[082 - 2000] Successful incubation
Comic chat The egg has hatched! I’ve finally introduced Lapin! Well, yes, he appeared in comic #42 but that was out of the main storyline... not that the main storyline is exactly straight in terms of time and continuity, but, nyah. So rather than throwing in another flashback or side story to pass time, I just put that tag at the top of this page. I’d say it took maybe a few days or something to hatch. I still liked the idea of Kiki and/or Emma cuddling the egg while watching TV and some more suspense in general, but as said, this could be dragged out for ages due to my current ‘one comic per month’ approach. In case you were wondering, no one gave any PayPal donations after the last comic. Random things of note: * Kiki and Marc’s clothes have changed as days have passed. * The house does not have a cat but a leftover (or newly bought) kitty-litter tray is being used to hold some bedding for the egg. * The lamp being used to keep the egg warm is based on one I really own at home. * I now personally think that this image of Kuro (with a frying pan) should have been swapped with the last image of him two comics ago, for better effect. Ah well. * Cute spabbit is cute! I still don’t think I’ll ever top the drawing of him I did on the profile page though. Do you think his first squeak is asking Kiki if she’s his mommy?Stuff and things The weather can’t make its mind up, chilling winds and pouring with rain, or bright and hot clear sunny days. May is going to be a busy month, I’m going to be all over the place, visiting far-off friends on certain weekends, taking tests, going on a ‘team leader’ course at work… June is already starting to get booked up, no wonder it feels like the year is flying by already. Last weekend’s Free Comic Book Day and general hangout was fun even if illness befell some of our number. I’m doing what I can to chill-out lately, as I keep getting ill myself and generally slip into the old routine of excessively stressing and not sleeping well. Getting back to making time to play some games isn’t overly ‘productive’ but it is a lot of fun and makes for some nice escapism. ‘FF:CC:Ring of Fates’ on the DS does this well, and so does the excellent ‘Mario Kart Wii’. At one point Chibi-Kiki and me were playing against Ven and Fish (on wifi) while using Skype to communicate. It worked rather well actually and was a lot of fun. Then I beat the French :p Current track: Mindless Self Indulgence - Shut Me Up Current anime: Phantom Quest Corp
