there is no affection between the lodger and i. they are not some treasured acquaintance that i reluctantly love. we didn't choose each other. if they would ever leave, i could finally use that room for something else. the lodger stayed in a basement under a blanket for almost twenty years, and that was the closest to happy they ever were. if it had been possible, i would have left them there.

Starting off Artslam easy by trying to remember how to draw my own characters! I've spent the past while drawing a babyfaced little goblinesque loser (Lou) so I've forgotten what butchy mcbitchface here is supposed to look like

"Ollie, you know you’re my brother. I can only hope that I’m half the husband you are and, when the time comes, half the dad. Sammy, the best man. No truer words were ever spoken. I trust you with my life because - because, no matter what happens, I know you’ll always have my back. I love you, man. And to my beautiful wife Traci. You aren’t just part of my life. You are my life. You have taken this simple man and made him a king. Until the day I die you will always hold the key to my heart."
