GAH SO thank you to everyone if you subbed to the Tapas mirror to help me hit that subscriber threshold, but in fact a super helpful reader of mine over there told me how to hack the system and get that feature unlocked early! (By hacking I mean I just emailed a member of the support team)
The Inksgiving event ends tonight! If you read this in time, please consider supporting the comic by donating Tapas’ in-game currency, “ink.” You can earn ink for free by watching videos and other dumb advertising things, so if you have a little time, please consider getting your hands on some ink and donating to the comic. Expect some kind of thank-you doodle afterwards to express my gratitude :)
Onwards to the commentary I wrote for this page a week ago…
Mary talking to herself here can be interpreted a few different ways. She could ACTUALLY be talking to herself out loud, or this is just her internal thoughts being spoken for the audience, much like a soliloquy in a stage play or something. (Or she’s just talking to the poster the whole time lol)
For some reason I find internal monologue to be kind of clunky to write, especially since this comic in particular has a small cast of POV characters instead of just one. So if you just suddenly get the internal thoughts of a character that you aren’t used to hearing thoughts from, it can seem jarring. Or maybe that’s just me. Might just be me. But anyway, that’s how I chose to write this section, and now you know why.
It’s just you…..
You don’t read a lot of comics though :P
*bangs head on desk* just how oblivious can one girl be? come on, mary, wake up! you already know that there are exorcising demon killers out there, now use that thing inside your head and think!!
She’s not used to life being full of scary things like exorcising demon killers!
Social engineering is a valid method of hacking.
You know, that’s true.
