Confessions of a Smalltown Priest

How to give Father Eugene an aneurysm, now in one convenient twunky package!

Another comic that I made accidentally, it wasn't in the planned comics list but as usual an idea got away from me!
A mixture of cute/silly and. That's Not Great Actually Cliff.

I have been wanting to show Cliffs concerning attitude to...his life. He's often doing things like this, without any thought or care for consequences. Part of it is undiagnosed ADHD, part of it is attention seeking (prob related to the adhd tho), part of it is a response to trauma*, tbh he doesn't expect to live long and doesn't know what he's doing with his life (thinking about it seriously scares the shit out of him). Doing shit like this makes him feel alive and in control of his own fate for a moment.
I think him pursuing a priest was initially along this same risk taking behaviour, it'll be fun, it's exciting, something to make life interesting when he can't drink or fuck strangers. Anyway that backfired. I think Eugene is a good anchor for him! Eugene is...the opposite of a risk taker, the poor man lives in fear most of the time.

Father Eugene finds his quiet, closeted life thrown off balance when troublemaker Cliff starts attending church, with questionable motives. Eugene wants to bring the lost sheep back into the fold, even if he risks losing himself to temptation. But could the reward be worth the cost?
