OOPs #363
Jul28
Such a good mommy
Hi-res and textless version available for free on my Patreon!
All right, looks like everything’s up and working! I’ve been sitting on this site redesign too long, and just needed a couple days to get everything remade. And in a strange bit of good (?) timing, my Wacom tablet died a few days ago, which I assumed was the universe’s way of telling me to get off my ass and update the site already. Thankfully Wacom made a speedy repair and delivery back, so I’ve already sketched up the first few panels of the next OOPs page.
And a special shoutout to Xandispin, who first suggested a site update several months ago, then set up this snazzy new WordPress layout for me to customize (which I then sat on until this past week). Thanks man; it took me long enough to get around to it, but without you the site would still be looking like something from the early 2000’s!
Seriously, I was manually creating pages and re-entering every altered link when there was a new page, using a long-defunct version of Dreamweaver 2001. That gets tiring real quick.
Anyway! There’s some new stuff in the Art & Extras section now as well, which you might not have seen if you don’t frequent Deviantart and such.
Aaaa Pekkit the happy book girl! She’s so excited and cute and BLUE on the inside!
The dictionary IS an interesting read, sometimes! Not a story book, but a learn-y book!
Oh, Figgins. I know you meant well, and Kass probably does too, but… dang it. And Kass just has to kinda, grin and bear it for the sake of not exposing himself, particularly to Narklet, _who is still a problem in the background imminently coming in!_
So wait, does Pekkit just have blue blood?
Most likely, her blood is normal, but her tongue and mouth and such have a lot of black pigment in them. You can see this IRL in some dog breeds like the chow-chow. :3
Huh, neat.
Cool thought- quite likely, yeah.
Yinglet mutations being freaky as usual
A handful of the Enclave yings have blue flesh, notably Beizel. I wouldn’t be surprised if Pekkit is one of his kiddos.
See, Kass, not acting girly won’t save you xD
…yeah….
*Kass helps out and encourages a kid like a normal person*
Yinglets: So Motherly!
Kass: MOTHERFU-
XD
Well remember that’s not something a male yinglet would do, unless it was one of those yinglets that looked a lot like you. (probably from a limited mating or someone shooting blanks that round…) and that’s heavily discouraged.
So, would it be better for Kass to continue hoping that there will be a way to reverse the changes made to him, or should she just embrace her new status and live the life she now has. What would happen if Kass never accepts the change but never changes back?
Personally, I get it. I’ve been a male all my life and, barring some catastrophic change, that’s what I will always be. I can’t imagine what I would do if something like this ever happened to me, but then it’s not likely this can or ever will happen.
Changing was such a rare even no one had even heard of it. Even IF something else like that exists its unlikely to be go back to generic male human
Moreover, a human varient of the item would just kill him, given what was found in the hole, he’d need enough body mass to change back…
Conservation of energy is a harsh mistress…
In Kass’ mind, (sarcasm) “Thanks for reminding me, I needed that.”
Every time someone makes these female related comments pushes Kass toward accepting what she now is (however slowly that might be).
Hey so thats not how gender dysphoria works actually!
And Kass’ sudden change isn’t a real world occurrence. When she overheard Lopin and Isher talking, she made a decision to start accepting (at least portions of) femaleness… or lack of maleness.
The gender issue is greatly complicated by the fact that Kass also turned into a 3-foot rat on stilts and the species dysphoria, in the context of this fictional story, is an even bigger issue he is trying to come to terms with (and is heavily involved in the Isher and Lopin conversation).
and that along with the yingbrains they definitely have a case of the girlbrains.
Yeah but misgendering characters for no reason says alot about how you behave in the real world
I REALLY hope by the end they find a way to change him back.
Same, dude. He’s clearly not comfortable as a yinglet or a female, if he just “accepts” it that’s kind of a miserable, depressing ending to the story.
Kass can hold out hope on a back burner in mind, maybe the chance at a reversal will be discovered. But absolute denial in the face of long term improbability of the reversal would be far more painful a crusade against her reality.
Pekkit is the sweetest little thing ;_;
Mother Kass
Mama Kass sounds catchy…
You know the old joke about the dictionary, right? Not much of a story, but at least the author explains it all as it goes along.
“First time I ever read the dictionary I thought it was a poem about everything.” – Steven Wright
There’s barely anything funnier in this comic than Kass having to come to terms with womanhood XD
She’s experiencing comphet for the first time! How cute!
It’s interesting how the supposesly “matriarchal” yinglet society has the men with a monopoly on force (every yinglet with a weapon we’ve seen has been at the very least AMAB) and the women’s political power based entirely on their sexual and reproductive availability to the patriarchs. The boys get to do all sorts of gay shit but the women are just expected to be matriarchs. Obviously, given how yinglet reproduction works, the situation isn’t 1:1 with human societies, but all in all it’s a pretty good demonstration of how even matriarchal societies limit women to the role of reproductive labor (even if in this case reproductive labor includes like, foreign diplomacy)
Hopefully Kass can help keep this from becoming as dystopian as it could be!
It also probably sucks pretty big shit to be a trans yinglet in either direction, but that’s just par for the course with gendered class societies
He’s not acting any different than when he was a human male, but obviously no other Patriarch understands his situation, and revealing it would be troublesome, so they go with what they got, even if it is erroneous, and highly personally uncomfortable with him.
He is a female Yinglet, and being very caring and supportive, like a parent would, which would make him an ideal Matriarch.
There is one patriarch that knows the situation, he just plays it as if he doesn’t, even overplays it a bit with Kass. 😉
Man, Beizel doing that despite knowing the situation really grossed me out
She’d been a mommy since she opened the one yinglet egg, and now she’s one in status!
And it was all going so well, too…
