Scribble Comic: Buying Tea

Another return to form, panel free scribble comic. Shyam buying tea for a friend she definitely, TOTALLY doesn't have a crush on, at the point in the story this is from. Shyam is ironically a lot more confident and assertive around centaurs than Talita is.

I love this so much. Shyam wanting to get something nice for Talita, and getting to see a Centaur who doesn't copy human gestures is so delightful. I especially like how their eyes get wide which comes off as confused or surprised, coupled with curling their trunk to the sides which I dont believe has a specific meaning but kinda seems to come up in questioning or surprised context, a sort of "huh"/"huh?". Oh and I really like the last drawing, where the Centaur isn't doing a full angry S trunk but is like partially there, it comes off as either annoyed or stern - maybe more stern, I feel like if they were annoyed they'd go full S trunk. Very cool, love this!

I end up scrolling through your patreon A LOT because I'm always trying to reference your stuff when my friends talk about world building and i ALWAYS stop to look at this comic <3 <3 <3 I'm obsessed with the word "tea" having such a wide meaning and the ink

I always love seeing examples of centaur body language in action because it’s easy when you only see Talita emoting to not think about how very human her body language is; it just seems natural from a human-centric viewpoint that everybody would emote the same way because that’s how people emote! But getting to see a centaur who’s (presumably) been raised by/around other centaurs interact with a character we’re familiar with really highlights how odd Talita must come across to other centaurs and people used to them.
