Ahh yeah, imo interacting with a small community of like minded folks is the more healthy use of social media. It's definitely the aimless scrolling you want to avoid heh.

he's a sad egg. what can we do. I'm sure that won't become everyone's problem in later episodes lol

Haha, welcome to the darkside, you've fought valiantly, but alas... Anyway, I highly recommend limiting the amount of time you spend on socials lol.

Totally agree, Caine would be operating out of a desire for validation and probably also a feeling of abandonment. poor gent.

I think your Caine comes off as being work-stressed and a little strung-out, but not evil or a villain. He just seems like a man at his wits end, who just got off a 14 hour shift and has to be back again at 7 am the next day😂
Also your little cute Caines are unparalleled, and cannot be seen as evil!

love this drawing! He looks so adorable in your style 😭

I feel you on this, I tend to hold my commentary and only blab about these sorts of things to a few friends. It's very intimidating putting your opinions out there.

Lol, yeah, I think my thought process was Caine would be trying to get you back on his side every step of the way, the way Glados does
December 7, 2025 at 10:11 AM
oh gosh, please don't feel that way! Nobody is entitled to anyone's time on the web <3, but I do appreciate your comments!!
December 7, 2025 at 10:09 AM
AHH NO!! HE'S JUST A LITTLE GUY.... surrounded by a sea of raging Caines... lol
December 7, 2025 at 5:16 AM
baww thank you <33 :")
December 7, 2025 at 5:16 AM
such a good point!!
Also, I imagine Caine is closer to being Glados from portal than AM from I have no mouth and I must scream, if you really get down to brass tacks. BUT, I am not gooseworks so the heck do I know really lol

Love the analysis you put forth, however!!

Damn, is this seriously true? :(((
I've existed so long doing OC art or being in dead fandoms, everything in tadc feels INSANELY popular to me...

Caine is such an interesting character, folks are missing out on him if so...
December 7, 2025 at 5:14 AM
This is a totally looney take, but I'm amused thinking about why characters close to abstraction are consistently shown 'hallucinating' the exit door? Plus, why the heck would Caine lie about there being one in the first place (esp if it was his attempt at satisfying the humans desires to leave)?

To be honest, I don't know if there's a single platform that feels 'good' currently? But bluesky is nice for mucking about and interacting with folks more 1:1 I find, which I really like. Though I still personally, don't feel very motivated to post art LOL on here idk why...
December 4, 2025 at 11:21 AM
They're literally from the same page of drawings so it's more than understandable lol - I totally didn't mean it like that 😅<3 !

Yeah, that's so true. I miss the smaller communities and the ability to just interact with folks without wondering if the algorithm will run with it for better or worse.
December 4, 2025 at 11:21 AM
lol is it the little squatting, gremlin-looking Caine ??? 😂 😂 😂
December 4, 2025 at 10:51 AM
This is so relatable! I also really enjoy delving into a character's personality, figuring out what makes them tick and pushing them to see how they might act in certain situations.

Darker takes can be fun but like you said, it's also massively enjoyable to draw them happy & doing simple things :"D
December 4, 2025 at 10:50 AM
OH MY GOSH, he's so cute ;alsdkjasld;fkjsd
🥹😭😭
December 4, 2025 at 8:33 AM
Lol, I haven't posted these exact guys to twitter yet, but I also have been lazy and haven't posted the stuff I posted there... here...

How do people handle multiple socials D:'
December 4, 2025 at 8:30 AM
haha was it this one? ;P
December 4, 2025 at 8:28 AM
Aww no! Your comments are always so thoughtful and kind ; o ;
Reading what you comment always picks up my spirits <3
> u <
December 4, 2025 at 8:24 AM
lol oh damn I had no idea haha, happy to deliver though!
December 4, 2025 at 8:22 AM
I rarely have enough energy to post on Bluesky outside of just random thoughts. But here's some food for tonight lol.
I'm still very amused by these two drawings, even if they make me uncomfortable LOL.
