I see that Maren is going to be 'weighted down' for awhile, not to mention she will have to clean Raine's drool off of her clothes. :mrgrin: By the way, is that a snot bubble coming out of Nibbly's nose? :P

Looks like Mrs. Nibbly is catching a cold.

She is blowing nose-bubbles.
If it moves but shouldn't: Duct tape. If it doesn't move but should: WD-40. With a hammer everything fits, and if it still doesn't fit: bigger hammer. If it can't be fixed with a hammer it's an electrical problem.

Also, 1st april special removed?! Wouldn't it be better if it stays in archive like Christmas special pages?
im also a bit confused why he retconed the april fools joke. Ik he has had problems in the past with fans getting mad (because actually comic doesn't progress when he is working on jokes), but overall it seemed like the community was supportive this time of him having fun.

Sleepy floof! It's been a long day for them.
And Sythe has some highly-defined hi-def abs, I'm sure the lighting wasn't done on purpose :wink:
Who even looks at signatures anyways?

Well, by definition the april fools strips aren't canon, so there's no 'retconning' them because they never were canon in the first place. As for adding them to the archive or not, I'm guessing that after the 2014 thing he's leaving them out of the archive to avoid confusion. The 2014 one at least was quite understandably removed after how crazily the whole thing blew up, but while he didn't do a 2015 april fools, the 2016 one (which was, like this year's, not particularly objected to by the community) was also not put into the archive. If the pattern holds he'll probably put this year's on his deviantart at some point.

He only really had that problem one time, when the April Fools joke ran for several updates (which are not exactly frequent) and took the comic in a rather different direction, and during that period he explicitly denied it was an April Fools joke. Then revealed that it actually was.

A one-page April Fools joke, explicitly labeled as such at the end... no problem. Even in the archive.

There may be no action or anything special but seeing characters we like take a deserved break always feels heart-warming (at least for me). And those two really deserved it.

(And it seems Tom really likes playing with ships. Will have to call him "captain".)

Well, not by me, that is ^^

BadJoke, I'll just ask this now: is that why your screen name is what it is? Because you like telling bad jokes?
Maeve is so cute, they're thinking of renaming the Pokémon Ability known as Cute Charm, so it becomes "Maeve Charm."

I am not so sure, i envision that she struggles at first a little bit longer and then starts liking having Raines head on her lap.
This could get to be a good therapie session for both....
Just an average internet user and :natani: & :raine: fan

My head is full of ideas, but i cant get them on paper - Please brain start thinking about important stuff.

I think the real question is weather Rain will ever change back...

I mean, shes never fully been able to turn human at all without magic. I'm starting to wonder if she will just end up going through life as this.

Well, as soon as they feel comfortable with taking that magic-suppressing bracelet off of Zen, Raine can put it on. It's what has kept her in human form in the past ... to the point that she spontaneously changed to keidran when it was opened, and changed back when it was closed - on a table a few feet from her.

(It doesn't work the same way on her NOW because after it was damaged and she repaired the rune, it was applied to Zen. Not her.)
