Fear not, I haven't forgotten about Nanase. She's going to be part of this mess, too.

I'm moving some things around with my schedule because of non-comic things going on in my life right now, and some difficulty I've had with focus this week.
If I have a milestone image this week, it'll be rushed to be done on Saturday. I don't want to do that, and I think at least a few of you would tell me not to do th...

Sarah and Grace are clearly interested in each other, but what’s the context?
Can vote for more than one.

Basically, Grace won the previous poll. She’ll be shipped with Ashley and Sarah in two separate polls at the end of the moth.
I’m not looking for suggestions, but this poll will give me some idea of what people are looking for.

Rhoda, only five feet tall to begin with, had an exaggerated sense of scale of top of it. People who were bigger than her seemed even bigger than they actually were to her, and it could occasionally make her feel anxious.
So when she found herself in line behind Conan, an unusually muscular man who was nearly six and a ...

I’m taking the next week off from posting comics and sketchbooks.
The next week of my personal life is a bit of a mess, and how complicated it will actually be is up in the air. I might have as much as 80% of my usual time to work, or I might have as low as 0%. I won’t know until very last minute.

Narrowing down even further for this month’s polls.
Top two will be involved in polls at the end of the month. Scenarios will treat the two chosen as being together, though authorial intent will be them not having left anyone they’re presently with. The intended result would be polyamory, and descriptions will...

Winning Version:
George had underestimated the slimming effects of the magic tea. Assuming their clothes would be suited well enough to both before and after, George had gotten the "leave clothes unchanged" style of magic tea.

In alphabetical order, can vote for as many as you like.
It's difficult to tell what was truly popular in a recent survey just based on "likes" (especially with later suggestions), so I selected several for this poll that I thought would have a chance of being chosen to help me narrow down end of month poll options.

Last month, I did a poll about things people might want to see in end of month polls, and non-canon pairings were a very popular option.
To clarify, "non-canon pairings" would be characters who are not dating in canon, but presumably would be acting like they were in a milestone image with them as a non-canon pairing.

In every pack of cards in the Collectible Card Game Rich and Larry played, there were bonus cards. These could be tokens for use in play, collectible art cards, shiny foil versions of cards, etc.

Magic had "not-changed" AGAIN. Not-again?
Nanase cursed the word choices of others.
Wanting to make sure her fairy doll spell still worked as expected, and in foul enough a mood to lack the patience to check her spell book, Nanase stood by her bed, closed her eyes, and cast the spell.
Even with her eyes shut...
