It's meant to be for 28th March but happy (late) birthday to myself!For those who know my birthday... Yes, I give Edge the same birthday as mine (except the year) mainly to reference my version of Underfell Sans in my content and AUs.
As for Sci, his birthday is a reference to my main persona's birthday which I used to go by that birthday a long time ago online. Despite that, February 10th still resonates with me personally. Also, around that day this year, I've seen many people start using the same specific date to celebrate Science Sans' birthday and I wasn't pleased when some credit my version of Sci to somebody else who never own "Science Sans".
Anyway, I created this comic because of my despise and decided to finally confirm my version of Sci and Edge's birthdays public (besides in their character bio pages for UnderDespair). Besides that, before my birthday was coming, I respond to one of Cuddles (cuddlypfudor)'s Instagram stories and begin to use it as the base of inspiration instead of making a rant or vent comic.
Because I'm mostly brought up with Eastern cultures, some people with Western backgrounds find it surprising to see me eating a pizza slice with a fork. I'm the type who likes my hands neat and clean so I would rather use a napkin or plastic bag without the need to wash my hands from the grease. When I talked to Cuddles who was questioning about eating rice with a spoon or a fork, she never thought about using chopsticks.
Since the comic is about birthdays, I noticed most people eat cakes with a fork because I personally use a spoon instead. I never try eating a slice of cake with chopsticks before but it would be funnier if Sci did while finding that method normal to him.
Besides scifell, I have a thing for Edge and Dance (dancefell) as best friends with Sci (scidancefell) as my favourite trio. Unfortunately, Dance is more of a side character but at least it's about time I finally draw him in my content ever since I created my newest design for my version of Dancetale Sans. Also, I kinda want to call them the "ass-trio" because Sci is a "smartass", Dance the "dumbass" and Edge the "asshole" of the group.
Other than my usual invisible secret inks (except for the first part as the cover), there's a reference I added to the comic if anybody noticed. It's been so long I watched that video trailer and it's still funny today.
Also, the last two panels allude more to my UnderDespair AU which I don't want to spoil. If the entire writing is complete, the whole comic could be more heartwrenching or bittersweet instead. Because I'm not going to confirm, there are a lot more speculations between the two but for now, it's more leaning to feeling wholesome seeing Sci and Edge having a serious talk to each other at the end.
P.S. Besides the delay in posting from having no internet during early April (and recently electricity problems)... It feels a "while" since I draw something again so I kinda forgot how I usually type on my blog posts. Anyway, I'll edit this post later to share my details of what I like and could have improved when making this comic along with a speedpaint if my laptop cooperates with me. Now, I've got a few things I want to do, draw and plan!
