I actually see a few similarities between the prospit dreams and derse and how the kids deal with them, specifically john and dave! We never really see johns actual eyes in this comic, which matches the negative space around him and just a general absence, which almost matches daves trademark sunglasses and how he uses them to mask feeling. They also both do that “hand on neck while facing away from camera” angle, which i find to be an interesting parallel.

Interesting to see the difference between the Derse and Prospit kids and how they deal with things. Rose and Dave don’t dwell on the dreams much because it’s hard for them to. Even Rose, the psychoanalysis aficionado, brushes her nightmare off as nothing important. Could this mean something deeper? Maybe. Who cares. Meanwhile John and Jade aren’t bothered by their dreams/lack of not because they’re avoiding them but because they just accept them. Water off a duck’s back.
