Tate, the descendant of a relatively famous activist, is a total sweetheart and can charm anyone, despite being a little slow. However, he's plagued by boredom and diffidence. As his luck would have it, a terrible, tall and horribly strong halfblood shows up to the entrance ceremony at Afrit. Arson's the first person he's met in years who's unapologetically mean, mysterious and totally closed off! Fluffy tails and sharp teeth clash as they try to learn to communicate and love each other...

lets gooooo revamp 2024!! the comic originally started in 2018-2019! To new-comers, this comic is gonna be revamped for a little and then return shortly to the scrunkly old artstyle, so enjoy the less edgy colors for now lol. Also: the new pages have a lot more EDGE, more DRAMA!!! (also yes i know there are grammar errors, please bear with me as im not native english and i do this for fun atm....but oplease do point out any mistakes so i can fix them!!!)
naw, whys that guy so mean to tate :( like what did he do besides being an annoying stalking creeper with no sense of boundaries?
(enjoy the longer updates while they last bcs i only did them in the beginning of the revamp, later we will return to 5 pages per update)
oh Tate's gonna get his a$$ beat (thats a promise)
one of my favs comments ever posted about the early updates was someone saying "thats kinda gay" and. instanly selfreplying with " wait, woman?"
Arsons more of a physical person so getting rejected on that level "confirmed" her insecurities...plus she most def wouldnt let him close, she was just pushing boundaries and trying to scare him off while reassuring herself that he's lying. Tate was literally in a doomed if you do and doomed if you dont situation. Arson is currently in lots of emotional turmoil, so she's incredibly complex.
aw damn, when you only like, a funky lil dude with funny eyes and the public decides to idolize you.... (also arson canonically understands concepts better with food analogies <3)
more show n tell, less edgy dialogue! Arson starts feeling guilty and wants to leave to spare tate... meanwhile tate's resilience is easily explained by his own mothers avoidance behavior.
lil green mersil also belongs to @/ tinynekomancer on ig
hell yeah, now you guys can see partially why Tate is so pushy and doesnt accept a "go away" as a "no". Also tates mom is as much (if not even more) of a mess than he is, the apple dont fall far lol
Bit of a shorter update bcs the second part of this comes literally in an hour. Had to split these because otherwise the chapter count on the revamp wouldve been off on all my other comic websites.
Arson no :( ... (bugel from the future, all my readers gonna be like "oh sh!t" coming back to this revamp lol ) (<--this is regarding chapters 109-120)
Aw hell na, when the stuff goes dark (arson cant see well in the dark whereas tate sees almost everything) (also, my color pallete skills have improved so much, im so proud)
Hugs for the angsty >:) special thanks to everyoen who participated in the dtyis over on IG, tapas and webtoon! also guest spot for ralph the stalker! from ralphs_logs on ig!!
molly has entere the chat (she is out for blood) (she's also based on a really evil cat called Njuska that my granma had and that was ready to kill any child in her area) (it was me, i was the child in her area.) A bit of a shorter update cus im moving! short hiatus coming up unfortunately, gonna post an update for it soon
aw hell na, not the childhood trauma (for further explanation, either go to my webtoon, tapas or Instagram) (just remeber the green man for later pages cus he's the catalyst for almost everything arson does)
dont treat real people like inhuman idols :( (shutout to all the peeps who provided me with some internet nasties (comments) to put in the bg lol, died reading them...honestly go ahead and continue the tate-hate in the comments here if u wanna #canceltateorlandow xoxo<3
sleep sleep zzz
Terry is wingmanning her so hard rn, too bad she feels nothing but mild friendship for tate atm (she's still overreacting to the feelings bcs her last big friendship didnt... go.... so well....)
Tate canonically loves REALLY bad, beemovie-romance movies and tv shows...he THRIVES when the story is extra corny
tate getting out the big guns to massage her lol also stalker spotted!!!! in the window!!
also have i mentioned here yet that Tate is canonically very much on the spectrum? little autism creature
arson is canonically very ugly, like most halfbloods lol, theyre just born far away from any beauty standards in this worlds society ( and Tate coincidentally has a very weird thing for hell cats)
oop, give tate his emotional support nightmare cat back.
He has a very obsessive personality type bcs of how instantly panicked he becomes... this will be an issue later in the comic
Them just being teenie weenies and having fun <3 when *Vine boom sfx* trauma.
Also, the mermaid got this ep blocked on several of my websites bcs of the shell placement
❌🤬sammy🤬❌
we finally caught up to the current revamp pages... now updates will commence weekly just how i usually do them. If you dont wann wait for the revamp pages you can simply check out Mean! on webtoons or tapas where we're already on episode 164!
sammy gets beat again lolololol cupboard gremlin is back.
Making this update a split update bcs the original pages prior to this revamp went by the principle of tell not show and i really hate them lol, so now theres gonna be more panels in this one episode.
yeah, changed sammy from leech without a job to actual douchebag with a job lolololol also Tate might seem like he's weird, switching from conversation topic to another topic, but considering how his brain works, it makes sense (hes partially ignoring things he doesnt like hearing, thats why he seems kinda..? scatterbrained? he can tune out certain information, much like the background people.
Tate and arson are actually two sides of a coin, both have a really bad side to their personality (cant wait to make tate go off the rockers in the new pages once the revamp is over ) _(´ཀ`」 ∠)_
Remember, it’s important to talk things out with your family members BUT! That doesn’t mean you owe them any kind of talk... a blood bond means nothing if the people you’re related to have hurt you or neglected you deliberately! Thank you for coming to my tedtalk :) (Bugel past the revamp, were going back to the old crusty artstyle from 2021!)
