I'm wondering how many of these were on Gigi's drawing/writing board before she realized "What have I done" and started over.

She probably made it to 'Landmaster!' before realizing she was wildly off track now.

I'm pretty sure gigidigi explicitly said that Peridot has a crush on Almond like 6+ months ago. Just in case it wasn't already obvious enough

e:
She added it to her FAQ because apparently people were not grasping it.

Luminous Obscurity posted:

I'm not sure what's funnier, the people who don't get Peridot is crushing on Almond or the people who were like "Oh no, Piano's just blushing 'cause she's embarrassed to be sending a letter."

I'm one of the incredibly dense people who wouldn't have realized that Peridot has a crush on Almond if it wasn't literally spelled out by other people in this thread [I also didn't notice that Peridot was disguising herself as Marigold either until that was outright said here too. :downs:] but even I got what they were going for with Piano sending a letter to Princess Ametrine.

Select one (1):

A. Almond holds onto the crocus instead of giving it to Cucumber even though she doesn't use magic and its effect is wasted on her
B. Almond gives the crocus to Peridot as a sign of ~friendship~ and/or because she likes a challenge
C. Almond gives the crocus directly to the Disaster Masters because she likes a challenge

I'll fess up, I have no clue what's going on. :v:

All I've managed to piece together is that Nautilus, Caboodle, and Peridot don't have flowers and no one can remember who they are. I guess it sorta works on Paper Mario TTYD logic only their name also has to be named after a flower?

Peridot petrified the roots of Rosemaster's plant so that shattered the entire thing but otherwise I'm totally lost.

So, uh, don't worry you're not the only one.

Is this a flashback or somthing?

Rosemaster is transforming to her next form and this little aside is happening somewhere. In her mind, in the crocus, I don't know but her and Glitchmaster are having a conversation while she transforms.

Anyway, are we still going to keep doing this song and dance of no one linking the newest page when it comes up?

I don't know, the conversation about how she looks kinda leads into what she looks like now?

From earlier on, it looks like it's in the future because she remarks on how Glitchmaster would've just killed him.

I'm hinging that on 'him' being Carrot and not NK though.

I dunno if it's because of the update schedule, or if the pacing is genuinely off. I mean, reading it all at once would be a different experience than waiting for updates. That is a problem with the whole updating format.

No one likes waiting for things, that has not changed from being seven. Having to wait a week for another anything agitates people, whether it's another page of a webcomic, a new episode of hit TV Drama Breaking Bad, or just for your dinner to be made even though you've been sitting here for an hour and there are new people coming in and leaving and godammit what is taking so long!?.

Bad things happen when you require people to be patient.

"For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is Rosemaster? This is Rosemaster speaking. I am the woman who loves her life. I am the woman who does not sacrifice her love or her values. I am the woman who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are perishing-you who dread knowledge -I am the woman who will now tell you.”

At the very least the art will always be cute to look at so that's always a plus with Cucumber Quest.

'Thing at least looks good' is like, the mildest of the mild compliment that could possibly exist. And I say that for all media: comics, videogames, movies 'At least it looks decent' is the barest of compliments you could give something.

Renaissance Robot posted:

Even if I'd been archive binging I'd have struggled to get this one I think, that scene was ages ago. At the time I thought Cucumber was dissembling because he felt a little guilty about basically stealing the wand (even though he stole it from a thief, because he's what, like nine??? And maybe not likely to automatically justify that as okay), and then he gets called away and that's it.

I didn't twig that he genuinely couldn't remember.

See, I thought it was just memory bullshit on all counts so beyond 'I'm Cucumber' he couldn't remember anything. I haven't been archive binging so stuff escapes my thoughts in general here.

Considering that it was all put up at once so I didn't have to wait for some unknown date in the future to read the entire thing, I have no real complaints about it. It was cute, sweet and a bit sad at the end.

And also super gay, like, really gay, there's gay oozing out of my monitor it was so gay. It rules.
