This was intentionally something the minions would do to try and stop Nanase from getting away, which is all the minions assume Nanase is trying to do.

Susan was experimenting with twenty minute power naps.
Her expectation was not to actually sleep, but to enter a state of near sleep in which she could rest her mind and body for a bit. Her understanding was it would give her more energy for the rest of the day.
It didn't take long for her mind to wander. It...

I could have skipped this comic, and it would have been okay. We'll get to see Ellen's feelings in the next comic, and it could be argued that this comic will be made redundant.

Curvy catgirls Ashley and Tedd! BUT FOR WHY?
Can vote for more than one. Poll ends when the month ends, West Coast USA time.
In this poll, ”catgirls” means cat ears and tails (and undoubtedly revealing outfits).

Sorceress George objecting to the kidnapping of a chicken!
Or something.
I wound up giving the tail a glow effect after noticing it looked like it was pointing at whoever George was expressing their objections to.

I'm shifting my work schedule around to compensate for non-comic obligations that have made proper productivity on Mondays difficult (which negatively affects the rest of the week, too).
Story and EGSNP will be unaffected, but under my new work schedule, Saturday sketchbooks might make more sense. Or not, I'll find out....

"It had to both high priority AND ridiculous!"

Related to "The Answer Is C" poll, we need at least one character! BUT WHO?

You can vote for more than one, and I will use SCIENCE! to take that information to help me decide on the perfect end of month poll (according to science).
To be clear, the poll could end up involving all three choices, be it due to SCIENCE!, or by accident.
One might ask "how do you *accidentally* draw a catgirl,...

I can't in good conscience claim this is a fancy chicken Nanase, but this is DEFINITELY a fancy bird Nanase of some sort.
Inspired, however, by fancy chickens in EGSNP.

After much (actually not that much) deliberation, Vladia decided against making a necktie part of her work ensemble.
Would trying it with an actual dress shirt have made a difference? Probably not. Vladia didn't want to have to deal with that many buttons anyway.

Just a reminder, Nanase's character cannot read Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs.

This is mostly a result of my sleep schedule not being as fixed as I was hoping for (result of things unrelated to comic, but winds up affecting it anyway).
