Me: you know there's a reason I haven't done actual word balloons
Also me: shut up
Me: they're so much more fiddly than they look, huh
Also me: shut. up.
dear author: "you don't have to draw the character you enjoy drawing, just the ones you're sick of" is not the win you think it is
at least Luian's leaving finally
... i hope
... we better not be following her outside
I have a list of "22 ways to draw two characters talking for when the writer won't let anything more interesting happen" (thanks @XyzzySqrl !)
still running out of ways to draw this conversation tho
artist not artsy enough for many of them o_o;;;;
i was only willing to draw them all because writer promised this is the end of the arc and they're leaving now
_finally_
Strip number 50!
New arc starts tomorrow!
I need to make a second page for it on the website. And link to it from the top level. Which means naming it.
Sigh.
Maybe "The Cat's Warlock".
I'd go with "Moon and Her Warlock" but it feels like false advertising since Moon doesn't show up that much. Zhenshay is very much the main character.
New arc time!
Look, new characters!
You can check the alt text to learn their names or you can wait until the author gets around to it in the dialogue, which she presumably will at some point in the next month or two.
oh hey the author named the new characters in the dialogue already. who would've expected.
tho the man's full name is Valor. only Victory calls him Val
In honor of exceeding 50 comics, I have given the comic a name: "The Cat's Warlock".
I renamed the webpage it's on to match the new title, and moved the 0-50 comics to an archive page so that it's not an infinite scroll to get to the newest.
Also updated my site so you can actually navigate to the comics page from the rest of ladyrowyn.com .
The old page redirects to the new 'most recent comics' page, also: https://ladyrowyn.com/thecatswarlock.html
Zhenshay has been talking to these people for three (3) panels and is already So Done.
a mere five panels later, Zhenshay has convinced V&V to address him properly
this is going great
the author assures me that *at some point* she will get to the point of this scene
probably even this month
hope none of you were looking forward to seeing the last of these two
o_o;;;;
@rowyn very “hm” about his majesty apparently expecting this reception (or well maybe not exactly this, but Zhenshay wanting nothing to do with them) and going ahead with the whole plan anyway
Are they just wildly disrespectful of their ex fiances boundaries? using Zhenshay and their lack of interest as a way to get out of being married to some other worse prospect? like how when you’re on unemployment sometimes there’s no jobs that look good but you still have to submit at least one application a week, so you pick a place that definitely isn’t going to call you back
@Satsuma
Valor: "It's ... complicated."
Victory: "Way too complicated for me to follow."
Victory: "I maybe get why Zhenshay doesn't want to be royalty. I wouldn't want to be royalty either."
