"Suddenly, said spirit appeared beside her. The sweet voice of the spirit stabbed into her ears. It sounded like her mother's, manipulating Little Red Riding Hood with her honey-coated words. Little one, you broke your promise. Little one, you broke my heart! Would you come closer for a hug, so mother could forgive you for your childishness?" Five: Notice "When little red reached for a hug, she could scarcely recognize her mother. "Mother! Your voice sounds so odd. Is something the matter?" - She asked. "Oh, I just have touch of a cold." - Squeaked the spirit, adding a cough at the end to prove the point. "But mother! What mesmerizing eyes you have!" - Said little red as she edged closer to the spirit's widespread arms. "All the better…

Nino: Say “THE SEA” as loud as possible.

24-Oct-2018

You nearly say "THE SEA" as loud as humanly possible, but then you almost instinctively pause for a split second. You feel like the universe brought you to this very spot for a better answer than that. It would want you to answer with something thematic, something more appropriate, yes... Something like... Nino: THE OCEAN Yeah. Like that. That satisfies a few unknown forces out there. Kaji: Ya- ya what now. Nino: Yes, from beyond the barrier! Nino: I woke up with no memories in the darkest place of the other side... The HORRIFIC monster world! Nino: Oh, the horrors I've suffered! I've seen it all! Nino: From chases with bloodthirsty redheaded monsters, Nino: To robberies by insane monster maids of shady monster inns, Nino: And finally, getting almost killed…

Nino: Ask why she lifted a fucking mountain

Meimona: Hm! Nice try, but I'll never believe that! Meimona: Even if he's been friendly to others, Boyfriend still loves ME. That's all that matters. Meimona: So stay away from my Bee-Eff! Nino: Screw you, you're not even a good cat owner! Nino: Boyf- I mean, the cat looks like he's suffocating whenever you hold him! Meimona: Back off, maybe he LIKES it! Nino: That's not how it works! Meimona: Why are you so hung up on Boyfriend? Meimona: I said I'd give you literally anything else in the world. Nino: Damn it. Okay, here's a deal. Meimona: If it involves me giving you Boyfriend, then forget it. Nino: No, no, just hear me out for a second. Nino: Remember the memory thing I mentioned before? Meimona: That thing that…

Nino: Wow!!! She's dressed like an anime girl but in real life!!

19-Oct-2018

You think of many things in astonishment. For one, you think this is the thief from the poster. And she looks almost like Galactic Princess Selene's rival in season 3, the plucky gentlewoman thief who somehow steals the codes to deactivate the heroine's cyborg friend, but then in a twist of fate, falls in love with the loveless cyborg, thus kickstarting a tragically boring season of side romance. Wow! Also you accidentally say "Woah" out loud and start to feel like a dumbass, because that was REALLY loud. And she notices you because of it. ...She VERY notices you, for some reason. She makes a weird noise and tosses away the tip of the mountain. Nino: hold cat closer to your chest. for protection Okay, you're out of being astonished,…

Kaji: Fly down and defeat the thief once and for all!

17-Oct-2018

...Yeah, uh. Look, there's something you need to know. You can't fly. Like, at all. Your wings are totally useless. It's a consequence of losing your halo, and all the more reason for people here to mistreat you. Haha, point and laugh at the worthless angel Kaji, whatever. But it's no big deal, flying is very overrated. You have better tricks up your sleeve! Kaji: Descend, somehow. Tricks like THIS, baby! You can still easily get around despite lacking the ability to actually use your wings! Take that, society! This is so, so, so... So, so EASY! See! You just gotta be careful while you go down! It's considerably harder than climbing, but you still did it! This will show them all. You're capable of doing anything you put your…

Five: Don't look back

14-Oct-2018

Five finds it hard to avoid doing something so simply. Nothing is behind Five, not even Ludwig. Where could Ludwig have gone? Why did Ludwig leave Five? Why does everyone leave Five? Five... Thinks that Five knows why. It must be because Five is weak. Five sits and waits for friends, always. Five never does anything herself. Friends always have to defend Five, makes Five feel like... Big weight. Big responsibility. Five doesn't like that! Five can take care of Five's own responsibility. Five will find friends on Five's own! Five: Search for Ludwig Five runs, but Five makes sure to keep quiet. Don't want to alert bad spirits. The forest reminds Five of a very old memory, from the very early days in Five's new home. Days when a…

Five: Wake up!!

