Author Notes:
But yeah, we mentioned Petey waaaay back, in that he as abandoned by his parents and lives at the school. I felt like he was an interesting one to look at given his status was a pretty big question mark, and after all the trauma I've had over the last few months of moving I wanted to do something nice and comforting with the answer.
In general looking at these two made me realize how much I've missed not having the other students in the background since the school was shut down. Martin's chapter for Blues won't be taking place in the school so there won't be a chance to have them pop up, but this made me very eager to show them off in the chapter following. They did a lot to make the place feel more homey. And home is something that's been on my mind a lot. ^^

Yeah red-blood school is weird and dumb all groups and sabotage and sometimes biowarfare

... Which along that line I don't think we've ever actually done for Taktaq. Weird.
Might recognize that Taktaq actually looks pretty different here than we've seen her before, with a different haircut and darker hair, plus tried giving her more rounded cheeks and a more prominent nose. Kind of wanted to lean into things and make her look a bit more obvious Inuit, feel like it's something that's both more appropriate and makes her more visually distinct in the process. Lot of that was just stuff I did in the coloring rather than something Adam was really planning while doing it admittedly but hey, he seemed to like it.
As a reminder in case you didn't see, we delayed the start of the next chapter by a couple of weeks. Adam's now gotten back to work so kind of settling into a new routine at his new place, lot of the craziness of recent months will probably die down a bit from here. Feels weird to think that he's been living in WV for over a week now but not actually gotten the chance to see him in person since then but kind of a consequence of still living like an hour apart from each other. Either way, next chapter is in the works and super looking forward to getting to posting it.
