Not everyone will approve of you as you go along your own gender journey. You'll change and grow in many ways they may disapprove of. But it's not your job to please them.

It's about time that I brighten things up, yeah? Oh! Maybe some blurb action too? Hello! I'm Larissa Robin Frost. Long time reader here on Big Closet. I've always wanted to post and tell my stories here. But never had the confidence to. But here I've been for the past few months. Honestly? Y'all are my biggest audience. It's wonderful to see my stories being loved and enjoyed. I'm a voice actress, and indie animation producer -- and a bunch of other stuff, I do a bit of everything. I've always loved writing and reading transy comics and stories. Getting to make and produce stuff like Rain: The Animated Series is a dream come true for me. And making comics like this, and a future one I hope to post is also a really big dream for me. I hope to give this site a lot of my love through my art and writing, and give it plenty of genderfuck adventure too. ♥

Panel 1:

"Y'know, I can't believe I've been doing this comic for two whole months. But I haven't really introduced myself yet, have I?"

Panel 2:

"Well, I guess I'd better go ahead and do that, eh?"

Panel 3:

"Well, then. Allow me to illuminate you!"

Panel 4:

"My name is Robin. And it's very nice to finally introduce myself to all of you."

So, funny story. I first learned about transition through a doc about detransitioners. There I was at the age of 12, in the middle of the night watching TV in my room, and the news started this special on the three people. I was, for lack of a better word, enthralled. Of course I'd seen it in cartoons and movies, but I didn't think that you could ACTUALLY become a girl. It was very eye-opening to me, and it became an obsession throughout my young teens. It was about at this point I started to understand what being trans even was, and started looking up all sorts of things about transition and found my way to stories about boys turning into girls and the like. It was certainly an eventful time for lil' me, and the start of a very long journey. Even found myself here on Big Closet to read a lot of crossdress and TG fiction; so thank you BC for helping me find myself that early in my gender journey~ ♥

Captions:

Panel 1:

TV: "Tonight on LMNOP News: We explore the lives of three different men. Who each became women and went back. -- "So here you are having gotten breast implants after being on hormones, working your way through reassignment surgery --""

Lari: "Wait... You can do that? Whoa... You can change your body THAT MUCH?"

Panel 2:

TV: ""And after a while, I realized that I was still fairly unhappy. I realized that being a woman wasn't for me." -- "And he went back to living as a gay man. Hoping that maybe he could find someone who wouldn't mind that he's still physically female downstairs.""

Lari: "But why would you go back to being a boy? You were so pretty... I wish I could be that pretty..."

Panel 3:

TV: ""There really was no going back at that point. These surgeries are permanent. Bit it's what I wanted at the time, even it's it's hard sometimes now. I just hope I can maybe find the right guy who can look past it." -- "There are times that I miss being 'her,' but I don't think it'd be worth it to risk losing my friends and family over."

Lari: "I'd be so happy if i could have all of that and get to be a girl! I'd never go back!"

So, here we are. I am less than a month out from my bottom surgery consult all the way in Baltimore. It's quite the trip, and it's already taxed me a great deal. After my consult, I'm going to know for certain what all pre-operative things I'm going to have to do, such as weight management and hair removal. Up until now, I've done a lot of my transition out of pocket. I paid for things like hormones and such, up until last year when I opened up my Transition Fund to help afford travel expenses and surgeries from friends, and partners. Who I've been nothing but grateful for as they've helped me get all the letters and prerequisites I've needed to even get a GRS consult.

Unfortunately, I've ended up burning through the entirety of my Transition Fund so that I could make the trip all the way from Texas to Maryland for this consult. Meaning I'm going to have to start rebuilding my fund so I can afford any future procedures, most importantly bottom surgery. I'm going to put in a lot of hard work over the next few months in the hopes I can better build it back up. In addition to that, I'd like to extend out a hand and ask for help. But I don't intend to just simply ask for money from the internet at broad anymore. I'd like to instead start offering my voice and art skills. While I haven't exactly worked out pricing as of this post, I am looking into my options and what seems fair based on my skill. I will post a more in depth sheet with ranges, and what I am and am not okay with drawing, voicing, etc.

