sorcyressToday's character is a little bit of a cop-out, in that I've written about her before and fairly recently. But I don't care --I continue to have a lot of love in me for Maxine Tabitha Fae Hellenberger. And not just for her crazy bits.
Max *exemplifies* vivacity. She is not a quiet person, in any way, not with an aura that's yellow and turquoise spots. She makes friends quickly, falls in love expansively, and is rarely in the same position from panel to panel.
(This is actually a small detail that I *love* Tailsteak includes. I'm especially fond of any sequence where she's sitting on the couch and talking with other characters, because inevitably her fidgeting will result in her being upside down at some point. As someone who perches-climbs-inverts on the regular, I recognize this plenty.)
True, I'm not vegan but I understand her reasoning and her incredible commitment to consensual hedonism for all. I'm not an animal caretaker, but then again, that's *her* passion. I think she could find familiarity in the way I throw myself into dance and the organization thereof. And I am poly, and I am set up in my poly in such a way that I can do a lot of flirting with strangers, because strangers are awesome and people are awesome and how is there so much attractive in the world?
And yes, we're both crazy. I'm only on one medication (although I suppose it should maybe be more, but I'm still pretending I don't potentially have Depression), and I've never tried to drown myself when I've not had access to it, but it certainly makes me lose track of myself to be unmedicated. (This last month has been a slow sliding testament to that. I'm working on it.)
Leftover Soup ends in 71 strips. That's 27 more weeks, and then on to the next project for Tailsteak. I like that he does this, I like that he works to create cohesive and finishing narratives. But it doesn't mean I'm not going to miss getting to check in with Max once she's gone.

MOOP!
