is one of the most thoughtful comments I've ever received, thank you so so SO much!💜
I wanted to show a whole smorgasbord of dysfunctional masculinities, and I'm really proud especially of some of the subtler ways that the characters suck, like the Wagie clearly looking to the Gambler for approval constantly because he's the most Big Boy Alpha in the room.
I really love hearing about people's favourite character! Somehow they're all good. Will I ever pull that off again??? Hopefully! The stranger is such a like, if you're the right kind of person it's going to shoot straight into your soul, which makes sense, coz they're comprised at least partly of mine (although not quite autobiographical as some folks have assumed lmao). Personally, I just can't get over my beloved cowboy as like basically a flawless beautiful kind humble fellow who is also maybe the biggest freak of them all, but in a way that's so ridiculous it's hard to take seriously.
Thank you again so much for playing and sharing such beautiful thoughts :) i'm gonna keep telling weird stories about weird people and I hope you enjoy them! (Perhaps chuck me a follow? :3) I think you might like City of Piss a lot too, by the by!
