Bad Sooch

This is random

I'm having major art block so I thought I'd try something different this week and I hope that's okay?? Kinda random but here is Ben and Steph. This isn't canon.

Sales Tax Clarification

Hello! I just wanted to tell you guys how I categorized the tiers for the sales tax. The categorization that we choose impact how much the tiers are taxed, if at all.

Tier 1 - 50% general support, 50% early access to art

Tier 2 - 50% general support, 50% digital downloads

Tier 3 - 50% general support, 50% digital downloads

General support is not taxed so at the most only 50% of your pledges will be taxed.

Unfortunately patreon has not been very clear otherwise a...

Busted!

16.1 - 16.2

Sorry I think I'm actually going to update on Mondays now! Thank you for bearing with me while I figure things out!!

Also just to clarify, this scene takes place right after where we left off in chapter 15, later that night.

Take it off

So I think that I'd actually like to update my comic on Mondays instead of Tuesdays, so if I get my shit together you might see me again tomorrow lol

15.51 - 15.53

3 pages to finish off the chapter!

Like I said I'm going to try Tuesdays for a while, but if I need to pick a different day I'll let you guys know:)

Change in update schedule

Hi friends,

I think I’m going to try updating R.U. screwed on Tuesday from now on, starting this week. I’m trying to organize my week days so that I can focus on comic during the weekend, and focus on studying for the nclex the rest of the week.

(I’m not the kind of person who can focus on 2 different tasks in a day so I always dedicate certain days to certain tasks. Having a deadline for the comic earlier in the week will force me to get it done so I can focus on studying ...

15.49 - 15.50

The next update will be the end of the chapter!

Q&A part 2

I'm sorry this took so long but here is the second part to the Q&A! You guys probably forgot what your questions even were by now lol

I actually managed to answer most of your questions in the Q&A, but if I didn't answer anyone I'm going to go back and respond to your question.

Catch a breath

I don't wanna say that Sooch is a selfish lover... but he's definitely the type to get a little caught up in the excitement occasionally lol

First Time 2

Thanks so much for your patience! You guys are so sweet! To those of you who asked - I'm totally fine! We had work being done at our house this week so there was a lot going on. I had difficulty finding time to draw (I moved home from school and in general there is a lot going on in my house).

15.47 - 15.48

I recommend rereading last week's episode again because I think it will make Sooch's point more clear (also because I tweaked Sooch's dialogue a bit to make the conversation flow a little better, sorry!!)

Patreon Sales Taxes

Hello!

As I'm sure you're all aware by now, patreon will start to charge sales tax next month. I just wanted to reach out to you guys to say please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any problems, questions, or concerns. There are very limited things I can do in this situation but I'll try to be as helpful as I can. Your pledges are marked down as 50% general support so that should help some (general support is not taxed).

I appreciate your support as always<3

...

15.45 - 15.46

Hope you guys have a nice holiday weekend! Stay safe!

Edit: Sorry for being obnoxious but I changed Sooch's dialogue a bit on the second page... I'm having a hard time getting this conversation to flow the way I want it to.

Destress

I moved back home this week and I've fallen behind on my deadlines, so I'm scrambling to get everything completed TTuTT Hope you guys are doing well!

15.43 - 15.44

I swear I forgot how to draw this week it took me forever to get through these pages 

First Time 1

This is going to be a side comic about Howie's first time with a guy. I'm making it available for the $3+ tier because I'm not going to draw anything explicit in here

For those of you who haven't been around while I work on a side comic before, I'll post a page each time a $3+ reward is due until we complete the comic. I don't think this comic will be as long as other side comics I have done. Once I finish it I'll combine all the pages into a single pdf. Please feel free to adjust your ...

15.41 - 15.42

Time for a little chit chat 

Bumping uglies

I literally stared at a blank canvas for 2 days when I started this. This quarantine has not been good for my productivity lol

I do like how this one turned out though.

Q&A part 1

Thank you for the questions! And for your kind words about my graduation :)

I felt like this becoming kind of large so I'm going to divide it into 2 parts. Part 2 will come later on when I finish it. I hope it's not too messy to read!

Q&A

Hey guys! So I've finally graduated... I thought that to celebrate we could do a Q&A? I'm only gonna go it here on patreon, although I'll probably post the answers on other platforms.

I've been avoiding doing Q&As because it seemed like I'm gonna get a lot of questions? And I didn't want to sort through it all... I just didn't have the time. But now that I've graduated I have a small window of time before I start studying for the NCLEX. Plus I feel like if I only do the Q&A ...

15.39 - 15.40

Howie has felt just as insecure about this relationship as many of you guys have 

Sooch's Hobby

15.37 - 15.38

I'm so close to graduating guys.... so close....

I don't know what to title these anymore

This angle was really really weird to work with 

15.35 - 15.36

We'll get back to Josh in a little bit 

Professor/student AU

AU where Howie has a (hyper obvious) crush on his young english professor.

Thanks to those of you who offered suggestions in the suggestion box! They're very helpful to me. Although I wanted to clarify that the suggestion box is for extras, not the comic. It seemed like some of you were offering suggestions for the comic plot, but the comic is already all planned out 👌
