To be like you

Initial description:
"Weee, a multipaneled comic after like... what, a joke one www.deviantart.com/icam2k/art/… from 2020? There's a reason for that, but at least there's also the satisfaction to have one in. This is more of a minor wholesome dose than what I can provide.
Is it safe for me to refer to this inkling girl a Veronika though? Is it also wrong to think of her as Neo Agent 3, at least in my eyes? That's how she appears to be known for, right? Eh, I don't know, most of them are custom playable characters anyways.
Not sure if I'm satisfied with how it turned out though. I had fun making the backgrounds, but there are some that look half baked. There also have been instances with the pixels often getting through the lineart making the characters pop out. A long running occurrence actually, not just this one.
To tell the truth though, I lost both my mental and creative fortitude to make anything recently. It even took me longer to finish this short comic than I initially thought. I think I can safely say that the issue is gone now, but you never know. Right now, all I can do is see what else I can post. I can at least admit that I can't keep promises. Things are bound to get in my way even when everything is settled.
One thing is for certain though, I hope that you all at least have a good day here. That's more than I can appreciate.
For now, enjoy.
Edit: apparently, dA couldn't handle this comics enormous height that it cropped to one shot for preview, so I had to modify it. Not sure if this is the better way, it's clearly meant to start from up to down and it still stands even here.
To avoid confusion, up-down for first slide until you get to the the black sequence (I even marked with page numbers to help out). Then start back up to the next panel slide and proceed down again. I can still post the original as an alternative in scraps, but again, I'm particularly fond of that.
Give out some comments here if you want to talk about it or even fave it."

Thank goodness that there are still websites that can handle the strip format for artworks like this. Makes this at least viewable enough.
