Is there anything here I can swing from?

I'm hoping Nautilus gets the fire instruments as her next summon.

And air ballon.

I picture Nautilus trying to replace her shell phone and get more summons and being required to sign a two-year contract or something.

Nope. Jerkface decided to <strike>save on tuition</strike> send him on a quest to save Dreamside, remember?

To be honest, it seems a little bit like GG just went 'oh poo poo, I forgot to give her any personality' and went a bit too overboard.

That said, I hope we see more of her, since that face is pure gold.

I dunno, it seems like a perfectly logical blend of her parents' personality. She's normally more like Dad but

Well

Yeah. There's the Mom in her.

The clue is in her name. The instrument you know as a piano was once called a pianoforte, because it can play both loud and quiet notes. The princess has inherited her fathers stoicism and her mother's loud outbursts, making for a mercurial personality.

Also goddamn Cucumber Quest is really on a roll lately, it's always been good but basically since Bacon showed up at the play it's been amazing.

Pianoforte literally means "soft-loud" in Italian! THE PIANO IS THE SOFT PART, AND PIANO IS USUALLY PRETTY QUIET.

Haha, Piano is kind of a jerk.

Or maybe she's just not used to being able to let down her princessly facade. She did seem to relax a lot once she realised Carrot was already involved with royalty.

So she's normally soft, but it's still short for "soft-loud". AND NOW WE'RE SHOUTING.

I missed that "two other good webcomics on the Internet" thing a few pages ago but I just wanted to pop in and say everyone should be reading Brawl in the Family and Gunshow. Both are awesome.

Also Piano is pretty great.

It doesn't help that I don't really care for Graveyard Quest at all and KC often sidelines the comic for a couple months at a time to do it.

I actually really like graveyard quest...but it is pretty obvious that he originally wrote it intending for it to be the plot of a video game (which he has said himself is the case).

Because as one of Gigidigi's Indifferent Authority Figure characters, she can never show any kind of patience or sympathy towards the main characters.

Dream Oracle is rapidly pushing the A button because she's replayed Cucumber Quest for the billionth time and want to get past the dialogue to return to the gameplay.

In an alternate universe the Dream Oracle will probably say no and tell Nautilus to pull up her bootstraps and blah blah blah...

However in this universe, the DO knows that would only end with a blue smear spread all across dreamside Nautilus is too adorable and valuable to hamper her ability to summon.
