Vote over at TWC and you can see Aubrey looking pensive about ???

Malaya is caught between individual desires and obligation to the group :P. What can you do? 

I didn't want Mal to spend much time in this story reflecting on what her alternative life could have been if she just grew up normal, mostly because she's not the kind of person to dwell on the what ifs, but also because there's nothing she can do about that. Sometimes, you have to face the life you've been given and make the most of it, and in her case, she's only just started to have the space to dream a little bigger than keeping her head down forever.

May merch drop! New tote bags and hoodies are being added to the Hivemill store! (I may be the webcomic on Hiveworks who utilizes the merchandise the most, from what I've seen...hm.) The hoodies are unisex sizing, but the tshirts run rather fitted, so I recommend sizing up!  (Two of the moons are flipped on the product images, but the files the shirts are printed from are corrected, so you should have moons in the correct order. My bad!)

HTBAW Fandom Wiki is up and running! Thanks to Myk Streja and ShitaraRen for tons of help with moderation efforts and everyone else who's done a ton of work on adding information and filling out the Wiki. Thank you everyone for contributing and it's an amazing and super detailed resource!

Feel free to check out my goofy Amazon store if you're so inclined (this is an ad, as I get a tiny commission if you do buy something), or I have some merch up on Society6 if you're looking for my old store link! Thanks to everyone who's come out to support me through Ko-fi and Patreon!
