A good peasant is loyal, simpleminded, and full of misdirected anger.

Chapter 9, Page 4

So you’ve all mentioned that Roger sounds a little down, and Girii’s acting a little violent.  Jacob seems to be smiling a lot, also.  I hope you didn’t think all that was accidental…

 

↓ Transcript
Roger: I can't stop thinking about Ruacrenca. I got everything on camera, Girii. I have footage of Joey massacring the village. I'll be okay. I just --
Girii: I understand, Roger. After we left, I was horrified, but...while I was there, I felt nothing. I started following Jacob because I hoped the he'd become happier. More like me. Instead, I'm worried...that I'm becoming more like him.
Roger: Are you planning on blowing anything up?
Girii: No.
Roger: Then I think you're okay.

    Magic flying bucket, tell me the secrets of more than one update within a week.

  2. Remus Shepherd says:

    Um…I finish and post two pages instead of one. No magic flying bucket enters into the process, although I’d make room for one if I had it.

    Strangely, the move seems to have decreased commenting. The readers can’t play off each other as easily as before. Hopefully that will change as readership continues to grow.

    It`s the end of the world as we know it.
    And he feels fine.

  4. Carrot says:

    Ahh, sorry if you feel a bit lonely. I’ve just been enjoying silently as of late.

  5. Magtei says:

    Anime fan means that shadow buckets are superior to regular buckets because they have no need for handles. I would say it’s fine and reasonable given the handle thickness and relative distances.

    It may be that the current group has a fixed comments/week capacity, but I would suggest that the chapter jump has disturbed the regular dynamic. The last few pages feel like a calm before a storm. For the first time in several chapters, they are staying in one place.

  6. Siirenias says:

    Magic flying bucket need not your efforts, for magic flying bucket goes as it pleases.

    And it pleases us all in the process, so it’s a win.

    I never thought I’d see Jacob drink beer.
    Don’t know if I should be worried for him, or happy 😀

  8. Remus Shepherd says:

    But it’s not beer. It’s alcoholic, hyper-caffeinated iced tea. 🙂
