Elias has been interesting to write because all of his issues have kind of bubbled under the surface compared to Mal, whose problems are pretty squarely in the physical and immediate realm. Turning into a werewolf, having your neighbors try to kill you, being worried about eating someone, etc. are all problems you can actually deal with pretty directly compared to emotional and mental problems. I've also had Vincent play therapist to just about everyone for the last few chapters, so I'm trying to keep him away from that path again in this section of the story. The boy needs more depth than "your life sucks but it's understandable that you're upset, and I know you can do it," but I haven't had much time this chapter to give him that (yet) and he wasn't in chapter 11 much. Vinceeent, I'm gonna make you a real boy, I promise! We're going to pack so much characterization into the end of this chapter lol

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!)
