Sorry, Cain... I don't like drawing you in that much pain, either. (I think.)

See you guys on Friday!

Awwww....

They made up (I think).

(...and here I was hoping a bit of insight in that Danrir-Kijin conflict)

So, poor Cain has a flashback - I hope we will eventually learn what he did to deserve the chains and why his brother hates him so much...

A new equilibrium for now!~ :)

The Danrir-Kijin conflict will take some time to dip into, so it won't be done in this chapter. :) But in a future chapter, yes!

But regarding Cain's situation, it'll be explained before the end of this chapter. ;)

Gerdenget, rufi! Why would you hurt Cain like this?

More importantly, the last few panels have once again prevented me from continuing a perfectly good Disney song!
(Seriously though, y u hurt widdle Cain? :<)

Because I am a terribly sadistic person >__> bwaaahahahahaha! (this is maybe 10% true)

Sorry to interrupt your Disney moments XD;;; *sigh* Cain, put off your off-putting flashbacks for a couple of panels next time, will you?

Ow... poor Cain in so much pain :( What did you do Cain? It is really hard to imagine that he could've done something to deserve those things that happened to him :/ He's soo nice...

Aaaah I'm sorry I'm sorry!! OTL;;; XP

Cain is... a complicated creature. XD; As Isaac says, he is a walking contradiction. I promise we'll unravel it all one thread at a time, though. :)

Oh boy, feeling sorry for Cain right now :O
rufiangel 23rd Oct 2014, 10:21 PM edit delete reply
rufiangel
Yeah... he's had his fair amount of trauma >_>
But he's okay now, sitting on a peaceful field of grass in his comfy inn gown :D just a bit of turmoil in his head, is all!

Woah... Poor Cain...
Rarely do I grimace when reading comics... but that made me grimace.
rufiangel 23rd Oct 2014, 10:21 PM edit delete reply
rufiangel
That makes me simultaneously (perversely) proud and yet extremely apologetic, to all parties involved. XD;;;;;

Yaay! Friendship!
And...Oh, jeez, the flashback, poor Cain!
Love the effect though in those panels!

This strip seems to have been such an abrupt change in tone, I have confused many XD;;; I'm sorry!
And thank you - I had fun making everything fuzzy with the textures and effects with the flashback scene XD

Thoughts while reading this strip:
Yay! Nemi, are you flirting? (^_^)
Did they go for a walk togethe..Yikes! Cain!
rufiangel 23rd Oct 2014, 10:24 PM edit delete reply
rufiangel
Hahaha, I wonder - is she? XD;

And they didn't go on a walk together, but what people expect to happen will happen. :)

Well that's an acceptable compromise.

Oh and, uh, yeah. Cain. He really should get some clothes on.

Ahahaha, I know, right? Geez, Cain, go put on a shirt or somethin'! We have kids watching! (uh, do I?)

Sorry to cause Cain pain! >____>

Lol, at first I thought both of them going "out for a walk" was to give those two time to sort it out, but it looks like Cain needs time to sort stuff out himself... Poor guy.

rufiangel
He's had a rough time since he saw the writing on the wall XP

Buuut! You're not wrong about the the two getting some time to verbally process things a bit together. :)
Headgamer 24th Oct 2014, 8:25 AM edit delete reply

I kind of meant Cain & Kylie both "went for a walk" just to give Nemi & Mike some alone time to work it out. XD

But what you said is deff true. Cain & Kylie both need to work some stuff out too. I guess everyone dose.
rufiangel 24th Oct 2014, 5:46 PM edit delete reply
rufiangel
Ohhhh! XD; That's what you meant!
I think if they could have planned it, they might have, but neither of them knew that the other wouldn't be there, sooo... XD;

*claps hands together in prayer position* I'm sorryyyyyy!!

But don't worry, he'll feel better soon! I think. XD;

He would have a fearsome weapon indeed if he figured out a way to animate those chains (everything from a chomp chomp to Kratos is fair game). They Would still be attached to his body, but where and how He chose.
