ended up moving again. also got really sick during this, lots of almost-fainting and vomiting and muscle spasms. stress kills, folks! but, the page is done now and i'm trying to get back on track with updates. the story is over halfway over at this point and i'd like to finish it.
Poor Sugar. :c Also MAN these guys are nonchalant. On one hand it's almost comforting like 'nothing to be embarrassed/ashamed of, we don't care, let's get it done', but on the other hand not caring about a visual sign of emotional pain... is... :c
GET HER ASS KIM
carmilla being someone who likes to Cause Problems On Purpose for the doctors makes me very >:) because even though i know she probably dislikes this place as much as everybody else here, seeing her co-sign/encourage little acts of resistance
also, glad to see you're doing at least a bit better after everything life's been throwing at you these past couple months!
first time i read this i thought wolf nurse pushed on a part of kims paw that made her claws extend or something (idk how retractable claws work) cuz of the motion lines but this is a 100% more badass way to see it
you're right that the close-up panel where you see kim's claws, it's because the nurse pushed on her hand. when she says yes though, that is kim unsheathing them voluntarily.
claws are actually the fingertips of animals who have retractable ones, so you can push down to make them poke out. it's kind of like flattening a finger by pressing on it. here's a video with a cat paw!

My birthday was yesterday, so seeing the a new update today was a really nice surprise!! I'm glad you're feeling well enough to continue with art, I hope life goes easier on you from here on out!
First off, hope you're feeling better and taking your time with things. Second, my god the staff, they find new ways for getting on my nerves. It's amazing really so keep it up! Also the way they're so casual about the scars/bodily harm, it's not even the 'you're okay, we don't judge, you have not to hide' kind of deal, it's just sorta insensitive. Especially the crossword comment like holy shit.
Also I love Kim's deadpan and sarcastic remarks to the wolf lady, even though it might be used against her as 'aggressive behaviors' or 'threatening a staff member' or whatever. Christ that serval nurse too, like I get it, in a way she's doing her job and they're scenarios of patients trying to lie their way out of certain revealing scenarios.
However, coupled with her only pointing this shit out AFTER Sugar's violation comment makes me think she was banking on her talking back and acting as if Sugar accused her of lying. Fuck off please and thank you.
But in all seriousness, great work, I love the blue and green tones along with Kim's fatigued/frustrated vibe going on in panel 11.
Love the bg in kim rubbin her eyes in panel 11
