ive been reading this over the past few weeks and the final two chapters made me cry. riveting and super resonant, this feels so impossibly up my alley from the start and was so full of interesting details and choices that made me happy – as a robotics nerd, as a philosophy nerd, as a trans nerd with big feelings. i laughed and cried and just, loved every second. thank you for this incredibly moving, excellent comic, and the adventure it took me in. it’s been a privilege to live within its pages. it’s so beautiful to see a story about trans women written with such heart and beauty, subtlety, nuance, and above all – love. thank you, thank you, thank you

I just read through the entirety of this, it really impressed me, both from a story standpoint, as well as execution – the pacing, framing, even the ‘invisible’ stuff like panel work felt beautifully crafted. I will say it did leave me wanting a bit more, as I wanted to see how Al adjusted, but I understand that may be a different story.

I think I’ll go check out some of the other stories, now.

I just read this from start to finish in two days and am getting very teary over it. This is such a gorgeous story full of trans hope amidst a lot of uncertainty. I wish I had been following it since the beginning!

I only now came back to this story and finished it. Truly beautiful. This theme of gaining agency over one’s own body and becoming one’s own (co-)creator runs like a red thread all throughout the story, reflected in Al, Sulla, Lucille, the self-creating synthetic beings, it’s so fantastic. Nobody here is determined by the body they were given, and yet when they (re)build themselves, it’s never a solitary or lonely effort, but full of collaboration and love. Each character is allowed their own perspective, their own room to negotiate their identity & their relationships, their own pain and flaws. The final panel where Al slowly starts to resemble the ethereal figure from the very first panels, thereby closing the loop of self-creation, actually made me gasp out loud. Thank you so much. This story will stay with me for a while & I’ll definitely go read your other works <3

I just found this and stayed up way too late to finish it for two nights running. It is so astonishing and deep and heartbreaking and encouraging – thank you so much for all that work, all your imagination, all this story.

Guhhh. I read followed along with this comic back in like 2015 but stopped keeping up with it at some point. Rereading it and finishing it is so emotional and deeply satisfying. What a brilliant story of gender, humanity, grief, and trauma. I think this was one of the pivotal works that really got me thinking about gender expression when I was younger.

I don’t even remember how I stumbled across this story, but I’ve just read the whole thing in the past couple hours and now I’m tearing up. I can’t even put into words everything I’m getting from this. I love the way Al’s identity is explored. The way she died before ever coming to terms with who she was. The way she came back to life forced to pick up where she left off. It’s excruciating. It’s powerful. It’s… everything. And I love Tsade progressing beyond the expectation to conform to humanity- because it isn’t human. As humans, we tend to see ourselves as the ultimate lifeforms. We create robots in our image and AI to mimic us. But why should it hold itself back by accepting the same expectations? Humans are difficult. Identity is difficult. This story is breathtaking.

i keep coming back to this comic year after year. i first discovered it as a young frightened trans teen only coming to terms with her own gender and now even 5 years later I’m relating to this comic in new intriguing ways.

This comic meant a lot to a scared little girl in a world empty of positive representation. it still means so much to me now. I’ve always intensely related to Sulla but I’ve found myself relating more to Al in its re-read, its an interesting thought.
Thank you for writing this amazing comic.

I read this in two hours, and then went back to read it again. This is one of the most beautiful and well-put-together narratives about gender that I’ve ever read in my entire life, and I am living as a trans person in 2023. This is truly amazing, thank you.
