Yes, he's holding both gloves in one hand. This is his summer uniform, since his elevator hangs on the outside of the building. The gloves are meant to be used with his winter uniform, but he sometimes uses them in summer anyway.

Next for the diagram is Justin, the elevator operator (or Lift Attendant because 🇬🇧) of the rodent haven. Justin is a rat and has worked hard to have a calm relaxed life. A skilled tinkerer and always willing to lend an ear, if you're willing to ride with him. Three more to go

An anthropomorphic rat in a red, short-sleved uniform, tips his peaked cap as he waves, smiling, with his other hand. He holds his hat with a gloved hand, in which he also holds the glove of his waving hand. His uniform features four large gold-colored button fasteners and two rank stripes on the sleeve.

Optimist: the cup is half full Pessimist: the cup is half empty Student: Yeah but which one is going to be on the test? Teacher: wha... both of them! Student: yeah, but which one is the *correct* one? Teacher: There is no correct or incorrect! I just spent an hour explaining that!

Optimist: the cup is half full Pessimist: the cup is half empty Comic Artist: Why are there so many cups of water in this script?! What does a cup of water even look like?! The script doesn’t even say how much water is in the cup! I guess I’ll just put like half the water in it?!

In this season of all our produce and berries and crap getting recalled from major grocery stores bc of contamination and parasites etc, I’ve never been happier that small farmers markets exist 😭 thank you for growing things and supporting our local communities, farmers

Chart updated! The arrows are getting a little unwieldly, but at least there's only two gaps left to fill in the bottom half now! (About half of those at the "alter" level were at the "main character" level when I started, forming a neat pyramid but… traumas strike hard… and they got "introjected")

Sonas: Mouse, human, Pic-chu; willing TF between mouse and human, curse trigger to pic-chu.
Alters: Kitten (a were-cat), Jason (a mouse), Jane (a mouse), Susan (a young mouse), Ms. Rei & Bea (Pik-achus), Missingno (a Raichu-meowth fusion), Evan (an Umbreon).
Main cast: Bonnie & Alvin (foxes), Sparkey-chan (a Raichu).
Recurring cast: Sean (a squirrel), Clara & Bobby (foxes), Camila (a Fairy), Silly (a Typhlosion).
Jason calls the sonas "wierdo". Jane calls Jason "Little bro" and the sonas "Hubby". Susan calls Jane "Mom". Missingno calls them "Mistress". Ms. Rei calls Missingno "Kid". Missingno calls the sonas "Master", they call him "Son". Evan calls Ms. Rei "ma'm". Sparkey calls the sonas "Onii-chan", Ms. Rei "Mama-san", and Bea "Obaa-san". Bea calls her "Sparkey-kun" and the sonas "Franke-tan". 'Susan calls Camila "Cammie". Camila calls Jane "Ms. Susan's Mom". Alvin calls Susan "Ms. Jane's Kit", bonnie, "Sis"; Clara, "But mom…!"; and Bobby, "dad". Evan calls Silly, "Sir".

Today's intrusive thought is when I said that all I was looking in a girl is that she cared about me and had things for me to care about her... and how this had proved seemingly impossible to find ...yes, the depresion has not fully lifted yet

There's an interesting story behind each of the names on the arrows. For instance, Bobby calls his children "Little A" and "Little B" because, when they were little, they didn't want to learn the alphabet. Wanting to know what their nicknames meant proved a surprisingly strong motivator!

The next alter for the diagram is Clara Redneck (a lot of my characters have literal names that have nothing to do with the connotations humans give them). Clara is rather quiet and reserved due to being hurt very deeply several times in her life. She is Alvin and Bonnie's mother, and Bobby's wife.

A red fox with stocking markings up to her elbows looks off to the side. The red of her back interrupts her underbelly at the neck forming what resembles a necklace. Her build is leaner than the previous foxes and her underbelly is whiter.

People, young and old, came to the witch for directions. "I seek adventure." "I seek wisdom." "I need a place to feel at home." "I feel like I need to cry, but I can't." The witch listened, and told all where to find what they sought. And the local library thrived. #CrossRepost
