He almost certainly learned Peridot's by reading it and I do have to wonder why he did and from what.

There's no way he doesn't. Check NK's reaction every time Pancetta appears on screen or Peridot brings them up. Or now, even.

Also, this update really made me happy.

Nope! I'm also beyond tickled that Peridot is 110% on board with this.

"Go on until you're stopped."
Bacon still self-introduces as "Bacon" so they are probably still a he, with a promising career in traditionally-female roles.

We don't talk about Bacon? Oh, but soon, everybody on Dreamside will be talking about Bacon.

We're living in the Bacon future.

Anyone have a link to the part of the comic they're talking about? I have vague memories but I want to refresh them.

The play subplot starts around here, with here being when Bacon shows up looking fabulous. A few pages after that is when Peridot "accidentally" saves Almond and then flies off embarrassed.

vv Edit yeah, all that, haha.

Okay, what's NK's problem here? I thought the whole reason why he crashed the studio was because he thought the Pumice NK was mocking him?

I'm pretty sure he's just taken aback because he didn't consider the possibility that the NK character on the show could benefit him in any way. Gary's performance being considered too scary for Pumice means that it's actually helping out the reputation that sustains his powers.

yes, but it's also causing people to be scared of him, even if they're kids.

Also he totally should have crashed the studio during the actual show, pretty sure kids would have been scarred for life by Gary

Bite my furry metal ass
Yeah, he was concerned that people would find the portrayal of him in Pumice laughable because (presumably) he needs Dreamside to fear his memory on account of him not being willing to do anything substantive that might instill new fear, nor follow through with any material threats. Exactly why he needs to be feared is something we still don't really know. Probably something to do with keeping Steve down, but :iiam:

The fact that people think TV NK is too scary kinda moots the whole point of this little mission.
