i’ll forever be embarrassed about the time i went to a halloween event at my university where costumes were encouraged and i was literally the only person who dressed up 😭
I had to make some children’s get well soon cards for Spidey in Brand New Day.
When I was a kid, I used to make my own Spider-Man comics and thankfully I still have them! So I decided to scan in a few of my old drawings to use for the cards.
A nice full circle moment for me :)
This issue was resolved in 2020.
"You can come if you want" is passive, non-commital, no skin in the game, no yearning, shifts the vulnerability/burden of "wanting"
"I want you to come" is earnest, bears the vulnerability of "wanting", and actively expresses a desire.
