i already noted that wheeeeeee sound you made up there: that same one from waaaaaay back when alastair was being a stand-offish dick, and had wound up with leaves in his hair and a chill in his cybernetic spine for his troubles.
happy birthday blue! i hope youre having a good one!!
im not good at making theories but i cant stop thinking about al’s parents. they sure didnt throw him out because hes gay, since brendan is his first boyfriend (at the morning after brendan said something like “for the first time having sex with a guy you were pretty good”) and i think i saw blue mentioning something about al being queer, and not gay. im really interested about al’s background but i dont want to believe in my own (probably wrong) theories!! ahhh i really cant wait until the next update.
I love your comic (just got into it last week) and happy birthday!!
By the way that Al was concerned with the ballerina and
Sulla’s choice to be female, my guess is that there was a feminine/queer tendency that caused a rift. I wouldn’t go so far as to say he was trans but i would bet that it was some kind of gender/gender behavior crisis.
also, i want to say that i too am enthralled with the technique you used to draw the SNAP: it was really eye-catching!
additionally, i feel comfortable co-sponsoring the theory that al had dabbled in some “not masculine/gender-appropriate” activities in his youth, which had eventually led to his estrangement from his parentals.
it pains me to see that mr. sterling “doesn’t want to talk about it,” since bren-bren obviously want to know more about al: and it can be really freaking hard to continue maintaining a loving connection with someone who is wont to be distant or secretive instead of open!
of course..
..when you have Trust Issues, like alastair, it’s not entirely unreasonable to expect him to be more reserved about his troubled past, as he continues feeling his way around (non-sexual): why open yourself up like that to a person whom you don’t even know will be around for the long haul?
Happy Birthday! ^_^ I wish we could give you such an excellent present as you give us with every update, but I hope you have a great birthday!
many felicitous returns, blue!
was al caught with olde-tyme gay porn under his mattress and thus became disowned?

It’s nice to learn a bit about Al’s backstory… even if it’s only a teensy bit for now. I’m Really in love with this story and characters.
