Ben: *reaches out and puts his hand on Zeb’s shoulder* Are you alright? You’re not in trouble, are you?
Zeb: I don’t know… *grits his teeth* He could have killed me today. But he didn’t. And part of me wonders for what purpose.
Ben: He? Who? Zemus?
Zeb: The dragon.
Ben: Dragon? The dragon is… *pauses* Dad…?
Zeb: You already asked that.
Ben: *swallows* Just… making sure.
First of all, Happy Birthday to Tai!
Next, here’s some commentary for this page:

Lastly, I invite folks to stop by my main Tumblr page. There’s been a lot of fun question and answer including talk about Nefolian/Lunar music influences (with some nice Celtic music to listen to), Zemi’s current relationships with Wayrift figments, character development and such. Some fun spoiler stuff that folks may like. ^_~
Comments and conversation are always welcome there. As are more questions! Enjoy!

Oh, and I’m going to try to LiveStream some tomorrow and color paint the frame I inked on the previous LiveStream. Have no idea what time, but if you check in, you might catch me. Probably early afternoonish around Noon or 1 EST.

TAI! Now I have to draw a birthday deviation for him! *spazzes*
I love how Zeb looks in your new style. I don’t know. I guess he just looks so mature… at the same time, he acts immature. XP But he has issues, and I feel bad for him.
Give Luv:

Yo Shorty… it’s your birthday… Mweh heh heh… funny how all those hundreds of candles have done nothing for your height.
Well luved! Give More?

Grrrr! Do I get to give you a birthday BASH as my present this year? |: o

You two are so funny to watch, sometimes. I’ll avoid from mentioning any comparisons, however, to avoid uniting you against me.
Give Luv:

Comparisons? You stuck your foot in it. Now you gotta talk.
Give Luv:

What if there really aren’t any comparisons?
Give Luv:

Ummmm… maybe I’ll go with Max’s explanation… or maybe I’ll make up some more flattering ones…
Give Luv:
2
Yeah, go with my explanation. It will save you some trouble or either get me killed by Tai. Either way, it will have some hilarious result…
If that makes sense.
Give Luv:
2
Well, you could always say they’re both tall dark and handsome?that’d be both a compliment and a comparison? -snickers-
Give Luv:
3
Yeah, that sound about right. We’ll go with that.
Give Luv:

No you get B-day *hugs* though ;3 . Glad to see you one year older Tai. Hopefully we will see you in the comic soon ^_^
Give Luv:

I think I have the perfect gift for you, Tai. it’s a Zeb-doll that makes a whimpering sound each time an insult is thrown it’s way. I just… havent exactly invented it yet.
Give Luv:

You two amuse me.
Give Luv:

But Tai /is/ tall … For a Nefolian. XP

Only problem with this page… My eyes want to connect Ben’s hand in the first panel with his shoulder in the second panel, and that just… doesn’t work.
Give Luv:

Optical illusion!
No, but I see what you’re saying. Ah well. Bad placement happens sometimes. : <

Yeah, and I’m not sure what you could’ve done differently… it just took me a couple looks at it to figure out that my eyes were trying to play tricks on me.

Now that you mention it. I didnt even notice they were two separate frames.

Yay! Happy birthday Tai!
I guess it would be rude to ask how many candles are on the cake, wouldn’t it?
Oh, I get it. Not rude but dangerous. So, nevermind – I’ve never asked.
Give Luv:

I like, how Zeb desperately hugs trees, but when it get to human contact, he’s all “no touching”
He craves for it, but he can’t stand it, it seems.
Ben, next time you can try tree costume, when consolating him
Well luved! Give More?

Happy Birthday Tai! It must be a lotta candles by now!
My friend once put a whole box (not one of those little 8-candle sets, a whole box of 30 colored-flamed ones) on a cake. It was a giant rainbow fireball
Gladly, there were no fire alarms, but it took forever to blow out.

I know you can’t always do this but I love the coloring. Believe I know it take far longer to complete a page when you color. Nice work!
Give Luv:

Thank you! The idea is to continue to paint in color for good. As long as we have the time to, we’re going to keep with it.

Happy Birthday you Woolly-footed Slowcoach!
**gives him a potion to make him 15′ tall so as to give him a chance to make Zeb run**
Enjoy!
Give Luv:
2
Do Tai really need a poiton to make Zeb run? Methinks not.
Taping into his real strength is far enough to make anybody run.
Give Luv:
3
Except Tai doesn’t like utilizing those…certain skills…very much it seems. Look at his reaction to what happened to Zip **shudder**.
Tai’s a good hobbitish man. And Zeb needs to be put in his place about him. A good fright from a 15′ giant Tai holding that scythe should allow Tai to enjoy a fun advantage he’s never had before.
Give Luv:
2
I really don’t think he needs either marked form or some size enhancing potion. All it takes for him to make Zeb scream like a little girl is one well aimed headbutt…
Give Luv:
2
I agree with you, Ajisiva.
Even the threat of that power would be enough to scare me.
Of course, Zeb isn’t exactly Mr. Average, either…
Give Luv:
2
Wait a sec. What have I done to anyone here to warrent running and screaming? I’m a gentleman and do not harm ladies. For the guys… just don’t get in my way and you’ll be alright.
I like birthdays and birthday cakes. Thank you for the wishes.
…that’s all I wanted to say. *coughs, takes his birthday offerings and tromps off with a slight smile*

Yeah, I noticed. Is that Cecil? With Crystal?? Or am I completely crazy?
Give Luv:

It is Cecil with a crystal. It’s a frame from an upcoming Wayrift page and I just liked how it came out. Thought it could be new-banner worthy. I’ve been meaning to get a new banner up there sometime…
Give Luv:
1
But I like Ben! (Sorry, Cecil)
Give Luv:
2
I know. That’s just the first banner I made. If I find other frames that might fit a banner format, I’ll add them later. Apparently this theme allows for rotating banners (have to play with that).
Give Luv:

It’s just – Cecil has his Crystal sword, bud seeing him with another crystal is weird. Be it Ben, Zeb, Aiden, even Zemi – but Cecil…
Well, it’s scene from story ahead of us, probably another elemental crystal he’s trying to protect, so I can understand it
Give Luv:
1
Actually, it’s a flashback scene to when Cecil used the Crystal against Zeromus in the final battle on the Moon.
Give Luv:
2
Oh, yes, that is going to be a sweet flashback. Particularly after doing all that reading of Dreigiau and Shimmer…

It’s gonna be more like a few frames of narrated flashback. Not a full thing or anything. ^^;

Duuuh!
Now I’m an antagonist here ;(
I stole tomorows page today! Um, yes, it’s nearly midnight here, but…
My bad, my bad, it won’t happen again, I promise! Sorry, sorry, don’t beat me, I’ll be good!!

How did you steal tomorrow’s page? : o

Well, you know, it’s not really difficult, when the picture is allready on site. But I don’t want to give ideas to others…
Let’s just say I’m used to mess around with URL addresses
Give Luv:

I wondered when someone might do that. My fault for uploading all the images ahead of time, I guess. :p
Give Luv:

I guess it’s more convenient that way.
It’s my fault for even trying. I don’t know what got into me, now I don’t have anything to look forward to ;(
It’s allready midnight, I’m going to bed – with bad conscience and with fear of nightmares about hungry Aiden!
Give Luv:

Don’t feel so bad! *hugs* I’ll just move them off the server and upload them on the night of the update instead. I know I’d be tempted to look, too, if I figured out how.
