"They can take our lives - but they can never take our raspberries!" 

I'm slightly wary of posting this on Facebook/Twitter. There has been such a lot of weird stuff going on in the comments on the last dormice - from telling me what these actually were (Redwall, beavers, rats, squirrels, chipmunks, Reepicheep), to clamours on EVERY piece to do ALL the counterparts (Wellington, Watson, Hermione, Yennefer, every single doctor), to lectures on all sort of stuff from Napoleon's height to archaeological theft and Inktober/Jake Parker drama (some serious next level mansplaining). 

I feel tired. Can't people just enjoy dressed-up mice like every normal person? 

Enjoy!!! =D

I love this!! And I am so sorry, humans can be so dumb but your art is awesome and should be enjoyed!

This kind of people, always looking for drama, is exhausting... you shouldn't have to deal with them, I'm sorry. Your dormice are so lovely, it's always a pleasure to see them on my feeds <3 If those people can enjoy nice things, that's really too bad, but we can do nothing for them !

Oh, absolutely! This is home turf, so to speak. I think in five years of Patreon, I have received only a tiny handful of comments that went against the grain (and even those were never mean-spirited in any way). I feel very blessed, and spoiled, to have such a fun platform to share my silly little micies!

Well, I think "stop being opinionated" is antonymous to the very idea of Facebook. But right now, it seems all the comments are just fine. Phew. I find it helps to make the caption extra silly; people do seem to think twice before holding forth Important Opinions when the caption contains "RASPBERRIES!"

I've never read Outlander, just watched an episode of the series - but it wasn't my cup of tea. :)

I do really hope you at least keep posting dormice here. I’m thoroughly enjoying them:)

PrincessJoySparkles

Gosh, that's bizarre. Can't people stop being opinionated/entitled long enough to think 'I like or don't like this but I don't have to tell everyone about it and demand they fix it or accommodate me?' O_o I'm sorry you're having to put up with that.

... I meant Jamie from Outlander. 😉

Some people just need to get a life! I've enjoyed all your Cosplaying 'meeces'. At first glance I thought this one was Outlander, but Braveheart it is, of course. xx

Carolyn Edwards

I completely agree with you, Liv. People may be so into all these lovely dormice that they get over-enthusiastic and want to be involved in the process of creating them.

Think of the ones suggesting those related characters as just a kind of (weird and annoying) complements. And for every idiot, som many people just get their day brightened. The internet needs more dressed-up dormice!

Liv Klein

Really hope you’re not, cause if you are then I’m in major trouble for some previous suggestions (including Mousekeeters 😉)

Liv Klein

Beautiful colouring! And what a brave Mouseheart he is!

Marieke J.E.H.T. van Baest

I’m sorry you had to deal with these out of line comments, Jenny. I think Mouseheart looks great. Who would dare to take this Mouse’s raspberries? I hope I’m not out of line to suggest a Mouseketeer. If not please just ignore.

Tanya

Oh dear. Why do internet comment sections just call to the people who need to feel better about themselves by correcting everyone else?
