Calf-Love (page 84)

This is about to become my longest Mansong comic, but we just have a few more pages left!

I love drawing these silly conversations… when love interests don’t actually establish anything, they’re just talking. It’s what I dream about 💕

I love this so much! I am here for all the conversations and bonding! Their banter is so perfect!

You're completely right, I love these little moments❤️❤️❤️

(Also worried about eloquence with this!) If there’s one thing in any fandom (even the most loving ones) I get put off by it’s the gender rolls debate (whether nsfw or otherwise). How gross it is to label anyone so intimately based on characteristics that make them more “traditionally feminine or masculine”. Song wears a dress, Song courts Mansa, Mansa loves to sew, Mansa has a high power government job. It’s not a woman’s dress, it’s Song’s dress. It’s not a man’s job, it’s Mansa’s job. I just want my characters to do what they enjoy regardless 💕

Whiteley Foster

I love this. The whole time reading all of your mansong comics, I’d pictured Mansa as the one who actively courted Song so I’m so delighted to see it’s the reverse (or both)!

Rachel Maxwell

Yeah he’s just running around in his undies! I’d say similar to shorts and a sports bra

Whiteley Foster

Omg wait. If song is currently in his underwear, does that mean he's often running around in underwear (since what he's currently wearing looks similar to his usual get up later) or is it socially more like you can't walk around in lingerie but a sports bra and leggings is fine and there's a difference to his garments we haven't seen bc he's been chilling, slumped in a pew this whole time? Asking the important questions here. 🤣

It is all about the friendship. Burning romance either fades or changes. It is why folks rush into things. We should all seek the bonds first. Hope that helps a bit. I was to rsh-y due to society ans all. But my late husband and I were slow burn for 12 years before we figured it out. 😉

This is actually so funny and sweet!!!

I really really hope I express what I want to express here with eloquence… I love that this isn’t a culture with deep heteronormative expectations for courting and dating… Mansa wants to be courted here… there isn’t an expectation that just because he’s male he is responsible for all the courting rituals… and just because Song likes to wear dresses he isn’t somehow a ‘woman’ in this scenario that needs to be wooed or chased. It’s just so lovely and refreshing… the challenges between humans and infernals are angsty enough… I love them stating what they want and none of it feels strange or out of place. It’s just all so wonderful ❤️❤️❤️

The banter! Banter is so critical in the early days

I’m sitting in the middle of my physical therapist’s waiting room giggling and getting a lot of strange looks for it. 🙂

Andie Stabler

I'm loving this! But I'm still a bit nervous about the lost coat....

Susanne mizz_uzie Olsson

gosh i lov these 2 ❤💙

I'm aroace and sometimes it's hard for me to get like, what exactly makes characters fall in love. Like the creators tell me "these people love each other" and I'm like okay but ... why? Conversations like this are why, getting to know each other and learning about each other. So thanks for showing not telling.

So often in books I read (I read a LOT of YA for a person in their 30s) the protagonist goes from meeting some ridiculously attractive person to thinking “This is the person I’m in love with/smitten with, etc,” but there’s never been a fun or relaxed conversation like this so it doesn’t feel founded on anything. Moments like this are the lifeblood of real love and companionship, in my opinion. 🥰🥰🥰

AJ

I adore watching them just banter and enjoy each other!

Ashfae

Agreed!! That moment has so much heart!!

AJ

GOD THIS IS SO SOFT AND SWEET

Ash S.

Haha I love how quickly they’re bantering! And I’m glad they acknowledged the seeing Song in his pants thing 😂 Edit: I mean underpants. I’m British

Clare

I love this, because I agree with you about the silly conversations! 🥰🥰 I don't really see it very often in media I follow, so (off-topic alert!) that was one thing that took me pleasantly by surprise in OFMD - Stede and Blackbeard having that ridiculous conversation about Blackbeard's Bar and Grill is one of my favourite moments of the series! 😂😂🥰🥰🥰

M

Ok, but honestly, I want this. Right off discussing what's acceptable and expected when dating? I NEED this. This is clear communication even if it looks and feels silly, and they have fun doing it, both are clearly taking notes. 👏👏👏

I am currently imagining Mansa clutching his first bouquet of (not stolen, honestly) daffodils from Song, and it is glowing butter yellow in my heart. 🥹💛

Jem

Dalias!

Whiteley Foster

Dawww ❤️🥺Are daffodils Mansas fav flower? Does Song have a fav flower?

Little0cean

I love silly little conversations. It tells me why they love each other. :)

Neil K.

🥺🥺I love them so much 🥺🥺

Dominika Beregi

So he's two for three right now and if daffodils are currently in bloom...

StellaSapiente

awwww, this is such a sweet conversation to have, and I love how they are having fun with it ☺️❤️ and the loveliest face expression on Mansa now, I CAN'T WITH THIS MAN 😍❤️❤️❤️
