Lovecraftian Cthulhu-Geese?

*tails goes to tickles tickles ya for being first* 0w0 giggles geese is retired

as someone who has a high empathic sensory to emotional pain and trauma, this page much like the page where her father and mother argued, was a major, major heartbreaker. i want her father's reward for her to be denied full force and for her to be re-raised in a positive group. just like i had to do with my boyfriend when i introduced him to abdl

Wow that’s intense. But yea I agree

Poor baby! :(

Poor Saffy

LAST!!!

No you're not

Wait really!?!? I thought they were!!!

Never thought I'd see the day Cleo shed tears for a baby girl. I think she senses Saffy's pain. If she knew the truth she'd probably put her daddy down to the paddle perhaps one hundred whacks in a row.

YESSSS! Regress the dad!

I think that's a good idea but he deserves to be locked away for life then regressed in prison with a new daddy called big molly.

Right in the feels ;_;

this is pretty sad :c

Wow. Seeing this, I'm really hoping that once the hypnosis wears off that Saffy is kept in diapers and given a second childhood since she never had any in the first place. She so needs some full-time babying.

I hope too. Because it's the better way for relax her.

I third this idea! Saffy needs to stay diapered, 24/7!

And to be babified 24/7, during all her life.

Well, she enjoys being a mechanic/engineer. Inventing stuff and repairing stuff and building stuff. So maybe more like a toddler with responsibilities and who requires additional care, like changes, bottles, naps, etc.

Yeah.

Both. Definitely both. Time to be little, time to be great mechanic, repeat . Oh, and of course during both times, being cared for as a person instead of just a cog in a giant machine.

Absolutely... but with her diapers, as they can't just risk her leaving puddles everywhere...

Yes, she definitely needs therapeutic babying. Perhaps a mechanic during work hours, but then after work toys, dolls, thinker toys, building blocks, etc. with lots of love and encouragement to have fun, and regular bottle feeding and diaper changes all the time, day and night.

Yes!

I have a real bad feeling about how she was reacting to cleo leaving. I’m getting the feeling her horrible father made her mom leave because of something she did last like playing

Her dad has huge American Mafia vibes so I have a feeling her dad did a lot more than making the mom leave

Lets say Saffys family life is....more complicated than most I guess.

I had a friend whose family had very similar vibes too, once... It was always heartbreaking and infuriating when the mask would crack and one day she came to me and gave me every virtual possession she owned and then just... vanished. Gone. Dropped off the face of the earth, never to be seen again. It was like 2012 or so... she was like 15 at most... I can only imagine the worst and the fact I could do nothing to help her still eats at my soul constantly. All I do is carry on the tiny fragments left of a transient virtual legacy that I have no 'ownership' of to keep forever because of how internet policy is... ; ;

This whole arc with saffy has been hitting me way closer to home on multiple different fronts and I stay invested in a large part because I know (at least in this comic) Star is out to eventually create a happy end for this poor little otter ;-;

Heart aching. But also in a way I like to think therapeutic. Betting loads of us have had moments where we wanted/needed a good cry and just couldn't. @.@

Here's hoping Saffy can one day look back at this moment, presuming she remembers it at all, and laugh.

Wow this taps my hurt and lonely buttons quite a bit I love this comic so much I wish you the best star I know these emotional pages are really hard on you

Ah flip. Tears rolling down

yikes....
oh, man...

I understand this level of abandonment trauma personally and I feel this pain in my chest reading this. This is not a complaint, it's beautiful and therapeutic to know I'm not alone in having these feelings. Thank you. <3

This absolutely just breaks my heart seeing someone with a wounded inner child and in this regressed state no less forcing those wounds to become visible in such a way.

My heart is going to jump out of my chest! What is it? Nana is crying and so is poor Saffy!

I think i gained a depression.

