I’ve been in love with @hicorook ’s song “if I were a fish” since I heard it a few weeks ago and I’ve been chipping away at this since then. Geedey and Dia are definitely each other’s fish, so it just seemed fitting to animate them this way. But I’m not going any further than this, it took forever to make this much. 😆
Also, please go listen to “if I were a fish” and sub to corook’s channel!! It’s such a heartwarming song and the rest of their music is awesome too!
You can also subscribe to my channel where I put up stuff like this on a regular basis. I’m trying to work my way up to 1000 subscribers, and I’m about to hit 150!
Check out some of the process of this page in the making! You can get early looks at content like this when you join the Chio Club! Members got to see this clip months ahead of now.
Things have been a bit rough with my hands being unreliable for the past few months, and we’ve got bills and a cat vet appointment coming up, so it seems like as good a time as any to put our comics on sale for the next week! You get cheap comics, we get to survive a little bit, so everyone wins!
All of our comics (and CSP brush pack!) downloads are automatically 50% off in our itch.io shop. You can also download everything as a giant bundle for just $15! That’s a lot of comics!
Hey Chio Crew! We’re nearly halfway through 2023 already! How?! I guess it goes faster when you’re struggling to be able to update your own webcomic, but that’s changing soon!
What’s New?
Follower starts again this week! It’s been a long hiatus with my ongoing health issues, but I’m going to do my best to keep on schedule! I can’t promise that I won’t occasionally have to take breaks now and again, but I’m at least hopeful I’ll be able to maintain a small buffer.
If you’ve ever wanted to be part of Follower, like, so much that you’re in the comic – now’s your chance! Our Create a Chio project is open once again for takers on both Patreon and via Ko-Fi commissions. For $50, I’ll work with you to design your very own Chio character. You’ll get a custom character sheet with color references and information. This character will appear on at least one page of the comic as a side character. I’ve also added an extra upgrade option that will put your custom character on 3 pages of the comic, with the potential for a line of dialogue, too. Since I’m working on pages right now that feature a bunch of background Chios, the sooner you commission me, the sooner your character will appear in the comic!
What’s Next?
April had no takers for the Chio Club Sticker Tier, so I’ll be leaving it up with the same design for May. If it stays this way, I will probably end it and move on to other ideas. That said, if you’re interested, please check out our Patreon and Ko-Fi pages to join!
I’m still dealing with health issues and my schedule is pretty much a wreck week to week, so I haven’t been able to make a solid streaming schedule yet. I’d like to get back to streaming work on book pages, since I was making some decent progress there. As usual, follow me on Twitch to get updates on that.

Thank you (yet again) for sticking with us despite this long comic hiatus! Here’s to more new pages!
This video was meant to go up as a small celebration of getting to 100 subscribers on YouTube! 🎉 It took a little longer than I planned to record and edit it, but here it is.
So, this is a story about a weird thing that happened a long time ago at a job I have thankfully left far behind. I hope it makes you laugh, because it makes me laugh.
