The Vast Gap Between Us pg 4 (commentary) (Patreon)

I'm still learning how to draw these characters, but I really want to make a bunch of silly expressions for Sylara. She's so cute, I really want to make her goofy.

Here's the introduction to love interest, Ares. His name comes from the Greek god of war, which I picked purely out of irony, as Ares is very calm and collected.

Xander is not from this area, and his first language was French. He was very much inspired by Gambit of the X-Men, so a little bit of French slips into his dialogue.

The symbols on the can is Japanese Katakana. It reads "coco-cora."
