23.27 - 23.28
Added 2025-02-15 15:00:08 +0000 UTCI hope you guys don't get the impression that I dislike discourse in the comments. I love reading about everyone's opinions and thoughts! However when I saw that some of you seemed to get the impression that Sooch was naive/clueless about sex, rather than a guy whose views of sex (and related vocabulary) are shaped by hetero cultural norms, I wanted to step in and clear that up. I was v overstimulated last week and went on quite the rant 😂 Thank you for saying such nice things last week.
*Thank you for pointing out the typo, it's fixed now 🫣

2025-02-18 17:36:13 +0000 UTCOk so no one saw that he picked sooch up that hug and swing him. 😆
Abigail

Stacie Melendez

Lora
2025-02-17 04:27:11 +0000 UTCLol, I hadn't noticed those. Yeah he definitely is.
Cynthia Smith (Dex)
2025-02-16 20:30:22 +0000 UTCI THOUGHT SO TOO NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT BUT THERE'S MOTION LINES NEAR HIS FEET
Magz
2025-02-16 20:19:59 +0000 UTCOkay but do you see the motion lines near Sooch's feet? I'm pretty sure he's full-on DANGLING
Magz
2025-02-16 20:19:18 +0000 UTCYOINK get TF back here bitch I love you too 😂
Daisy
2025-02-16 14:50:49 +0000 UTC🥰🥰🥰
Julie
2025-02-16 13:13:06 +0000 UTCNot a peep from Sooch about “ baby” I think he loves it now. Oof, these two. ☺️ and I don’t know that Howie even realizes Sooch isn’t touching the floor on page two lol.
Morgen Schuler
2025-02-16 09:03:54 +0000 UTCOmg it’s getting sooo cute, not that it wasn’t before but the story is getting sooo much better 🥰🥰
Fluttersky29
2025-02-16 07:27:42 +0000 UTCYeah Howie it's going to freak out... And also I really want them to start telling other people so that we can see how they act in front of their friends haha.
VANNA
2025-02-16 07:00:28 +0000 UTC(I also freak out every time he says it bc it’s so sweet and also I cannot wait until Sooch says it back 🥰)
Manda
2025-02-16 06:52:06 +0000 UTCYou're totally right haha. 🤣✌️.
VANNA
2025-02-16 06:38:23 +0000 UTCHowie has said I love you a few times but Sooch still hasn’t! I think Howie has been pretty up front about his feelings since he said “I’m pretty sure I’m in love with you” before they even tried anything
Manda
2025-02-16 06:35:17 +0000 UTCThis stuff is the real fluff the fluff that makes you kick your feet in the air going eeeeee!
Madeline
2025-02-16 03:42:41 +0000 UTCwell of course howie knew that sooch loves him but expressing yourself on a casual level and saying the three worded sentence like that is in a step of its own imo
silvercrown429
2025-02-16 03:21:47 +0000 UTCNormally gushy romance gives me the eye rolls but damnit if they aren’t the sweetest, now I just have the warm fuzzies. ☺️
Morgen Schuler
2025-02-16 02:29:42 +0000 UTCSooch is so in love he literally doesn’t know wtf to do with himself, & I think that’s hilarious 😅😅😅😅
Dani Z
2025-02-16 00:16:54 +0000 UTCi love how Howie says i love you all the time. Lately every time Howie says it Sgooch looks like he wants to say it back or is debating on whether he should say it back. Sooch always looks so in thought after Howie says he loves him and I hope that means he’s thinking about maybe saying it back soon
irk idrk
2025-02-15 23:05:35 +0000 UTCI love when Howie just MELTS like that
Gracie Bou
2025-02-15 22:05:54 +0000 UTCMelting 🫠 at all the love
HannaLuLu
2025-02-15 22:00:27 +0000 UTCThere's something in the way Howie looks at Sooch after he gave him the breakfast he did for him that is so sweet and moving at the same time 🥺
emma
2025-02-15 20:21:37 +0000 UTCScreaminggghh they’re SO SMITTEN
Luna Lena
2025-02-15 20:16:04 +0000 UTCI don't think we'll ever see a page without one of them blushing from the other one's adorableness 😁
Mm-ft
2025-02-15 20:13:42 +0000 UTCI really like the way you show Sooch‘s growing love and amazement for Howie. His subtle looks and how he always tries to touch him, I personally can really relate to this and it makes me think of my own relationship. Just wanted to share this
Nad1n0
