Hey guys, here's the update! It's a bit late, sorry about that. Lots of frazzling going on :'D
Thanks so much for taking part in the mug survey, the survey is now closed and I am now sending the designs off to the printers with all the colour counts and things. :D Everyone who took part should receive an email later <3 Thank you!!
Will post two Friday Flares up this weekend <3 see you guys then!
Jinn does actually have a pretty good head screwed on when it comes to these things, even though he's pretty awful of delegating orders to the people around him XD <3 hehehe...
Do you know where the term 'baddie' comes from? Is it just a natural thing kids just start calling goombas and hammer bros? I've always called them 'baddies' when I was a kid but now that I think about it, I'm not sure how I thought to do so! XD;;
That would be so anti-climactic, Nadine would probably dejectedly chuck his gauntlets down and then go to the tavern with his head down sadly. And then remember it's in shambles because of him, and then go sob in a shady street somewhere with a cheap alco-pop instead XD
I love how he is a combination of insulting her and yet also in his own weird way trying to protect her x"DD
I like their dynamics! Poor mikey---this is his body getting fried afterall :'D
Ayayay that looks painful :S
Glad they're somewhat cooperating, amid all the name-calling
Also would like to mention that I like how you've differentiated Jinn and Mike-- in the sense of, even though they currently have the same face, Jinn makes expressions that we've never seen on Mike, and we can tell the difference; I think that's pretty cool how you did that :)
It certainly has Jinn!Mikey gritting his teeth for all he's worth :'D
And aww, thank you, that's hugely encouraging to hear! <3 :D That little expression exercise I told you about helps a lot with this kinda thing XD <33 (It also helps that Jinn and Mikey are pretty darn different XD)
I guess we'll see if there's a threshold that one of them can take before the other gets subbed in. From what we've seen previously that may only happen if Jinn goes unconscious.
Hmmm, that's interesting, Cresty. XD; But if the body is too physically burnt out or exhausted, even if the other consciousness took over, wouldn't they immediately pass out again anyway? XD;;;
lol I just looked at this page again read the mouseover text, and all I could think of when you said "cello-tape" was the musical instrument x'D (the fact that I'm sitting at work surrounded by double-basses and cellos might have something to do with that x'D)
Buggering, I can't believe I've been mis-spelling that all my life XD;;; Google has corrected me, so that alt-text now stands corrected! Sorry for inadvertently bringing cellos to mind XDD
What do you do for work, btw, Kat? O_O If you don't mind me asking!
I work part-time with a youth orchestra at my university; it mostly involves moving chairs and music stands around and tripping over all the cello cases that kids leave on the floor x'D
Okay... So... they're pretty outmatched at the moment... I get that... but... still..
I gotta give props to Jinn/Micheal for just taking that attack like a GANGSTER!
It's not an ideal situation, you're right :'D I do seem to enjoy putting them in these tight scrapes XD;;
And Jinn!Mikey can take damage like a champ when he knows it's coming like that XD;; 'specially when it's Mikey's body he's borrowing - the dude is tough as nails! ;)
...and yeah, good idea jinnie...
...but you should have moved a bit to the side so the strings are bend around the bars...
I just hope nadine gets fried also...
Great to hear - I am sooooo looking forward to those mugs... <3
(...and of course to the flares tomorrow also) ;)
I'm really happy you're looking forward to the mugs, Mjkj! :D They're in production now~~ (well, they should be XD;)
The Friday Flare posts went up on Sunday. :)
Nemi, listen to him, and try to act quickly enough that you both survive! You can get on him about calling you a moron AFTER you are both safe!
Stop the baddie first at least!
Great effects!
And thankyewwww <3 :D
Go Jinn, smart thinking!
As for Nemi, we'll see about that next page, yep! What can she do...?
I love how he is a combination of insulting her and yet also in his own weird way trying to protect her x"DD
I like their dynamics! Poor mikey---this is his body getting fried afterall :'D
I'm happy you like the dynamics at play! :) Nemi and Jinn are fun to write since they have such easy-going insultery going on XD
Glad they're somewhat cooperating, amid all the name-calling

Of course, this time he has the excuse of being in pain, so... understandable.
To be fair, I feel like he probably would've doled those out anyway if the situation called for it... XD

Double basses are the best though xD
