FAQ

Q: Why does Copper like lemons so much?
A: It's been so many years since I made that decision that I have no recollection of why I made him eat those. Probably a random funny.
Here's a related video though (youtube link)Q: Why doesn't Lucy talk?
A: She has selective mutism which makes her only able to talk with people she is comfortable around.Q: Why did Lucy's eyes change color?
A: It's a reference to real life reindeer eyes that change color depending on the season. They adapt to long dark winters (blue color) and light summers (golden color) up north. SourceQ: Is this based on Alaska or Canada?
A: Neither, everything in Duottar is inspired by the nature and architecture of northern Finland (my homeland)Q: Are Andre and Copper in love? / Is this BL?
A: They're not officially together in the epilogue, but whatever happens after that is up to you, they can either remain friends or end up loving each other. I don't have a problem with shipping them at all. They are very compatible and very cute whether bromance or romance (They're both 18 at the end of the comic) so feel free to interpret their relationship in either way. The main focus of the story is being okay with who you are and having someone to relate to, and I like writing about friendships, so I wanted to let them grow as friends throughout the main story and support each other first and foremost.
TL:DR
This is not BL but you're free to ship them if you want it's your choice
