Thank you so much!! :'D Awh, if your mom sees this, I hope this comic can leave her with a good feeling <3
Oh! Actually, Rayyan doesn't go by Rikke anymore. He changed name a while ago
Funny story, the human version of their character has changed A LOT over the years. He changed name, age and even gender. So, Rikke is now Rayyan and identifies as a trans man/agender (Hard to explain, but it's based on how I identify myself. They and I go by him/they pronouns.)
After all these changes to the human version, I finally came back to the fox version and was met with the old "Rikke" again.
And it felt wrong... It felt wrong for Ray to be a cis vixen with their dead name in the fox version, when the human version was trans masculine... But at the same time I was worried and thinking "Can animals even be trans? I know they can be gay and there are animals who do change sex in their lives. But has there ever been a transgender fox/animal?... Am I just being really silly now??"
I thought about it for a while and decided that. "You know what... This is my story and why shouldn't there be a cool fox in here I can identify with on that level? So what if people say being trans or non binary doesn't exist in the animal kingdom. It does in my story " and I'm very happy with that decision <3
I completely see however why you might've thought that Rayyan was still Rikke, since I haven't really stated it anywhere that fox Rayyan is also trans So no worries there <3 I was actually really surprised that you remembered his old name! In a good "oh my gosh, you remember that?" sort of way!
Thank you so much for your feeback! It's was very comforting to hear ;u;

No, that's Ludvig, Kian and Ty. These short comics take place before the big story, so Loke is still on the farm ; n ;
(Ty! Get a move on! Go save your sweetheart!!! )
