    Chainey’s just like “what the fuck do I tell Davey about THIS?”

      Why? “hey Davey, your brother was confronted in the night by a strange boy he knew who was concerned and looking for him. Then he started crying and kissed the boy suddenly for some reason. Then the boy comforted him.”

      Chainey doesn’t know Bastion is one of Davey’s old friends so who Baz is can’t be what your talking about. He has no reason to think anythings sketchy about the situation that I can see, so not that either. Is it that ominious laughing that could lead to something needing explaining.

      Wait I got it! Do you mean explaining that he fell asleep when he was supposed to be watching PJ? I could see that.

        Yeah, nah, the ‘falling asleep’ thing was sorta almost what I was talking about. I get that that sounded weird out of context, though!
        I was thinking more like. . .
        “Davey? Davey, don’t be mad, but I passed out trying to walk your brother home and then when I woke up he was making out with some strange guy and basically I didn’t know what to do so yeah. Um. Sorry.”

    Guys. Guys, look at the hovertext. I don’t even know what the fuck that’s all about because this is one of the most beautiful pages so far. All the pages are beautiful! But I was just thinking how this one’s super gorgeous.
    Somebody back me up on this.

        Ahh thanks guys! I have a huge issue with the stark white comparison against the darker purple frames but I couldn’t see another way out without a cheap gradient, and the white is sorta important so. Glad you like it anyway <3

          I can understand why that would cause art cringing–it causes imbalance in the composition, and might draw attention to itself before the rest of the page is read properly because it’s such a large, bright expanse in this layout, which might cast an early unsettling gloom of foreshadowing on the warm fuzzies if the page is only read once (lbr though we’re all reading it multiple times I mean just look at how cute and sweet and d’awww).

          But then, that’s also kind of how that “filter” is supposed to be. It’s NOT a happy place, not by a long shot, and it coming in all like “fuck this fuck that fuck y’all”–even going so far as to extend that to the artistic context of the page–adds another layer of discomfort for readers. Looking at the page objectively, yeah, it throws things off–but when you consider it in context with the story and what it means, the way it stands out and clashes with the mellow tones is perfect.

          I can’t think of any other way to have it set up, either–a gradient would look kinda weird, and so would having the last panel fading into it (you know, like a reverse gradient). I guess you could have something from the previous panel merge and swoop and drip into it…but then, doing that (kinda like the first time we saw this happen) would imply the warm fuzzies being were sucked up into the filter. If Owen’s not watching, that would send the wrong signals. This way is ambiguous, and leaves us all wondering what the heck is going on, so I think it looks great.

          TL;DR: that last panel is doing exactly what it should be doing, I think. Lovehate it the way we lovehate Owen, yo. <3

    Oh my god I just noticed this but the second to last panel. Bastion calls PJ peej. The only person I have seen so far in this comic call Parker Peej was Owen. Take that how you will, but I’m not sure Bastion is Bastion anymore…

    On the bright side if that is Owen, I don’t think he actually wishes PJ harm so they both should be fine. Physically. Is he gonna unload the WHOLE concept of Awares at there feat (& in Bastions case that Davey is one) or something diabolical like that.

    Or ya know it could just be scene change to what Owen’s doing right now. Far away from them.

      Well stop reading it and being an asshole. Jess is going to write her characters how she wants regardless of what you think. If you don’t like it don’t read it. If you still want to read it but don’t like homosexuals keep it yourself because you are being a jerk. simple as that. Have a nice day

      You know, I won’t even say ‘screw you’ to this butthole, other people have done that for me in far better language than I could bring myself to be able to use. But. . . I just have to say. . .
      How stupid can you possibly GET? I mean, it’s already stupid what they’re SAYING, but. . . how could you be stupid enough to MISS all the homo so far? Have they even BEEN onto shipsidered? That thing is solid rainbows. ALL OF THE HOMO! ALL OF THE ZOMBIE HOMO!
      . . .just sayin’.

    I’m not quite understanding why some people believe Chainey fell asleep. It looks more to me like he darted around the corner because he saw Bastian coming and didn’t want to be seen.
