Aaand I'm back with another one of my little brief interludes between chapters.
We get to meet a new character here! A childhood friend of Hizruk's... more about her and her other connections to come ;D
---
It's nice to be updating again! It's still friday... I DIDN'T FAIL! Lol. I hope you're all having a good day and have a better weekend!
See you next Friday!
Uh-oh...a childhood friend Hizruk made a promise with?
I'm guessing she's coming back from wherever she went away to and of course obviously does not know about all the things that happened to him.
Yeaa hahaha she might be in for some surprises! Afterall she might understand why he didn't return her letters if she knew he was in the DUNGEON X"DDD
Dang, she's determined to keep sending letters.
She's so cute with her little girl roundness :)
Haha the heart wants what the heart wants I suppose!
I guess she's not the only one in this comic obsessed with sending letters that don't get returned! X"D
Thank u so much! <3
Thank you it is good to be back!
Hahaa yes... yes it kind of is, isn't it x"D
Great to see a new update. Quite a change from confronting a backstabbing grandfather. Nice flashback of Hizruk and friend from his pre-scar days.
Thank you, Slim!
LOL yes quite a nice little contrast there XD. A glimpse into a happier time in Hizruk's life....even if it's a little bit of a sad moment :P. Maybe good times are to come again!
Awwww! Looking through OCs I wonder...if I will have guessed who it is correctly....hm....>.>
So adorable though :) And yay for being back on Friday! :D
Hehe well I suppose you will find out next page! :3
Tho she is not a fan-made OC....she's actually one of my oldest characters I created not long after Hizruk himself!
Thank you! <3
Oooh...so my first guess was wrong then, but looking again at the page, it must be Serafine's daughter that she thought was comparable to Gwynn losing Hizruk, when they argued way back when? I think?
YAY! This pleases me! YOu shall---this whole interlude is setting up her return :3
Awww, what cuties. It'll be neat to see more about other people who knew Hizruk as a kid! And get to know more about other aspects of Serpent life!
Yea! Maybe someone from his past who won't be a jerk! Lololol I'm excited to bring her in. I think some of her connections are gonna be interesting haha
RED ALERT! RED ALERT! We have a possible love interest, I repeat, we have a possible love interest!
Sound the shipping alarms!!! *sounds of fog horns blare in the distance*
after channeling my inner 12-year-old for the last page, I'm putting him back in his cage, it's time to be a grown up again.
That is so sweet! I love her already!
*How can I sing "sittin in a tree" if I don't even know her name?* Shaddup you, get back in your cage, you're not wanted here inner 12-year-old!
LOL!!! Don't worry, 12 yr old Don... you will know her name next page! <333
She is a very nice girl, I think she'll bring some lightness back up in this place! :3
I AM DYING.
SHIP THIS THING. THIS HAS LITERALLY SAILED IN THE LAST PANEL
LOL! You have been waiting for this moment a long time!!!
Hahhahaaha omg you're right about that last panel!
Good grief, that's a lot of pink xD
Also, Hizzy you should've been less busy being in dungeon. Shame on you :p
Hahahahahaha her mom totally got in to the "Dress up my lil' girl' stuff x"D
I know GEEZ Hizruk :P
Aww! This is so cute, seeing little Hizruk and--
OMG LOOKIT THAT HOT, YOUNG MEREK. *_*
LOL!! Thank you! He appreciates this comment yus <33 lolol
Omg. Little Hizzy is beyond adorable! I love everything about this page! ^_^
You haven't posted a new page yet, therefore I'm not late. >.>
And now, for confession time with Blue. I completely forgot all about these interludes and the fact that they exist. So my first thought was 'Huh? Where's the title page for the next chapter?' And then I read the author's comment and realized what a dingus I was.
I've mentioned how lovely it is to see Kaleal (correct me if I spelled her name wrong) handling Hizruk's 'disappearance' like this - willing to listen and sure there's a reasonable explanation. She's hurt, but she's not angry. Just disappointed, and she's still trying to bridge the perceived gap. A VERY nice change when you look at how Gwynn and Hizruk are treating Merek for essentially the same kind of thing.
And I still think her influence is likely what will push Hizruk to finally listen to Merek and give him a chance to explain himself. Not that I expect the explanation to go particularly well - Merek has this self-punishment thing down to a science. But I'm looking forward to it nonetheless and I hope for bridges to finally start being mended.
Kiddo Hizruk has the floofiest hair, I swear. It's doing that runaway poofy cowlick thing and I adore it so much. Absolute cuties, the pair of them.
I'm assuming the whole crying/promise/cheek kiss is a sequence that happened when Kaleal learned that she had to leave for schooling? That'd make sense. It always hurts to leave your friends. Gosh darn it, she's a cute little thing. Kind of a silly headband though. Oh well. XD
Ha, that kid has his finger up his nose. :D Melchy-something, I think his name is.
Nice to see Kaleal's parents and why the HECK can I not remember her dad's name? Neru? Maybe? Rrrrgh, in any case, it's nice to see them looking happy - albeit understandably sad to see their daughter sailing off into the blue. Liking Seraphine's arm around her husband's waist; see? She cares. XD
Gwynn wearing a ponytail? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS? You have two hairstyles, stop changing it. XD Nah, I kid, it looks good on her.
I'm just gonna appreciate Merek for a couple of seconds here... as you do.... yes. Okay. I'm good now. Well done.
And that final aaaaalmost merged into one line of panels at the bottom.... perfection. I love it, this is such a cute page. Well done.
And I take it the first panel is grown-up Kaleal's letter she's in the middle of writing? Nice little desk setup there, from what I can see. I'm appreciating her use of a fountain pen (yes, I know, literally everyone in this universe probably uses them but I don't care, I appreciate it anyway) and I'm always a fan of legible cursive. Really lovely.
And last but not least, kiddo Hizruk smiling all over the place. I gotta stick my heart in the fridge now; it's melting all over the place.
Hahaha you wanna talk about "late" let's talk about next page X"D
You don't have to worry about late or not late with these comments silly! It's a privilege for me to even get them! <3
Yess Kaleal certainly handles this sorta thing differently....buuuut to hizruk and gwynn's defense-- since i gotta play devil's advocate XD--- it is a bit of a different scenario X'D
LOL you can thank her mother for that silly headband--Serafine dressed her up so crazy girly weird X3. You're very close on her dad's name! It's "Neku" :D. Sera and Neku are probably the happiest and most content couple in SoO X"D.
Yesss Hizzy used to be such a happy little boy x"D
Ohhhh she's coming back from Serpents-Girl-Land huh? :D
Hahahaha that's right! Finally this comic might start to even out a little! LOL
