Always try to talk through a situation before escalating it. Just remember that there isn't always a peaceful solution to everything.

Keep your emotions in check, unless your goal is to do something you'll later regret.

Don't worry too much about what others think of you.

Acting rashly won't solve anything, and may do more harm than good to those around you.

All children must one day leave the nest. But that doesn't make it any easier for the parents.

Things are not always as they would first appear.

Just because someone appears to have everything under control on the outside doesn't mean they're okay inside. It's important to talk things out with those whom you trust.

Volume 11 - Chapter 1 - Human Dinky

Dinky sitting on Arc's couch as he rummages in the attic looking for some clothes that will fit her. She's still rather nervous on what he'll say when he comes down, as she specifically disobeyed her mother when she followed Arc through the portal. Drawn by my daughter on her new drawing tablet.

Planning ahead and working together with others can make a monumental task manageable.
