Suzanne is... panicky. It's funny cus' she's not that bad at socializing when she's calm but it all goes to hell pretty quick when she's stressed.

Sometimes extroverts drive me nuts. They can be some of the worst people in the world.
That one extrovert who pops in to mellow stressful situations or manage social stuff with other people in mind though... THAT extrovert has my eternal gratitude.

Kim is a pretty socially open character... which makes her a great foil for the much more guarded and internal Suzanne.

Something of a literary trick, you can use a character's curiosity to hint at things you want your audience to pay attention to.

Most of the changes I've made for the reboot have been tiny. Mostly just line changes. One thing that has surprised me is just how much I've changed Suzanne as a character. I gained a much better understanding of her over the course of the original run. She was definitely Flanderized... but in a good way I think.

Really tried to get this release out by today as I'm about to head out to a family reunion for a week and a half. Gonna bring a sketchbook to continue working on Octeal while I'm there... which will be interesting because I've been all digital for a long time... I wonder if I'm out of practice with regular old pencil and paper.

... Heheh, I wonder if any of the folks who read the original run feel a little twinge of fear seeing Song again~

In the original run I realized the apartment building had a layout that was physically impossible purely because of a stairwell between the first and second floor and how it related to Suzanne's room (which overlooks the pool). It's not really significant but it did always kinda bug me.

I'll be editing some of these panels when the full episode comes out... somehow, I drew an very good version of forward-facing Suzanne in the third panel but abruptly lost that in later panels. Heheh...
