So close to the end!


Lethargic, Listless, Bored

Crappy, Crushed, Depressed

Disappointed, Envious, Pessimistic

Jealous, Lonely, Melancholy

Morose, Numb, Rejected

Cold, Dirty, Drunk

Commentary!
  • Well, Jealous is in conversation with Naughty, though making sure I could fit the idea into the space allotted took some wrangling.
  • Pessimistic is in conversation with Optimistic and Cynical; it's less sad if you imagine that the conversation goes Cynical to Pessimistic to Optimistic, with someone filling the glass with juice off-screen between the last two moods 😅
  • The idea with Envious is that the pigeon wants tiny hands and the rat wants wings; it makes me want to make a pigeon mood theme as a compliment to this one!
  • I originally sketched out Cold when my heater died in ...January? February? Very early in the year, during some ungodly cold snap.
  • Drunk, meanwhile, I originally drew for a fun Mardi Gras joke I made 😉 Same for at least one other rat, though I won't be officially "introducing" them until after Part 8


  • I think that's all my commentary for now, but if you want to know more about any of these rats, I'll be happy to keep going!
