*snaps*
ACH DU LEIBER
It iz spelt NEIGHBORHOOD, illiterate schweinhund!!!!
FIX NOW!!!!
ACHTUNG!!!
*grammar Nazi fades*
….what just happened?
Okay, this…………….
This here, was funny as hell……….
One nitpick, Achtung means attention, in this case “SCHNELL” would have made more sense
Nitpickception!
But seriously, I fixed it. 🙂
Well, he could have said, Achtung, SCHNELL!” LOL.
I missed how Brandon originally spelt it neighbourhood. Then he spelled it the British way of spelling it, which would be equally correct.
“Neiborhood”. I totally missed it on my final pass! XD
Also, it’s spelled “Ach du lieber… (Gott, Schwan, maybe some other local variants)”.
“Leiber” is something entirely different.
*Lieber
So much for the Grammar Nazi -.-
Just tell them there’s a snake inside. Xp
Haha, sure! That’s one way of explaining it, I suppose!
Go with the spaceballs excuse: sorry, it has a mind of its own!
Having claws on the wrong number of toes and fingers might also be a problem!
Prosthetics! Birth defects! Hearsay!
Rice picker accident! 🙂
I would take her out
Oh, I’m sure Tim would love to!
Just slap a zipper on her back and say her parents are rich. Most folks when given the slightest explanation the weird will take.
Thats how it worked in an old Bruce Collville (I think?) book (Monster of the Year?) with Gillman.
Occam’s Razor, man. Given the choice between an unlikely possibility and a slighty more plausible one, people will choose the one that leaves less unanswered questions. Here, her being a rich kid would leave more pretense than her being a monster.
Her parents are great make-up artists and costumers for movies!
Sounds plausible. With a good make-up artist you can get incredible results.
I remember seeing an awesome She-Venom body paint.
The rest could be explained with special shoes and four-fingered gloves (ring finger and little one in one finger).
Do you plan on changing the voting picture anytime soon? A Shadow pin-up would be nice.
Shadow will be next, whenever it is updated!
We have a Shadow pinup in this page!
Ohhhh I’m certainly looking forward to this 🙂 Especially the reactions from smaller children and do not forget MOM Ruth 🙂
We shall see what awaits!
If they could find a way to hide the fact that her tail is prehensile (maybe figure out how to keep it still) and the fact that she has the wrong number of fingers and toes (gloves and shoes?), I think it could work. Everything else can be explained away or handwaved.
I’m sure there’s a simple solution!
Will they or won’t they dare it… interesting !
Indeed!
Umm, Brandon?….
Spelling error panel 2; “neiGhborhood” in US-speak or “neiGhbourhood” in English. (Sorry, nit picked)
I suspect that there’s a 40-year old (male or female) in a Sailor Moon costume in the district anyway, so Shadow won’t be standout weird. Those feet will be hard to disguise, though.
Dress her as a fairy princess or a ballerina? (You know you want to!)
Ha, that reminds me of that Gargoyles episode where they put on costumes and walk around openly and everyone compliments them on their “layered costumes”.
Remember that episode. They DID look stupid.
Gargoyles was such an awesome show.
I remember that episode clearly. It was one of my favorites. I member Elisa was Bell from Beauty and the Beast. And Fox was turning into a werewolf. Elisa took off the bottom half of her gown to cover fox in the end.
Ya good idea to tell a real monster that loves candy abought Halloween. I bet my Halloween candy that she falowes Tim and go’s trick or treating.
Man I can’t wait to see what happens next, you sure have me waiting for that weekly release. I hope Tim and Shadow stumble with Tims parents
People will think Shadow’s in a costume and not know that she’s a real monster from a world located under Tim’s bed.
Well, it’s not just under tim’s bed. From what I understand it’s under every bed. Think of it as the closet door from Monsters Inc. millions of places to go, all you need is the right device and a destination
I wonder, in the Future when they do it, will Shadow have Tim dressed up as Horror movie villains in bed?
If so, that would be so fun to see. Jason would be hard to pull ou-I mean off but because of the mask but I am sure Shadow will find a way to make it work.
I’m not sure they’ll be doing role play quite so early in their relationship! It’ll still be quite fresh just dealing with the basics.
Maybe this will be where Shadow learns all about underwear…
Haha, don’t count on it. Tim isn’t exactly a saint!
I like the way you think.
I suspect Shady ALREADY “knows about” underwear (from hanging about under beds!) and is a commited and serial refuser.
Go Shadow!
I support your principled stance!
