This was a page I've been looking forward to doing for a long time, and that last panel in particular, ever since I originally did the script back in early 2019. The way Nes's anxiety and internal self-contempt builds over the course of the previous pages, all leading up into the frame where Nes just throws himself at his Dad for comfort and reassurance, reminiscent of how he hugged his Dad back in the locker room scene with his head pushed against his chest (yes, that was planned!). Nes is afraid to look weak in front of his Dad, hence why he hides his face.
Another part of this page that was foreshadowed is Nes's dialogue, originally shown back on page 20 after he gets knocked out: https://www.deviantart.com/temiree/art/Little-Runt-Page-20-817186482
I love how this page turned out. I'm sorry it took so long! I was afraid to screw it up, so I procrastinated for a while, haha.
Anyhow, enjoy. Although this is my personal favourite part of the story, there's still plenty more to come. :3