2025-02-15 20:07:22 +0000 UTCI think the drive by “I love yous” are purposeful on Howie’s part and encompass many reasons: he wants Sooch to always hear it from him so he doesn’t have to wonder; he wants it be normalized language between them; he doesn’t want Sooch to feel pressured to say it before he’s ready; he’s a tiny bit afraid of actually seeing any tiny hesitation in Sooch’s response and breaking his own heart by accident EVEN THOUGH HE KNOWS Sooch cares for him deeply. Anyway I dig it. At some point Howie’s gonna attempt to run away post ILY declaration and Sooch is gonna YOINK him back and declare he loves him too and Howie will combust. It will be glorious.
Nee
2025-02-15 19:36:54 +0000 UTCExactly.
Cynthia Smith (Dex)
2025-02-15 19:35:50 +0000 UTCI hope so, or Howie might lose his job.
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:25:38 +0000 UTCAll very plausible. I though: dude is just late for work AGAIN and he knows it.
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:25:13 +0000 UTCHowie being notorious for absconding after saying "I love you"
Littl3Gr3mlin
2025-02-15 19:22:24 +0000 UTCTrue love is accepting the cabbage your boyfie hands you and thanking them for the awesome lunch. Then buying a bread roll on the way to work.
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:22:21 +0000 UTC@Reba so sweet!
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:21:21 +0000 UTCYou capture domesticity SO well!! So many comics (and books!) have such a tough time writing an established relationship, but you make it feel so real. Thank you Bittie!
Insaner
2025-02-15 19:20:35 +0000 UTCRight?! I expect nothing good but hope for it. I feel like Liam is very misunderstood and I think he is in love with Howie and doesn't know in....but the DRAMA!!!
AJ
2025-02-15 19:20:27 +0000 UTCSooch basically did, when they were falling asleep and he said: "I think I realized I was falling in love when..."
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:19:19 +0000 UTCJust across the street - dramaaaaa! Maybe Liam will confront Sooch on his way to his therapy appointment.
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:18:12 +0000 UTCHowie being shocked every time he’s reminded of just how much sooch likes him back is so cute hahaha
purplepanda
2025-02-15 19:17:07 +0000 UTCA very living, breathing, beautiful person who is only human and is more than allowed to go on rants or other things that could be seen as less-than-perfect because no one is perfect and no one needs to be. Plus we stan rants. And even like them.
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:16:41 +0000 UTCAwesome! I hadn't noticed either the 'rock' or the tippy toes. Thanks for helping me see more!
Umbrathor
2025-02-15 19:14:46 +0000 UTCLOL me every chapter 😅
Insaner
2025-02-15 19:14:41 +0000 UTCOh for sure - I'm sure Howie doesn't want to "make Sooch feel like he has to say it back" so I def think it's gonna BLOW HIS LIL HOWIE MIND when Sooch actually gets the chance to say it to him ❤️
Insaner
2025-02-15 19:13:52 +0000 UTCHe keeps saying I love you then running away UUUUGH 😫
Samuel Paxton
2025-02-15 19:11:57 +0000 UTCAt first I thought "rock" was describing Howies muscular arms and i was like 👍👍 nice. Then I saw the sway lines and Sooch on his tippy toes, and now I'm cackling! So cute!
GR
2025-02-15 19:01:48 +0000 UTC~sighs~ they are so adorable. I feel that tippy toe hug & kiss. Author: I don't mind the little rants. I love little rant or comment; it provides unique perspective/opinions, plus it reminds me on my very forgetful or disconnected days that a very living, breathing, beautiful person is behind the wonderful stories I am reading.
Cynthia Smith (Dex)
2025-02-15 18:55:00 +0000 UTCI love view Sooch is anxious and unsure about things but still very clearly loves Howie and wants things to be good and move forward I think it's very realistic and I love them
underwraps
2025-02-15 18:42:57 +0000 UTCI think that’s him on tip toes cause Howie’s arms would need to be lower
Elliott Christian

