I notice a lot of your characters (including these thumbnail ones) have a lil rod piercing! Any particular inspiration for that or just a fashion choice you like?

Not a ton of inspiration. I just think they look cute on big floppy ears.

A good question, I haven't really thought about it before, but let's see.

For "Deery" I would have to say she'd like Pink Camellia flowers.

For Princess Bunelope I'd say sunflowers. They'd easily be her favorite flower to snack on.

For Miss Fox, I'd say hers is an Acanthus plant. They're a pretty and tall elegant looking flower.

Recently I've been struggling a lot with DO NOT FILE. Originally it was going to be just a goofy short little quest, but here I am. 7 months later still chipping away at it and feeling like I've lost my direction or goal with it. Pondering for awhile, I thought it might be best if I asked for some help and feedback.

So...for all the current readers who found their way to the dis-thread:

How do you feel my current quests (Perished, DO NOT FILE) could be improved?
What keeps you interested and coming back for the next update?
Are they as enjoyable as when they first started?
What do you feel some of the high or low points of them has been?

Thanks for reading and your continued support, I look forward to reading what suggestions and feedback you have to share.

My advice is that you need to set something up that keeps posters thinking about the quest. Some kind of complex gameplay or deeper mystery to keep us motivated.

Do not file is fun but it became... repetitive. We get it, we're in the representation of a 1990's home computer operating system, so every reference became predictable.
Do you personally know some obscure trivia about operating systems that most of us would be ignorant of? You can try that.

My only preference is that you don't leave us hanging. Keep going or finish the quest, just try not to let it go into the graveyard.

My advice is don't worry about it too much. Your quests are fun and your art is cute. If anything I'd advise you not to drift so much from the original idea behind the quest. Like in Perished she ought to be defending her farm, unless your point of this quest is how farmers get screwed by occupying forces, regardless of their allegience. In which case it's almost over and going to be very memorable and tragic. But otherwise just have her doing things to get the bunnies and the squirrels and the foxes away from her farm, whether they like it or not.

In DO NOT FILE, it's cool how they're sort of overlapping between the computer and reality. Maybe the office is actually kind of the bad guys, and something bad blows up in their faces, leaving our hero at the mercy of the hackers? Like that do-not-file file causes a... a blue screen of death or something, to prevent it from being filed because it's important evidence in some trial to take the company down?

Behind closed open eyelids:

A short story featuring Lana after the events of Behind Locked Bars.

It’s my first night back home after the bar incident. Had to stay in the hospital for a few days to let my leg recover and answer questions about what happened that night. Leg's still not fully healed. They gave me quite a few stitches.

I thought I’d feel safer back home, but I don’t. I keep tossing and turning in bed thinking about the hostage situation. All I can think about is Kaari screaming for help, the band being tortured all night, waking up locked in the freezer after drinking-

No. The drinks we had were spiked. There wasn’t anything I could do to know they were tampered with. I was not some careless drunk that passed out and let this happen.

But I shouldn’t have been drinking! Kaari lost her license. I was supposed to be the designated driver! What was I thinking! I- ugh…

I sit up and take a deep breath. If I keep thinking like this, I’m never going to fall asleep.

I take another few deep breaths. Maybe some hot tea will help me relax?

I get out of bed and shuffle over to the microwave. I squint at the cupboard as the nightlight shines in my face. I find my favorite tea cup and fill it up with water. I push the button to open the door. The cup tinks and clunks as I set it down inside. The microwave beep beep beeps as I type in how long I want to go for. Just a minute and twenty-five seconds like always. Gives me that sweet spot temperature of just right.

The warm yellow light and the “mmmmmmmmmmmmm” sound of the microwave going gets me purring. I pace around the kitchen while I wait for it to finish heating up. Out of habit, I stop and open the microwave’s door right at the last second. Hate those loud beeps it blares when it's finished.

I grab my hot teacup and place it on the counter. I dig out the container of tea bags and start dipping it in my cup. Bobbing it up and down. Playing a bit with the little cardboard tag on the string. Folding up the corners and then folding it in half. Once I see it’s that perfect shade of brown, I know it’s done.

With a teacup in paw, it’s time to get cozy. Heading for the living room, I click the lamp on to the dim setting, grab a cozy blanket, and cover up. The sweet aroma of tea brushes up against my nose, and I reach out for the cup. I take a small sip and savor it. The warm liquid going down my throat feels nice.

It’s funny how this couch can be more comfortable than my own bed. Soft, plush cushions. Warm and cozy blanket. Hot cup of tea. I close my eyes and take a bigger sip. The soothing warmth always feels good as it goes down.

I let out a yawn and can feel myself nodding off. I take one more sip tea before readjusting on the couch to lay down. I close my eyes, and start feeling more relaxed. Snug and warm, safe back home. Maybe someday soon, this could be me and Kaari together…

The end and sweet dreams.

Crosstheline has been doing an sketchless inktober challenge this month, and to end it off he's drawn a cute picture of Davy from Grown Alone!

Happy Halloween everyone!
