Boss, if they make us find seven lost crystals, I'm quitting.

I'm not sure what it says about me or this comic that my first thought was not "Oh no she's being kidnapped by a bad guy!" but "I bet that's Cosmo." :v:

She's a Heroine, of course this dress has hyperspace pockets. All of her dresses have hyperspace pockets, or at least a matching hyperspace handbag if pockets aren't an option.

Almond wouldn't carry a purse. Then she might run into a situation where she'd have to put down her sword.

She wears her normal dress under the costume. That's how it works in adventure games.

Razor I just saw your av in the GKC thread and figured there must be a CQ thread and here we are!

I started reading after I watched my friend practically gushing at Gigi at TCAF this year and figured I should probably actually read it after several months of being in my queue and oh my gosh what a cute comic?

Nautilus is gonna be heartbroken she was so excited for the opera :(

I'm in love with his colour scheme. It's so gaudy that it rolls over and becomes appealing. Gigi's really amazing with colours. :allears:

(I also love his badge, I wonder if she'll ever sell it in the store?)

11:13: Despite Gio Gonzalez warning, "Never mix your sparkling juices," Bryce Harper opens another bottle of sparkling grape and mixes it with sparkling cider.

1:07: Harper walks to the 7-11 and orders an all-syrup Slurpee.

1:10-3:05: Harper has no recollection of this time. Aliens?

Well, he did just wake up Almond so he's probably pretty loud. And also maybe a bit dumb, if she did indeed pack her sword in the same hammerspace as her pillow.

I like how Noisemaster's unique speech bubbles creates the understanding that he sounds as gaudy and overwhelming as he looks. The reflection of his bright colors on the faces of the audience also call to mind the deep rhythm of a distant pop beat being an omnipresent background noise. The contrast against the warmth of the concert hall, the black silence of the stage, and especially the subdued palette of Piano ("soft"), establishes a really versatile pattern of associating colors with sounds. It even retroactively reinforces the "voices" of the king and ween.

Color and sound. Just fantastic. What talent!

I know that much; I meant the design, the rings of colors. I dunno. Maybe I'm just losing it.
