Inktober 2025 13 "Drink"
Despite apperances, Nurse Shai and Nurse Mackie have great synergy. So much so that all of their shifts have been synced up to make sure that one never works without the other. Eliza doesn't seem to mind Shai's enthusiast too much, though. >w>
Inktober 2025 12 "Shredded"
"C-can we swap roles?" "No." Mouse nurse needs a name! Hornet inmate too, actually. If you have some, share your suggestions in the comment if you have some! Big Lion boi's name is Carlos Belfang.
Inktober 2025 11 "Sting"
The Azure Glen Asylum also houses some extremely dangerous inmates. Those rarely get to leave their cells and are kept in the maximum amount of carceral-grade restraints. One of those inmates is especially scary and nobody wants to deal with her except one allegedly equally scary nurse.
Inktober 2025 10 "Sweep"
You gotta be snarky with the doctors when you're an asylum janitor, doubly so when you used to be one of their patients.
Pooped
Got a lot to do in the next few days so I'm putting the inktober series on a small hiatus (for three or four days tops.) while I focus on getting page (and other things) done.
Inktober 2025 09 "Heavy"
Wet diapers swell up. Big wet diapers swell up a lot. Esme's calculations might have been slightly off.
Inktober 2025 08 "Reckless"
Sometimes the temptation to do something really stupid is mighty strong.

The Azure Glen Asylum is a secure facility and that means it's not just doctors and nursing staff watching over the patients. Security guard Cavalier is the resident crackshot. It doesn't matter how much distance you think you've put between him and you as you attempt to escape, your padded butt will get sedated before you even catch a glimpse of the asylum gates. As for Miss Donalissa, well, she needed the nap anyway.

When you're an (allegedly) Big Bad Wolf and there's a cute intern, fresh out of med school with zero real life experience of real high security asylums, you can't NOT mess with her. That's, like, the rule. Name suggestions for these two are welcome!
Inktober 2025 04 "Murky"
"Look! Look! I drew Murky! He wears diapers too!" Some patients are more low-maintenance than others. On good days, all you need to keep Ahhai happy and busy is a few sheets of paper and a crayon or two.

One would think that learning courtly etiquette isn't part of the Azure Glen Asylum nurse cursus. One would be wrong. Anyone want to suggest names for these two and/or spider head nurse? Feel free to do so in the comments!

The Head Nurse of Azure Glen Asylum's closed ward has her own way of performing emergency takedowns. Oddly enough, some patients act up only when she specifically is on guard duty.
Inktober 2025 01 "Mustache"
It's October again and you know what that means (maybe)! It's Inktober time! Obviously this year I won't have time to do super involved pictures everyday (The comic's regular schedule remains top 1 priority) but I'll still try to get a daily lineart done, I hope you'll enjoy them! \o/
Ask Ted and Esme 10
I'm finally caught up on chapter 3's storyboard and I have time to do the Q&A again, woo! \o/
Stripes and Straps Chapter 3 (+ Discord Link in description)
All the pages so far of the third chapter of Stripes and Straps.
Chapter 2 Storyboard
Page 42 will be a teeny tiny bit late, I need a bit more time to finish the backgrounds. It'll be here tomorrow! In the meantime, here's the full storyboard for Chapter 2 as well as the initial plot planning for those of you who like to check that stuff out. Fun fact, the part at the Asylum was initially meant to be an ellipsis as I wanted chapter 2 to focus entirely on Esme and Ted's relationship. However after chapter 1 already skipping over Ted's six months stay it felt like another asylum ellipsis would feel bad (Also Padd...
Ask Ted and Esme 09
That one took a bit longer to make but I'm sure you'll agree that such crucial matter needed careful consideration. *Nods solemnly.*
Ask Ted and Esme 08
Another answer, another serving of "thick" lore.
