Henris has a weird tendency to run out and sit in the snow when he's feeling sorry for himself

Girard leaned over, head in her hands in relief as Mary finally fell asleep after a 2 hour long crying fit. Her hand hurt from shaking her baby’s rattle and her ears were practically shot from the sound of wailing. She couldn’t believe this was her life now. A lump formed in her throat thinking about how much of her life she had thrown away. She loved Mary-Liz, of course, she was her own flesh and blood and as soon as she held her baby in that dingey medical ward, that this was her pride and joy. Even so, she missed her old life. Fucking around, getting drunk every night, hanging out with her friends and fellow gangsters, before motherhood. It hurt. It hurt bad.

The Lackadaisy (rubber) Band This was a concept piece for something we’ve been working on relating to the animated film. Bits and pieces of it have shown up in recent stream thumbnails, so I figured I’d just go ahead and share the whole image. ———————- Lackadaisy is on Patreon - there’s extra stuff!
