Man, Dex is just a freaking gold-mine of precious emotions.
Can relate though. I had one taxi-trip all by myself in my entire life, and it ended with the driver getting stopped by the police because of his ridiculous speeding.
I'll never sit in the front seat ever again.

Also, these comic pages made me check out the written story itself, cause I was curious what led up to this.
I feel this needs stating, because I can't read stories to save my life. My attention span is just nonexistant when it comes to that, so I usually avoid it outright.
So, props to you for making me read it anyway. =w=

No props to me for still not being able to do it properly. =w='

HAHA OH MAN
yeah some of them taxis take their jobs a little too seriously 8')

I'm super flattered you'd go out of your way to catch up on the written part tbh??
you probably only need to read the first and last parts to get all the context though
idk I'm a little upset with myself for starting this series as a written thing instead of going comic the whole way, cuz now anyone who joins in mid-way has to read a whole bunch of garbage to get what's going on and that's EATING ME UP INSIDE LEMME TELL YA

maybe I'll draw like a recap chapter after this one, idk just yet 8')

NekoAlodo In reply to distressed-mess [2016-05-30 18:55:37 +0000 UTC]

They seem fine...? =w=' What is this "garbage" you're talking about? Like, I just went back going through 2 more chapters and I really dunno.
Maybe they're a bit straightforward? But they're definetily not janking me out of the flow, like, constantly reminding me "oh wait, these are just words I read right now".
None of that.

But sure, ye can always go for a recap at some point. Not sure if this might still be a tiny bit too early (how many chapters are ye gonna make? =w='), but at some point, mahbeh. Can't hurt, I suppose.
And now I suddenly realize, if ye'd want to get an absurdly silly kick out of this, ye could style it like the really cliché overdone superhero comics, where it's like "LAST TIME ON !!!" "A MYSTERIOUS ENEMY UNVEILS THEMSELVES!!!!!" "TRAGEDY STRIKES!!!" "WILL THIS BREAK THEIR FRIENDSHIP?!!??" "HIS STRENGTH PUT TO THE ULTIMATE TEST!!!" "WHAT WILL YOU DO NOW, LAMPMAN????"
Yannow, basically capslock everything and add more exclamation marks.

writing's just not my thing, let me have my weird hangups, haha

LAMPMAN
I don't know why that's the part that got me but I just fuckin lost it, oh my lord
like straight out of an episode of power rangers, bad puns and over-dramatic punch lines included
I love it

Obvious follow up question: Do you have your own set of power ranger ripoffs planned into your story yet? =w=

distressed-mess In reply to NekoAlodo [2016-06-01 21:07:50 +0000 UTC]

I'll do it, too
don't tempt me

I, uh
what
a set of power ranger ripoffs
...holy shit dude that sounds incredible why am I not doing that

NekoAlodo In reply to distressed-mess [2016-06-02 16:54:33 +0000 UTC]

Because it'd be too silly for your hyper-serious story.
Also because it'd imply every big boss in your story being made out of a bunch of cardboard boxes.
So basically the best thing.

Next thing, Dex merges with some other rangers and becomes part of some giant robot to destroy some kinda city by accident. =w='

"hyper-serious"
ahaha
yeah
totally <_<;;;;

omfg it'd be like a megazord except instead of robot parts it's just people glued together
we're gettin into body horror territory with this one, eugh

NekoAlodo In reply to distressed-mess [2016-06-04 21:52:58 +0000 UTC]

Well, you seem to be into horror, so you're welcome I guess. =w='''
It's sorta like that dream I had yesterday, where I ripped my arm off and used it to draw a perfect circle on a piece of paper. And then I plugged it back in, because I was apparently an android. The metal clamp piece it was supposed to be connected to was a bit stiff, but all worked out in the end.
Oh right, this is a comment on a comic book page that isn't about androids. Uhm...

Yes, hyper-serious. It has tears and weeps and psychological drama and tangents about friendship and the meaning of life and self-worth.
And sometimes inbetween Dex is being a silly bum because wtf.

Won't stay in the car, won't wait by the door. No wonder this guy is so danger-prone. (Maybe she should get him microchipped, like a kitten, lol )

OMFG
THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA, EITHER

although from a practical standpoint I'm not sure where we're at with microchip technology
my understanding is it's like a short wave radio/rfid thing, not like gps tracking
so that probably wouldn't help much, would it ;D

CircleDreams In reply to distressed-mess [2016-04-09 02:30:23 +0000 UTC]

No, for GPS, currently, it's a small device that fits on a collar like a tag...HOWEVER, since your written world is your personal universe, that's not saying they don't have the technology THERE.

Yay! We finally get to see Val for real!
Aw, Dex is so cute.
Why does Val "always seem mad"?
And why is she driving so fast?
And why aren't they wearing seatbelts?

Haha, stay in the car.
Stay in the- No! Don't get out!
*sigh* Didn't he learn from the Emma Thorne encounter not to get out of the car?
What could possibly go wrong, you ask? Everything!

By the way, Dex's mouth goes out of his face in the third row, first panel.

Doesn't Dex know that Val has friends? Or is the Christmas Special entirely non-canon?
