And here it is — the extended FAQ with 5 bonus questions, just as promised! :3
I hope the Webtoon format is easy enough to read like this? ToT
This one’s a bit more personal — plus, there’s an AU version of black & blue!
Tomorrow we’ll continue with 6 new pages — finally!
Have fun reading!

Wohooo! Finally, new pages again! Sorry it took a little longer this time 😭 I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately, and that always slows me down. ;_; I ordered some herbal sleep potion and magnesium, hoping it’ll finally help me rest better and longer 😅. Some nights I barely managed 5 hours — my brain was just too ON FIRE!
But enough about ...

2025-10-12 14:46:54 +0000 UTC View PostSoooo, since I’ll still need until tomorrow or the day after to finish THE sketch with Derek and Andy… I thought I’d slip in the poll for next month to keep you entertained in the meantime. :D
I really thought I’d be done by Thursday — meaning today — but honestly, I just wasn’t in the right headspace. Too stressed, too distracted. ...

YAYY! 5 new pages! :D And… if you read very slowly — that’s about one minute of reading time! 🙈
Man, being a comic artist is such a tough job sometimes. An entire week of work for one minute of content! Well… still better than being an animator, right? Lol.
AND hey — over 500 people are reading this! That’s 500 minut...

As I already mentioned in the chat, I’m working on a few illustrations on the side right now. One of them was a gift for Kito, who had to go to the dentist today. TnT As a good girlfriend, I just had to comfort him with something that would make him feel better!
You can find the original illustration in the MAUScloud or on the webcomic ...

Aaaaah, sorry for being a day late again! Q-Q I thought I’d finish the Kinkipedia faster. “It’s just a few chibis,” I told myself… but somehow it took just as long as a regular page (okay, without the rain XDDD so not quite as bad as the rain pages, but still longer than expected!). I really wanted to include the Kinkipedia so that you’d ge...

Hurray! The tentacle illustration is finally finished! XD Sadly, I can only show you a cropped version here again, because I’m not entirely sure how Patreon would react to this theme. 🙈 I mean, to me it’s VERY obvious that both characters are totally into it — but since they’re also tangled up in a plant, it could be… questionable? X,D
So ple...

Woah, a miracle has happened — here is FINALLY, FINALLY a new update. 🙈 I know you always tell me not to apologize, but I still feel bad about my snail pace 🥺 Once Derek and Gogo are FINALLY out of the rain, things will speed up again. First, because all the rain-related work will be gone, and second… because they’ll be wearing less XDDDD But seriou...
2025-09-15 23:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostAnd now, here’s a little in-between fun for you while I finish drawing the comic pages! :3
As I already mentioned in the chat: this week is taking me a bit longer because of the extra illustration, the trip back to Austria, and my mom’s shoulder injury ;_; (I have to help her around the house a bit).
The sketch for August will come right aft...

Sorry it took me so long! I always have to somehow squeeze these kinds of illustrations into my comic schedule 🙈 But now it finally worked out!
It also didn’t turn out nearly as raunchy as originally planned! Wyvrynnn wanted to see how Gogo would react if he came face to face with Derek’...

WOAH, it’s (almost still XDDD) Friday and I actually finished my pages! Hurray! 🤩 At first I thought I’d slip the commission in between, but then I decided: …nah, I want to finish my pages first. That way the batch is done and you all can enjoy them right away VuV The commission won’t be fully uploaded here anyway, since it’ll feature a monster :,)...

Fiiinally a new update! I’m so glad you accepted my Monday apology 🙈 This one really took absurdly long. Miss one weekend and suddenly everything spirals out of order.
This time I won’t write too much about it, because… the pages really speak for themselves. XD And maybe you can even see it: I’m so completely in my element here! Sweet,...

As the title says! XD I HATE it when I can’t manage to post at least once a week.
So… TAKE THIS PICTURE AS MY APOLOGY! I think I’ll need until Wednesday to finish the next comic update. 🙈
But… you’ll forgive me for that… right? 🥹🖤💙

Omg… this update 🥲🥲🥲 I completely miscalculated again how long it would take. These were probably the most time-consuming pages in Volume 7 so far?! Especially the second-to-last one! Yeah, sure, I pull my backgrounds from the “magic box,” but that’s only the base! xD If there’s a lot going on, every single object in the foreground h...

And here comes the August poll! 🥰
The idea came from — who else — Kito! XD And honestly, I was instantly on board. The theme for August will be: ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSE! :D
I’m not 100% sure yet which characters will be featured (you’ll have to let yourself be surprised!), but I’m leaning heavily towards classic Derek and Go...

Here are 4 new pages full of DIALOGUE (I can already hear the Webtoon comments: “FINALLY long updates again!” Even though… they’re always the same length 🙈💦 Only the amount of text varies depending on the scene.)
It might seem odd, but I’ve been looking forward to this conversation for a while now. :3 You k...

It’s officially a running gag at this point, huh? XD I said “this weekend!” And now it’s… Monday. :,) Oh well, that’s fine too, right? :D I hope this sweetens the start of your week a little. :3
This picture was a REAL struggle, I’m telling ya.
I thought it’d be easy, since there are SO MANY ways to frame a pose or idea. B...
Hurray – your one-day-late Maus reporting back in! XD But hey, by now you know me 🙈
The delay this time was honestly just because I’ve been super worried about all the increasing censorship. I kind of ranted about it at length in the chat (when I should have been drawing instead XD), but… thank you for listening! 🥺
Here we go — OF COURSE it’s Friday (and for some of you it’s probably already Saturday XDDD).
I took a bit longer because I went swimming with Kito today, after feeling kinda crappy again (maybe tmi, but I suffer REALLY badly from PMS — it’s honestly close to chronic fatigue syndrome in that last week of the cycle x_x). But it did me good, ...

Sooo, fashionably late but finally here: the new (short but sweet :3) comic update!
Some of you might’ve seen it already on Webtoon or Tapas — I announced a one-week upload hiatus there because I was suddenly just… completely worn out :,) I had to hit the brakes. Aside from black & blue, I’ve got a bunch of other tasks and projec...
2025-07-08 23:45:41 +0000 UTC View PostSince (once again, haha) I needed an extra day to finish the new pages, I thought I’d go ahead and launch this month’s poll today — and the update will follow tomorrow. :3
Basically, I… kind of crashed. 😅 I couldn’t sleep for two nights straight, and then last night my exhausted body finally won — and after that I was ...

Hahaha… good thing I didn’t promise a specific release date XD Guess what: pipe burst in my kitchen. I just had the WEIRDEST situation ever — I’m sitting in my studio, drawing Gogo crawling across the floor in lingerie, while a handyman is literally BREAKING OPEN MY WALL and digging out the pipes. XDDD So yeah, apparently the pipes were installed ...

Uhm, yeah… took me an extra day again. X,D But at least it wasn’t because something bad happened — quite the opposite!

I spent hours on a singl...

Even though I know you all know I can’t split myself into four people. X,D Maybe it’s just one of those creator problems! In a perfect world, I’d be firing off 10 pages a...