In addition to this, I do stream various games and myself drawing art to Twitch, and post irregularly on YouTube. Any Twitch donations made during streams over the foreseeable future will be going to my tranisition fund. However, any twitch subs will continue to go towards supporting my day-to-day living and my collaborative animation and writing projects, such as Rain: The Animated Series and My Darling Honey.

You can go ahead and follow these endeavors, and give a little support here:
• Rain: The Animated Series
• My Darling Honey
== Twitter
== Ao3
== Big Closet
• Twitch
• Voiceover Channel

You may also notice that I've put in a bit about the other comics I'm currently writing and intend to post as well; Moonlight's Shadow, and normal. These are two comics dyadically set in the same world that follow two different people experiencing the world in different ways; Fayth Bennet, a young trans woman who's inducted into the ranks of the Seraph, Guardians of the Between in Moonlight's Shadow. And Cole Wynter, a college kid who's first day ends with them being cursed to slowly transform into a woman. They're both stories I hope to explore gender, identity, trauma and other elements with. Also as a way to reconnect with my past having enjoyed transformation stuff in the past, but give it a fun transy twist.

I look forward to sharing these storires, and many many more. And if you wanted to just help at all with my transition fund, you can find the link to the GoFundMe below.

A little bit after I watched that documentary about detransitioners, I started to really notice more and more things about trans people in media. Specifically of an intersex trans woman telling her story. I was, again, fairly enthralled. My mom took great note at this. Of course about this time I was the exact same size as her, well, minus the breasts. So I fit in a majority of her clothes. I marveled just how much I looked like a girl when I dressed as one. Not that I didn't mind stuffing bras, but I did notice I had a little bit of growth back then. Enough that other people would comment or unfortunately bully me for it. After seeing the news story about the aforementioned intersex trans woman, I was curious if I was intersex at all too. It seemed like I was developing as a woman before male puberty came in and spoiled all my fun. Eventually I did figure everything out, after a bit of time and struggle.

Captions:

Panel 1:

TV: "Then it all just kind of made sense, figuring out I was intersex. Why I was always so girly, and why I preferred to spend time with my sisters."

Panel 2:

Lari: She really is pretty. Hard to believe she was ever a boy.

Mom: I guess so.

Lari: How would you figure out something like that?

Mom: Some people just are happier like that.

Lari: Oh...

Mom: You're really interested in this? Something you want to tell me? You know I'll love you no matter what.

Lari: What? N-no? It's just interesting is all, Mom.

Panel 3:

TV: "Has your son taken this ADHD medication and developed FEMALE BREASTS!? You may be entitled to a settlement affecting hundreds of parents."

Lari: Oh...

I've been finding myself sick quite often these past few weeks. As a result the amount of fever dreams have spiked to an all-time high. From just strange nightmares, to being a super-powerful gender altering goddess. I can't complain, as it's given me a whole new comic to chew on. And gotten me to appreciate doing transformation stuff again. Something I honestly wasn't sure I missed since stopping a long time ago after some bad experiences with a vulpine I do not want to mention too much about.

But honestly, wouldn't it just be fun to be able to alter and change people's bodies on a whim? I'd have a blast! I'd help so many of my trans siblings! Good times for all, except the weird men who cross me.

Captions

Panel 1:

"When I'm sick, I find it hard to sleep. And when I do my dreams are filled with extremely vivid hallucination-like dreams. They tend to focus on things that I'm watching or playing at the time. And lately?... I've been playing a whole lot of Baldur's Gate 3.

Panel 3:

"Unsure if the world would be ready for something like that, however...."

TV:
"Entire Planet Transed? Reports of Worldwide Gender Alteration..."