Oh poor dear 💔
Goodness this ome males me feel for both Saffy and Cleo so much. I know for me while in little space the same fears I had at that actual age come back, as I was left alone and neglected alot, I get really attached to people if I meet them while I'm little. And it's very hard to explain to someone in a baby or toddler headspace that a person isn't leaving because they were bad, but because sometimes they have things they gotta go do, but they'll come back.
At the same time I feel for Cleo, in being a caregiver there's a chance your little will have trauma, and one of the hardest things to except is while yes you can fix the smaller things, a messy diaper? You can change that, hungry? Some cheerios scattered on the tabke and a warm bottle. Cuddles? Hold then close and remind them how loved they are.
But with trauma, that's not a quick fix, it's a long journey of stumbles and reasurrance and moving forward to heal, while also recognizing its okay to have scars.

This page is probably one of my favorites so far, and definetly one that makes me the most emotional. Bravo!

Oh, Saff... I feel ya, kiddo </3

Hmmm, I'm thinking "Mom" walked out on the family and never came back. Maybe haf enough of "Dad"

You conveyed the emotions really well Sammy. You can feel it just by looking at the art.
I know that scared heartbroken feeling when someone is leaving. Even for a bit but it might feel like forever. Like you'll never see them again. Poor Saffy. Ive said it before and I'll say it again, poor Saffy.

Oh, that's a hard page. Poor Saffy...

Excuse me I did not order a gutpunch, I ordered a salad, thank you

Holy geez, this is heavy. It hits home too. I feel so bad for her 😭

This is sad scene but the runny nose looks to real lol

The more I read, the more I feel sorry for saffy….. 🥺🥺😢😢😭😭😭😭

This one hit me kinda hard not sure why but it really does.

But i really do love these comics

my heart it's breaking i've been in this situation with my cubs it always hurts *scoops up Saffy and hugs her singing my sunshine*

Omg instant tears this one hit me hard and close to the heart

Poor Saffy...

This page is something that I can really relate to, not in the point of Saffy, but of Cleo, I have a friend of mine that have separation anxiety, and I've been through this kind of situation in this page very often...

I feel so sorry I need to leave him...

Poor girl...

That broke my heart so much,, poor Saffy ;_;

I can relate fear of abandonment is not a fun thing

the way it sounds we would have to invent a mindwipe and start over from the beginning with saffy

I want to give Cleo such a big hug >W<

Poor Saffy

huge hugs

BPD

Lore

That brought me to tears just to read.

Chaos on Wall Street today as Johnson & Johnson stock rocketed after record sales of tissues. More on that at 5.

Oh my god... this page just shatters my heart. What the fuck did Saffy's parents do to her.if I ever find them I will legit kill them for what they did to her. No one deserves to be treated like this.

jesus. Saffy got some demons locked away in there. poor kid...

Me jus wanna huggle saffy an say it all be ok T-T

Separation anxiety isn't such a fun thing...

When this started out I was thinking this was gonna help saffy recuperate through being little but seeing how she's reacted to the experience this looks like it's doing more harm than good and I'm worried about her.

This could be therapeutic to her, and lead to good things. Now the rest of the crew knows about her trauma somewhat and can help

Dang. This page and the previous one was definitely a gut punch for the feels for her.

I am at loss for words, If I didn't dislike Stacy's dad before I most certainly do now

I felt this page so much... I keep getting ghosted for no reason and my mental state made it where separation anxiety started to develop, any now, well now I'm afraid when somebody doesn't answer me in a text, I don't want them to leave me too...

Wow what ever her father did to her was deep rooted.
Sorry this maybe long winded waffle

The night time programming must of brought her little side out to protect her.

if it gives her a way of avoid the gas in the can effect it maybe more important. it helps her release the pent up mental scars and help her move from from Her trauma.

For people un aware of the gas in the can effect its more commonly know as bottling up and the night programming she was accidentally exposed to was the opener that opened the lid.

I think her brain reacted in the best way it could help her realise that trauma but put her in pre trauma age to help her open up for her sanity.