12-Oct-2018

The colors disappear. Darkness. And then light. Ah, Five was having such a long dream. Five: Where are you? Five remembers! Five was running away with Ludwig down the path. Aria told Five that path is safe, so Five and Ludwig followed the path. There were mean evil spirits on the path chasing Five! It was scary, but Ludwig was a good and fast boy. Ludwig tried his best, even though he fell sometimes and was injured a little, but Ludwig could still move, so Ludwig ran and ran with Five to safety. Ludwig is a good boy. Makes Five think of dark-night tulips. Wait... Oh no. Five realized. Ludwig is not here! Ludwig was just here resting with Five, before Five went to have a long dream. Ludwig must…

Corona: AYOOO- Corona: SUP your highness, pardon the intrusion. Corona: I'm done, I AM SO done. Suvillan: Pardon granted. Suvillan: Everything alright? Corona: Pshh, I mean, strictly speaking, yeah. Corona: But not for me though! They stepped all over my fragile feelings! Corona: Like- Imagine, IMAGINE, Corona: I told them "let's hang out again" and what do they say?? Corona: They said basically a fat "NO"! To this face! Corona: I'm so fuckin' pissed! Suvillan: Oh, how brazen! Corona: Can you like, make refusing to hang out with me a federal offense? Suvillan: Your word is law, Corona, Suvillan: So technically, it already is. Corona: Sweet. Corona: I'm gonna put those goons in friend-jail next time THIS happens! Corona: Tori's all like "LEAVE ME ALOOOONE I GOT WORK", Corona: And…

Five: Dream some more.

(scroll!) Five's fun dream continues, in Five's colorful new home! Five remembers a cacophony of colors and shapes and thoughts. That time, a special visitor came. A beautiful princess who had distinct deep blue eyes that glittered like the ocean itself. She was a refined lady who donned a VERY fancy dress. Whenever Five sees her, Five thinks of hydrangea flowers. Sometimes, that princess brought a young prince-to-be with her, but not always. He was often busy with training and lessons, as is the norm for one of royal lineage. The prince-to-be reminded Five of meadow-rues. Many other visitors were there, too. Guard and friend played a strange game of kings and pawns together. The sight made Five think of a vase holding an orchid and a sunflower at once.…

Dangerous Weapon (!!!): Store self in aria's inventory

10-Oct-2018

This ridiculously big cleaver is just begging to be used. Simply holding it is making you anxious. You don't like it, but you have to have some means of self protection on you! Eeesh, in the inventory it goes - you stow it in very reluctantly. Somehow, you still hope that you'll never have to use it. Left in the secret hatch are the aforementioned coins and a note. Those coins are the usual currency of the midworlds, which means they're usable in both human and monster worlds. A large amount (in your opinion) is left here. You could break these three golds into sixty silvers, twenty each! This'll no doubt be very helpful. You remember a time where the prince desperately wanted to change from this currency to a…

Nino: Take a look around at your surroundings

07-Oct-2018

This cold, dry, and windy tundra-like environment seems to be mainly a large body of icy water with only few frozen lands here and there. Yeah, it's painfully obvious that you're no geography pro, you're just describing things as you see them. Anyway, surprisingly, there is a sign of civilization even in an odd place like this! In the distance across the icy sea is a small island with a flashy light house. You've definitely got to go there! You desperately need to make contact with actual people again, get yourself some clothes that fit this weather, and food for your growling stomach. Thankfully, before you could worry about how you'll reach the island, you notice a small boat resting nearby the land you're on. It's time to embark on…

Nino: Lament your being woefully unprepared for this cold weather.

