Comic for Monday, May 18th
Blarg. It ended up a little late after all that. I feel like I say this every time these days… but… next one will be on time!
This page was a little hard for me to write. It’s a complex conversation between imperfect narrators. Still, I did want to spend a little time building out information on what the characters know about magic and technology.
Life and arms (the shoulder problem) have not really been cooperating to give me the time I need to produce all the content for the comic (Patreon stuff, vote incentives, blog posts, higher quality pages); while I have no one to blame but myself for letting the buffer run out, it will still be a little while before we get all the ducks in a row it looks like. Still trying; if I get out of jury duty tomorrow I foresee catching up next week. If I don’t it’s hard to say. Worst comes to worst, June is when I can actually use the right arm a little more normally (start of physical therapy), and will be able to make a lot more in a lot smaller chunk of time.
Hee, hee. I just saw the new voting incentive. Now THAT’S the Naomi I know and love. ^^
Ah, so the key is a brain pattern of some sort with a mathematical base (the part Naomi has trouble with), which requires imagination to function.
Which is where the autocaster comes in, supplying the mathematical underpinnings of magic use.
You’ve created a very interesting world, and I’m impressed.
Thanks! It’s humbling to have someone reading closely enough to put together so many details so fast and appreciate the comic and it’s world.
In not-that-long it’s come a long way in drawing and writing, and has a long way to go; having people who read it and enjoy it really are a large part of the motivation to keep trying to improve the art and writing to deliver the story in it’s best possible form, so, once again, thanks for commenting!