Think if saff works through and understands her trauma and she wasn't allowed a childhood by her cruel father.
It may help her understand she was a victim and understanding that having a second childhood or little side and not be ashamed of it may help her cope in future

Perhaps a night-time hypnosis program can be created specifically for her? "Saffy is a good baby girl. Playing with toys is perfectly fine. Saffy can have as many toys as she wants."

THIS!!

That crush my heart...

omg poor safferon if i was a character in the story i would probably help her to calm down i cant believe her past was so traumatic and her parents were so mean and all so well how do ya put it um so un nice

i hope that saffy is okay

Dawww Poor Saffy, so much past trauma. Hope it all gets worked through in the end and she finds happiness.

That's some heccin' trauma right there. Poor thing.

Don't worry Saffy Nana will be right back just like she said she would be

Give Saffy this cookie
Maybe it will help her feel better

Cleo has experienced this before in some form.

damn, this made me tear up, anyone else want to give poor Saffy a hug?

to reiterate BAM have some plot bitches

LOL! yeah I did say that didnt I :D

Poor saffy your going to be okay. Hugs .

This breaks my heart, for Cleo and saffy

I get that last panel every time my little niece comes over for an overnight visit. Whenever she wakes up in the morning, she constantly screams for her mommy and/or daddy and won't take her grandparents' offers...

...I think it's because she keeps waking in a house that's "strange" to her. And let me tell you, it can take nearly an hour to calm her down again for any breakfast....

I'm not over here fixing my heart with scotch tape, and there's ninjas with onions in the room, I swear.

This hits hard i miss my family so much but they pushed me out of there lives after i came out of the closet its like theres something wrong with me why do i want people that hate me for being me to care about me.... all i want is family any family people to talk to to hang out with and have fun with make memories and care about.... i wish i could hug saffy

Heck x_x well done on this page....it feels

quiero matar a sus padres o los causantes de que ella este tan traumada

(lo siento por no traducir mi comentario, pero me siento muy serio como para traducirlo)

💔 poor saffy

Someone get that otter some serious cuddles

I see it really breaks Cleo’s heart to leave saffy like this well done Star A material here slides geese bread for commenting so late, leaves behind some squishy foam blocks for the little ones to chew on and play with

The one time I click a link without context... 🤣

I feel so bad for Nana and Saffy. This page hit me right in the feels.

No damage is worse in this whole world then hurttinf the mind. All the guns and bombs in the world cant compare.

This ine really hit me in the feels.
She needs tonbe scooped up into a hug.

Oh poor sweet Saffy. Cleo really doesn’t like seeing her little ones in pain like this. Hopefully Saffy gets attached to other people who can care for her as well so that she hopefully can feel a little more at ease when she isn’t with Cleo. Saffy definitely needs LOTS of love, attention, care, and reassurance from people who will actually care for her. Something also tells me that Saffy will not be allowed to hide her past from the caretakers anymore, and will be gently encouraged to open up so they can help her work through her trauma. Hopefully that will help her have a better more fulfilling future.

Who put these tears on my face

oh god, separation anxiety. I know that feeling all too well. Certainly I don't think I've ever had an experience as harsh as Saffy's but I definitely can relate to her

I am impressed that cleo is able to keep her act up like that. I mean she is incredibly tough. And it is a nice addition that she drops her accent when she can't keep it up. Amazing page. It really delivers her distress so well. (I hope i didn't come off as cold with this.)

Seeing Cleo of all people shed genuine tears of sadness and heartache actually made my soul hurt and crack. And I say that I’m a good way. It just shows how powerful moments like this are.

wow the feels in your comics!

Wow, this page actually made me cry. Maybe it's because when I was a toddler I'd always ask my adoptive mom if she'd be back for me when she had to leave, during the time I was still in foster care. Oof, time to read more of this comic lol

Aww

this page...hurts

STOOOP IT I CAN'T TAKE IT wont lie I'm really cry here

damn it man, the feels!
