“Embrace your fear.”
Fairly early update this week, nice.
Just about the usual. Last week was the odd duck being so late in the day.
“Nothing too personal, I hope…”
Not yet, but give it a few years.
Indeed! XD
I’m late
Nah, it just went up awhile ago.
Skipping ahead a bit? For shame =P. Naw, it still is cute, but a bit short with just four panels of close-ups. Hmmm… Dare I hope that another update is on the way? Or are there just time-related issues as the reason?
Also, roflmao, Shadow thinks Tim’s harmless? XD
After last weeks page I needed a break, so I made an easy page this time. The time jump skipping the hashing out of a deal was always meant to be though… there’s more important fun stuff to get to and I didn’t wanna waste a week or two on coming up with the new status quo. It’ll be pretty apparent on it’s own and the important facts’ll be discussed as needed.
Heh, no prob~! Just would have been funny to see Time explain the wounds to his Ruthless mother. =D
I take it Midnight has a pretty good idea of how Shadow feels (even if Shadow is not willing to admit just how much Tim means to her to herself).
I’m sure she suspects it, although it’s a more general warning because this whole situation is a dangerous game.
Finally, I have been waiting all week! I know its hard work but dammit I need more!:)
So they managed to convince Middy not to blab. However, this means that she’s now technically an accomplice… assuming that what Shadow is doing is technically a crime in her world.
Is it bad that I’m excited to see them eventually get caught? I’m a drama addict.
I think it’s inevitable, but not until things get well out of hand. 😉
This has nothing to do with the new page but will everyone age in real life or in their comic world. Because if age in the real world will they will always have a birthday on the same date but in their world it will be random since a few pages usually are for only 1 night.
I know Ive said waaaaay to much but i just wanted to know.
They will age, but we won’t see every birthday as there will be a major time skip or two.
Great series! I was just recently introduced to it through your DA I’m http://bobbyjohnford.deviantart.com/
You do an awesome job with your art and story telling. And on top of that you are cool to respond to everyone’s comment – truly a sign of someone dedicated to his fans. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for stopping by the site to check it out! And hey, I try to keep in touch if I have the time. It’s really not THAT hard, I’m surprised more people don’t manage to keep up with their fans, or at last their regulars!
Btw, can you recommend any other webcomics that portray the human male/ anthro female dynamic? Seeing your comic makes me want to see more!
I guess you could look up the Monster Musume magna… other than that I can’t really help you much. I don’t read a ton of webcomics personally.
I have a feeling this won’t go nearly as smoothly as Shadow thinks 😀
Also, Midnight seems to like cookies too it seems !
Who don’t like coockies?
I’m very happy that we’re sticking to the 13 spot this month 🙂
Hehe, me too! I usually end up sliding back down to the 20’s or 30’s by now, so this is encouraging. 🙂
I’m probably a little off on this, but with at least one known (to me) mid week page, congratulations on a year’s worth of chapters.
Well, when I launched the site I already had 2 pages complete, and the two ‘chapter title’ pages were updated at the same time as neighbouring story pages; not to mention my one mid-week update. So, it’s not exactly time quite yet… but very soon!
The actual site anniversary in November 15th.
Hmm… five days after Fallout 4 has launched.
I should have some time after five days playing to comment about the anniversary then.
Haha maybe!
Keep up the good work. Have you ever thought of doing a AMA on Reddit? it might be cool for us fans to find out more about your work style and your planning.
I don’t think an AMA is exactly necessary, since I’ll already attempt to answer most questions here (or wherever) already.
Hello there, I just catch your comics going on like two weeks ago (for chapter 51) and I must say it’s quite remarquable !
The art and lightning are great and the story looks promising (even if it’s just the begining).
And by the way I’m french, so please excuse my gramaticals mistakes if you read some x)
Keep going, your stuff is great and I’ll be waiting for the next updates ! (like many, many more persons I presume)
Hello! Thank you for the comment! 🙂 Your post was totally understandable, so no worries!
Yeah. My guess would be what would concern, er, whoever, would be less concerned about what’s happening in the flashback, and more concerned about what they’re doing in the here-and-now…
Especially as they don’t know who can hear them. They are in the main corridor after all.
This is true, and we shall see if anything comes of it, much like Tim’s parents possibly being deaf to whatever’s going on in their son’s room at night.
I’m certainly trying to get back to the present day (and the main plot), but there’s still a lot to set up back in the early days yet. So if I skip over some seemingly important stuff, I apologize to anyone who wants to dwell on that stuff, but in the end the facts will be presented in other ways eventually. It’s all in the name of moving this thing along faster. XD
