Game Over

Yaaaaaay we're done

I had a lot of fun during this storyline, and found a way to keep it fun for myself via the lightning round, but it definitely lasted for 47 comics because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do next.

Now I have the next storyline written in its entirety, and I'm ready to do that. It will be significantly shorter than 47 comics.

Ha! I knew Jay showing up automatically canonizes EGS:NP stories.

Some Ed

Unfortunately for Jay, they canonize as the skits that Jay does with them when they're in college, which really doesn't work out as a way to actually meet Tedd early. They meet when they meet, and doing skits about it later doesn't change that. But there's also the thing that all of the shenanigans they tried and will try to expedite that process will all fail, thus forming the inspiration for Jay's part of those skits once they actually do meet.

Some Ed

You sound confident the next storyline will be shorter than 47 comics. Does that mean that you've figured out the following storyline already also? (Not asking for details or even answers. Just saying, you know? The question mark at the end is merely there for social convenience.)

"There are some really strong opinions about Skyrim out there." ...Yeah. Sorry about that.

"but it definitely lasted for 47 comics because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do next" Yeah, I got that impression, too, but don't worry about it. If you gotta pump out comics every week for your entire life, you need some creative pauses. Just be prepared for some vicious violent vengeance from Writer's Block for not having gotten any attention this time. Better get that Demonic Duck ready!

Btw: What DID Jay try to canonize?

Applestone

My memory is hazy, but I think I might've read a strip of DD not being used for distraction for once in a more recent comic or something? Or something about DD not being there when needed? But I do remember his art style for DD being better than what we can see in 2007 and I remember it happening after the epic wizard vs. history teacher battle in 2009.

Wild Card

wow, this went longer than I expected the topic would go for. good way to bring it to a close.

Yeah, when Jay showed up recently during the party storyline in the canon story, she was hoping to run into Tedd. It's why she was peeved about Grace answering the door. I think she might have some kind of copy power she wants to use on him.

Applestone

Ohhhhh that's who she was. I only vaguely remembered her from the dream.

Is it time for the Return of Kitty and Felix?! One can hope.
