Floaty (Comic)

EDIT: I'm thinking about making this comic public later this week but before that I did some changes. Mainly the composition. I plan to post the original one in some places and I also changed 2 Diana's dialogues that never felt organic to me. Now it feels a bit better. 

Here's a silly oldish comic about the time I discovered that that thing that happens to me from time to time does have a name. "Depersonalization" Idk, at the moment I thought it would be kind of fun for Little to have that too.

This comic basically covers my original reaction. Oh so it does have a name! and Oh damn, It's a disorder! I haven't been officially diagnosed with it because it was never really a problem for me. As a kid it's something that just happened to me from time to time and it never really affected me. On a couple of occasions I tried to describe it to my parents or teachers and they would usually think I was describing a Deja vu. Which wasn't the case because as a kid I used to also have deja vus all the time (Not sure if it is related) so I knew the difference.

So I used to depersonalize all the time as a kid and I had gotten so used to it that it was kind of fun to me when it happened. As I grew up it just started happening less and less often. Over the last year it only happened to me once. It was last week and it made me think about this comic.

The main reason I hadn’t posted this one before is because I kept postponing it. It happens to me a lot. But another reason it’s because, this being about a disorder, I didn't want to run the risk of someone getting offended. But even more because I didn’t want this comic to be taken too seriously. Even while writing this post I had to scrap some of what I wrote because I felt it started to feel a bit like a bummer. Lol So you can also think of this post as a testing of the waters.

On the other hand the background for this piece, simple as it is, is inspired by a small park where I used to go to take naps during highschool.

This is also the third time that I drew Lil with some kind of ghost imagery. Not so literally here but I guess that, as this was before I worked out the concept for the whisperers, I was using Lil to “explore” the supernatural aspect of their world. So I guess I made Lil perceptive to the occult in the same way “the Whisperers” are by accident. Will this be relevant when these two groups finally meet?

I don’t know, maybe, it could be fun. I just thought about that lol.

Once I was thinking for fun, If the band were in a tv show, how would I handle a halloween special? And I decided that it would be funny if once a year they had to deal with actual supernatural stuff, ghosts or zombies, have a really spooky adventure, and then never mention it again during the rest of the year.
