Gender (and plurality) [1/2/25] by Miph & Roy, Summer, Goldie, Forest Panel 1: There are a bunch of different folks in our system who have a lot of different gender feelings and presentations – some of us wanted to share ours with you! [The entire panel is a text box/square speech bubble coming from Miph, who is above it and to the top left.] Panel 2: Roy is a demiguy, or proxvir. Usually he feels like a guy. Sometimes they feel more like a concept, or a non-gendered thing (or rarely, feminine)! [Roy is pictured in the middle of the text, looking neutral.] Panel 3: Goldie is bigender, but usually presents like this [an arrow leading from “like this” to Goldie's usual appearance, her golden hair cut in a bob with bangs, and a striped tank top] not like this [an arrow leading from “not like this” to a drawing of Goldie with shorter hair, wearing a vest over his tank top, and looking awkward] though he can! (she or he pronouns ok!) [There is a yellow lightning bolt symbol as a dividing line between the two drawings of Goldie, representing both the duality and unity of her gender.] Panel 4: [This panel is longer than the others, taking up twice as much space on the right side.] Summer is genderqueer/genderfluid! They use any pronouns and love cute little outfits! (but always have a flower on them somewhere) [The text is scattered throughout the panel, along with three sketches of Summer with different leafy-green hairstyles and clothing. The first drawing is Summer in their usual outfit, a sleeveless dress over a long-sleeved shirt with purple flowers on it, and mary janes, with pink shading and pink hearts around the sketch. The second drawing is of them with a spiky ponytail, sticking their tongue out, wearing a t-shirt with a purple flower on it, with orange shading and stars around the sketch. The third drawing is them with shorter hair in a suit jacket and button-down shirt, a flower in the suit pocket, with yellow shading and sparkles around the sketch.]

Gender and Plurality 🌈
#crayonboxcomics #miaplacidusart #pluralsky

Alone Together, by Miph and Anon 1/1/25 Panel 1: Often, it feels like we're alone. [Miph is alone in an empty panel with her eyes closed.] Panel 2: Sometimes, we can hear each other through music... [Anon is listening to music with their eyes closed and imagining Mav (blue) talking to them, upset about something.] Panel 3: ...Sometimes, we just kinda sense their presence. [Summer (green) leans into Miph excitedly, with a hand on Miph's shoulder and the other arm raised, taking up most of the space in the panel. Miph looks annoyed.] Panel 4: For a lot of us, we feel like we came from an entirely different world. Our body feels and looks unfamiliar. [Miph recalls doing scientist stuff with Anon, while looking into the bathroom mirror, seeing a face that is not her own.] Panel 5: We don't always get along, sometimes we can even hurt each other, but that's not our intent. The others have always been a big reason for us to keep going – we only want the best for them, even though we can mess up sometimes. [Miph is smiling, leaning slightly against Anon. To their right, Forest (brown) looks scared and hides against Goldie, who is hanging out with Summer. Summer has their arm around Goldie's shoulder and looks happy, their eyes closed. To the right of them, Mav is angrily gesticulating and telling off Roy, who has his arms crossed.]
