#50 “Trouble”
“Mmmhmm… storm’s a brewin’ alright.”
And so we come to page 50, another milestone reached! Glad to see so many new faces around these parts lately and hopefully everyone will stick around for the next 50 pages, in which several interesting developments will begin to take shape!
Don’t forget to vote on TWC! —->
When fighting monsters, always have a blanket, and Chips Ahoy! on hand. And prepare to tickle for your life.
Heh, blankets are the best protection against monsters! It’s an unwritten rule!
New reader here, with a bit of a concern. I’m really enjoying the plot this is developing, but isn’t 9 a little early on the puberty? Wouldn’t it really hit them around 11 or 12? Regardless, it’s super cute, and I’m interested to see where this goes. Tits or no, the adorable factor is why I’m still reading, even if you teased us with boobs a few times.
They aren’t in puberty yet, at least Tim isn’t. Shadow may develop a bit faster than a human might, but by no means is she mature.
Oh cool. I thought that was implied in some earlier stuff, but that is good to know.
As for mature? I know plenty of adults who are well out of puberty who aren’t mature. 😛
Me too! XD
just came here, looks cute. sad only weekly updates but o well, bookmark’d!
Thank you! Hope to see you around in the future!
Um…. what do they do when the cookies run out?
Let’s hope they don’t have to find out!
I’m instantly reminded of two things! Panel one, watch 1:00

And panel 2

They ARE the taste of happy!
I smell some.. bonding time with Tim and Midnight.
Ahh yes, NSP! I was very amused listening to this song the first time. XD
Also, we’ll put a pin in that bonding time and see how things develop. XD
So what will the two of them do with Midnight when she’s…sated?
(Grin) Tell her that they’ll keep stuffing her mouth with cookies if she keeps her mouth shut otherwise. “The first dose is free…”
well then it seem someone has been attending the bi weekly villain seminars.
Heh, you haven’t seen true villainy in this comic yet, but you will! XD
I think they might just have to! XD
I look forward to that day
Talk it out. That seems to be the plan for now.
It’s hard to believe they’re only nine.
I consider Tim to be from the same mold Kevin McCallister from Home Alone is from. Highly capable of dealing with whatever is thrown at him, even though he’s just a kid.
Horrible mental image: monster girls working at a cookie factory. Think of the infamous Lucille Ball working at the candy assembly line as a reference.
And if it comes to tickling Midnight, I think Shadow might be surprised by HER reaction. Subconsciously, she’s already thinking of Tim as “HER human boy”. Seeing him performing an innocently intimate act like tickling might cause her an unexpected bout of jealousy… And that cute little cheek blush we see on Mid in panel two here might become a full-body blush.
Hah, well, we’ll just have to see how that little subplot goes.
It won’t happen. You didn’t edit it out of my post. (Grin)
Well, that’s a just pre-supposed notion, not a direct spoiler. So it’s okay! 😉
honestly I have been drawn in and want to see it through until its finished
Awesome! Happy to have you aboard! *salute*
First time posting since starting to read this a few weeks ago.
Just wanted to say congrats on the 50 page mark! Looking forward to (hopefully) 50 more. 😀
Thanks for the comment! I’m certain there will be well over 50 more. I mean, I’m thinking I could hit multiple hundreds someday.
And now for the interrogation. Tim will be good cop and Shadow will bad cop
Haha, something like that.
funnyjunk led me here, gotta say i love the art, and the story. looking forward to more
“Welcome to the world of tomorrow!” or my comic, either way: Welcome and thanks!
Causing trouble would be to ignore Midnight even though you’re sure that she would follow you anyways and then you would have no plan to catch. Preventing trouble would be to bring her along and do like the above.
point – shadow sticking out tongue
Shadow knows what she’s doing. 😉
I have to wonder when Shadow and Tim put this little plan together. Did she go into Tim’s room in the middle of the day? Or go up at night, quickly work out a plan and then hurry back down to wait for Midnight? A little piece of story I think we need to see ^_^
Hello there! Thanks for posting my comic up on Funnyjunk! The ridiculous view count is still rolling in even as we speak! It’s only 9am here and already I’ve gotten over 68,000 views even after it rolled into Sunday… that’s already more than DOUBLE what my usual all day view count comes out as usually on an average update day. I’m seriously curious just what it’ll be when the day caps off at midnight…
I could reach through my screen and hug you! ¦-) So, thanks!
Anyway, Shadow dropped in and put this together with Tim just before her meeting with Midnight was supposed to happen. I imagine she told Midnight to meet her at a specific time later in their shift in order to have the time to run it by Tim first, then went back down and waited on Tim’s stoop to set it in motion.
It’s a great comic, I thought it deserved a little free advertisement. I won’t be posting any more of it on Funnyjunk, just teasing those first three pages to entice more people to follow the link and find it here. Though people in the comments are now wondering if you’ll start an account and post it there.
I expected a few dozen new readers, but 68,000 views has made my jaw drop. Shows how great your work is, to pull in so many.
Well, it’s not really that many people, that’s actually counting every time somebody looks at an individual page, all added up to a total view count, but when my average before was around 20-30,000 it is a big step up.
It’s actually more like 1300 individuals reading the whole comic, which is wonderful in itself. I’ll post a total tally at the end of the day, I’m sure it’ll be crazy.
Haha, I may just end up creating an account there if it spreads the word like this!
Thanks again, friend!
I just came from funnyjunk and just finished reading all chapters and even donated (hopefully it worked, i got a confirmation letter but paypal said error…) and am now waiting for the continuation of your work!
If you ever make a funnyjunk account, then i’ll be sure to find you! 🙂
It worked, thank you very much! 🙂
I’m certainly thinking about creating an account there for sure!
I haven’t been through all the comments, so just wondering if anybody made any jokes about Midnight being The Monster Under The Bedding?
Stuff a cookie in the mouth and tickle is pretty much how I was raised.
Nope! You’re the first!
I dont know why I love this page I just do brilliant work Brandon keep up the good work
I like every panel here but I think I like the last one best with Shadow poking her tongue out they are such children
Heh, yeah! I forget to highlight this fact too often. XD
Thanks!
