Connie on Ko-fi ⁣ [3-panel comic of a girl with a braid, being cynical to hide her idealism. In panel 1, Elephant says, "Happy Valentine's Day." Girl, not stopping her stride, scoffs, "BAH! Love means nothing to me!" Panel 2 is a beat, girl walks away. In panel 3, still poker faced, the girl's unspoken thought bubble reads, "Love means everything to me." Original webcomic strip by Connie Sun, cartoonconnie, 2022.]⁣ ⁣

Connie on Ko-fi ⁣ [4-panel comic of a girl with a braid, talking to an elephant. In panel 1, she says, "I didn't do enough this year." In panel 2, she continues: "And yet, it feels like I did all I could." Elephant pauses briefly to listen. Panel 3 is borderless and Elephant says knowingly, while walking off the panel, "What about all those k-dramas you binge-watched? That's something." In panel 4, girl bristles with a touch of attitude at being called out: "Oh right. thanks." Off-camera, Elephant says, "anytime."]⁣

Taking breaks from social media in tense times. ⁣ ⁣ Thanks for reading and wishing you safe.⁣ ⁣ [Two-panel webcomic of an elephant and a girl with a braid, standing in a corner, covering her ears. In panel 1, Elephant asks, "What are you doing?" In panel 2, girl looks up, ears still covered, and answers "Social media detox." After a beat, she adds, "Humans can be very shout-y."]⁣

[Two-panel borderless comic of a girl with a bun, lounging on a couch, as an elephant casually walks by. In panel 1, she wonders out loud, "How does anybody get good at dating?" Elephant answers matter-of-factly, "Same as everything...you need experience." In panel 2, she looks up at the ceiling in frustration and says, "Damn it all. Life is so unfair." Elephant is already halfway off-frame and says, "Take it or leave it."]

[3-panel comic of a girl with a braid, remarking that she "needs a hug." In panel 1, elephant looks on. In panel 2, elephant calmly shuffles closer, back first. Panel 3, elephant backs right into her with a "PLOP!" and asks, "How's that?" as her eyes bulge under the weight of an elephant hug.]

[3-panel comic of a girl with a braid looking a little bit melancholy. Text reads, "Holidays make me feel sadder than usual - even if I'm fine and nothing's wrong." In panel 2, she gives herself a hug. Panel 3 zooms out to show an elephant in the frame. Girl, still hugging herself, says "Let me be kinder to myself today." Elephant adds that "All is not lost. Maybe somebody you know made pie."]

If my heart could talk, it would complain of a brutal dictatorship. ⁣ ⁣ Sketchbook comic ⁣ ⁣ [3-panel sketchbook comic without panel borders. Shows sullen girl with a braid, arms crossed, her back to a forlorn-looking red heart that is locked in a birdcage. In panel 2, she turns to the caged heart and scolds, "Don't even think of coming out until you're ready to behave." Text reads: "My creativity is closely tied to my emotions...When I can't express myself openly, it blocks my ability to draw and write." In panel 3, Elephant comments, "That's not very nice to your heart," to which Heart echoes, "Yeah." Girl says dramatically, "HEY! This is really cutting into my productivity!" There's a flashing arrow pointed right at her that says "TYRANT."]⁣ ⁣