04-Oct-2018

You suddenly realize how cold it is here, brr. Alright, guess the first thing on your to-do list now is to get something warmer! With high spirits, you decide it's time to START adventuring and-- ...Whuh? Nino: What was that? Something flashed behind you, that's what. You inspect the source. The hole you came through got closed off, it seems, which is quite weird. This surface is stone-y and cold, but just a second ago you literally went through it! Well, you guess it wasn't exactly clear how you did that, what with all the light and such. Trying to figure out how these inexplicable physics work just confuses you further and further. Something suddenly rustles behind you. Who... WHO......... WHO GOES THERE? You hastily put your mind in attack…

Nino: Get your bearings and survey your surroundings

29-Sep-2018

WOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH- It's snowing! There's so much of it!! And it's so... Bright? You don't know what just happened, but this is very much a welcome change to you. Where in heck could you be now?

Kotori: Wait, what?

Suvillan: Thanks to you, the annoying buzzing is all gone! Suvillan: My head is so clear, I can safely say that there is not a single human about, indeed! Suvillan: Ahh, it's good to hear myself think again. Suvillan: It's aaaall thanks to you! Good, good job! Kotori: ... Kotori: T... Kotori: Go with it, oh gosh, go with it! Kotori: Th-hank you, y-your highness? Suvillan: You don't have to be so humble about it! Suvillan: You proved yourself most capable. Suvillan: Hold your head high and be proud! Solis: Your highness, I figure it was too much for her, after all. Corona: Yeaaah, shit was REAL ugly, your highness!! Kotori: O-oh, yes! I uh... Kotori: It was ugly but I-I managed, somehow. Suvillan: Oh my, I see. Lord knows…

{S} Nino: Proceed.

Here you are. This place again. It's the coward's way out for you. You've had many chances to do what you should have, yet you messed them all up. You fully know that, and you're fully prepared for the temporary consequences. Or at least, that's what you force yourself to believe. Whatever happens, happens... Right? That's what you told them, and it's what you tell yourself now. Whatever happens, happens. Whatever happens, happens. Whatever happens, happens, you chant it repeatedly in your head. This is but a small inconvenience in the grand scheme of things, nothing you can't deal with! You just have to power through it, and whatever happens, happens. And whatever it is, it will be fixable. It's okay. It's okay. You'll fix it all. Kotori: Enter. Kotori:…

Aria: Become Human. Now-Aria: Why did you come here? You... You guess you just wanted to confirm it. It sure does feel so final, now that you're seeing it again. You stupidly did nothing useful, even up to his final moments. The whole time, he's been holding your hand and guiding you. He was protecting you. He allowed you to rely on him. But what were you? You weren't reliable in the slightest. You believed that everything will be magically fine if there was someone to push you into action, someone for you to follow. Whenever he smiled and talked, it felt like it'll all be fine, even if his decisions were reckless. And now, the burden of their conclusion fell entirely on him. It's times like this where you…

A Comic About Work

Nino: Better luck with that OTHER sign, maybe?

18-Sep-2018

Uh, maybe. You sure do hope so, since there seems to be nothing here besides these signs. Maybe this one will be helpfu- Nino: Make sure the sign is not just another illusion. No, no, of course not! Of COURSE this, of all things, is real and not an illusion. Oh sorry, sorry, sorry, for you so presumptuously got way ahead of yourself by expecting to find anything useful in this dump. Soooo sorry! Is this perhaps what monsters call "modern art"? Someone vomiting on a piece of paper and framing it? Actually, comparing this crap to that act is an insult to the act itself. Nino: Is there nothing more to this cave? Almost nothing. On the opposite side, there are only a couple things of note. Nino: Take…

15-Sep-2018

You fail horribly. You fail so, so horribly. -/-/-/-/-/->Nino: Run! You attempt to run, but you end up just tumbling on your back. In your panic, you hit something cold behind you. -/-/-/-/-/-/->Nino: Don't freak out, inspect the object. You fail to see how this couldn't make you freak out MORE. What the hell could be behind you now? More dead you's??? Oh that would just be DELIGHTFUL, you sure want to see your decapitated head again!!! Maybe it could be a HEADLESS BODY this time, a nice change of pace, HUH?? Or someone else's corpse, how's THAT for a twist???? OR, OR... Or... A... A Sign? ...Illusions? Nino: Woah ho ho! That's one for the books isn't it, ha ha. But you should probably just turn around and ignore…
