And now that you've read that Comment I just made you're probably feeling like Rosaline did in the last panel

Hey!
Tuesday went by without an update! I updated my comic on Tuesday!
I was hoping there'd be two pages for me to Comment on today!
Speaking of my comics, you know what's kinda wrong with me?
When I see panels where there's text all over the background... if it's a one-shot picture, the text is usually a poem or journal or something significant, and I want to read it, but it's partially covered, or stretches just outside the picture. If it's a panel in a comic though, it's usually very unimportant sounding stuff (you know, since it is very unimportant stuff! ) that the writer... well, they obviously had to do some thinking to think of random wordiness to fill it with. Me, though, I'm verbose enough that I would actually have the character say legitimate stuff that actually means something all throughout the entire body of words! It's still unessential text, but my readers would try to read it anyway because they know I hide personality quirks, clues to the future, and random jokes in places and that might be one of the places.
When I see that much text, I'm usually tempted to try and read it, but in this case... well, it was clearly unnecessary. I saw it ended in humorous silliness (
)
That totally-not-hidden keyboard mashing (with skillful hammers and anvils thrown in) was funny. I just wanted to read it until it turned from mostly-legit text to that. Almost ran out of patience, but it just couldn't get boring enough to make me stop reading.
And I liked the way you handled that. That last panel, with that expression and that black space over it is win.
If I were writing something like this that was going to go from text that could be read and morph into nonsense, I would have used a long string of internet acronyms to make the rest, ending one of the panels with a nice, clear "tl;dr"
From reading all that that you wrote, I think it's clear that Rosaline Stablechair is probably in a video game world with Seraph!
A real life video game! I make my comic world like that too, but mainly for parody and less literally.
And speaking of the names of your OCs, and since you drew Eva, would it be cool if I made and posted a picture of my OCs cosplaying yours to promote your comic?

it is indeed quite obvious you can write long strings of text better than i. :U
(i knew i didn't make the font small enough.)
and drawing stuff based on my stuff? i say, sure! :T

it was supposed to be so small you couldn't read the "hammers and anvils". :0

But over 50% of the video game information is in that panel! And almost 40% of the tl;dr humor!
Anyone who isn't viewing this fullview on their phone should be able to read that text because it isn't too small for reading like the final panels

the final two panels are literally swaths of "fgh dfghfgd" anyway, so...

I like the way those fgh dfghfgd swaths have a subtle light effect with them in the final panel. One of the cooler things I've seen with text in a while.

i was aiming to use the gradient in-out to give a sense of immensity to the rant from the previous panels.
