Entry for *Tangent-Valley 's "Draw Felix" contest. The comic the characters are from is only just getting started, but I already like Felix, because he/she's one of very few cat-girls that actually act like cats instead of kittens. Does Felix act aloof and above-it-all when confronted by people being strange? Even if Felix's own circumstances are no less bizarre? You bet she does. There is no more cat-like behavior than vainly and resentfully trying to maintain one's dignity (especially after an embarassment) - so here's some more of it!

It took me way too long to actually get this done; the problem with having a month in which to do something is that somehow that turns into a week or a few days while I'm not looking :/ I went with Flash partly because it's fast and I'm less likely to get distracted by nitty-gritty raster-drawing stuff, but also because I've been missing the look of my older drawn-in-Flash works...this is also the first piece I sketched on paper in a long time...

For laughing so much at Felix's antics, Thomas looks pretty goony herself. I didn't plan that, but it seems very appropriate and I like it.
