The catharsis in drawing this is very healing after drawing so much pain and suffering for these characters. Hydrangeas (gratitude for being understood) and Mallow (healing, comfort, protection, love) flowers in the background.
* NOTE: Love Not Found updates will resume with a new page on Tuesday, January 6th!

Makes you think how flowers should be a language for all the different significations they can interpret. This is a great climatic cliffhanger to pause the comic at before the holidays, whichever ones you celebrate. Also well-timed in sync with the real world calendar. 😃 Been enjoying the story, can’t wait to see the epilogue next year!

The Victorians had a flower language. I be too sleepy to ask my dear friend Professor Google for an explanation of it. Let me finish my my second cup of wide awake juice and I’ll see if Ican ask him. I’ll post on tomorrow’s episode.

I actually read a romance called The Language of Flowers, and it had a companion book on the Victorian significances!

There are some sources of flower meanings on an unofficial wiki about the comic https://lovenotfound-fans.fandom.com/wiki/Flora#Flower_meanings
I think some links are now broken. Hanakotoba (flower words) and “the language of flowers” are two labels for lexicons. There are more elaborate tables of correspondences about plants.
That wiki is meant to be edited by readers.

YESSSSS I was so hoping this moment would happen 😭🤍 I’m so glad her dad is open to the physical contact
Also they way they both nervously rub their hands, the subtle details that show their similarities. Just beautiful.

.I wonder if it is like self-hugging, like Abeille does elsewhere when she meets with her parents. That might mean she and Mallow both have an affinity for touch.
ValkeaKani
Ohhh true!! I wonder if that’s part of why they rub their hands together, maybe because they subconsciously want to reach out to someone?

I’m not crying. We’re all crying.
No, but all joking aside, this page and its meaning is beautiful in so many ways. I don’t know where the characters or the story are going, but the journey has been beautiful to witness.
Fun fact: I’m psyched the new page will be Jan 6th. That’s día de Reyes (or Three Kings day in English) where I’m from. So it’s a great gift for that holiday.

Happy last day of Christmas everyone! It has 12 days you know. They even wrote a song about it.

Small children still get touched in this society, and this is a nice throwback for Mallow to those times he shared with tiny Abeille. It’s fitting as he truly acknowledges her adult independence with a hug. (Not likely that he’ll pass on the gift of touch to anybody in Pasque, but we can hope.)

aww, this is beautiful <3

Screaming, crying!! OMGGGGG! This is so heartwarming, and so deserved for both of them!! I lost my dad a few years ago, and I miss giving him hugs and chatting with him, so this page got me in the feels in such a beautiful way. Good dads are always good to see in media!
Happy holidays, see you in January!!

YES! My wish!

Take care, Mallow. Be sure to visit some time! (Preferably by yourself?)

Oh, as beautiful as this moment is, I can absolutely see Amy crashing back through the door with “…and another thing”, and then crashing out over seeing them hugging. Probably try to throw in a “look what your degenerate daughter has made you do, how could you!”.

Amaryllis can keep behaving like a nasty brat to everyone all she wants, thinking that becoming this deviously-charming two-faced bully onto them has truly gotten her anything good for it. Just like her surviving family and several others has now done, they’ll eventually see her true crappy colours and distances themselves from her toxicity. She won’t ever truly win and be ever bitter over what she won’t ever see in herself or others.
