Comic for Monday, October 15th, 2018
So, mostly good news. The buffer is at +4 (two weeks) so that means there will be no gap while I’m out of the country. Unfortunately MayW is also going to be gone, so things will be mostly automated for a bit; I will keep an eye on comments for approving and the like via my phone, and I’ll upload everything to backend before I leave. Unfortunately building up the buffer has impacted the amount of bonus content for the month, but I figured people would rather the comic keeps updating than any of the details. Now that we have the buffer more or less safe for the long dark, I can start doing other stuff till I leave, and than probably work on Halloween incentive stuff mostly when I’m back (a few days before Halloween).
Summers is, as always, friendly and approachable, but Maggie is a difficult to phase. Usually it takes Maia jumping off roofs to accomplish perturbing her.
It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Mir, but I don’t think we’ve seen the last of her, or her story. I don’t think Mir is what I would call sympathetic, but there are more pieces to the puzzle that is everyone’s favorite petulant and ax crazy doctor.
I’m Glad to have the extra Buffer so we can have interrupted comic, I personally don’t really view bonus content for most things I do, Example: I just play story lines for most video games and call it good when I have completed the story, almost never go after extra non-essential gear.
another note: apparently nobody tells Summers anything that’s going on.
Well, I focus on the comic foremost as I think that’s the unifying thread of what pretty much everyone here cares about the most (me included). That said, I think almost everyone (me included) in general just wants more stuff – it’s always better to have stuff that you could read if you wanted.
Really, there’s a surprising diverse amount of things people want out of the comic, and in general, having bonus content serves to keep more people engaged throughout parts they may be less engaged with, and overall I’m aware that more content tends to mean more readers, and more engaged readers, which is better for everyone.
As for Summers, that’s sort of a running theme. Even Arron doesn’t really actually explain much to her. There is a reason she tends to be between cranky and confused. While her motivations are quite different than Naomi, Kally shares the preference for clarity of purpose.
Of course we haven’t seen the last of Mir. I mean, on this very page, we have Miko planning to become Mir junior. Mir *has* to return to see that, right?
Question: will Mium’s friends and family priority continue to apply to Miko after she’s transferred her consciousness into a robot body, or will it apply to the magic-using prototype that Miko makes with her Eidos key?
Just kidding. I understand we’re probably not going to swerve in that direction.
Miko isn’t opposed though; she already displays more indifference than Mium does, and isn’t sold on the need for so many fleshy bits….
We never did hear what Miko was going to say about meeting Mir way back when, did we…?
We? Um, I’m not sure how to answer that. I mean, I know the *rest* of us didn’t hear, but I never know what you hear. I get the feeling you are more in touch with this process than the rest of us.
Just to clarify, I was not intending to make a statement one way or the other re: prototype M.i.k.o. I was merely guessing that she was not going to make another sibling (or niece?) for Mium to worry about.
I mean, how could I know the parts of the story that aren’t published… do you think I’m some sort of omniscient being??
I’m just joking, I was figure it’s fair game to post a clue if it’s just referring back to an old page that not everyone would remember. 🙂
