no updates for a while because my wrist isn't working right!

luckily it's not too bad but obviously if i keep aggravating it it'll only get worse, so i have to take a break from drawing for a while! i'm already incomprehensibly bored just thinking about it 😔 one up-side is that i get to work on the script more than i'd usually get to. small blessings

i don't really know when i'll be back is the thing. i'm hoping it won't take more than a month to clear up, and when i suddenly respawn in your living room with a new update, you can shout "hooray! but isn't this breaking and entering?"

if you get sad and start missing me, you can check in on me on the tssb askblog ( ask-tssb.tumblr.com/ ) where luckily i don't HAVE to draw anything to keep running it! it's criminally understimulated and so am i so by all means please do poke the bear with a stick and i promise i won't bite (too hard)

Well, I hope your wrist gets better soon. I tried out the comic and did the first few pages. My biggest gripe is the layout of the site and how you get to different chapters/pages. It was really clumsy for me to navigate. 

Edit. I got to the last chapter and I really like it. The storyline feels well composed and the characters seem like real people with struggles and flaws. I found some of the other places it is posted and prefer http://thestarsshinebright.thecomicseries.com/comics/275 over smackjeeves.

oh yeah, yeah that reminds me that i should update the OP to reflect that that's my new website. smackjeeves sold out to a different company and made it into that mess you saw. the comic fury site is what it USED to look like on SJ!

i'm glad you liked it! the good news is that i don't have carpel tunnel, but now it's a matter of a waiting game for my wrist to fully heal. in the meantime, i do have some extra content...

 

Character Profile: Myu

de5h93l-16d1d265-df71-42f4-b0ad-3aeec3e2

so obviously this is not an update, but i'd like to keep up on my activity in ways that i can while my wrist heals, and i thought little character profiles with a little more info than i've explicitly offered in one place about them would be a nice way to tide yall over. i won't have an exact schedule for posting extra content like this, but i hope to have something fairly often until i start updating again. for more information, or to talk to Myu about what you see here, follow the link under the bios ❤️
-------------


Myu is the daughter of Clara and a braixen named Malachi Burnell. She is unaware of the reasons that her father decided to leave, and like her mother, she does not have a legal last name. She was born in, and lived out her childhood in a small forest two hours away from Dynamene City, always yearning for a faster-paced life than the one of plant-tending she was brought into. From a young age, her mother taught her about the stars and constellations, her favorite myth about the heavens being "Imperial Topaz, the Dragon"; this sparked a minor interest in rock collecting, and eventually the inspiration for her sister's name, Topaz. Though anxious and not well-socialized, her dream is to see more of the world, and all of the magical environments within it, as she also has an interest in the way magic manifests in nature. Myu hopes to live up to her mother, and plans to teach Topaz everything Clara taught her.

 

 

Character Profile: Atticus

de5jmd1-c7d91952-fe6c-4d35-a67f-3efe77b4

Atticus Lambda Stone is the synthetically-made son of Dr. Roxanne Stone and Dr. Steven Collins, two scientists who work for the Dynamene City Research Facility. He is made of five main genetic components: Suicune, salamence, pyroar, sawsbuck, and whiscash, combined in an attempt to create a purely dragon-type suicune. Without many opportunities to leave the house, he was mainly homeschooled when Roxanne had time. He didn't develop any direct hobbies outside of watching TV, but he loves karaoke. He admires his parents' sense of style, enjoying the times Steven would share a pieces of music she liked, or when Roxanne would tell a groan-worthy joke. Currently, he's glad to be out of the house, but he feels a bit lost without his parents around...

 

Today (it's still the 21st in my timezone) is also his birthday, and he DOES remember the 21st night of September! An additional fact is that he sings that song every year on his birthday -- loudly, to Steven's chagrin.

also i uh, noticed that tj's little forum software update wiped out all the old pages which had gone blurry on the post for some reason. they were ugly so maybe it's for the best, but it's doubly inconvenient, so here' the reminder that you can catch up on the comic, or revisit your favorite old pages, on my home site over on comic fury
