“Put your hand in the box.” “What’s in the box?” “Fromsoft-levels of PAIN!”

I feel like we have heard Hanners use that metaphor before. Am I just nuts?

Do not touch the Hanners!

You're either in the box or off the box.

I FEEL YOU HANNERS

Would this backstory on her mind palace be considered... Hanne-Lore?

I really want them to complete this heart-to-heart and then for Hanners to say, just as she leaves the apartment, "By the way, Iris is in love with you".

I think they complement each other well as friends :D (Woah, the Patreon app is suddenly different)

Y'know, with how well Hanners has been doing lately (ever since her big trip iirc?), sometimes I forget that her character arc involves having struggled with (sometimes debilitating) OCD since childhood. And then we get moments like these that make it clear that while she's grown a lot, and has much better coping skills and a stronger sense of community than when she was first introduced, she still absolutely has OCD and it still absolutely effects her life; it's just a matter of how noticeable that is to an "outsider". Just wanna give props to you Jeph, your depictions of mental health and neurodivergence are one of my favorite things about this comic :D You do a really great job of digging into the heart of things while still being respectful & not turning it into sideshow gawking or "inspiration p-rn". Your characters are unapologetically human (even the AIs, ironically!). Keep at it :)