I thought the names were clever. "Between Roles" being stories from my life and bits that happen between voice, relationship, and personal roles, and "Between Rolls" being well, what happens between the dice rolls in a fantasy Dungeons & Dragons setting based on Baldur's Gate 3. Love that kind of synergy.

Wonder how Castina and me would actually get along? What, with her being a gender goddess n' all. I do feel like if I did meet a time-dimensionally displaced duplicate of myself who could change people's bodies and such on a whim, we'd get on very well. Especially if we could have some fun and help people get the bodies they want in the process!~

Been having some health issues lately, I am my mother's daughter and turns out I've ended up with her anemia. This was only after I had fourteen vials of blood taken all at once. Been managing it okay, a multivit goes a long way. Hopefully things will start to improve, seeing as I've had quite a lot of trouble getting out and about with the chronic fatigue related to the anemia.

I've recently had a very exciting consult for bottom surgery! I am very much looking forward to the future, given well, everything. I've recently opened up commissions too, to hopefully be able to save up a fair bit of money and have said surgery. That being said, I had a lovely trip, and Maryland is a beautiful state. It was also one of the most stressful and terrifying weekends of my life; I had to travel alone, and I had a lot of flight issues that resulted in me being awake almost 50 hours. I finally was able to decompress and shower, when....

Don't get me wrong, I love the appeal. Big, tall, muscular women slay me. But I don't know -- I think being all-purpose for a partner would be *perfect* and being a succubus would make that a 10/10 in my book.

"Horns and wings are still part of the plan, though. ♥"

So, been having the chance to get to know and interact with a lot of other comic creators lately. It's been an absolute blast to feel so connected with each other -- Forming a very wonderful little community. But also, just because you can draw super fast doesn't mean you need to draw until your arms fall off. I WILL FIND YOU, SOPHIE. YOU WILL REST.

Gem: "But, but... I don't need to be here! Why can't I just throw silly art and compliments at people from a safe distance and hope they'll approach me instead? It has kinda worked before! ....Maybe."

My friend, Koala Phoenix, does struggle sometimes, and that's okay, because Tresenella, is there to help her. I just wish I knew why Gem and Platypus_Pro, are glaring at me so hard for. Probably nothing.

fr though, Christi. We adore you, we're not going anywhere. just uh.. Hope the headache after that fall wasn't too much.

Lari: What?

Blew my girlfriend, Tresenella's mind by informing her there were, in fact, THREE sonic cartoons in the 90s with the same guy voicing three different versions of the same guy. Felt like drawing this for funsies.

So I've taken a break over the holidays like I usually like to, but I asked a lot of my friends and peers who also make transy webcomics to go ahead and help me out with a Christmas thing; I know it's chronically late. But it's about the spirit of things, yeah? Here's everyone who's helped out!
Tresenella, author of TransLucid
Platypus Pro, author of Prettiest Platypus
KoalaPheonix, author of TransIncindental
Ashe Celeste, author of Wake Up and Start!

I hope to return next week with some more of my usual content. But I hope you get to enjoy these guys too. They've got really good comics that I also help and voice stuff with on occasion. They're awesome people and I really hope you give them a follow!

When two people's inner representations of chaos meet, fun is bound to happen.

This is the first I'm posting of my alter, Valerie, too. She's really excited to meet everyone. She's especially been enjoying company with Tresenella's own Dreamspace friend, Tress!

Of course, as expected, the first thing they do is cook up a little bit of chaos.

This is the sort of stuff that happens in the thinkspace. Also, like. Hi! I'm plural. I was diagnosed at a very young age with OSDD and for the most part I've kept it fairly low-key. But with how many friends and fellow artists of mine are being public about their own plurality I figure I may as well be too.
Meet Valerie, and Aubrey. Two of my alters kicking around in my head. Cynthia isn't here but I assume she'd be having a gas if she was. We make up a median system of about four, maybe five. Haven't fully figured that out yet. We've had a lot of years and practice in figuring each other out and working together to make up one multifaceted whole. I'm hoping in time you'll all be able to meet my other alters best I can represent each of us in comics.
