(beat Robbie(yay))<- no real point

Meh. Tom didn't say it in the irc channel. lol

I *still* wouldn't know it was up, but I checked my comic-cache folder, and there it was.
Though... My auto-uploader didn't work... I'm gonna have to fix that now.

clouds look great, i thought i saw a vapor trail, but upon further investigation it just seems to be a oddly placed sunbeam

i love how the two guards are indifferent to the point of boredom even when when theres a dragon swimming in the bay. there only concern is that shes in the way of a fishing boat.

and i don't know if it's Eric's ship but that ship looks like its kinda floating off in nowere
(just given people something to talk about)

****[totally unrelated[****
when i went to make sure i got Eric's name right i noticed that somewhere
between the festival and Eric's house, Flora got a beaded choker...odd

Haha, I like this one. I also like the improvement in the lineart, especialy in Nora (was that her name? im Horrible with names >.< ). Been wonering where she was. Maybe its mikes lucky day and hell be changed back. Or it could be his unlucky day, and she could mess with him a bit more :wink:

GLEEEEEE!

I love dragons! *^_^* And Miss Nora is so pretty! *^_^*

Beautifully done job on the water, Tom! And on her pose as she was bathing! You captured movement very well!

I love how the guards are kinda nervous, but even as such, they're more surprised than scared, in a kind of "Man, I'll have a great story for the bar tonight!" sort of way.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why the Basitin culture is so ordered and patterned and careful. So that when the unexpected happens, everyone knows how to act. So that politeness and duty rules the day.

Also suggests that the 'magic-less' Basitins might be a lot stronger than anyone would think... And, again, that the 'strong as a Dragon' etc. stuff for the Generals might not be exaggeration.

I'm still thinking internalized magic.

I'd love to see Nora-kitty slip in with the rest of them when they go to see the rulers of the isle, and the 'Wise' General look at her and blink in surprise... then give her a wink. (making Nora a bit disconcerted)

Then, when everything goes wrong, and Nora shifts to Dragon-form and attacks... the 'Strong' General is suddenly between her and her target, and catches her clawed foot and holds her back, to her intense surprise.



I just assumed that was something Mardi Gras style...

Nora looks so pretty in this comic. Oh pardon me, that is Miss Nora.

I really like how the Bastin are some polite. You have got to love soldiers that can be so polite, but can also rip you to shreds. :D

I guess Humans and Keidran aren't the bravest when it comes to hanging around dragons. Come to think of it, Humans even run away from rabbits.

KILLER RABBIT, KILLER RABBIT, RUN AWAY!!!

Nora is making me dislike her. She's mean, concieted, and far too arogant.
I'd like to think that my response to a 'real live dragon' would me more like that of the basitins.

Well, that IS demon bunny. I guess bastin soldiers are alot more strong willed than humans or keidrans. Hmm. That's odd. *mumbles somthing about the plot*

I honestly thought the guard was Keith at first, because of the eyes, but then i started seeing the differences :roll:

'Miss' Nora does look good though, i agree with kryss that Tom just nailed the movement aspect for that panel

But one thing thats on my mind, is that if Nora is back (or at least hanging around now), does that mean Mike/Michelle's "adventure" will end soon?, possibly around the time Evals attempts to get his "show" ? :wink:

Hee. *^_^*

Apparently, people are taken with my calling her 'Miss Nora'. *^_^* I dunno why I happened to call her that, it just seems to suit her. *^_^*

Or did I get that from somewhere else, and didn't realize it?

She's a dragon. Elves are always portrayed the same way for the same reason. You live long enough (and especially if you're powerful enough) and you develop a massive superiority complex. Nora honestly believes that, simply because she's a dragon, she's so superior to the other races that they only interest her as playthings. Exceptions might be made for individuals who are truly exceptional in some way, but otherwise she does what she wants to do, without regard for how it affects the mortals.

Me, I like the guard's scraggly goatee and wearied look. Poor guy probably spends his days shooing away ghost ships and walking drunken sailors to jail (let's face it, public intoxication's probably illegal here). His expression of surprise at Nora's presence ("Well, there's something you don't see every day...") isn't even all that surprised.


Well, she does use 'Miss' to correct the guard in the comic today.

As avwolf said, she's a dragon. I disagree with him about Nora's likely attitude towards the sentient races, but I think she really does view them as spoiled and arrogant children.

Dragons generally are the epitome of power and accumulated knowledge. It takes no conceit to recognize that. And she's not mean, she's just ... esoteric. She has an entirely different perspective on things.



Shooing away ghost ships. You know, you're probably right. "Sigh... another one of these magic things from the undisciplined outsides. No, no, sorry, no ghost ships in harbor without the proper form filled out in triplicate. Yes, you can send in a rowboat. What do you mean, the line's too long? You're a ghost, you have all of eternity, what's a few years and a few hundred forms?"

"What? Really? Well, that might be a tad bit of a problem, true, but you'll just have to do it in chunks every ten years, or send a representative. We can send paperwork back to your ship for you to sign."



Well, I've thought of her as Miss Nora since before that. I think it's a bit of my 'suthan' breaking through, because that's the twang I'm using for it, in the sense that she's a lady of breeding and respectability. Sorta. It's not 'Miss' as in 'She's a female' the way she's using it in the comic, it's 'Miss' as a nice subtle title of respect.

you know... I would like to whisper to nora this sentence..

""Hey, see the guy with the helmet on his head? he isnt moveing? well thats cause he is SCARED OUT OF HIS MIND and is letting his partner do all the talking""

LOL LOL i am very sure she would enjoy hearing that hahahah

anyways.. *cough* hehe.. Nora probably thinks the running his both fear but also it can be taken as a sort of respect, a respect for power and authority and also for the shear wisdom of such a creature and species she is *sigh* dragons are so beautiful.... heheh sorry I sometimes lose myself to their beauty grace and wonderfully shining scales... (OH NO I sound like a hume....) heheh

but seriously speaking... I think the Basitian will kinda makes them think like me ...er I mean think properly and Coherently

they need their fishing ships to enter the harbor, the dragoness is blocking it, they kindly request her to move so they can get the fish to their stores and feed their country/island/nation ... <_< well whichever they call themselfs... wait.. wasnt it a REPUBLIC of Basitian... <_< no no no... arg I CANT REMEMBER!!! -_-

...Annnyway... I find it cute that their sense of duty is overwhelming their sense of fear...

anyone have a take on that? that sense of duty in which you need to block fear and rationality out to do your job?... it's very interesting cause that sense that training and that overall motivation is just in every sense of the word nobel and honorable and also venorable....

just making a little coment on it cause you dont see that kind of chivalry too often now a days ... ^^

I like Nora. :D

Beautiful job on the sky, as always, and Nora is quite gorgeous in the second panel. The end joke made me laugh a bit, well done.

I want to pet her in the second panel. She looks like a giant puppy dog. ^_^

Nora looks great, but why is she no longer hiding herself?