kozmicdonut
2025-02-15 17:12:03 +0000 UTCI love the lost in the moment Sooch gets. I feel like he wants to tell Howie he loves him but can't find the words. I love that he tries to do small things instead. ....however....something is bothering me and causing me worry in all this bliss. Something nagging at me that I can't and don't want to forget in all of this. One word....Liam.....
AJ
2025-02-15 17:02:53 +0000 UTCI’m curious about the moment when sooch will finally get the stage to say I love you back it’s like howie rush’s out before he can get the chance
silvercrown429
2025-02-15 16:55:51 +0000 UTCThe way Howie tucked his breakfast into his bicep 💪🏼 so he could hold Sooch's face with both hands 🥰
Love
2025-02-15 16:44:28 +0000 UTCI love how Howie treats Sooch and expresses his love beyond just words. 😍😍😍 If only that were more common.

K Méndez
2025-02-15 16:40:59 +0000 UTCMy boyfriend did the exact same thing in the beginning of our relationship. When howie first says it into sooch’s shoulder and scurries off, I showed it to my boyfriend and laughed so hard 😆 this went on for weeks until he finally gave me eye contact and we slowed the moment down so I could say it back ☺️ I feel howie and sooch will get there soon!!! 🤗🤞🏻🤞🏻

Milly
2025-02-15 16:31:44 +0000 UTC"I LOVE YOU BYE" 😭😭😭😭😭 makes me think of "see you in chemistry!!!!"
Chey
2025-02-15 16:27:21 +0000 UTCI really don't remember them saying I Love You to each other so I freak out a little but reading the comments maybe they already did haha I'm gonna have to go and read the whole thing again haha. And Sooch on his tiptoes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🤭🤭

Devon
2025-02-15 15:55:37 +0000 UTCIf Howie would just wait a damn minute after saying ILY, instead of rushing out the door, Sooch would say it back!! Like, give the man a chance!! Also, this domesticity suits them!
Katiebee72
2025-02-15 15:53:43 +0000 UTCI was like “that’s a big ass rice ball” 🤣

katie
2025-02-15 15:48:44 +0000 UTCIs this the first time Howie says love?!?!?!?! 🥹
Teddy Chanel
2025-02-15 15:46:33 +0000 UTCI think he's also trying to not pressure him, probably mixed with some fear he won't say it. But man I feel bad for Sooch, like at least slow down enough for him to get a word out.
Ricki
2025-02-15 15:39:41 +0000 UTCOops didn't mean to send that as a reply.. but I was liking the minimalness.
Talu
2025-02-15 15:36:25 +0000 UTCI love the feelings you can get with no words. I spend as much time reading these 2 page updates as I do on 20pg updates of the official stories. I love the others but I scroll fast. These, I like stare at every single detail that I can.
Talu
2025-02-15 15:35:50 +0000 UTCI get the feeling Sooch has been trying to say it back, but Howie is always out the door before he can say it.

2025-02-15 15:23:00 +0000 UTCThe way Howie rocks Sooch side to side in a hug got me screaming 😭❤️ I love them

Ino
2025-02-15 15:10:48 +0000 UTCLove the update! I think there might be a typo on the third to last panel? “Let me know for your appointment goes” should that be how your appointment goes?
Lauren
2025-02-15 15:10:40 +0000 UTCI think it's because Howie feels really shy about 🤭
Ino
2025-02-15 15:10:26 +0000 UTCIt's getting harder and harder not to say it back, huh Sooch
Pheobe Jackson
2025-02-15 15:09:48 +0000 UTCSooch on tiptoe 😭😭 Making him breakfast is such a small gesture, but it actually means so much. It’s also so domestic I could scream. 🥰 (Btw I never got the impression that you disliked the discussion in the comments at all. I think part of why being a patreon member is great is that we get to hear from you directly about the characters motivations/thoughts as well as discussing it among ourselves.)
Amanda
2025-02-15 15:09:12 +0000 UTCThe ways that breakfast made Howie melt like the cheese on his egg sandwich 😆 Well, we can be sure of Sooch’s love language. Acts of service speak louder than the words he struggles to say.
