[ID: Four panel comic with crudely drawn stick people.
Panel 1: A person wearing an indigo hat and a person with a green body, pink jacket and half red, half blue pointy anime glasses are talking.
Anime Glasses: “See, what you have to learn eventually, which I’m teaching you now, is you can’t rely on external validation.
People are going to ask you to compromise your existence with their worldviews, and you’re going to tell them no.
That’ll be coming both from grayscales and other chromatics, by the way.
Indigo: Huh.
Panel 2: A violet person with a rectangular build enters from the side.
Violet: "Hang on, weren’t you pink before?”
Anime Glasses: “Visually, sure.”
Violet: “And now you’re green?”
Anime Glasses: “Yeah. Got bored. Changed it up.”
Violet: “You can’t just do that.”
Anime Glasses: “Nah. You can’t. Skill issue.”
Panel 3: A grayscale person enters to back up Violet.
Grayscale: “See, this is what we’ve been saying all along. Where is the limit? When will the madness end??”
Violet: “Wait don’t back me up on this-”
Grayscale, interupting: “You’ll be pressuring them into turning themselves blue! You’re making this serious decision seem trivial, but it’s not! Who’s going to tell them to wait and think things through?”
Anime glasses, quietly towards indigo: “Here’s your chance. Tell them.”
Panel 4: Zoom in on Indigo, with anime glasses in the background tilting their glasses up so the light glares off them.
Indigo: “Indigo. Not fucking blue.
Everyone’s been telling me to wait with this shit for twenty fucking years.
How about mind your own business and don’t interrupt the first person who’s actually fucking helping me.”
