When will next chapter come?
I honestly wouldn’t hold my breath. Next year sometime at this rate.
I’ve got a lot of things to setup in chapter 2 still.
Wow, if human fear makes her feel good, I wonder what surfing the internet must feel for her.
She should be alright; the internet doesn’t have any pheromones!
Maybe she should try smell-o-vision the next time she surfs the internet.
Or watch a horror movie with Tim ;D
That would be awesome and funny.
cant wait for the next cap, tho.
Oh, it’s on the activity list before the end of chapter 2.
“Oh Timmy? Won’t you play some more Silent Hill? Pretty please?”
Now his will be interesting. Is he afraid of girls or not. Or does he just feel a little uncomfortable around them?
Maybe he’s just uncomfortable around the ones with no underwear?
Good point. I think that would make any boy his age uncomfortable.
For your typical twelve year old boy, girls are both fascinating and a little scary.
He’s not afraid of GIRLS
He’s afraid of GIRLS that don’t wear PANTIES
So now we’ve finally found out why they hide under the beds? Or is this some misdirection?
Little disappointed if it’s so simple, read through the whole of ‘Mind’ waiting for a reveal of why they did it in the first place.
Not disappointed at all with the art and loving Shadows advance across the room into Tim’s space.
It is a simple reason, though it’s a holdover from some revelation about their origins. When I wrote ‘Mind’ I still hadn’t figured out why they did it and was treating it as a joke, but now I know and am incorporating it into this.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Brandon, thank you! We get some insight into her race and why they do what they do. Love the page and the little cake still on the dress nice touch, lets if anyone she know notices when she goes back under. I wouldnt a little more wait though if we get to see more.. ehm.. And boy, I hope we get some more she leaves.
Hope she goes under the head first. Knowing the effect the moon will have on Tim watching. Bare minimun. since she’s gone down leg first in pass pages. I have a feeling your holding out on us with that.
Just want to addon a more serious note, I believe artist should be able to draw what they want. it’s just a fantasy on paper. It’s not like it’s a real picture drawing 9 year olds doing it. seriously, hates American censorship. “Omg did that person doodle kids” AND? Its not real, shessh. I know what direction I would go with this page after this with one or two pages. F censorship.
sorry, my 2 cents. Rant over
I may play around with this ‘going head first’ thing a bit, we’ll see!
Well some people will try to sexualise just about anything.
What feels good to a kid is entirely different.
Probably like delicious cake, to be quite honest.
excellent paweexy the way. Love the subtle hint that you’re back in Tim’s room, still got the cake on the dress, she touches it, and the expression on the face, especially hers. when I loaded the page, I was slowly scrolling each panel with bated breath. After panel 5 I was hoping for another little flash. Maybe next week.
Haha, what’s paweexy?
I like your art style and the concept, good work!
Thank you guy from Cuba!
I remember reading your story somewhere, is there anywhere its available to read again? I can’t seem to find it.
It’s out there if you’re vigilant. Try getting more specific in Google.
Dat grin tho. That would scare the crap outta me.
Oh man that fifth panel, cant feel to be excited and slightly concerned about it.
Wait how did she get a fear of girls out of how he’s acting? I mean he was almost caught by his parents with a little monster girl who was unintentionally flashing him. Plenty of sources of fear.
She’s extrapolating from what happened in the kitchen… she just happens to be right. 😉
What kind of a monster is Shadow? She seems like a succubus in training to me 😄
Reallly like the show of shadow’s teeth in the last panel there keep up the work
