Cinnamon Sugar Pancakes
Added 2023-09-24 23:03:06 +0000 UTCI really don’t have enough drawings of honey being a big stupid lesbian
Sorry about the art slowdown this month, folks. Work has been a real drain. Fortunately I’ve got some art comin’ at you over the next few days. ;3 As always, thank you for your patience and support!
Honey meets Topher’s roommate/bang buddy, Mal. Mal is very warm and personable and has a habit of calling everyone ”baby”, which of course induces an immediate explosive crush in Honey’s dumb love-starved ass
edit: added the pancakes! Mal is a stellar cook and often volunteers to make free meals at Toffee’s church, where she’s a member (it’s also where she and Topher met). Those are cinnamon sugar swirl pancakes with vanilla bean icing. Do u see now why Honey’s pissed she lost Mal to fucking Topher, of all people

Oh hey, I literally just got done answering a similar question on the Couch Cuddles post. I recommend checking it out! :3 You're correct in that Topher feels it's not his responsibility to teach Honey how to be an actually decent person. It's why, beyond simply antagonizing her, he has yet to have a deeper conversation with her about their shared background, their dad, and the belief system that was taught to both of them growing up. He doesn't want to tell her he's trans and then have to field a billion ignorant, insensitive questions and assumptions from her. But....yeah, if he and Honey were to actually have a deeper conversation, (provided Topher is in a good mood and feeling patient enough to explain gender/identity concepts to his verrrry uninformed little sister), he might juuust be a little affected at the fact that Honey's ignorance is not willful, she does genuinely want to learn and IS actually capable of extending empathy to people besides herself. Eg. Honey comes to accept Topher being trans quite quickly, because 1.) she comes to understand that while she and he are different, at their core they are painfully alike, and 2.) This is all being transgender is?? Someone just adopts a new set of pronouns and begins presenting themselves the way they wish? Why did her community say this was evil? Who does this hurt? Isn't freedom of self-expression a basic right?? Honey gets outright angry on Topher's behalf, and Toph is pleasantly surpised by it.

2023-09-26 00:51:19 +0000 UTCThose pancakes look heavenly, goodness me- I'm having fervent mental images of Honey trying to talk to Mal about her own baking/try to impress her with lemon bars or something. kghfdgj I'm looking through some more of the comments in here and wondering. You mentioned some stuff about how realizing that people like Summer/Topher/Mal are happy and well-adjusted with their identities would force Honey to potentially start reevaluating some of the things she had just taken to be right/potentially asking Topher about it- would that in turn be kind of. a start to Topher warming up to his sister? I imagine his bitterness toward her and everything she stands for of course wouldn't disappear quickly, but- would seeing that she is confused and wanting to understand/starting to question what she's been taught get him to start coming around a bit, too? Or would he be more. annoyed because it's not His job to hold her hand and walk her through unlearning all the problematic stuff that she grew up embroiled in?
