my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

The top banner and the background both change semi-regularly to fit the scene, yeah. There's an archive of previous banners here.

e: you may have beaten me to the answer, but your hastiness ensured that I would snipe the page and obtain final victory!

A parfait is a dessert, but it is also the French word for perfect.

So I only started reading this a few weeks ago. Does that top banner change with each story arch? It never made any sense to me when I read through all ~470 pages I read up to this storyline, but it makes sense if it changed with the current story arch. That, or I got caught up at a coincidental time.

It changes. Some past ones:

Yeah, I figured that made the most sense. Since that banner didn't make any sense to me at all until last week.

Also, I choose to believe that Parfait had all the pages in the sketchbook predrawn except for the first one she displayed.
Coincidentally enough that actually came up on Twitter and Gigi crushed your hopes and dreams as if they were nerds :(

I like to think she only drew the first picture just then, and just had the rest prepared.

How can this page be topped? I'm not sure it can. I think we've peaked. I just don't see how a page could be better than this.

Aaaah. I kinda want one of those parfait drawings as an avatar, but I think it has to wait a few days.

Well, time to close the thread. I would have liked to see the rest of the plot, but we can't get better than this.

Now watch as the next page has NK being roped into the Greatest Tea Party of All Time.

How can my Nightmare Knight be this cute?

Also, my wife is convinced he is at least related to Mega Gengar, due to the stubby legs and spiky arms.

For comparison:



Unfortunately, his design has been around for a few years before Pokemon X/Y was a thing.

However, your question helped me learn something important:



So that's good!

NK's eyes are wide right now because he's surprised, but his usual squint is because he really needs glasses to see well and doesn't want to wear them because they make him look like a big dumb nerd.

When I think about it that way, it makes me wonder how he acted before he got used to doing the same thing over and over again. Did he just act like a generic evil dude or something?

What is this kid's DEAL?!

Wow. I thought I was prepared for whatever curveball GG was gonna throw at us next, but this Nightmare Knight and Parfait thing is just egregiously cute. Really curious about what happens when the script he and the Oracle are pushing gets taken too far off the rails, but I hope it doesn't happen through Cucumber burning down a town or something.

It could also be that the Nightmare Knight instead of some super evil "Binding the hero into the new NK" is literally just the last hero told by the dream oracle how Incredibly important it is to pretend to be evil, like how almond eats up the legendary hero shtick hook line and sinker.

Edit: I was trying to say less that the Nightmare night isn't even obligated into this whole being evil deal (considering he seems to be able to go off script as well) He's just being mislead? I guess the difference would be being stuck as the NK and basically being told you have to be the NK.

This would explain his efforts to do things like keep Noisemaster from doing anything actually serious.

What really is getting me is this: we could sooooort of kind of guess that this intermission would contain something along the lines of "Parfait and Nightmare Knight get to know one another better." Yes, we didn't have even the vaguest suspicions it would happen like this, but the idea at base was not an outrageous one.
The next intermission, by contrast, we are going to be walking into without the slightest loving clue of what to expect.
