[yellow, a finger up, looking smug]
The answer to oppression is NEVER violence
Turn the other cheek
Pacifism always wins
You could earn rights by asking nicely instead

[yellow, proudly showing us a huge book]
Don’t believe me?
Open a history book!

[yellow, looking frustrated as they are shuffling through the book’s pages]
Ok so…
Uhm…
Not this page…
Wait…
The next one…
Awkward…
Another…
Yeah but…
For sure this time…

[yellow, sweating, protecting their book, a hand raised towards us]
Can you stop looking?
You’re being rude
That’s my book

    I think you’re right, much better that way.

    Thanks, useful advice on writing/pacing is rare.

      It definitely feels risky giving unsolicited feedback, because maybe it’s not wanted.

      I also wonder how much of my fear was shaped by r/comics somewhat brutal and arbitrary moderation. I think there was an explicit rule about not saying anything negative, as if the sub were a site to encourage women to take photos of themselves.

        There’s good and bad ways of giving feedback.

        Yours is very good.

        Other people’s, often not so much.
