who wears it girlier ?

so anyway, last night i was sleeping, and i was dreaming, and in my dream i was reading a book of strange stories written for children. interestingly, the book i was reading had chosen to typeset apostrophes as broken bars similar to how i do in real life. even more interesting, the broken bar glyph that they chose looked completely unlike any glyph i had ever imagined for it: it placed two dots, one at baseline and one at midline, and extended vertical bars upwards until the lower bar touched the upper dot.

this actually looked pretty good in practice! but things got even more interesting: my dream‐typesetter decided that the shape of the glyph should change when the punctuation which immediately followed was an exclamation point or a question mark. that is, the first broken bar in ‹ whomst¦d¦ve. ›, ‹ whomst¦d¦ve? ›, and ‹ whomst¦d¦ve! › was always the same, but the second one varied in shape.

i have attached an image of me trying to recreate these alternatives this morning after i woke up:
