking into the house).

In conclusion it's a hard read but a good one, and I've always liked hard reads now and again.

when her parents called was the biggest gut punch I have ever felt via fiction.

Once I figure out what the hell I'm doing with the Jen story, it'll definitely be a !! expanded universe. While I'm doing my best to keep the past in the past when it comes to IT HURTS, more Jen is something I always wanted to make.

With PFM I've got a fantastic worldbuilder working with me, main-developing and main-writing the series and we plan on showcasing some neat stuff in the comic. We'll probably see and know more of the PFM world than we did of IH's in IH. Whether we'll add to PFM after it's done, who knows? Well, both of us say "no" to that right now, but who knows. I doubt either of us would turn down the thought of a Patience side comic.

yeah but you already started the !!! expanded universe with larry the murderer

Thanks a lot, guys! I've been doing pretty well mental health-wise lately. But yeah, I've been purposely not spending every moment of my free time drawing comics, which is another reason this is taking some time. When I was drawing IT HURTS, it was almost the only fun hobby I had. These days I do more internet browsing and FFXIV. Those memes and those Moogles. Lemme tell ya...

As for busting my buns to maintain an update schedule, yeah I did that for a while and I found that I was starting to cut corners just to get comics done, rather than actually having fun making silly art. My current arrangement let's me chill out and take my time.
